Finally! The restoration of rule of law after years of power accountability on the level of a third world tinpot dictatorship.
Sessions orders DOJ review after report Obama administration gave Hezbollah a pass
By Alex Pappas, Jake Gibson | Fox News, December 22,2017:
Story continues below advertisementThe Justice Department said in a statement to Fox News that Sessions on Friday directed a review “to evaluate allegations that certain matters were not properly prosecuted and to ensure all matters are appropriately handled.”
“While I am hopeful that there were no barriers constructed by the last administration to allowing DEA agents to fully bring all appropriate cases under Project Cassandra, this is a significant issue for the protection of Americans,” Sessions said in a written statement. “We will review these matters and give full support to investigations of violent drug trafficking organizations.”
According to a bombshell exposé in Politico on Sunday, an elaborate campaign led by the Drug Enforcement Administration, known as Project Cassandra, targeted the Lebanese militant group’s criminal activities.
“We will review these matters and give full support to investigations of violent drug trafficking organizations”
But when Project Cassandra leaders, who were working out of a DEA facility in Chantilly, Virginia, sought approval for some significant investigations, prosecutions, arrests and financial sanctions, Obama Justice and Treasury Department officials delayed, hindered or rejected their requests, according to Politico.
“Protecting our citizens from terrorist organizations and combatting the devastating drug crisis gripping our nation are two of the Justice Department’s top priorities,” Sessions said. “Operations designed to investigate and prosecute terrorist organizations that are also fueling that drug crisis must be paramount in this administration.”
DOJ officials told Fox News the review could lead to new prosecutions of people affiliated with Hezbollah. It could also lead to an Inspector General investigation of personnel matters relating to the project.
“The DEA has worked tirelessly on this front,” Sessions said. “I am committed to giving our hard working and dedicated DEA agents all the tools that they need to allow them to shut down these drug rings.
Sessions added, “The Department of Justice is absolutely committed to investigating and prosecuting international drug trafficking organizations and with the assistance of our DEA and FBI agents we will leave no stone unturned as we work to making America safer.”
REPUBLICANS DEMAND ANSWERS OVER CLAIMS OBAMA GAVE HEZBOLLAH A PASS
Since the report surfaced, a number of Republican lawmakers have demanded answers about the allegations. Meanwhile, former Obama administration officials have broadly dismissed the allegations as false.
“There are many reasonable critiques of Obama’s foreign policy,” former Obama official Tommy Vietor tweeted. “The idea that he was soft on Hezbollah is not one of them. The story is so manufactured out of thin air that it’s hard to push back except to say that it’s a figment of the imagination of two very flawed sources.”

P.S. And yes, it’s about time Sessions began playing smash-mouth with these Islamist-sympathizing Alinsky Marxists.
“The interests of Muslims and the interests of the Socialists coincide in the war
against the Crusaders.” [Western civilization]

“The Left wants to tear down Western civilization because they think it’s ‘unequal’.
The radical Muslims want to tear down Western civilization because they think it’s evil.”

Merry Christmas to Every patriot !
I don’t think session will do anything to get to the truth. so far he has only blocked/refused investigation into Hillary Mafia. Either he is part of it or they have info on him to expose his crimes.
Politicians, bureaucrats and media are on payroll of Muslim Lobbyists to further their agenda.
Like Dems selling out American interests for thousands thrown their way by iranian Lobbyists to support nuke deal http://tinyurl.com/mcake4d
Not one of the corrupt MSM covered it.
Sessions is worthless and will accomplish nothing for us. I can’t think of one thing he has done for us.
There must be something but I can’t think of it at the moment.
Psalm 122:6.
Lock him up (Obama)
Lock him up (Holder)
Lock her up (Hillary)
Lock her up (Valerie Jarrett)
This list could go on… & on… & on… & on… & on… Please add Brazille, Lynch, Pedo-stas, Alefantis, Rothschilds, Bushes, Britain’s ‘Royal’ Family, Mueller, Comey, Billy Clinton, Rockefellers, Soros (& his son), Huma, Weiner, 25% of Hollywood…Ah, this list is never-ending, right??!!!!
Add George Soros, and that would make my day!
Glory to all man kind and to the believers, eternal life.
“Radical Muslims” the delineation with a difference so thin you can’t see daylight through it.
Nice gesture, but obimbo is above the law, he knows it as does everyone else. Another space filler.
Indeed. Ultimately requires divine retribution – BUT – at least the horse is moving a little.
Since Bush 43, and probably before, Muslims were eagerly placed in high positions of government, and they are not about to go away quietly. These need to be routed out permanently and arrested for sedition.
It would take a second HUAC to do that — and there are far too many muslums and muslum collaborators in the US government for that to happen.
House Un-American Activities Committee – vilified by the Left and media in its heyday, of course, with or without muslims.
Why is Pam making such a big deal out of this?
She is acting as though we just scored a major victory.
Sessions will do nothing. Trump’s inability to remove him makes Trump look bad as well.
As near as I can tell this is all space filler just to keep the names and scandals in the forefront, it is not possible to actually do anything about the political nobility as they are above the law, everyone knows that.
this all happened while little jeffy and his gop dolts were in control of congress. this will all lead back to them as well. they didn’t know what obola was up to? does anyone really think jeffy is going to investigate this?
Admittedly, I voted against Obama both times. From my perspective he was without the type of experience, background and competence that I thought the job required, and I initially faulted the Democratic Party for its choice of candidate. Watching how he practiced as the President left me with the conclusion that I was right in my personal analysis. Nevertheless, I am very troubled by what I see happening today between the two major parties. While I agree that no one is above the law, I am frustrated by what appears to be political “adversaries” continuously throwing mud at one another, rather than intelligently discussing the issues and debating those issues to some reasonable conclusion. While I realize that there can be two sides that differ; I would hope that intelligent people who care about this country can find reasonable and working compromise. I realize that there are sometimes different factors that influence our reps, but the present conduct of our politicians has become to me borderline insanity and a total failure to intelligently debate the issues facing our country.To me that is no way to run this great country. I have for many years promoted term limits, preclusion of high up administrators and all elected officials from being able to lobby, (and even that might benefit from some time constraints), requiring all of our elected officials to provide no better for themselves than us citizens, and require a balanced budget. All of this can happen if a States Convention concludes that our Constitution needs to be amended accordingly. I believed that adopting these amendments would favorably influence how this country is run, to our mutual benefit. Therefore, I respectfully suggest that we all support the adoption of the state convention process and urge our state reps to approve the convening of a state convention, since it is obvious our elected officials will never move to amend the Constitution when that would adversely affect their power and control, and hopefully drain the swamp. Now this quagmire involving our prior president, and possibly more involving the nuclear sale to Russia, Russian collusion, the email “scandal,” the national security issues, status of entitlements and a group of unaccepting adversaries that continue to bad mouth Trump and refuse to accept his presidency. My approach is to give the guy a chance. Maybe he will lead us to the light. The effect of all this is CHILLING! I needed to vent, and I hope that others who read this post will not view it as inappropriate. I am an American who feels that his country has been let down, and I want our ship righted. .
Anyone surprised about Obomit???!!!

If Sessions can’t find high crimes in this, Sessions needs to be charged.
You’ll have to find him first. He would make for a good trivia question, no?
More like “Where’s Waldo?”.
Hussein Obummer was one hell of a Muslim sympathizer.
lets see him claim plausible deniability on this one
How many died?
– It should be possible to use fairly standard health economic methods
– to estimate how much narcotic reached the streets by that Hezbollah route
– and estimate how many people died from that amount of narcotics
– basically, it’s just arithmetic
It’s about time Sessions stopped dragging his hiny. The perfidious like of Obama, Hillary and every Democrat bent on turning this Republic into a mirror-image of Cuba, or the defunct USSR are base criminals and subversives. Slothful Obama was and remains the utmost Enemy of the State; he is hell-bent on morphing this Constitutional Republic into an Islamic State. There surely is ample evidence of this gaggle’s treachery and criminal actions to have them indicted.
Liberalism is a misnomer; its accurate definition is Marxism. Most disconcerting is the flagrant alliance of the leftists and their Ally, Islam. One does not have to be a political pundit, a politico or a rocket scientist to discern Obama is knee-deep in the malignant machinations to sabotage this Republic. It has been his endeavor for decades, while he was president, to this day. The man and those clutching his coat-tails are also impeachable.
How or why does Sessions continue to hold his job? This is an opportune time for him to save, not only his job, but the nation. I, for one, will not hold my breath,
Well said Ziggy!! Wish that I had said it but am glad that you did as it NEEDED to be said!!
Thanks, Pathfinder; Merry Christmas and a Happy New year, take care.
Sessions will do nothing for us.
The left is keeping him very happy and content with a steady supply of yummy cheese.
I don’t know. He’s always struck me as the milk and cookies type.
And what they will do with him (Obama) if they find indisputable proofs of his mischief? “Impeach” him with removal from the list of presidents (something like Akhenaton when his name was removed from the pharaohs’ lists)?
And I thought the worst were the IRS attacks on the Tea Party and “Fast and Furious” gun-running! It’s not that I’m worried so much about the addicts overdosing because of their own stupidity, though I am concerned that Hezbollah’s drugs would be tainted. What really bothers me is the profits from this trade winding up supporting the murderous jihad, financing weapons to kill more Israeli children and other innocents, and of course appeasing and pleasing the Iranian monsters who are thereby able to spend less on Hezbollah and more on missiles and nukes aimed at ‘the little Satan’ (Israel) and ‘the great Satan’ (U.S.).
If this report is true i hope the entire fiasco is exposed to the outrage of the American people and humiliation of Obama and company. But Obama could never go to jail for this. As president, he had the authority to halt an investigation of B in order to do diplomatic business with A on the grounds that the business with A was more vital to our security. The only thing that could sink Obama would be irrefutable proof that he was deliberately working to harm the United States and help its enemies. As capo dei capi’ of a traitorous criminal gang he would have been working outside his authority as president and thus be outside the protections of executive privilege. But how to prove it?
Of course it’s also starting to look like Obama spent his last months in office organizing the ‘Deep State’ resistance to the will of the people in electing Trump. Most of that effort, like ‘bugging’ Trump tower and having his lackeys unmask Americans bugged through FISA orders for unambiguously political reasons, would be outside his authority as president too. That nefarious activity is probably more likely to snag Obama if someone like Susan Rice, Samantha Power, or James Clapper decides they don’t want to take the fall and do time for him.
Sessions is launching a “review.”
Is that like a “matter,” Jeff? How about doing your job and launching an investigation.
Sessions IS an Obama holdover.
Just one step at a time.Everything can’t be solved in 2017.
Yeah, I don’t hold out much trust for Sessions……..he doesn’t seem to have the guts nor the balls for this job…..I wish Trump had fired him.
Appoint Judge Jeanine Pirro to replace him. She is ultra-conservative, has fire in the belly, and is HOT-looking to boot!
I totally agree!
Wow… How Dastardly obummer acted!
So??? Nothing will be done. Sessions hasn’t even gone after Hildabeast, in spite of all the evidence that has come to light! He’s part of the swamp.
A review doesn’t mean jack $#it.
Darn sure looks thata way Jane!!
There are more than a few reasons Shillariah Clinton should be investigated, I can think of two right off the top of my head: Benghazi and the bathroom classified private email server.
It would be great if this can be proved and Obama locked in prison for the rest of his life. I do t look for it to happen but I am hoping. Buck, a Christian 100% disabled Vietnam veteran ⚔??⚔ right wing republican lifetime member NRA . Friend to Israel
In order to “cut to the chase”, what the investigation will uncover is going to be incontrovertible proof of what is already common knowledge, that Obhammud was and is the worst President ever, bar none. Never mind the rampant corruption of the Grant or Harding administrations or the Watergate shenanigans.
These O-bots make the Nixon crew look like choirboys.
You better nail the Negro on this one. And it’s time to also arrest the Clintons and charge them treason, rape, dereliction of duty, abuse of power, aiding and abetting the enemy, espionage, etc.
All three, I’m convinced, are DERANGED!
Maybe someone higher up told Sessions to get off his arse and get to work or else. Merry Christmas to y’all.
Happiness is a quadruple gallows with traitors Obama, Holder, Kerry and Clinton suspended from the structure.
When will the “investigations turn into the incarcerations.?
Oh please. You must be kidding. Sessions is worthless, and anything he gets involved in will go absolutely nowhere.
We are so desperate for a decent AG that we are grasping at straws here.
A “review” is just that: a review, nothing more.
You’re right, DancerTiffy. He hasn’t even appointed a “blue ribbon committee”.
I would like for the DOJ to oust its corrupted personnel from the Obama era, and investigate Obama’s ties to the Muslim Brotherhood, including what was really done in Benghazi and to Libya and Syria by Obama and Hillary. Libya is now a pure horror show. People are being enslaved daily. Some are having their organs harvested while still alive. Gaddafi had provably cooperated with the US. He was trying to help Africa succeed. Obama and Hillary stabbed him in the back. It would be a healthy thing for the whole world if we brought all of this to the light.
I would not put anything past the OBAMA/CLINTON administration! Hope Trump & his people find more DIRT!
Enough to put CLINTON behind bars!
I get why sessions has been slow to react to all the overwhelming evidence of fbi/doj/dnc/obama admin collusion and corruption staring him in the face. He was a republican senator and a major player in candidate Trump’s winning election campaign. He doesn’t want to appear obviously biased like the mueller squad does. However, there comes a time when it becomes so blatantly obvious that one can no longer look the other way. That time is now sessions. Actually that time was yesterday. Quick Sessions…you have alot of lost ground/time to make up for.
we really should stop referring to these reprobates as communists or marxists. they aren’t anything of the sort. what they are however is hollow greedy rabid dogs with nose blindness that cannot smell their own rot. these are criminals looking for a payoff regardless of who is harmed or what is destroyed. they have no sense of loyalty or attachment to anything. history shows us there are golden ages where there is a confluence of brilliance. and there are bad times where there is a confluence of evil. this is that time. the terrible 21st century.
….and the enemedia still on ”Mute Mode”…
..
I guess this is “safe” territory for Sessions. He’s afraid to go after Clinton because he’s knee deep into the swamp and doesn’t want to be exposed by his past dealings. Going after this is him throwing a crumb to Americans so it takes their mind off Clinton’s crimes. He needs to go, worthless swamp creature!
Let’s see how A.G. Sessions pussy foots around on this.
Merry Christmas
Sessions. He doesn’t want to get involved with partisan politics. But everyone below him is. He’s either complicit or stupid, and we know he’s not dumb. Hey, DJT, how about a new AG for a New Year’s present for America?
False? I seriously doubt it. Obummer is a Jew hater and a Marxist traitor, if you can be one without being an actual citizen. Strange, how they will relentlessly pursue Pres. Trump with absolutely NO evidence but do not like it when the tables are turned, and there actually is some evidence. But, then again, that is the nature of hypocritical bullies, always deflecting their own guilt.
Too late for IMPEACHMENT…never too late to charge TREASON…
Nothing will happen. The elites are immune from prosecution, not a bullet.
