MEEKS: "It seems Jeff Sessions wants this job so badly that he’s giving in to the pressures applied by the president for to him do several things. Now it is clear, it came out over the week, that the president had asked his, one of his top attorneys to ask Jeff Sessions not to recuse himself from the investigation and session’s job was to protect the president. That’s not what his job is. And then you had on top of that, the president saying that he could do whatever he wanted with the Justice Department. And so here again, we’re in an atmosphere of a foreign government that’s totalitarian where the president is saying that I can go after my political enemies and try to say, we want our institution to put somebody in jail."
