Jeff Sessions Urged Trump Admin To 'Immediately' Halt Immigration

Chantal Da Silva 12 hrs ago

President Donald Trump's former Attorney General Jeff Sessions appeared to take some credit for the president's plan to suspend immigration to the U.S. in response to the coronavirus pandemic on Monday, with the former AG touting how he had suggested such a plan last week.

"Last week, I announced on @TuckerCarlson's show my plan to suspend immigration until Americans are back to work. It's great news that @RealDonaldTrump is putting this into action!" Sessions said in a tweet.

AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.

You can't write this stuff.  It's too bad he's so old, because he weathered the Trump administration pretty well.

Sure has and good for him.  Good for him for speaking up.

Bad, bad move ... this is too clever by half, Jeff. 

This might be a good time to self-quarantine.

Sounds like some kind of threat.  Sounds like something Trump would say.

Both Sessions and Tommy Tubberville self-quarantined during the election, both refusing to debate the rest of the field.

It's not a threat.  It will surprise no one that neither the President, his reelection campaign, nor Tubervile will be pleased with this, that's a given.  There will be a response.

But neither will this please the voters.  It reeks of a combination of desperation and hubris above and beyond Sessions' pay grade.

Too cute by half is rarely a winning political strategy.

Sessions should have simply tweeted that he supports the President's EO suspending immigration.

Last debate... @Right_in_Virginia



Mooney and Moore were to the two Constitutional Conservatives in the race, combined they failed to get 10% each. I voted for one of them, but either were good men.
