What Circumstances Does AG Sessions Consider 'Extraordinary' Enough to Name a Special Counsel?

(CNSNews.com) - Attorney General Jeff Sessions on Thursday told Republicans in Congress that the appointment of a special counsel "is reserved for use in only the most 'extraordinary circumstances,'” and therefore, Sessions won't appoint one to investigate the conduct of senior FBI officials regarding FISA warrants, political bias, lies, and other matters.

Instead, Sessions -- in a letter to Republican committee chairmen [1] on Thursday -- said he has asked John Huber, a U.S. attorney in Utah, to make recommendations on what more may need to be done and "whether any matters merit the appointment of a Special Counsel."

Sessions is trying to run out the clock, under Sessions laws are for little people. His DOJ is no
different than Holder's or Lynch's.  I hope Sen Grassley lets Trump fire his sorry ass.
