    Trump heightens attacks on Sessions: He's 'scared stiff and missing in action'

    Trump heightens attacks on Sessions: He's 'scared stiff and missing in action'

    BY TAL AXELROD - 08/11/18 03:42 PM EDT 2,921

    President Trump ratcheted up his attacks on Attorney General Jeff Sessions on Saturday, tweeting that Sessions was "scared stiff" and "Missing in Action" in defending him amid special counsel Robert Mueller's probe into possible ties between the Trump campaign and Russia.

    Trump slammed Christopher Steele, the former British intelligence officer at the center of the Trump dossier scandal, and the Department of Justice (DOJ) and once again slammed Mueller's investigation as a "witch hunt."


    "The big story that the Fake News Media refuses to report is lowlife Christopher Steele’s many meetings with Deputy A.G. Bruce Ohr and his beautiful wife, Nelly. It was Fusion GPS that hired Steele to write the phony & discredited Dossier, paid for by Crooked Hillary & the DNC," Trump tweeted.
    "Do you believe Nelly worked for Fusion and her husband STILL WORKS FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF 'JUSTICE.' I have never seen anything so Rigged in my life. Our A.G. is scared stiff and Missing in Action. It is all starting to be revealed - not pretty. IG Report soon? Witch Hunt!" he wrote.

    Trump’s attack on Saturday was likely prompted by murmurings that the Republican chairman of the House Judiciary Committee is readying subpoenas for people connected to the controversial Steele dossier.

    Chairman Bob Goodlatte (R-Va.) is reportedly preparing subpoenas for DOJ official Bruce Ohr, his wife, Nellie Ohr, and Fusion GPS co-founder Glenn Simpson, sources told The Hill this week.


    Bruce Ohr is facing scrutiny from Republicans for his contacts with Simpson and Steele during the presidential campaign, the news of which prompted Trump allies to demand a special counsel investigation into the DOJ and FBI in December.


    Simpson hired Steele to help produce the dossier that made a series of salacious allegations about Trump's connections with Russia.


    Nellie Ohr worked for Fusion GPS during the presidential campaign — a fact that Republicans have promoted as a possible link between the DOJ and the opposition research firm.


    Trump has gone after Sessions for the Russia probe before, saying earlier this month that the attorney general should stop the investigation "right now."


    "Attorney General Jeff Sessions should stop this Rigged Witch Hunt right now, before it continues to stain our country any further," Trump tweeted on Aug. 1.


    Trump is also known to harbor hostility toward Sessions for recusing himself in the investigation.


    “The Russian Witch Hunt Hoax continues, all because Jeff Sessions didn’t tell me he was going to recuse himself...I would have quickly picked someone else. So much time and money wasted, so many lives ruined...and Sessions knew better than most that there was No Collusion!” the president tweeted in June.

    Trump, try for once to think of the thing you should be stopping--namely the invasion on our Southern Border.

    Yeah, he is very good at that.

    Like this -----"A.G. Bruce Ohr and his beautiful wife, Nelly"

    reminds me of the tweet during the campaign when he posted the side by side picture of Melania and Ted Cruz wife and made some remark.

    At that time I had been hitting the like button for every one of his tweets, but that one ---I refused! There is absolutely no defending some of his actions, yet many devotees still do.

    What Trump is failing to realize is that he is just pissing many in his base off that appreciate what Jeff Sessions is attempting to do in the fight against illegal immigration! Where the immigration issue is concerned, I'd gladly trade as many Trump's for Jeff Sessions' as I could and feel I came out way ahead in the trade!

    Trump needs to quit the constant whimpering, whining, complaining and blaming of Jeff Sessions for the Russian collusion probe. Sessions was an active part of the Trump campaign and did the right thing, according to DOJ policy, in recusing himself.

    Mr. President, please dedicate more time to supporting your attorney general in the fight against illegal immigration and less time whining about the stupid Russian collusion probe.

    He needs to learn that every negative thing done or said to him doesn't deserve or require a personal response. He needs to allow his communication director, spokesperson, or whomever do their job, while he sticks to the job of running this country! How much more time could he be dedicating to fixing our immigration/border security problems if he gave up the childish temper tantrums?
