Trump needs to fire this POS!


"In a stunning admission to Fox Business News’ Lou Dobbs, Lt. Col. Tony Shaffer reports Attorney General Jeff Sessions refuses to lift a gag order on a key witness to the Clinton-Uranium scandal."

The news out today is this witness gag order. I think the headline is presumption because all's Lt. Shafer said is he wonders why Ag Sessions won't lift it, not that he won't.

If the narrative is correct he must be making millions of dollars in bribes from Russians. No?

Playing Devil's advocate here: Do you think there is some broader strategy to all of this Uranium One business? That is to say, is the CIA using this deal for some sort of intelligence gathering or counter-intelligence operation? This might explain why even Trump's people are being mum about the whole thing.

Plant a bag of weed on somebody involved in this investigation and maybe Sessions will get the ball rolling. What a state-worshipping, authoritarian frick.

There must be some major folks this would implicate. And DC takes care of DC.

Jeff Sessions is now a swamp creature and must be removed from his position! This is unbelievable!

Unless it's for national security reasons, then transparency would be a start.

Isn't it potentially a part of an ongoing investigation? Why does this guy have to run his mouth about what he does or doesn't know. Don't you people have enough to run around squawking about?

No offense.

So why not interview him or take his testimony? In an investigation, you want to be as thorough as possible. Limiting the testimony of potential witnesses decreases the likelihood of an effective investigation.
