Sessions pushes back on calls for Clinton special counsel
By Katie Bo Williams - 11/14/17 12:11 PM EST

Attorney General Jeff Sessions on Tuesday pushed back on the immediate need for a second special counsel to investigate former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton.

It would take "a factual basis that meets the standard of a special counsel" for the Justice Department to make such an appointment, he said during a heated exchange with Rep. Jim Jordan (R-Ohio) at a Tuesday House Judiciary Committee meeting.
 
"We will use the proper standards and that’s the only thing I can tell you, Mr. Jordan," Sessions said. "You can have your idea but sometimes we have to study what the facts are and to evaluate whether it meets the standards it requires."

FIRE HIM ALREADY!

But a fake dossier is good enough for Trump?

Sessions knows there's no basis for appointing a special counsel.  Screamers like Jim Jordan and Goober Gohmert want one so they can neutralize Robert Mueller.

In other words, it's a nakedly political request.

Trump's campaign staff had 30 contacts with Russians during the campaign.  THIRTY!!

And just yesterday, Don Jr tweeted out contacts he had with Wikileaks, and forwarded information he got from Wikileaks (a front organization for Russia) to his father.

This Mueller investigation is really getting interesting.
