Hey Perez, ever hear of the term, “serves at the pleasure of the president?”

This is why it probably didn’t help Trump to wait on firing Sessions. They’re gonna do their impeach thing no matter what. Get it on, sooner rather than later.

What smell is that, Perez...


That’s what I was wondering. I don’t think they really know what that word means. :)

The entire investigation and the conflicts of interest within Mueller’s team are what smells.

The sudden rabid support of Sessions since Trump fired him by Democrats from Brennan to Perez to the Antifa Street thugs is what does not pass any smell test.

Their support of Session makes him look like someone who received 30 pieces of silver to betray his leader.

I don’t particularly care for either of them. I prefer someone like Joe DeGenova. Or that southern lawyer who’s always on with Lou Dobbs. Can’t think of her name.

I said the same thing on another thread last night. He was asked to resign, so he resigned. If he had refused to resign, then Trump would have fired him. I’m sick of the left’s play on words.


So true. Trump didn’t say “ your fired” . He gave him the gentlemanly way to end it gracefully by allowing him to resign..

The MSM Dems just want the click bait tie in.

Sessions offered his resignation months ago - Trump is now accepting it. He was not fired.

If it wasn’t for the direct statement in Session’s resignation letter....the media might get away with the “firing” bit.

Good read on the situation. Now Trump doesn’t have to worry about using what he has learned about their vulnerability.

He strongly hinted that in his press conference yesterday, and unlike “ Barry O “ I think he drew a red line he will not let them cross.

“At the request of the president, I submit my resignation.” =”You’re fired!” It’s almost like a TV show. OH.......

Agreed, do it and get it out of the way if they’re gonna do it, the sooner the better.

If he was fired, the President couldn’t appoint Whitaker via the Vacancies Act. That’s why it is directly in that letter.

So we’re governing by doing smell tests now.

Looking forward to decisions made by auras and energy fields.

Well said, Brennan and Perez are birds of a feather when it comes to betraying the country.
