I concur.

The 3D Chess Game defies Occam’s Razor: too many suppositions.

I say Sessions is an Institutionalist, not a Constitutionalist. He may want to clean house somewhat, but without exposing the treason of the UniParty, and then to move on.

He defended the Bundy persecutors, whose case was thrown out with prejudice! (Just more 3D? I doubt it.)

“I say Sessions is an Institutionalist, not a Constitutionalist.”

He’s a compromised backstabbing rat bastard...It looks like he will be the key figure in bringing down the Trump Presidency.

Sessions farked us—farked Trump and farked America. The guilt is written all over his face. /spit

More likely, it’s proof that Schiff now realizes his felonious leaking is about to bite him in the ass too, so he’s decided to become more “reasonable.”

And this is exactly what has to happen to a few hundred political actors in DC for this nonsense to end. (And a good many of those “political actors” are reporters for the left-wing media.)

I suspect that’s going to come back at you as though you’d spit into an oncoming 80 mph wind before this is all over. But I guess we’ll soon see.

For the record, I think the IG report will be huge and that immediately following it will be the report of the DOJ prosecutor that Sessions has assigned to the case along with way more indictments than you could ever imagine.

The Left will soon bring him back into line for daring to speak a word of truth.

That’s a real possibility he has the inside scoop on what the IG report shows.

And the media just lies, and lies, and lies that there is some sort of a conspiracy behind the firing and that somehow McCabe is now the victim...why do they think he’s been on leave all of this time and stripped of his authority? Hint: It wasn’t because he was a beacon of integrity.

Who cares, his wife makes $600,000 a year or something like that..I’d say he’ll get a book deal like Comey, but maybe not, since Schiff for brains is now trying to pee in his party’s cornflakes.

I think you have a most reasonable attitude toward this. Unlike some of our colleagues here who want to attack the citadel with torches and pitchforks and throwing flaming bodies off the walls, white hats and black hats alike to sort them out on the ground.

First, you are right. If Schiff thought he could gain an advantage of any kind, he’d be McCabe’s human shield.

Second, the 3000 released were the easy ones to get. Some of the most dangerous ones, dangerous to the country will be held back and a portion of those we will never see bc they will implicate Obama and likely McCain and the Bushes in truly treacherous behaviors. Possibly very many others. The point is not to protect the miscreants but the country.

Your third point is likely correct, too. AG Sessions has to be careful not to bust out with info that harms the country but only enough to take down the miscreants.

Your tone and insights sound a lot like Sundance’s over at CTH.

Schiff is one of only two people on the committee privy to the choicest information. Only the Republican chairman knows more.

We’ve already seen. Jeff Magoo has done irreparable damage to Trump’s Presidency. That’s a fact.

It is telling that he has recently walked back some of his more outlandish claims.

Perhaps the person who texted “there is no there there” already knew?

Nobody in the FBI was closer to Comey than McCabe. Whatever is in the IG report, you can bet Comey will be just as dirty as McCabe. So both firings were more than justified, but Comey’s led to the Mueller witch hunt.

If orange jump suits aren’t awaiting these vermin we’ve lost our Republic.

This is prima facie proof the Dims are freaked out about the November elections.

“There's no way for us to know at this point, but even though it may have been justified, it can also be tainted. And I think the president's badgering of the attorney general, his urging that he be fired before his pension could vest, and the fact that McCabe and every other of the James Comey associates … who corroborate James Comey on the issue of potential obstruction of justice, every one of them has been targeted by the administration, by the Republicans and Congress. And is this because they corroborate James Comey? That's a question we also have to answer.”

So he begins by saying it may be justified and then gives half a dozen reasons why it probably isn't? Looks like all he wanted was a swing at the President.

Schiff is getting on the right side of the situation because he ALREADY KNOWS what McCabe is guilty of.. and it’s very serious.

Yup. There is definitely something way bigger going on. Sara Carter is reporting the McCabe is singing. If that’s true his time on Earth will be shortened.
