The Trump Administration Will Be the Most Dangerous Since Richard Nixon
22 November 16
rump has picked Alabama Senator Jeff Sessions for Attorney General – to be in charge of enforcing all the laws of the United States and litigating of all cases up to and including the Supreme Court.
Sessions is a virulent conservative who as a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee has opposed immigration reform and refused to cut mandatory minimum prison sentences. He was rejected for a federal judgeship because of racist comments and actions, by a Republican-controlled Senate Judiciary Committee in the Reagan administration. And he has disparaged the Voting Rights Act.
This is a horrendous pick, proving – as if anyone needed further proof – the Trump administration will be the most dangerous since Richard Nixon’s, or perhaps ever.
