Trumps needs to gird his administration's loins now. And Sessions isn't up to the job.

I hope Sessions can get that Senate seat back from Doug Jones in 2020.

This is a good thing.  We all know that the President has not been happy with Sessions for quite a while and I assume they had an agreement that he would resign after the election.

This needed to happen.

I had so much hope for Sessions, but it ended up becoming a wuss.

He SHOULD NOT have recused himself from the Russia probe. He did nothing wrong, but he decided to be "above it all" resulting in this giant Mueller special council that's wasting our time and money, resulting in ruined lives like the honorable Gen. Flynn.

Eric Holder would not have done that. I'm not going to miss him.

Now, let's all guess who will be the one to replace him. My bet is Trey Gowdy.

GOOD!

Now, here's hoping President Tweety has wised up or has been wised up enough not to appoint another filthy asset-forfeiture supporter as Attorney General. Or, another nitwit who thinks the way to manage chronic pain is to take two aspirin and call in the morning. Good riddance to another authoritarian gasbag.

I don't think so.  This is just an interim appointment because the post needed to be filled immediately.  He already stated he would announce a permanent appointment later.

Yes, exactly. I'm really hoping they will immediately declassify and release the SpyGate documents, including the FISA applications and everything else Congress has already requested.

So maybe it’s a good ploy to get Rosenweasel to resign too and avoid the need to fire him.

IMHO Rosenstein will need to be fired; he won't go willingly.
