Sessions values self preservation above loyalty to Der Fuhrer, which is a cardinal sin among Nazis.

He's going out.

I think people are missing something: recess appointments. Specifically,

Quote from: Article II, Section 2 of the U.S. Constitution
The President shall have Power to fill up all Vacancies that may happen during the Recess of the Senate, by granting Commissions which shall expire at the End of [Congress'] next Session.

And, Congress is set to go on its Summer Recess Monday, July 31 through September 4. If Congress goes on recess, Trump can appoint an AG without Congressional approval.

With Paul Ryan having pointed out that Mueller is a solid Republican, I wouldn't be surprised if he straight up ordered the relevant committee chairs to appoint their own special investigator, one who's answerable to Congress and not the executive. That person could probably use Mueller's work, too; Mueller is using Preet Bharara's, after all. (Hell, Congress might decide to stick it to Trump and choose Mueller.)

Trump's alienating the only people standing between himself and impeachment (Ryan and McConnell) and it's hilarious to watch.
Quote from: Jordan Duram
It doesn't concern you, Sister, that kind of absolutist view of the universe? Right and wrong determined solely by a single all-knowing, all powerful being whose judgment cannot be questioned and in whose name the most horrendous acts can be sanctioned without appeal?

Quote from: Supreme Court of Canada
Being required by someone else’s religious beliefs to behave contrary to one’s sexual identity is degrading and disrespectful.

If Trump keeps alienating those two...

Given McConnell's similar look to Walder Frey, I wouldn't be surprised if he organized a marriage between a member of Trump's family / extended family and someone in his family, and then brought in some crossbows to the wedding...

I wonder if he is going to stop pretending to be pro-LGBT?
No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

No, just because he makes laws and policies that hurt LGBT people it doesn't mean that he wouldn't continue trying to make people believe that he is pro-LGBT, but will that end now or is this just another day ending in y when Trump lies and gets away with it?

...And the next step: https://theguardiansofdemocracy.com/trump-pence-administration-argue-lgbt-people-arent-protected-discrimination-civil-rights-act/

EDIT:

Also note that when Trump tweeted:

Quote
After consultation with my Generals and military experts, please be advised that the United States Government will not accept or allow......

...Assuming that you hadn't read the other tweets and heard the story. How do you think his declaration would continue? Because the brass in Pentagon assumed that Trump was going to threaten North Korea or possibly even declare a war.

It wasn't until 9 minutes later when he made the second tweet that they could stop holding their breaths as they saw that he was "just" talking about discriminating trans soldiers.

I saw this shit coming last year. "Fucking moron" is too kind to these people. But hey, they have their "morals," whatever that means.
