So much for progress. AG Sessions plans on ramping up civil asset forfeiture again.

Fundamentally unconstitutional.

I couldn't agree more. Between this, reefer madness 2.0 and the tepid at best response to out of control gang violence in Chicago, Sessions is fast becoming the least acceptable of Trump's picks IMO.

Yeah, he was one of the few picks I liked. Not so much anymore.

I thought, like everyone else, I'd give him a chance after unnecessarily recusing himself, but Sessions is quickly becoming a Giant ass-hat. Instead of worrying about following the law, he's turning into an ideologue, just like the ones we got rid of.

Holy crap, a thread where OSA AGREES!!!

(Yes, Sessions was a horrible choice.)

We got this today. The source may be questionable but it seems somewhat legit in this instance...

WASHINGTON — President Trump said on Wednesday that he never would have appointed Attorney General Jeff Sessions had he known Mr. Sessions would recuse himself from overseeing the Russia investigation that has dogged his presidency, calling the decision “very unfair to the president.”

He is part of the swamp that needs to be drained. He wouldn't be the first to be fired by a President.
