Just calling it now, nothing will happen to Sessions

I'd love to be proven wrong, but lately it seems like justice is dead. Somebody in the Trump Administration could literally get caught barbecuing puppies and washing them down with kitten blood, and nothing would happen to them. The enemy is in complete control of the government, and they're not interested in prosecuting their own.

there will be 4 years of calling his integrity into question.
And lord help him if he's ever brought up to testify on the Hill...
that's just another invitation to open the bigass can of worms.
You cannot lie to Congress and escape unscathed.

They'll be hamstrung. An independent commission that 'clears' WH and WH associates is their only option. Or WWIII.
