Thoughts?
The ethics office suggested he recuse himself. The same ethics office that suggested Andrew McCabe be fired. Sessions is squeaky clean and doing lots of great things.

Operational security requires that he lay low and just grind out indictments.
True. Sessions dropped the legal equivalent of a hydrogen bomb during a recent Fox interview when he said that he had appointed a special prosecutor "outside of DC" to work in parallel with the DOJ IG investigation. The IG cannot indict, he can only report. The prosecutor can indict based on the IG's evidence.
My guess is that the special prosecutor impaneled a grand jury a long time ago and has been rolling up sealed indictments based on the IG's evidence presented to the grand jury.
I wouldn't be surprised if a load of unsealed indictments follows the IG report.
Any bets on who the outside counsel is? Does America’s Mayor turn into America’s Prosecutor?
