To understand why Trump wants to fire AG Sessions, ask who his replacement would be and what the political value is and don’t leave out the loyalty oath.
I can’t think of one replacement for AG Sessions that does not bring more corruption to the Trump White House. Trump wants the AG to conduct all the defense of the President. Recently Trump even criticized McGhan.
He wants prosecutorial powers at his finger tips to reek havoc and distract from all his problems. He wants to sue for any negative comment by anyone. He wants the powers of the AG for that purpose.
Trump doesn’t care about the work Sessions conducts for the country. He wants every person in US Justice working on his problems and carrying out retribution.
What is Jeff Sessions doing that is inappropriate? Trump thinks all the work Jeff Sessions does is inappropriate because Sessions is not doing what Trump wants. Trump wants the country to fear him. He doesn’t care how he achieves that.

California’s summer (click here) of deadly wildfires and dangerous heatwaves will soon be the new normal if nothing is done to stop climate change, a report released on Monday warns.
City heatwaves could lead to two to three times as many deaths by 2050, the report says. By 2100, without a reduction in emissions, the state could see a 77% increase in the average area burned by wildfires. The report also warns of erosion of up to 67% of its famous coastline, up to an 8.8F (4.9C) rise in average maximum temperatures, and billions of dollars in damages....
...Rising temperaturescould lead to up to 11,300 additional deaths in 2050, the report says, and the overall number of days marked by extreme heat will “increase exponentially in many areas”.
The effects of those extreme heat days will probably weigh most heavily on the state’s most vulnerable residents, including the more than 100,000 people who are homeless in California, many of whom live on the streets without reliable access to fans, air conditioners, or running water.
“The 2006 heatwave killed over 600 people, resulted in 16,000 emergency department visits, and led to nearly $5.4bn in damages,” the assessment reports. “The human cost of these events is already immense, but research suggests that mortality risk for those 65 or older could increase tenfold by the 2090s because of climate change.”...
Background checks are EFFECTIVELY defunded by the US Department of Justice.
If the background checks can be accomplished in three days because of cuts in funding that don't allow fully staffed offices, then the background check system is effectively defunded.

..."The suspect clearly targeted other gamers (click here) that were in a back room at the Chicago Pizza participating in this gaming tournament," Jacksonville Sheriff Mike Williams said of Katz at a news conference Monday afternoon. "The suspect walked passed patrons who were in other parts of the business and focused his attention on the gamers."
Meanwhile, court records obtained by ABC News in Baltimore from a divorce and child custody battle between Katz's parents show that Katz was treated in 2011 for mental health issues and that his mother informed the court that her son was suffering from depression and "affective disorders." Records also show that David Katz was once prescribed the antidepressants Risperdal and Fluoxetine....

Washington, DC — Today, Giffords, (click here) the gun violence prevention organization founded by former Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords and Navy combat veteran and NASA astronaut Captain Mark Kelly, responded to President Trump’s budget announcement, which includes a 16% cut to grants for states to upload prohibiting records to the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS), the databases that allow gun dealers to quickly ascertain whether a potential purchaser falls into a prohibited category before going through with a gun sale. National Criminal History Improvement Program (NCHIP) and NICS Act Record Improvement Program (NARIP) grants are critical funding sources that have proven instrumental to states’ ability to report prohibiting records to NICS, particularly prohibiting domestic violence records. The FY 2017 omnibus funded these programs at $73 million. President Trump’s proposed budget cut funding for FY 2019 down to $61 million....
