At the same time I'm glad but also a little frightened. Because 1. Fuck jeff sessions and 2. the new AG better fucking not fuck with mueller.
Oh man, guess the midterms have Trump scared shitless. Guess what? Mueller can take all his shit and walk straight to the House investigation.
yikes
Wow. This actually surprised me.

Trump's last tweet before firing Sessions: https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1060194964351660033 Also this https://twitter.com/ddale8/status/1060258589804249093 It's happening
Luckily if he does, Dems now have the House and can do something about it.
Update: CNN and WSJ now confirming. https://www.wsj.com/articles/attorney-general-jeff-sessions-resigns-from-trump-white-house-1541619893
Brace for impact! The Orange goon is revolting!
Yikes Thank fuck we have control of the House at the very least.
If Mueller is as close as we think he is to finishing his report, this might be Trump's last ditch effort to stop him
Not exactly very sharp here, what can we do to prevent them from stopping the investigation now?
There's also that sealed case in DC - Mueller's prosecutors are fighting for *something* in court right now and we don't know what
..so, it seems this new guy is just a placeholder??? (Emphasis on second tweet below) https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1060256619383193601 https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1060256623439110146
What in the goddamn...
Yeah the AG needs to be confirmed by the Senate. So someone takes their place with limited power as "acting" AG.
These are truly the actions of an innocent man who definitely did nothing wrong. I am so glad for Americans that the House is now in Democratic control. This is such a blatant move directed solely against Mueller's investigation.
hes gonna use him to fire Muller, MARK MY FUCKING WORDS.
Then Dems will get him to publicly testify everything on camera.
There's literally no mystery to this, Trump has straight up publicly said that he hates Sessions because he recused from the Mueller probe and couldn't obstruct it on his behalf. Sessions has done nothing else to upset Trump. It's not even a situation of like "heh we know what Trump is REALLY up to" he has publicly announced it
Oh yeah, its too late for Trump, but I know its gonna happen. Probably today. Muller better be walking to the House as we speak and telling them everything, on Camera, and making it public.
I gotta wonder if Mueller saw this coming. He's a pretty smart dude, he would definitely have known this was a possibility after the midterms
This sheds light to the fact that the only thing stopping Trump from firing Sessions was him being worried about the midterms.
The question is how much damage Trump will do between now and January 3 when the new Congress starts.
All the same, I'm surprised he didn't try this sooner. It's not like the spineless sycophants in Congress would stop him back when GOP owned all three branches.
He very likely saw it as a potential outcome, but then again everyone saw it coming. It was just a question of when would the spray tan in a can actually do it.
I really hope it blows up in Trump's worthless fucking face. This is a blatantly overt attempt on the integrity of our system of checks and balances.
This overhyped march will be about as effective as a wet fart. Unless you are willing to get violent, nothing will happen, nothing will change.
rip keebler elf man
