I am conflicted by Sessions I think he is the strongest and most agile AG we've had in awhile I don't know if Trump really has a beef with Sessions given their history, or if Trump is playing the 'beef' to keep the media preoccupied I believe it would be a very bad move to have Sessions removed - I think he recused himself for two reasons - his conflict of interest with Mueller, and also the fact that he knew that there was no evidence to uncover on Russia, and that the special prosecutor would drag this thing out forever meanwhile Sessions can go about his other job without the distractions of the special prosecutor Meuller really does need to be reigned in - he can't go on a fishing expedition looking for 30 year old parking tickets...I thought he had a very defined scope [B] Against ALL enemies, foreign and DOMESTIC | |||

Why would Sessions have a conflict with Mueller? Sessions recused humself before Mueller was ever mentioned, before Acting AG Rosenstein announced appointment of a special prosecutor. There is another bit of misunformation out there, that Rosenstein was not appointed by Trump, but he was. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | |||

It doesn't look that way to me. He seemed to be handling himself just fine. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.

Can't do it. That horrible excuse for a human being was bad enough when she was running the CA DOJ. When her face popped up it was time to close that window, fast. | |||

AG Sessions is not that upstanding. Attorney General Jeff Sessions rolled back a series of Obama-era curbs on civil-asset forfeiture on Wednesday, strengthening the federal government’s power to seize cash and property from Americans without first bringing criminal charges against them. https://www.theatlantic.com/po...rtment-civil/534168/ | |||

Being better than Eric Holder is the wrong measure, and means nothing useful. Jeff Sessions has good qualities and has crazy ideas - including Civil Forfeiture. He needs to be fired, immediately, before he causes even more damage. Which is a shame, as his thoughts on immigration and national defense seem sound, and he had my support there for a while, but he's actually off his rocker and needs to go. | |||

I see him maintaining his composure and trying to answer the question as best he can, and Harris won't STFU. | |||

If the special prosecutor reports to Rosenstein and not the AG, to whom will the special prosecutor report if the President fires the assistant AG? Does the President need a reason to fire him? | |||

'Best he can' is not good enough with the adversaries he's dealing with. Trump should look to someone more agile and aggressive. Old age and cunning can become too infirmed and slow. | |||

Maybe because I am "getting older" and while I still think and see from my eyes as I did in my 20s, but realize that to those in their 20s, see me as "less agile and aggressive", it is appearant that they lack wisdom and think themselves wise. Yes, "being better than Eric Holder", is as goddamned important as "Trump means no Hillary in the Oval Office", and that the damage that the GDCs were slinging wholesale, is not occurring. So, while the band playing the opening act is not our perfect idols. Let them play, while the "tune up" is ongoing. -damnIfeeloldmonkey (but I am far from dead...)

The special prosecutor reports to the Attorney General, but as the AG has recused himself with respect to the Russian investigation, the Deputy AG handles it. The President needs no reason to fire anyone who serves at his pleasure but there may be political costs or strategery to consider.

Interesting read on Mueller and his conflicts of interest. I don't know how accurate it is, but if it is, it is pretty damning. http://bigleaguepolitics.com/c...onflicts-trump-case/ I still believe all this crap will backfire big league at some point in time. Probably the biggest reason the Dems and the left have lost their minds is because they were so close to cementing left think for the foreseeable future if Hillary had won after the eight years of Obama. They were so close and they are so crazy with such defeat. They had it and it slipped away. Psychiatrists have gone crazy as well. http://www.wnd.com/2017/07/cra...?cat_orig=diversions ____________________________________________________ New and improved super concentrated me: Proud rebel, heretic, and Oneness Apostolic Pentecostal.

IMO, if the President feels obligated to fire someone, it would be better to not fire the current AG. To give up his Senate seat was a lot to be let go in less than a year because of this investigation. It is not as if an investigation was unexpected. | |||

Sessions needs to start administering Justice. How much evidence of crimes committed by the Democrats (too many crimes to list) is required to appoint a Special Prosecutor to investigate? Cannot Sessions start to question the legitimacy of Mueller's team and conflicts of interest? “We’re in a situation where we have put together, and you guys did it for our administration…President Obama’s administration before this.

No, only in piecemeal, starting with a hot topic of significance: Civil Asset Forfeiture. Sessions has failed us already, meaningfully, undeniably, inexcusably, and is just getting started. At least with respect to the President, his moves and decisions so far are actually beneficial and consistent with conservatism. Sessions, on the other hand, hasn't, and needs to go. Apples and Oranges, Trump and Sessions. | |||

Contrary to the ranting and ravings going on in Congressional committees, and talking heads on TV, a special prosecutor is not required to investigate crimes, unless the investigation deals with those prosecuting or supervising a prosecution. One thing Comey was criticised for, asserted as a justification for his dismissal, was the public disclosure of an investigation prior to indictments. That is not to be done. To the dismay of the news scribblers and talking heads, it is entirely conceivable that investigations are going on right now of all manner of potential criminal conduct arising out of the last political season, and horror of horrors, nobody knows about it. Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way.
