Op-ed:

Jeff Sessions: Missing In Action...Again

By: Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor / Right Side Patriots on American Political Radio

While this is the beginning of my article I can safely say it's also the end of my article...an end where it becomes more than a bit apparent that as long as Jeff Sessions is attorney general, and as long as Republicans give Robert Mueller even more time to procrastinate in wrapping up his joke of a proven nonexistent Trump/Russia collusion investigation...Congress will use that as an excuse to stay unfocused and get nothing of substance done...while the mainstream media racks up ratings and advertising numbers as they continue to twist the truth into even more lies.

And while on occasion Jeff Sessions speaks out against sanctuary cities and the need to cut said cities federal funding as well as sporadically informing us that the round-up of illegals is still ongoing, there are so many other occasions where in his position as Attorney General, Sessions could have and should have done his job and brought charges against the guilty party or parties.

Remember when Obama illegally ordered spying on American citizens including all those who ran in the 2016 Republican presidential primary, I surely do. And I and so many others watched over time as said spying morphed into the media-hyped Russian dossier scandal Obama, Hillary, and crew were sure would take Trump and his presidency down. Starting off with the F.B.I. lying to the FISA courts regarding said dossier...a dossier now proven to have been funded by the Hillary campaign...with her full knowledge of course...it was also a dossier Rino John McCain personally hand delivered to the F.B.I. And he happily did so in an obvious attempt to get revenge on the man who said that he, McCain, was no war hero, and who he could not believe was actually elected president.

And dare we forget that it was former F.B.I. Director James Comey and crew who were charged with getting to the bottom of Hillary's email scandal, and who in a 'dog and pony' televised news conference actually had the gall to exonerate Hillary Clinton...exonerate her in what was actually found out later to be an exoneration James Comey himself wrote up even before he had bothered to interview Hillary regarding said scandal.

Silence on all above accounts from AG Jeff Sessions...who while not attorney general at the time of certain happenings still legally had and still has the power to bring charges, but who instead chose to recuse himself from anything even remotely involving or suspected of involving Russia...or for that matter Hillary or Obama. But what can you expect from the man who publicly stated that he wanted the Inspector General alone to look into all the above stated matters even while he knew that the Inspector General cannot prosecute anything...how convenient and 'red flagging' is that.

But then again Jeff Sessions says a whole bunch of things without his really saying or doing anything of substance. As examples of that lest we forget that Uranium One is still out there circling overhead and so is the Clinton Foundation...the first concerning Russia, Hillary, and treason; and the second concerning the buying and selling of political favors to foreign governments by the very two people whose payroll, I believe, Jeff Sessions might secretly be on. The true reason for his not prosecuting anything...perhaps.

And recently a group of Republican lawmakers...including Rep. Mark Meadows (N.C.) chairman of the conservative House Freedom Caucus along with two of the group's co-founders, Reps. Jim Jordan (Ohio) and Ron DeSantis (Fla.)...presented to Congress a 12-page resolution that asked for a second special counsel to probe all matters directly related to the ending of the investigation into Hillary Clinton's personal email server, the progress of the Trump/Russia investigation from its origins through the appointment of Robert Mueller as special counsel, and abuses of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) during the warrant application process. 

In fact, Rep. Lee Zeldin (N.Y.) when announcing the resolution to the press said that, "The Justice Department cannot be expected to investigate itself," adding that AG Jeff Sessions "should tap an independent investigator to examine whether FBI and Justice Department officials obtained surveillance warrants with insufficient evidence."

Really...Jeff Sessions would never do that for the obvious reason of possibly implicating himself, and besides does anyone really believe a second investigation would bring different results than the first...it's just another waste of time and our hard earned taxpayer dollars as we and Congress already know that certain folks most definitely belong locked up in jail. 

And the fact is that AG Jeff Sessions could end this nonsense once and for all if it wasn't for his recusal getting in the way. Being just the same old nonsense but on a different day, maybe instead Congress should look into the real reason why Jeff Sessions recused himself in the first place. Perhaps I should send Congress the article The Case for Removing Jeff Sessions my RIGHT SIDE PATRIOTS partner Craig Andressen and I wrote to help aid them in doing what they know should have been done long ago...demand Jeff Sessions do his job or resign his position post-haste.

And now being thrown into the Jeff Sessions recusal mix comes the fact that President Trump recently demanded that the Department of Justice investigate whether the now disgraced F.B.I. infiltrated his presidential campaign via what he calls an “embedded informant”...an informant by the name of Stefan Halper who also sought a permanent position within the Trump administration...an informant who suddenly seems to have gone missing like so many others before him.

But to see the big picture regarding the now corrupted F.B.I. and how it ties into Sessions' inactions, one needs only to understand some basic facts, first of which is that under James Comey's directorship the F.B.I. was indeed Obama's private army of sorts...maybe not the rank-and-file agents per se but surely the hierarchy all have the stink of Obama on their hands. Doing Obama's bidding by looking away to not only protocol breached, but by actually tampering with and even destroying evidence revolving around Hillary's email scandal in order to try and assure her win...and Obama's third term in office I might add...now places the F.B.I. on its own 'wanted list.' And when you add into the mix that the Hillary campaign actually helped to fund the Steele dossier/Russian collusion nonsense the once great F.B.I. becomes but a joke that saw educated men and women suddenly and willingly choosing to play dumb especially when it came to the FISA court.

Comey's F.B.I. and those in the D.O.J. knew well the true duties and obligations of the FISA court, and yet they manipulated said duties and obligations into not only affecting domestic politics, but in setting the course said politics would take. How so...by together creating a scandal to manipulate votes against Donald Trump and in favor of Hillary Clinton...the above stated Steele dossier, charges of Russian collusion, and vote tampering nonsense was born. And that nonsense took on a life of its own and grew to the point where we now know as fact that in 2016-2017 the FISA court was “abused by intelligence officials”...aka the F.B.I...who used the phony dossier as their prime evidence  against President Trump.

And with 'We the People' knowing what we know now... courtesy of the limited information given to us in a 'throw them a bone' manner...so did AG Jeff Sessions know as well as did Barack HUSSEIN Obama for the fact is that as president, Obama was informed of all FISA court dealings and rulings as they happened. In fact, I believe, Obama is probably ground zero for this whole sorted mess...with Jeff Sessions recusing himself for one obvious reason alone...not to protect himself or his real or imaginary dealings with Russia, but to protect Obama alone.

Are the pieces of the puzzle coming together for you yet?

Remember, all these shenanigans boil down to one thing...a not so hidden 'Deep State' attempt to try and negate the 2016 election results. Removing President Trump from office, through impeachment if need be, and to install Hillary Clinton as president was and still is their main goal no matter that Hillary is a drunken, America-hating, socialist spouting, U.N. controlled, islamist-condoning puppet-on-a-string...albeit one with the all-important D after her name.

I guess the plotters and planners truly forgot that even if Trump was indeed somehow impeached Hillary Clinton would still not even be on the presidential succession list as V.P. Mike Pence would now head said list.

But again, Jeff Sessions knows this all and still sat mum on the sidelines. And why am I so sure of all I just said... said even beyond what was exposed in Craig and my previously stated article...why...because Jeff Sessions did not request to be in yesterday's meeting Chief of Staff John Kelly was tasked with brokering...the all-important Trump called for meeting between congressional leaders and the F.B.I., the D.O.J., and the office of the Director of National Intelligence. And really why wouldn't Jeff Sessions in his capacity as attorney general not want to be there...to be there if only to garner first hand information to help him set up a case against any and all guilty parties...that's in his job description after all...leading me to believe this has to do not just with his recusal from all things Russian connected, but because of the actual act of recusal itself.

And this, again I believe, has possibly led some in high places to now consider that Jeff Sessions just might be the White House leaker. Remember, some of the leaks have stopped since islamic-condoner and now former National Security Advisor Gen. H.R. McMaster has been gone...some...but not all.

But even if the above stated is proven to be true, a hero of sorts has entered the picture as Rep. Trey Gowdy (S.C.)...the House Oversight and Government Reform Chairman...has taken a special interest in the F.B.I.'s mishandling of the entirety of the Russian investigation. And Gowdy's interest peeked after earlier this month he met with some members of the Department of Justice to go over their role in now exposed F.B.I.-FISA abuses.

And so at 12 noon yesterday the first of two meetings regarding what has become known as "Skygate" took place...sans Jeff Sessions of course...at Department of Justice headquarters. Present were White House Chief of Staff John Kelly; White House Council Emmett T. Flood, Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein; F.B.I. Director Christopher Wray; Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats; House Intelligence Committee Chairman Devin Nunes...who also accused the FBI of planting an "informant" (a spy) within the Trump campaign...and above stated House Oversight and Government Reform Chairman Trey Gowdy. And at the very last minute Representative Adam B. Schiff of California, the top Democrat on the House Intelligence Committee, was included in said meeting after leading Democrats accused Nunes and Gowdy of holding a partisan meeting that "could be weaponized" against the D.O.J. and even against Robert Mueller himself.

So what was the outcome of this first meeting...simply a lot of whining that the president's council attended said meeting. But really why shouldn't he be there to protect President Trump's interests, after all tensions between the White House and Sessions' Department of Justice are at an all time high what with the Russian investigation being nothing but a witch hunt, blatant F.B.I. improprieties more than bordering on the criminal, and the now come to light accusations of a spy being placed by said F.B.I. within the Trump campaign.

The second meeting at 2pm...again sans Jeff Sessions... was called for after Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer whined that no Democrats were invited to Kelly's first meeting even though Mark Warner...the ranking Democrat on the Senate Intelligence Committee...was asked to attend but declined. This meeting was attended by a select bipartisan group of lawmakers with whom the government’s most sensitive intelligence is shared...a group referred to as the 'Gang of 8'...also saw John Kelly, Rod Rosenstein, Christopher Wray, Dan Coats, and Trey Gowdy in attendance...with House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and former decliner Sen. Mark Warner there as well.

And while there is a 'gag order' of sorts against disclosing what was said at this second meeting as well as what was said at the first, you just know the supposed F.B.I. informer Stefan Halper was a key point of discussion. And we all know that over the next few days information will surely leak out as it has done so many times in the past.

And so what I said at the beginning of my article holds just as true at the end for AG Jeff Sessions' silence and absences in regards to both meetings and all the things stated above is the direct cause of everything getting out of hand. If Jeff Sessions had not recused himself...if he had done his job as America's chief law enforcement official...the guilty would now be in jail awaiting their court dates, and an innocent man would finally be totally free to do the job 'We the People' elected him to do...unencumbered by shear nonsense hanging over his head. 

And oh yes...I hope President Trump fires Jeff Sessions now.
