        Not surprising perhaps that in his resignation letter Sessions twice used the term “rule of law”, reminded Trump that “each of us has a responsibility to safeguard” it, and referred to the “fundamental legal processes that are the foundation of justice.”

        Sessions dropped plenty of bread crumbs for the Special counsel, didn't he? Undated letter that specifies that he was asked to write it.

        Undated letter turns out to be that he attempted to quit PRIOR, and was talked down. They’re saying this on @msnbc and now #Bechloss is on in a separate segment, however.

        You are absolutely correct and we MUST uncover each and every illegal act by Trump AND who actually took part in each one! I am betting that there are more rats in the cheese barrel than we think! At the very least, we must protect the Mueller investigation by protesting loudly!

        The difference is there were still some honorable Republicans then, who would put country above party.

        The republican Congress stuck with Nixon until the bitter end. But yeah, the Congress of today is way worse. Compromised themselves perhaps?
