IT’s starting to seem like lazy boy Jeff Sessions is no different than Loretta Lynch or Eric Holder. The Sessions DOJ is now threatening Devin Nunes not the release the spying memo by members of the Obama regime, FBI and DOJ. With hacks like Jeff Sessions and Rod Rosenstein leading the DOJ, it’s no wonder why that department is so rife with corruption. Of all the picks Trump made for his cabinet, Jeff Sessions has been without a double the absolute worst possible selection for Attorney General. Should have just left Sally Yates in there.
Session DOJ threatens Devin Nunes not to release spying memo |

A top Justice Department official is urging House Intelligence Chairman Devin Nunes not to release a much-buzzed-about memo circulating in Congress that purportedly reveals government surveillance abuses.
In the letter, which Fox News has obtained, Assistant Attorney General Stephen Boyd wrote, “We believe it would be extraordinarily reckless for the Committee to disclose such information publicly without giving the Department and the FBI the opportunity to review the memorandum and to advise the HPSCI of the risk of harm to national security and to ongoing investigations that could come from public release.”
Boyd continued, “Though we are currently unaware of any wrongdoing relating to the FISA process, we agree that any abuse of that system cannot be tolerated.”
Nunes is traveling this week in the Middle East. But the demand is not being well-received on Capitol Hill.
“It’s really stupid they would try to block us from releasing the memo,” a senior congressional intelligence source told Fox News. “It only makes it worse for them. And it is more evidence that DOJ is trying to obstruct our investigation.”
The four-page memo is being described by lawmakers as “shocking,” “troubling” and “alarming,” with one congressman likening the details to KGB activity in Russia.
