Sessions, do your job, order Rod Rosenstein to fire Robert Mueller, immediately. If he fails to conform, fire Rosenstein & then you fire Mueller, the both of these low life destroying purveyors of American justice, honesty, fairness and truth. We, the overwhelming majority of the American "Free" people have had it with the Sessions players of Orwell's "1984" Big Brother government corruption and criminal, witch hunts. Darn it, Jeff Sessions....grow a spine...will ya? These criminal, evil people are at the beck and call of those who would happily destroy the American Republic with no regrets.....Barack Hussein Obama, Hillary Clinton and...

Deputy AG Rod Rosenstein and AG Jeff Sessions are working hand-in-hand on dismantling the Deep State. Deep State corruption is deep and embedded. No normal investigation is going to cut it. Enter The Donald. Critics of Sessions need to understand that Sessions is a prosecutor in the traditional, Wyatt Earp sense. He doesn't camera hog He rarely gives press releases, media interviews, or conferences. He does the work diligently behind the scenes. Why (Nicolas Cage from the movie "The Rock" here) IN ZEUS' BUTTHOLE! is Sessions all of a sudden a Deep State mole, when for years he's been a...

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes announced Sunday he's going to push Congress this week to hold Attorney General Jeff Sessions in contempt of Congress.

“We have to move quickly to hold the Attorney General of the United States in contempt and that’s what i want to press for this week,” Mr. Nunes told Fox News on Sunday.

President Trump’s personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, had his phones wiretapped by the FBI, and at least one phone call with the president was intercepted, according to a report on Thursday. NBC News reported Thursday, citing two people with knowledge of legal proceedings involving Cohen, that federal investigators had wiretapped Cohen’s phone lines, but it is not clear how long it has been authorized. Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who is overseeing the special counsel probe after Attorney General Jeff Session’s recusal from the investigation, authorized the referral. This is the second known wiretap on a Trump associate. The FBI obtained...

It is staggering to witness the Justice Department go off the rails and barrel toward a showdown with our president over innuendo and manufactured misdeeds. From the beginning of the special counsel appointment and despite Jeff Sessions's recusal, I felt confident that Trump and Sessions had a behind-the-scenes plan to navigate this quagmire. Ridiculous was the notion that Trump's attorney general, Jeff Sessions, was not fully in his camp in light of the glaring double standards of justice demonstrated at every point from before the election to present day. I expected the A.G. to pursue other completely legitimate avenues that...

Thursday on Fox News Channel’s “Fox & Friends,” Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani called on Attorney General Jeff Sessions to step in with special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe into Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election and end it. According to the former New York City mayor, the original basis of the case is dead and is expanding into other things. “Everybody forgets, the basis of the case is dead,” he said. “Sessions should step in and close it. And say, ‘Enough is enough.'”Giuliani reiterated his claim that the probe was setting President Donald Trump up for a process crime.(snip)

Trump attorney and former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani joined Sean Hannity Wednesday to discuss the Trump presidency and Mueller witch hunt.

Did you know that Robert Mueller interviewed with Trump for being appointed to the Attorney General slot in the Trump administration? And... Trump rejected him outright. Jeff Sessions got the slot, appointed Rod Rosenstein, who then, within days of the Trump/Mueller interview, appointed Mueller as the head of the "Russian collusion" investigation. How about them cookies, folks? Without a long and boring litany, Mueller believes he is sort of a God , A God of Hate, Dictatorship and Tyranny!!! This investigation of his, is naught but a gigantic farce to lay the ground work for the Trump impeachment. It ain't...

"Today, I’m giving our DOJ and its leaders notice to comply with all requests from Congress for documents regarding (insert various subject matters) in response to its constitutional authority to provide oversight. Because our DOJ has been operating outside of our constitutional framework and I fear will lose all moral authority to faithfully administer justice and obey our laws, they must provide the requested documents within two weeks or there will be dramatic changes at the department." Separately, regarding Mueller, I had some time ago suggested (here: https://mononymous1.wordpress.com/) this approach to dealing with him: (14) When Mueller asked to “interview”...

Unparalleled government abuses of power are about to become public. The question is what we, the people, will do in response to this overt attempt by deep state players to strip us of our freedom. Four recent developments drive home the unsettling nature of our situation: First, Charles Lipson writes how Rep. Devin Nunes (R-Calif.) “is making a deeply troubling allegation: An official investigation was mounted against an American presidential campaign with no official information to support it. If so, then U.S. intelligence and law-enforcement agencies were weaponized for partisan purposes.” Andrew McCarthy, on the implications for equal justice under...

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)...

Enter Jeff Sessions. When he came to Sacramento in early March, as the DOJ filed its lawsuit, politics seemed furthest from his mind — though he was as passionate as ever about the principles at stake. “We believe that we cannot accept the kind of restrictions that California placed on federal law officers, and we believe that their actions exceeded the Constitution, and we will win in the courts eventually,” he told me in an early-morning interview. Curiously, President Donald Trump did not comment publicly about the DOJ lawsuit. But the lawsuit provided sudden inspiration to California conservatives, who began...

Jeff Sessions’ Elegant Counter-Coup In January 2017, right before the inauguration, I was in Trump Tower with Steve Bannon. “What about Hillary?” I asked. “You gonna prosecute her?” He waved me off. “That’s Sessions’ deal.” Latest: Thaddeus Dionne Alexander: MAGA Revolt Against Censorship Unites The Races On March 2, Attorney General Jeff Sessions recused himself from “any existing or future investigations of any matters related in any way to the campaigns for President of the United States.” Everyone forgot the line that followed: “This announcement should not be interpreted as confirmation of the existence of any investigation or suggestive of...

Attorney General Jeff Sessions said Thursday that an ongoing probe into President Trump “needs to conclude” in order to let him focus on North Korea, the U.S.-Mexico border and other world negotiations. Mr. Sessions also said he expects the Justice Department inspector general to finish his investigation into the department’s and FBI’s handling of investigations into Hillary Clinton during the 2016 election in a “few weeks,” saying that will provide more information for decisions on whether there was wrongdoing.

WASHINGTON - U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions on Thursday defended his decision not to appoint a second special prosecutor to investigate Republicans’ concerns about the FBI by noting that Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia probe had already taken on “a life of its own.” U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions testifies before a Senate Appropriations Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies Subcommittee hearing on the proposed budget estimates for the Justice Department, on Capitol Hill in Washington, U.S., April 25, 2018.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Questions about President Donald Trump and the investigation into whether his 2016 election campaign colluded with Russia overshadowed a Senate hearing on Wednesday with U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions, who has been a frequent target of Trump’s wrath. Sessions was the sole witness at the hearing on the Justice Department’s proposed 2019 budget, where Democrats repeatedly drew the spotlight to the Russia probe. In ways that could keep Trump’s fury in check, Sessions delicately navigated questions on recusals, pardons and even the possible firing of high-ranking officials. Sessions would not say if he had recused himself, or...

(snip) --- On March 2, Attorney General Jeff Sessions recused himself from “any existing or future investigations of any matters related in any way to the campaigns for President of the United States.” Everyone forgot the line that followed: “This announcement should not be interpreted as confirmation of the existence of any investigation or suggestive of the scope of any such investigation,” he added. But what he did not say was that the announcement should not be interpreted as denial of the existence of any such investigation.” The Swamp—and virtually all of the hysterical right that was conditioned to being...

Attorney General Jeff Sessions has decided against recusing himself from the investigation into President Donald Trump’s personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, but will consider stepping back from specific questions tied to the probe, according to a person familiar with the matter. By contrast, Sessions recused himself from the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election that’s now led by Special Counsel Robert Mueller, a decision that angered Trump and left Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein in charge of the inquiry.
