GOP lawmakers have had enough of Attorney General Jeff Sessions nonsense
so they are finally taking action against him the gateway pundit reported
that freedom caucus chairman mark meadows RNC and his fellow GOP
representative Jim Jordan Oh are giving sessions Department of Justice seven
days to turn over the documents that they owe to Congress Jordan announced on
Wednesday afternoon that he is teaming meadows to introduce a resolution that
would give the DOJ one week to comply mark meadows and I are introducing a
resolution that would give the DOJ seven days to turn over the documents that
they owe Congress we need to vote on this immediately Jordan announced on
Twitter Jordan then called out sessions Deputy Attorney General rod Rosenstein
rod Rosen Stein threatened congressional staff when the bully picks on your
little brother you have to respond it's time for House leadership to stand up
jordan tweeted this will also send a brutal message to sessions who has
defended rosen sign by saying that he does not believe he actually threatened
staffers on Tuesday night after hearing the sessions defended his Deputy
Attorney General Meadows said that he is confident sessions didn't know what he
was talking about we're fed up with it Meadows said Republicans have clearly
had enough of sessions and with even President Donald Trump turning against
him it seems like his days in the Department of Justice may be numbered
share this story if you want to see Jeff Sessions stab down president Trump's
recent tough talk aimed at Jeff Sessions is producing some distressing headlines
in the mainstream media press such as this one in the Washington Post critics
feared Trump's attacks are doing lasting damage to the justice system really
joining me for a debate are Professor Charles Kesler with the Claremont
Institute and attorney John R Yan he started jihad Ronis
I really do appreciate you gentlemen being here tonight like Donald Trump was
elected to be a disruptive president right I mean he was elected to come in
and not do the status quo now some would obviously argue with maybe some of his
tactics his tweets his aggressive nature but that was wasn't he I mean that is
what he was elected to do was it not a J and I want to give you the first first
stab at this well I don't recall anybody suggesting that he was elected to be the
disruptive president that he's become quite frankly he's ahead of the he's
ahead of government he's ahead of the executive branch he's in his vitriol and
criticizing for example law enforcement judges prosecutors intelligence services
and the way which he does it this does not advance the cause of democracy we
are the most civil ordered government on earth we are and we've been taught to be
proud of our government we should be we have a wonderful government but for the
president the single-handedly criticized the people that have worked for him in
the manner which he does advances nothing I mean look what he did how he
embarrassed Rex Tillerson look how he's he's integrated Jeff Sessions look how
he suggested the intelligence services the law enforcement agencies the
prosecutors around the country have been engaging in conspiracies this does not
advance the cause of the democracy we've been taught to expect out of a president
it's right Charles what's your take on this well the president has a duty to
take care that the laws be faithfully executed that means he's in charge of
the whole executive branch he and he alone is has the power and the duty to
judge the performance of his Attorney General and of his intelligence agencies
he alone has the ability to classify material to declassify it and to grant
Maris's for people in his administration and even people like John Brennan in
previous administrations it seems to me he's doing his job yeah Charles he was
supposed to change the political norms is he doing that is that a good thing or
a bad thing in your book well I think it depends on what the norms are many great
strong presidents have in norm breakers from Andrew Jackson to
Abraham Lincoln in his own way to Harry Truman to FDR it's not unusual for
presidents to change the way they do the job because the the job of president
doesn't come with a manual a how-to manual and it has to adjust to the
personality and the times of the occupants and as long as he remains
faithful to the Constitution and to the common good so the president gets to
make up a lot of his his own job requirements and performance so Jan do
you believe that the resistance movement no matter what the President does no
matter what the president says we're gonna resist it all levels we're gonna
go after this my words not somebody else's a scorched-earth type of
philosophy that says we can't let anybody have any victory in any place do
you really think that that's resonating with the American people because the
economy's been getting better and I think on foreign policy you can argue
it's a much safer place than it was when that from the time Donald Trump took
over well I'm not suggesting I think quite frankly Donald Trump has been his
own worst enemy I mean look he came and he came into the office having an
opportunity to be a really great president but the the manner in which
he's taken to electronic means of communication to dinner gracious a
resistance movement yeah I mean the Democrats on the other side of the aisle
say we're gonna resist at everything and we're going to have this scorched earth
philosophy is that effective in communicating you're gonna be critical
of Donald Trump right for being a vitriolic type of personality and you
know these mean tweets the resistance movement I mean let's go pick on you
know yell at people while they're eating dinner is that really what you think is
gonna be the winning formula for tonight I don't think that it that you ought to
resist every effort of the president I say just as I thought the Republicans
should not have resisted as they did everything that that President Obama
proposed during his presidency we didn't say that that's not true I've seen
listen even even I believe the Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell vowed
that he was never going to let President Obama have any success the Democrats
have not been there yzma bastok and their opposition to
Donald Trump as the as Republicans were with President Obama that's funniest
thing I've heard tonight but I really do appreciate you gentlemen coming to join
us tonight but that is just absolutely not true thank you gentlemen both I
appreciate it and we're back with Congressman darrell
Issa republican of california and congressman we were just talking about
jeff sessions the Attorney General moments ago and you said Jeff sessions
is the only one who can do this to to to right this wrong ship but he's not doing
it should the president fire Jeff Sessions
congressman I think the president has an obligation to make it clear and I think
he's done that that Jeff Sessions has to step up to the plate and do his job he's
ordered open and transparent communication in other words give
Congress the documents they're asking for in the most unredacted way possible
and what he's done is allowed the bureaucrats to slow walk us and give us
documents that look like a black cow eating a licorice at midnight they're
just all blacks that's right and that's that's unacceptable and so when the
president rightfully so says that if Jeff Sessions won't do it then the
president will in fact use his authority to clear the classified request and the
attorney-client privilege and the presidential prerogatives out of the way
and make it available and this is something that needs to be done of
course you need to make sure that if somebody life is at risk that you
protect them but after that the rest of it really is the president saying he
wants to be open and transparent and every one of his cabinet officers needs
to heed that and provide that kind of information quickly yeah well why
wouldn't he Disick Lassa fie these documents congressman you know when I
asked him that when I interviewed the president in July of this year he said
well some people are saying don't do it you know they don't want me to get
involved in that of course we know that the special counsel is trying to look
for any obstruction but why would that be obstruction wouldn't that just be
shining a light on things making it more transparent what's the downside risk
well one of the interesting things is of course the special prosecutor gets
everything completely unredacted we're only asking to - quite frankly look over
his shoulder and look over the shoulder of other
investigations that should occur understand the president inherited an a
a system that likes to give no-one anything I often say that the most
highly classified thing there is anywhere in Washington is embarrassment
and so often it's it's what they don't want you to know because they don't want
you to they don't want to be embarrassed it's not real classification the book
the president is doing the right thing exactly the opposite of President Obama
he's saying make an open and transparent when Jeff Sessions was a senator he
certainly would have said I want the information he in fact maybe not as
quickly as John McCain made the moral argument that we needed to know about
Benghazi and prevent that from happening again right and he demanded documents
now he needs to be on the other side saying Congress has an absolute right
the American people have a right and he needs to lead that or get out of the way
and when I say get out of the way he somebody has to replace him that will do
it if he won't well you said that the special counsel gets to see everything
unredacted you know a lot of people have been making the point that recently me
included that the special counsels investigation will not have credibility
unless he looked at everything both sides I mean we know that Hillary
Clinton and the DNC paid upwards of a million dollars for that dossier they
spent the money on the dossier then they used the dossier to get a warrant to
wiretap they did not they did not tell the FISA Court that the DNC and Hillary
Clinton paid that million dollars for it and yet you know we haven't heard a word
about this from the Special Counsel Ken Robert Muller continue this
investigation without looking at the FISA process and what took place in 2016
well I think a way to put it I and agree with you is rod Rosenstein needs to give
specific instructions that says you can and should do that and if he isn't
willing to do it we have to look to his own culpability in that and that false
FISA warrant that he had a part in he's a witness let me switch gears real quick
congressman and ask you about China and trade because really stunning
developments on Friday when the president decided to stop Mike Mike
Pompeo from going to North Korea for this planned trip and then talked about
how China is not where he thought they should be
in terms of trade where are we in this battle with China right now you know the
the way you get a deal whether it's a national security deal with North Korea
and their nuclear weapons or a trade deal that begins to give some level of
fairness from China is you've got to be willing to walk away from it the
president is the master of the art of the deal he wants to be there he clearly
will will turn Mike around Mike Pompeo around the secretary in in ours if
there's an opportunity but he's not going to send them there just to have a
pretty portrait of people shaking hands and I think that's the difference in
this negotiator is the deal's off if you're not making progress the deals
back on quickly if you are he's done it before he can do it again but Maria the
thing that I think the American people have to understand is although trade is
a national security issue you cannot continue to give away
hundreds of billions of dollars of the American people's hard-earned money to
China just because China has a bad actor that periodically will misbehave and
they use it as leverage and that's exactly what China continues to do it's
true and they won't even admit that they're taking the IP and that they're
stealing so much technology from the US and forcing the the transfer of text so
we'll see if this strategy works in terms of changing China's behavior we
love having you answer please come back soon great to see accomplishment thank
you
