Blue State Blues: How Jeff Sessions Might Save the Republican Congress
Breitbart ^ | 4/28/2018 | joel pollak

Posted on 04/28/2018 10:42:38 AM PDT by bitt

President Donald Trump is not shy about expressing his frustrations with Attorney General Jeff Sessions, whose strict rule-of-law approach at the Department of Justice (DOJ) contrasts with the political role that President Barack Obama’s appointees played — and Trump expected. But after November 6, Trump may have to thank Sessions for helping save Congress by mobilizing dormant conservatives in California around the “sanctuary state” fight.

California is, in many ways, the central political battlefield of the 2018 midterm elections. Democrats need to flip 24 Republican-held seats to regain the majority — and to put House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) back in the Speaker’s chair, capping what would be one of the most remarkable political comebacks in American history. About half a dozen of those seats are in California districts that went for Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election.

Until recently, the momentum in California has been almost entirely on the Democrats’ side. In December, a poll showed that two-thirds of registered voters in the state disapproved of President Trump. Several leading California Republicans — including Foreign Affairs Committee chair Rep. Ed Royce and former House Oversight Committee chair Rep. Darrell Issa — announced their retirement.

What’s the point in saving the “republican” congress when they’re closet luciferians hell bent on our destruction too?

“Strict rule of law”?

What a joke.

Slowly making changes. I’d like faster but it’s undeniable the difference trump over Clinton has made

Good question. Apart from four or five Reps, not one DC Republican has lifted a pinky to save Trump from the Mueller witch hunt Sessions unleashed on him. Conservatives took less abuse under Lynch than we’ve taken under Rosenstein’s DOJ.

I would say that we will know in the next month or so if there is anything to the Q narrative that massive arrests are in the making. If we have those and they are backed up by great evidence then the republicans will be in much better shape. Just being able to prove DOJ/FBI(along with others) Collusion to take out Trump would be huge.

If there are no massive arrests within a month the excuse will be that the public couldn’t handle it. They weren’t redpilled enough yet.

There will always be an excuse...until it’s too late.

For the record..... they all know it is unnecessary to skirmish with Mueller. Mueller and hundreds of others will be destroyed once the indictments begin.

The mindless charge of the light brigade is not necessary if there is an airborne envelopment from the rear.

So utterly, completely sick of hearing about the indictments. Fish or cut bait.

GOP is worthless and is causing a level of damage to MAGA. Time will tell how bad it will be.

Nobody has to bash sessions. He has done a pretty good job of proving his ineffectiveness all by himself. Even his boss thinks he is pretty useless.

I think I used to know, but I’ve forgotten. Can anyone explain or give a refresher on “Q” and these cryptic messages we see?

Gladly. Q is an anonymous poster who began his predictions in October ‘17. Initially he said huge, massive things would happen on Nov 3-4: the public arrest of Hillary and Podesta, the activation of the emergency broadcasting sysyem and special ops accross the country.

Nothing happened but Q kept posting. He/they use riddles and abbreviations, enjoin their followers to learn this form of communication, focuses/focus on human trafficking and child abuse, governmental corruption, is strongly anti-Rothschilds, and preaches trust in Sessions, Wray and “the plan.”

Four main possibilities cover the spectrum:

1, Q is an individual or group just having fun [4chan/8chan, where the posts appear, has a history of this kind of thing].

2, Q is a current or former Trump insider who has Trump’s best interests at heart.

3, Q is a current or former insider who does not have Trump’s best interests at heart.

4, Q is a Deep State psyops/disinformation campaign.

I go with 4 because Sessions and Wray haven’t lifted a finger to help POTUS and the plan is only working well for the Deep State/the Mueller coup attempt.

You and your kind were in a big hurry to invade France. You impatiently and imprudently and foolishly really, cobbled up a raid on Dieppe.

Some 3,600 British and Canadian men were killed or wounded, more than half of those committed. The RAF lost nearly 200 aircraft.

Nothing was gained and it was a total disaster.

Your need to be right and your imprudent lack of patience would have the Republicans create a dieppe. Fortunately you and your kind have no say so.

Sessions should stand up like a man, walk out the door and never look back or say another word about why he left. He should go sit on his porch, listen to the sounds of birds, talk to his dog and perhaps go fishing. He rose to the level of his incompetent and went swimming nude in the DC Swamp.

There is nothing he can fix....he just needs to leave. Or, he can keep screwing around and find himself in prison.
