WASHINGTON — Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III, as the courtly senator from Alabama used to be known, was a stalwart Justice Department prosecutor for almost 15 years, a job he called the adventure of a lifetime.
Today, Mr. Sessions has a growing list of gripes about how the Obama administration has run his old department, from its “breathtaking†stance on immigration to its “shameful†refusal to defend a federal ban on gay marriage.
“I’m not happy about what’s happened to my Department of Justice,†Mr. Sessions said last year, jabbing his reading glasses in the air at the Senate confirmation hearing for Attorney General Loretta E. Lynch.
After nearly a quarter-century away, Mr. Sessions — now known simply as Jeff — is poised to return to the department to clean house as President-elect Donald J. Trump’s nominee for attorney general, with a mandate to carry out the “law and order†agenda Mr. Trump promised on the campaign trail.
If he is confirmed, Mr. Sessions, who is considered one of the most conservative members of the Senate, will most likely push for wholesale changes and hard-line stances on immigration, terrorism, crime, drugs and guns. Democrats fear he could wipe away progress in civil rights, changes in sentencing and police accountability.
I want to see the faces of the two Panther boys who blocked a voting site in 2008 when they are hauled in and realize there is no statute of limitations on voter intimidation.
that and I want to see liberal govt attorneys in the unemployment lines. Fresh conservative blood. I.E. Drain the swamp.

I hope he does, it's become a cess-pool of illegal criminal conspiracies like Fast and Furious and mob torpedoes for the Democrats, selectively persecuting enemies of the Party while ignoring all laws that interfere with Progressive aims or offend their plantation voting constituencies.

When did illegal immigration, terrorism, crime, drugs and illegal guns become civil rights?

Absolutely DAT, it's the worst cesspool. The IRS as well.

Ad the EPA and Dept. of Education to the pyre.

One of G.W. Bush's worst errors was failing to clean the Clintonian sycophantic operatives out of Justice, Defense, and the CIA.

And the Dept. of Energy. The State Department has been the self-renewing Augean Stables since FDR, at least.
