Reject Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III U.S. Attorney General Nomination Urges A Statement From 1,424 Law Faculty At 180 Law Schools In 49 States

     Monday, 9 January 2017, WASHINGTON, D.C. - "STATEMENT FROM LAW SCHOOL FACULTY OPPOSING NOMINATION OF JEFF SESSIONS FOR THE POSITION OF ATTORNEY GENERAL" specifying the many grave concerns of the now listed 1,424 law professors from 180 law schools in 49 states compelling them to urge the United States Senate Committee On The Judiciary to reject the nomination of Jeff Sessions to be U.S. Attorney General for interested readers is at the first link below.
     Previously Jeff Sessions was only the second nominee for a federal judgeship in half a century to be rejected by the Senate Judiciary Committee for full Senate consideration due to what Senators deemed to be his blatantly racist history including his actions in his official capacity in an Alabama U.S. Attorney's office with at least one Senator on the Senate Judiciary Committee further calling for him immediately to resign that position as he was a "disgrace" unfit to represent the United States government in any capacity.
     Currently the Senate Republican majority leadership seeks to rush through vital proceedings for Jeff Sessions along with a rash of other highly suspect and controversial "Siberian Candidate" Trump nominees for other Senate "Advice and Consent" positions without legally required full vetting largely reportedly delayed by many of the nominees' own failures to timely fully complete required financial and other disclosure questionnaires, provide other required information and then be subject to passing required full rigorous FBI background and Office of Government ethics investigations.
     Jeff Sessions reportedly has returned to the Senate Judiciary Committee grossly incomplete and illegally untruthfully answered questionnaires apparently seeking to obfuscate and mischaracterize his long racist history rather as an untruthful one of a civil rights champion. He as well has reportedly senselessly failed to disclose where specifically asked his previous extraordinary rejection by the Committee for full Senate consideration even to hold a federal judgeship.
     All Senators of course anyway are well aware of that which should be disqualifying infamous rejection on his record especially considering that he has demonstrated no succeeding redemption but rather continued to act consistently with his prior disqualifying actions for which he had been ejected amplified by his further positions including Jeff Sessions abysmal record of objection to unjust mandatory sentencing reductions being retroactive as well as his absolute rejection of any realistic solution for the challenges posed by originally illegal aliens who have been fully positively integrated into U.S. society including serving in this country's armed forces all of which are set out for interested readers in the second link below.
     Finally Jeff Sessions has a a long record he also cannot hide shedding further light on his "conscience" such as it is of unbridled enthusiasm while an Alabama attorney general in seeking and largely succeeding in brutally having as many defendants put to death as quickly as possible even when they were known to him and often recognized by appellate courts to be mentally retarded, mentally incapable by legally recognized subnormal intelligence, obviously insane, and other such totally incapacitated defendants.
     Jeff Sessions enthusiastic pursuit of the death penalty in violation of the U.S. Constitution further included prosecution of those represented by clearly inadequate state appointed counsel including one with only one year of legal experience, another defense counsel appointed and paid by the state $4.95 an hour who provided a totally inadequate legal defense commensurate with that pay rate, and many other death penalty defendants inadequately represented by State appointed defense attorneys who should have been recognized pursuant to the U.S. Constitution as currently ineligible for the death penalty under such circumstances with Jeff Sessions nevertheless enthusiastically without regard for the U.S. Constitution pursuing the death of all such defendants knowing that in every case with the full resources of the government at his disposal Jeff Sessions could bravely and boldly face State appointed defense counsel including for defendants facing the death penalty which counsel were paid no more than $1,000 in total by the State for providing the full legal representation of any person facing the death penalty. All were nevertheless relentlessly pursued by Jeff Sessions in his ongoing crusade for death by State of as many people as quickly as possible.

     UPDATE: Jeff Sessions according to the editorial board of the New York Times "smooth-talked" his way through his first day Tuesday, 10 December 2017, of his first before the Senate Judiciary Committee with that editorial urging that readers should be "outraged" at the prospect of Sessions' being put in charge of the Department of Justice enabling him to attempt to engage in a 4-year dismemberment of the Obama Administration's accomplishments there.
     Sessions spent a long day Tuesday starting before the proceeding began strategically holding his cute grandchild in his lap before being fed hours of mostly softball garbage questions by Republicans on the Committee interspersed with colloquies about their state college football rivalries focusing on the Alabama "Crimson Tide" and interspersed with compliments about how well-behaved his grandchildren were listening to them spew their completely worthless questions or just statements of vapid observations such as what a "friendly" and "polite" colleague to them he had been in the Senate.
     Meanwhile the Republican senators spent most of the rest of their time doing things such as conveniently overlooking or even attempting to rehabilitate Sessions' receipt of awards from many suspect organizations as far as "justice" is concerned as well as Sessions unremitting praise in the press which he for some unfathomable reason even continued to expound upon to the Senators in the hearing room even after his most vigorous Democratic questioner Senator Al Franken of Minnesota pointed out that the individual Sessions so enthusiastically endorsed was a leading figure in what was identified by the Southern Poverty Law Center as a "hate group". Sessions blandly observed that that organization was not the "final arbiter" on what groups qualified as "hate groups". The Republicans and others also showed no interest in pursuing his lies (or at least extremely misleading responses) and omissions on his Senate Judiciary Committee questionnaire answers starkly observed by Senator Franken.
     Other than Senator Franken mentioned above the minority Democrats on the Committee mostly toothlessly questioned Sessions on some matters of concern to them most of which he dismissed as "hypothetical" or with his endless repetition that he was committed to "enforcing existing laws" if confirmed as U.S. Attorney General. Reportedly rapidly up and coming Democratic Senator Cory Booker of New Jersey (apparently "outraged" per the Times recommendation) is expected to make history in Sessions' continuing hearing by taking the unprecedented step of testifying in a Cabinet confirmation hearing against fellow Senate colleague Sessions and may be joined in testifying against Senator Sessions by Democrat Rep. John Lewis who has been described as a "civil rights icon". Readers interested in more information on the New York Times editorial on Sessions mentioned above can go to the fourth link below.
