Cue the perpetual outrage machine: Jeff Sessions is doing his job. The only recently confirmed Attorney General has taken the well-traveled path of asking Obama appointees to tender their resignation. It is such an entirely predictable action that the Left is beside itself with fury. Yes, they know that Bill Clinton fired 93 US attorneys in one day, but this is a Republican and it cannot be tolerated.

As per the usual, Sessions has asked for the resignation of the 46 US attorneys remaining on the job. There are 94 US attorneys who regularly turn over at the beginning of each new administration. Apparently, a couple have been retained, and the other 45 or so saw the writing on the wall and skedaddled. Sally Yates was not one of them, but she too found her way to the door.

Of course Chuck Schumer and Diane Feinstein are very upset at all the disruption this will cause the government, because they are very serious about not causing interference to the efficiency of our regime.

Schumer said, “By asking for the immediate resignation of every remaining U.S. Attorney before their replacements have been confirmed or even nominated, the President is interrupting ongoing cases and investigations and hindering the administration of justice.”

Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), the ranking Democrat on the Senate Judiciary Committee, said she had met with Vice President Pence and White House Counsel Donald McGahn in January and “asked specifically whether all U.S. attorneys would be fired at once. Mr. McGahn told me that the transition would be done in an orderly fashion to preserve continuity. Clearly this is not the case. I’m very concerned about the effect of this sudden and unexpected decision on federal law enforcement.”

Fake outrage.
