Ever since US Senator Jeff Session (R-AL) was named by Trump to be his Attorney General, the Left has all but turned themselves inside out in Borking him. They understand that the Progressive agenda that Obama “penned and phoned” will be under full frontal and flank attack and Session will basically dismantle and dismember one of their heights of power – the now weaponsized (and IMHO, prejudicial against anyone or anything that could be designated an “oppressor” within the realm of Critical Race Theory) Department of Justice.
