mcgahn. he says that sessions made a huge error, he s very frustrated. a couple people have said one of the few times they ve seen him get genuinely angry as opposed to the blufter that we know the president is prone to was about jeff sessions. he s upset about the russia recusal situation and feels angry and hamstrung about the fact that the executive order that the president himself signed related to a ban on travel a temporary ban, quote/unquote, from muslim majority nations was struck down by the court. this was within the first week of the administration and set the tone going forward and in the president s mind, jeff sessions is tied to everything. lastly, your colleagues just broke some news which is fascinating about jim comey asking jeff sessions not to be left alone again with the president or that he didn t want to be left alone with the president. it s quite striking. essentially you have the fbi director concerned about the position apparently that the presi ....
