AG Suggests Openness To Review of Predecessors' Actions
2017-03-10
AP via Instapundit
Attorney General Jeff Sessions suggested Thursday that he would be open to the appointment of an outside counsel to review actions taken by the Justice Department during the Obama administration.

Conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt asked Sessions in an interview if the new attorney general would consider designating an outside counsel "not connected to politics" to take a second look at Justice Department actions that provoked Republican ire in the last eight years. Those include the Fast and Furious gun scandal and the decisions against bringing criminal charges over Hillary Clinton's email practices or the Internal Revenue Service's treatment of conservative groups.

#3  During the republic period of Rome, after a console finished their term they were put on trial to account for their behavior during their term.

The 'Judgement' as it were.

#2  During the republic period of Rome, after a console finished their term they were put on trial to account for their behavior during their term. Basically like an impeachment trial of the old president when the new one took over.

This was done to keep them honest (or sneaky) and most were found clean.

It may not be a bad idea to put the entire previous administration and his lackies on trial after every election the way things are going.
