in front of a partisan crowd this morning?
This after she has been cleared more than once.

(52,208 posts)but this is the donnie administration so this is a minor story.
just imagine lynch or holder saying something like this.
they'd scream how it shows bias and partisanship and the drumbeat would force a resignation.
but with the donnie administration it's a one-cycle story, and not the top one at that.
yawn.

Now the AG has tainted any future jury pool by his pronouncements regarding the guilt of an individual. Talk about screwing with due process.
Does he want to get fired?

(3,406 posts)Peter Strzok and Lisa Page lost their careers for PRIVATE communications that suggested personal bias...that was never acted on.
The AG can not resist joining in the childish "war chant" that has become the trade mark of Trump rallies. The GOPolitbureau had a stroke when Bill Clinton had a conversation with AG Loretta Lynch.
When they write the history of this sad era, the chapter on hypocrisy will be thick.

(85,996 posts)...this tape effectively ends any chance of a prosecution of anyone targeted by the republican vigilantes.
I haven't seen this kind of arrogance in office from an AG since John Mitchell.

They are shameless partisan hacks.
"Whether you realize it or not, freedom of thought and speech on the American campus are under attack today. Of all places," which I take as code for freedom to be racist and hateful.
They don't even try to be subtle.

and yes and i find it infuriating. who is so stupid they can't figure out that if they had anything, anything at all, to lock her up for she would have been locked up years ago?!
Hillary has gotten the worst, most undeserved, bad rap of any person i can think of. except MAYBE innocents who were put to death. But for the big historical picture with huge implications. sigh

... Attorney General Jeff Sessions said "lock her up" at an event on Tuesday amid a refrain of calls to jail former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton that was often shouted at Trump presidential campaign rallies during the 2016 elections ... Sessions has pledged to steer clear of Clinton-related investigations and recused himself "from any existing or future investigations of any matters related in any way" to Clinton's or Trump's 2016 presidential campaigns ... The Attorney General was speaking at Turning Point USA's annual High School Leadership Summit. Turning Point USA is a conservative group geared toward college and high school students ...

(3,479 posts)As a bunch of stupid people who have the walls closing in. Grabing at anything, no matter how dishonest it may be, to pull themselves out. They know they screwed up and locomotive Mueller is heading down the track. I think she should go to prison. Walk in and visit trump, look him in the eyes and laugh with that laugh of hers and say I'm leaving, because I can.

(4,608 posts)deeply disturbing that the audience chanting are high school students. High school students being egged on and encouraged by the Chief Law Enforcement Officer of the Nation to jail a political figure. I'm only surprised he's not in a Klan robe and waving a confederate flag.

(10,828 posts)As I said elsewhere our Attorney General and the Rule of Law are not friends. Not even acquaintances. In fact, Sessions (aka the smirking Keebler Elf) is pretending in his role as are other members of the Administration.
Keep smirking and encouraging your wistful chant, Jeff. Your time will come.
