Is Sessions just lying in wait like a Gaboon viper?

As have a lot of Americans, I've been very disappointed in the performance of Jeff Sessions. I found this link which partially explains, perhaps, Jeff Sessions' strategy. Is he really just being extremely patient? Is he just being incompetent? I don't know, but regardless, my patience, too, has worn thin. LINK

There can be investigation ongoing behind the scenes. If there are no leaks, there aren't many people that would know they are happening...

What an odd reference.

For those interested:
quote:

Bitis gabonica, most commonly known as the Gaboon viper, is a viper species found in the rainforests and savannas of sub-Saharan Africa.[1] Like all vipers, it is venomous. It is the largest member of the genus Bitis,[2][3] and it has the longest fangs – up to 2 inches in length (5 cm) – and the highest venom yield of any snake.[3]


Anyway, Sessions is incompetent. You should have gathered that from his stance on marijuana.

Why? He goes after the greatest scourge in the US- pot smokers, and everyone they have ever interacted with.

It has been proffered that what is happening is a methodical acquisition and cataloging of evidence against the enemies of the U.S. in order to ensure when the hammer is lowered there won't be a question about the legitimacy of the conclusions. It's why multiple investigations have been started by Sessions over the past year and why it's taking so long. If it's not done the right way, everyone will get off and time will have been wasted and justice not served.

I hope that's true.

Research the Gaboon viper's patience and hunting strategy and you will easily understand the reference.

I usually don't hesitate to have an opinion on someone. I have gone back and forth between Sessions being completely incompetent or patient beyond belief.

I give him the benefit of the doubt and he seems to dissapoint I run out of patience and say he needs to go and then he surprises the shite out of me.

Just cannot figure this guy out and I readily admit it.

According to Trey Gowdy this morning, that is wrong. McCabe has just been denied "enhanced" benefits because of his firing. He will still get a pension - just not a full one.

That's BS. Bitis progressiva has a lot more venom and is a lot more deadly on a wide scale.

no. not at all.

He is ineffective and just trying to keep from losing his post without being fired and publicly disgraced.

If HE starts prosecuting or names a special investigator, I’ll give him:

But if not, he’s just so much harmless meat:

No, but you're close. Session isn't a Gaboon viper, he's a baboon diaper....

Perhaps he waited until right before the deadline to have as much evidence in hand as possible.

If I had investigations going I would

That should answer your question.


Actually, he didn't lose his pension.
