Sessions needs to stop the misuse of intelligence for politics
NY Post ^ | Dec 17, 2017 | Michael Goodwin

In hindsight, the most important thing said this year came on Jan. 3. Chuck Schumer, leader of Senate Democrats, warned President-elect Trump he would pay a price for disputing intelligence officials’ findings of Russian meddling.

“Let me tell you: You take on the intelligence community — they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you,” Schumer ­declared.

Schumer was right about a vendetta, but wrong about timing. It’s now clear that intelligence officials already had started “getting back” at the next commander in chief.

They started in the summer of 2016.

In early August, Mike Morell, who was acting head of the CIA ­under Barack Obama, broke with agency tradition by entering the ­political fray to endorse Hillary Clinton.

He praised her as “highly qualified” and said Trump was “not only unqualified for the job, but he may well pose a threat to our national security.”

At this point the only thing I'd like to Sessions do is resign. The most worthless AG ever.

I agree totally. Sessions has been a disaster, literally from day one!!! He needs to go and it can’t come soon enough.

The MAIN REASON the Team Obama and his FBI, DOJ, etc., set out to undermine Trump's election is because THEY THOUGHT THEY'D ALL GO TO JAIL if Trump were elected.

This is the distinction here. They sought to AVOID prison for the crimes they had ALREADY committed under Obama.

Could you share the list as a reminder to all?

One can’t imagine Rudy Giuliani standing for all the lawbreaking going on in our intelligence agencies. There would be much of the top brass on trial and many more fired.

They thought they’d go to jail if Trump was elected. Well, they were wrong, weren’t they.

Maybe Rudy has some conflicts of interest and doesn’t want the job. There are others that are qualified to be AG. Sessions will do nothing until he is fired.

This information will probably come out late Friday or a week from Friday when nobody is looking. It will be understated and then forgotten as old news.

Sessions is working for the Swamp and the Coup against Trump .
He fooled everyone in the trump admin and turned out to be a traitor .
His selection of Rosenstein is proof he is working to bring down Trump .
Every in DC knew Rosenstein was a Dem hack and Mueller- Comey ‘s pawn .
He worked for Mueller before another huge conflict of interest violation . Laura Ingram was warning about this Dem hack nomination .

It was a set up folks .

“Let me tell you: You take on the intelligence community — they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you,” Schumer ­declared.

WOW - same reputation as the mob, M13, Blackstone Rangers and every other thug group in the world has.

Our 'intelligence services' must be so proud..

Cut funding... Intelligence Services are suppose to WORK FOR the President - FOR the country... but our 'Intelligence Services' are so out of control and thuggy that Chuck Schumer warns Our President that he needs to fear them.

Dump the thugs.

WOW - same reputation as the mob, M13, crime families, Blackstone Rangers and every other thug group in the world has.

End corrupt intelligence agencies - take out a clean sheet of paper and start over.

What about the subversion Sessions is doing that we DO know about? This blinded-by-Trump-hate agent writes about an anti-Trump “insurance policy,”— and what does Sessions do? He babbles about how there’s probably an “innocent explanation,” for this traitorous BS. Sessions is the problem.

So you are one of the few that still believes Sessions is playing 7th dimension chess that none of the Trump supporters can even comprehend, right?
