        So why include a picture of Sessions? He sure as hell didn't have anything to do with it.

        But it makes it sound like sessions condones the event, when sessions' antagonistic tendencies to LGBT rival his tendencies to minorities.

        That's good. Somehow I missed that line when I read it earlier. If only all departments stood up to their corrupt leaders.

        A good reminder that many organization employees are around long before cult 45 and want as little to do with them as the rest of us.
