Jefferson Beauregard Sessions
By 
Your nominee for Attorney General:
The man who President-elect Donald Trump will nominate as the 84th attorney general of the United States was once rejected as a federal judge over allegations he called a black attorney “boy,” suggested a white lawyer working for black clients was a race traitor, joked that the only issue he had with the Ku Klux Klan was their drug use, and referred to civil rights groups as “un-American” organizations trying to “force civil rights down the throats of people who were trying to put problems behind them.”
Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.), an early Trump supporter who has been playing a major role on the Trump transition team, met with the president-elect in New York on Thursday. A former aide to Sessions is managing the Justice Department transition. In a statement, the Trump team said the president-elect was “unbelievably impressed” with Sessions.
Any Democratic senator who votes for Sessions should be immediately expelled from the caucus. Meanwhile, I hope you are as ready to put your body on the line to refight the 1950s and 1960s era civil rights movement as I am. Because that’s what is going to be necessary.
