Theories:
Sessions played his part as planned by recusing himself to put the DS at ease while pushing the sealed indictments in the background. He put up with the occasional comments from Trump to mask his cooperation. Then, when it seemed more trouble than it was worth to get him “unrecused” he fell on his professional sword, resigned, and got out of the way so Whitaker could push RR aside at the right moment.
POTUS would like to push the declas forward, but that’s a huge bargaining chip he’s holding over Pelosi and Schumer’s heads at the moment. If delaying or stopping declas gets him full funding for the wall and taking impeachment talk off the table then Trump would probably make the deal. If they renege, he can always declas at any time, just like he says.
If BC and HRC get taken down with the CF investigation,then Trump may not care that much about FISA abuse focused on the past 2016 campaign and private email servers. He can hold the declas docs in reserve even during a second term.
Am concerned about numerous unreported attempts to take POTUS out. Unconfirmed reports have attempts on JFK before Dallas. Worried the dark forces will keep trying and just might get one past the USSS someday.
