If Trump had to order this himself, that speaks volumes about Sessions, Rosenstein and the rest of the Mueller and Comey conspirators. Who is really running the DOJ?

Just as I figured. Trump had to kick Sessions in the butt to make him do his job.

Good news. But if he can order that, why can’t he order an investigation of Hillary (or 0bama)?

Trump needs to stop doing the work meant for the AG and get a real AG. This is now beyond ridiculous. All Sessions is doing is running around after M-13 gangs when he has much bigger fish to fry in the D.C. swamp.

Jeff Sessions asleep at the wheel again.

It's worse than that. Sessions was intentionally keeping his foot on the brake.

He said two days ago, that he would NOT lift the gag order on this witness.

The man is either Deep State, or he's in thrall to them.

Gag orders, NDAs; ways to keep lawful information away from lawful law enforcement.

This is bad news. It means Trump had to waste his time ordering it because the slaggards in DOJ won’t do their job.

He [Sessions] said two days ago, that he would NOT lift the gag order on this witness.

Who or what interests is he protecting?

It certainly isn't the US Constitution or American citizens.

I knew he was a mistake from day-1.

It's looking more and more as if his goal is to roadblock the President.

He sure stabbed President Trump in the back when he recused himself from the Russia controversy.

His attorney says se is leaving for California and it will be at least 3 weeks before hearings are held. Spurious at best. My hunch is the agent is in meetings as we sit here wondering.

who says he hasn’t? these kinds of investigations can take a VERY long time, ESPECIALLY to develop a bullet-proof case in court. Nothing would be worse than to bring a case like this and then lose before a jury, because the acquitted crook would then proclaim to high heaven that they had been declared “innocent”, and that the unsuccessful prosecution was nothing but a political witch hunt.

Trump’s own DOJ has refused to undertake investigations of Hitlery or of the IRS scandal. Ultimately, I think this comes down to the President. Tell them you want it done.

Obama might be immune from executive prosecution, but he can be impeached, even though he’s no longer in office. Hillary? Patience.

Yes he did, and unbelieveably, some Freepers still give him a pass.

I was personally done with Sessions the moment he recused. He left our newly elected president standing alone against the leftist jackals who want his blood.
