Apparently, he didnt get the memo…
So if Obama supposedly “abused those powers,” why not impeach him?
This little kabuki show the fundamental bullshit going on… Sessions and the GOP want to have it both ways—“Obama’s a turrible dictator who wants to eat white babies for breakfast, but we’re not going to do anything about it, neither.”
If for even one second the republicans really believed President Obama overstepped his authority they would have no hesitation to impeach him. Sessions is full of shit.
Truth is, I bet they have a grudging admiration for his jiu-jitsu moves on immigration. It’d be hard not to.
Butt out Senator! The House of Representatives has the power to Impeach the president. Not the Senate. Let the House decide…Please proceed Mr. Boehner…
They “truly believe” but will choose to do nothing when that belief is “abused”…sounds about usual.
The call of “RINO” is already echoing about the internet.
The Alabammy Teabag Party just announced Sessions is getting a primary challenger due to “treason of oath” for refusing to impeach the com’nist anti-murkan niCLANG…
Wow wonder what kind of punishment they would impose for starting a war based on lies?
Um, he better tell this to his buddies in the House. He doesn’t have a vote in the lead up.
Did you propose impeaching Bush 43? Bush 41? Reagan? Nixon? etc, etc?
I think not. Is that because they were white “imperialists” and not a black one?
I’ve been wondering all day about the general Republican non-response. For months they’ve been saying this would be an absolutely outrageous abuse of presidential power, there would be disastrous repercussions, basically the world would end three or four times in a row and so forth. I thought there’d be this deafening howl of rage if Obama actually went forward. And all day today? Nothin’. You’d almost think a bunch of loudmouth bullies just got their bluff called and don’t have a goddamned clue what to do about it.
Little Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III ------also known as the Keebler Elf of the US Senate----is about to wet his pants in anticipation of an impeachment.
I don’t care what he says, he’s all but begging the House to start impeachment proceedings.
Don’t impeachment proceedings start in the House? So what control does Sessions have here?
I think Josh nailed it with this graphic:

They have to say this until the conservatives on the SCOTUS give them their politicized decision on the suit they filed today. Once they do, though, the articles of impeachment will be on the floor of the House within hours.
After all, they’ve already been written. I guarantee it.
Yep…can’t say how much I love that maff.
Come on, I dare you, what are you…yellow?
