Immigration You have one party that's in favor of open borders, and you have one party that wants to secure the border. And all day long the American people are going to side with the party that wants to secure the border. And not by a little bit. Not 55-45. 60-40. 70-30. 80-20. I'm talking 90-10 on that. Stephen Miller, who, along with Jeff Sessions, concocted the family separation fiasco based on their shared belief that most Americans hate immigrants as much as they do  © 2018 Kwiple.com

Rule of law What makes an officer a principal officer is that he or she reports only only to the president. … A principal officer must be confirmed by the Senate. And that has a very significant conse- quence today. It means that Mr. Trump's installation of Matthew Whitaker as acting Attorney General of the United States after forcing the resignation of Jeff Sessions is unconstitutional. It's illegal. And it means that anything Mr. Whitaker does, or tries to do, in that position is invalid. Neal K. Katyal and George T. Conway III, New York Times, November 8, 2018 © 2018 Kwiple.com

Snapshot If confirmed, Senator Sessions will be required to pursue justice for women, but his record indicates that he won't. He will be expected to defend the equal rights of gay and lesbian Americans, but his record indicates that he won't. He will be expected to defend voting rights, but his record indicates that he won't. He will be expected to defend the rights of immigrants and affirm their human dignity, but his record indicates he won't. His record indicates that as Attorney General he would obstruct the growing national bipartisan movement toward criminal justice reform. Jeff Sessions portrayed by Cory Booker © 2017 Kwiple.com
