Excellent!
Definitley!
Been talk for a few days and will continue to be talk. Sessions will never set up a Special Counsel or do anything else to get the investigation going. I have no faith in any part of the Federal Government. It is a trash pile.
HAve they voted yet?
And here we have CNN interviewing Jim Jordan on Comey:
Jim Jordan Calls for Comey, Lynch to be Investigated for Colluding With Hillary Clinton Campaign
Published on Jun 29, 2017
Bump
Sessions had better do something.
The charges against all three of them as listed in the letter from the Judicial committee are far, far more serious then the vague supposition about “collusion” that has allowed Mueller to set up the shockingly biased hit team and the Congress to rake the President’s family over the coals.
Will Chelsea Hubbell be called to testify in front of grim “Senators”?
Dom’t know ,...I was watching a youtube of George Webb and this on folled it.
Good, this is picking up steam.
Can we have a Military Tribunal instead?
Why not shoot for the moon?
High Treason abounds.
Joint op-ed: Time to investigate the investigators
Lima, June 22, 2017

Former FBI Director James Comey misled the American people during last year’s presidential campaign when he referred to the Clinton email scandal as a “matter,” not an investigation. He did it willfully. He did it intentionally. And he did it at the direction of Attorney General Loretta Lynch.
Mr. Comey misled the American people in the early weeks of the Trump administration by furthering the perception that President Trump was under investigation, when in fact he was not. He again did this willfully and intentionally.
Comey recently admitted that, after being fired from the FBI, he had a friend leak an internal FBI document to the New York Times detailing a conversation Comey had with President Trump. Comey testified under oath that he ordered the leak to help create public momentum for the appointment of a special counsel, which we now know is Comey’s mentor and predecessor, Robert Mueller.
The American people want justice to be blind. They want equal justice and equal protection for everyone. But Mr. Comey’s actions continue to call his impartiality, and the impartiality of the Holder and Lynch Justice departments, into question.
On May 7, 2014, the House of Representatives passed a resolution calling for a special counsel to investigate the IRS targeting of conservatives for their political beliefs. Comey and Attorney General Eric Holder blocked the appointment. This despite the fact that the lead investigator they assigned to the case, Barbara Bosserman, was a max-out contributor to President Obama’s reelection campaign.
Throughout 2015 and 2016 there were calls from Congress for a special counsel in the Clinton email scandal. Again the Justice Department refused, even after it was revealed that Attorney General Loretta Lynch met privately with Bill Clinton less than a week before the FBI interviewed Hillary Clinton. No special counsel was established, even after some unusual Justice Department immunity deals were revealed, including those designed to protect Secretary Clinton’s chief of staff Cheryl Mills, and Bryan Pagliano, who set up the email server in the first place.
This is the type of unequal justice that Americans despise. No special counsel in the IRS targeting investigation. No special counsel for the Clinton email investigation. But if it’s about protecting Mr. Comey’s reputation and hurting President Trump, then of course there has to be a special counsel.
We appreciate Mr. Mueller’s service to our country, but his past testimony as FBI director before the House Judiciary Committee did not inspire confidence about his impartiality. Just four weeks after the treasury inspector general released the report on the IRS targeting scandal and the Justice Department began their “investigation” into the matter, Mr. Mueller could not answer even the most basic questions about the investigation. He was asked: “Who is the lead agent?” “How many agents have been assigned to the case?” And, “Have any victims been interviewed?” His responses were, “I don’t know,” “I don’t know,” and “I don’t know.”
Investigating the targeting of conservatives by the IRS, which was the biggest story in the news at the time, was clearly not a priority for Mr. Mueller. As FBI director, he didn’t even know who was doing what.
But as special counsel investigating the Trump administration? You’d better believe Mr. Mueller has handpicked the exact team he wants.
James Quarles, a partner at WilmerHale, was a $10,000 contributor to House and Senate Democrats. He also has a long history of supporting Democratic presidential candidates, including Dukakis, Gore, Kerry, Obama and Clinton.
Jeannie Rhee, a senior adviser to former Attorney General Eric Holder, was an Obama and Clinton supporter. She also represented the Clinton foundation in litigation, and personally represented Hillary Clinton.
Andrew Weissmann, a former Justice Department official, was also an Obama contributor.
Elizabeth Prelogar, a former law clerk for Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Elena Kagan, donated to both the Obama and Clinton presidential campaigns.
In fact, of the dozen people named to Mueller’s investigation team so far, none have similarly supported Republican presidential candidates.
The House has a responsibility to defend the deeply-held American principle of equal justice under the law. That’s why we believe it’s time for the House to have hearings on the troubling matter of the motivation and organization of this investigation.
The past actions of Mr. Mueller and Mr. Comey as part of the Holder and Lynch justice departments call into question their impartiality. If this investigation is to be taken seriously, it is important that the American people get the answers they deserve.

These people are criminals and traitors to the Republic and should be immediately prosecuted as such.
Who? Me? Well.....I......hmmmm.....I am not sure.....
That's.......a big decision.....one that I have to.....you know.....weigh and think about.....
My feelings on Jeff Sessions have changed:
First I had Exasperation.
Then I had Disgust.
Now I have Contempt for the man.
Good start.
Time for the House and Senate Republicans to go on offense.
I’m sure the leadership will back the efforts...right Mitch, right Paul?

Except that hillary has everyone blackmailed or fearful for their lives.
Been talk for a few days and will continue to be talk. Sessions will never set up a Special Counsel or do anything else to get the investigation going. I have no faith in any part of the Federal Government. It is a trash pile.

On Jeff Sessions’ desk sits a letter received just last week and signed by most if not all of the GOP members of the House Judiciary Committee including Jim Jordan. The letter requests the appointment of a Special Council to investigate various 2016 Dem misdeeds and possible if not likely Dem collusion with the Russians. It is a long and fairly complete list. Worth reading in fact.
Sessions cannot ignore this request. He can honor it or he can reject it. I’m patient. I can wait to see what he does. If it’s a rejection I will gladly join the chorus of Sessions bashers. But I’m betting Sessions/Trump will go for it.
And, BTW, have you noticed how quiet the MSM has suddenly become on their formerly favorite subject: Trump-Russia, Trump-Russia. They realize that stirring the coals on that subject while Sessions and Trump contemplate the response to the Judiciary Committee letter would be non-productive.
The Clinton’s probably still have a copy of Sessions’
FBI file.
Cannot do anything until a new FBI director is in place. Wonder when that will happen?
Translation: “We better get out in front of this!”
We are unindicted co-conspirators to 6 years of Obama’s treason and lawlessness. Let’s ‘investigate’, find nothing, and then call it old news.
