Losing Chaffetz and McCarthy was bad enough, but now Sessions has lost the support of the Testicle-Crusher himself:
“It seems to me that he has to recuse himself from the decisions about the investigation into Russian efforts to influence our elections — at the very least to avoid the appearance of a conflict even if nothing untoward happened.” — John Yoo
And the fake Jennifer Rubin (the original conservative version was abducted by aliens late last year) continues her months-long assault on Trump: https://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/right-turn/wp/2017/03/02/why-jeff-sessions-is-in-deep-trouble/?tid=pm_opinions_pop
That reads as if Yoo thinks Session is guilty as sin.
Schumer Calls For Sessions Resignation, Special Prosecutor
The US taxpayer will benefit from a legal billing economy-of-scale if they include the Drumpfster Fire at the same time.
Anyone who thinks this is just political needs their brain washed again.
When will Republicans stop protecting their party and start defending their country?
If that makes you angry, you are guilty as hell.
I can guarantee you one thing…Sessions will pay less of a penalty than anyone being sentenced for shoplifting in this country today.
scintilla
Oddly, the Sessions’ housekeeper’s first name…
maybe they could get Ken Starr on it… the Republicans would like it because he did such a bang up job on the Vince Foster and Whitewater deals…
this certainly suggests at least some sort or RICO charges… get em’ as a conspiracy.
And has there ever been a more appropriate place for this definition, it seems custom-ordered for this cabal of slippery oil eels…
“Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act,”
Trump’s the bona-fide RICO President, with a BIG dasvadanya!
(someone told me that’s Russian for “Howdy DOO”)
OK, step up, all you pessimists! Trump outlasted Harrison, which I figured he would, but next batter up is Garfield, who went six months and change. I’ve got twenty bucks says Trump doesn’t make it that far. Who’s in?
Republicans are trying to create the appearance of an investigation but fighting to keep it in friendly hands. We can’t trust the Chairs of intel committees or the DOJ to not tip off the kleptocrats. People don’t like corruption and Putin’s mafia state is the model Trump would follow.
We must have an independent investigation.
"Because the Department of Justice should be above reproach, for the good of the country…"
Fancy that.
OK, Chuck. Bring it and don’t fold, goddammit. This is your opportunity to bring down the whole Reich, and go down in the history books as a hero.
I listened again to the tape of Senator Franken’s question, and Senator Sessions’ response. Either he committed perjury, or he is in advanced stages of dementia. Either way, he is unfit to serve as AG.
I was watching Schumer’s statement on Facebook (foloowed the link on Twitter).
The outraged tweets from Trump supporters are hilarious. Lots of finger-pointing at the Clintons for some odd reason.
Deplorable.
I’m soooo making JEFFY Pop tonight…
Oh. c’mon, this whole story of Team Trump’s Russian connections is so unnecessary – everyone knows the real story, that all the real journalists are pursuing, is Democratic Party disunity.
Dammit. They need to start linking the events so that this gets some traction b/c the GOP is trying to claim this is a single event when its one of a number of events that voters should know about…
Who’s in?
As a card-carrying member of the American Society of Pessimists, Cynics & Naysayers, I predict he’ll make it through his first term.
Is it Twitterboy time yet? Trump’s thumbs have gotta be itching to tap on that Droid. Fake news!!! Unfair!!! Lying, failing, desperate, loser media!!! Schumer fake tears and disaster at trying to be a Senator. I won the election bigly by the biggest margins ever!!! I can do what I want!!!
