"[Jeff Sessions'] decision to sabotage the legal instruments of federal civil rights enforcement is going to harm people and communities of color for years to come."

"Ever since Sessions took office, he was openly hostile to consent decrees as a 'harmful federal intrusion' on state and local law enforcement authority. And his final decision as attorney general codified his contempt."

And to think Whitaker is going to be worse than the evil Sessions!

When he was here in Iowa, he commented when his new law firm was up & running, “At least we won’t have to hijack Taco John’s WiFi anymore.” Just the guy you want as US AG. I’m hoping he is now over his head & gets fired or better yet...indicted.

I've been listening to and reading everything I can on the situation. Finally people r discussing what I originally asked, why the heck is he allowed to occupy Sessions office, why not escort him out. BC Republicans won't act on it, so we wait till Jan. for House to do something.

LRT: anyone thinking that Sessions has or will ever turn on tRump doesn't understand that every cruelty tRump inflicts on this country's citizens, is a fantasy fulfilled for Sessions and the GOP at large.
