Trump calls on Attorney General Jeff Sessions to end Robert Mueller's Russia probe immediately, escalating his attacks on the inquiry.
"Attorney General Jeff Sessions should stop this Rigged Witch Hunt right now," the president tweets. "Bob Mueller is totally conflicted, and his 17 Angry Democrats that are doing his dirty work are a disgrace to USA!"
The president's attacks on the special counsel have escalated in recent weeks. Trump's attorney, former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, made headlines on Monday saying that "collusion is not a crime."

President Donald Trump on Wednesday called on Attorney General Jeff Sessions to end Robert Mueller's Russia probe immediately, escalating his attacks on the inquiry.
"Attorney General Jeff Sessions should stop this Rigged Witch Hunt right now," the president wrote in a post on Twitter. "Bob Mueller is totally conflicted, and his 17 Angry Democrats that are doing his dirty work are a disgrace to USA!"
Trump tweet
Trump's tweet came before the trial of ex-campaign chief Paul Manafort entered its second day in federal court in Virginia. Manafort is being tried by Mueller's team.
Sessions, who endorsed Trump's presidential bid during the 2016 campaign, recused himself from the Russia investigation last March, before Mueller was appointed. The investigation is being overseen by Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who has defended Mueller against critics in Congress.
Trump has attacked Sessions several times for his recusal. In June, the president wrote in a post on Twitter that Mueller was continuing to investigate "all because Jeff Sessions didn't tell me he was going to recuse himself."
"I would have quickly picked someone else. So much time and money wasted, so many lives ruined...and Sessions knew better than most that there was No Collusion," Trump tweeted.
The office of the special counsel did not immediately respond to a CNBC request for comment Wednesday, and the White House did not immediately respond to a request to elaborate on the president's remarks.
The Department of Justice declined to comment.
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., called the president's tweet "just another attempt to make the American people look at his latest shiny object."
In a post on Twitter Wednesday, Schumer quoted the president's tweet and wrote: "The Mueller-Rosenstein investigation is making progress at record speed: 35 indictments, 5 guilty pleas & Trump's campaign chairman on trial."
California congressman Rep. Adam Schiff, the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, called the president's tweet "an attempt to obstruct justice hiding in plain sight."
Schiff tweet
The special counsel is investigating the president's tweets criticizing Sessions as part of a wider inquiry into whether the president has obstructed justice, The New York Times reported last month.
Trump's attacks on the special counsel have escalated in recent weeks. Trump's attorney, former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani, made headlines on Monday saying that "collusion is not a crime."
The president doubled down on his attorney's comments, tweeting on Tuesday that "Collusion is not a crime, but that doesn't matter because there was No Collusion (except by Crooked Hillary and the Democrats)!"
It's true that "collusion" is not a word that appears in any criminal statute that Mueller is examining. Mueller, however, has pursued charges involving conspiracy, obstruction of justice and making false statements.

Agreed
Excerpt: “Sessions, who endorsed Trump’s presidential bid during the 2016 campaign, recused himself from the Russia investigation last March, before Mueller was appointed.”
OMG, The media refuses to even mention THE FACT that Traitor Jeff Sessions ALSO RECUSED HIMSELF FROM ANYTHING HILLARY CLINTON, DURING HIS CONFIRMATION.
That’s a FAKE NEWS headline. The headline states something that President Trump did not say.
“...should stop this Rigged Witch Hunt right now,...”
“SHOULD” is a lot different then “DO IT NOW”.
You must admit, a witch hunt in American politics would be a lot easier if the Democrats were the party under the microscope.
Clint Eastwood was quoted as saying......
“ Obama will go done in American History as the Biggest
Fraud ever perpetrated on the American People”.........
... Well , then , Little Jeffy Sessions
is the Seconded Biggest Fraud Perpetrated on America.
Jeffy does one thing well, he knows how to sign his name on
his pay check at the end of the month ... What a total
useless sack of manure.
Fraud perpetrated by paid anti Sessions trolls is high on the list at Free Republic
“It’s a tactical maneuver................”
And he has high hopes............
“Trump to Attorney General Jeff Sessions: Stop Mueller Probe ‘right now’.”
This headline misquotes the President as ordering Sessions to stop the probe.
But Trump’s tweet was not even directed at Sessions. If he was going to give Sessions an order, it is highly unlikely that he would do it via Twitter.
His tweet was directed at his Twitter followers, saying that Sessions SHOULD end the probe. There is a big difference between Trump telling his followers that Sessions should do something, vs. Trump issuing Sessions an order as stated in the misquoted headline. Big difference.
All the wishful thinkers who constantly believe that Trump is on the verge of taking Sessions, RR and/or Mueller to the woodshed - how many times must you be proven wrong?
Do you still think after all these months that Trump desperately wants to end the Mueller witch hunt, but is cock-blocked by Sessions and his deep state Senatorial cronies?
Do you really think Trump is the kind of man who would allow his Presidency to be held hostage these many months by Jeff Sessions and some whiney RINO senators?
Trump benifits politically from being the innocent victim of a baseless political witch hunt. It is a political gold mine. He doesn’t want it to end because each day that it persists, his popularity eeks ever upward and the Democrats sink further into their self-dug grave.
That’s why his occasional mild tweets are invariably followed by zero action. He has never lifted a pinky finger to end the witch hunt, and he never will.
You guys can stop the witch hunt right now. I found the culprit.
because of Sessions, manafort is in solitary confinement I don’t believe he has even been found guilty in a court of law and we have an AG who insures HRC remains free. He does so by recusing himself on anything to do with her, the election or the Russians. Jeff Sessions is at McCain level of scumbag
Does anyone else find Sessions lack of engagement bizarre? It almost seems like Sessions has some other role he’s playing.
Fire him and quit tweeting your opinion about this on twitter. Time to act is now
I can see it.
It seems that if you have the gif on your computer already it will show up for you but if not it doesn’t.
The form you have it posted in on in post 39 doesn’t show for me though because of the inclusion of the final quotation mark as part of the link.
If I remove that and copy/paste and go it will show

Work for you?
Sessions not been FIRED and replaced yet...like WTF?!?
Sessions is playing 3D chess, don’tcha know. But he moves the pieces using his anus.
Time for wimpy Magoo to go.
