Friday on his nationally syndicated radio show, conservative talker Rush Limbaugh took a question from a caller wondering why Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson have been unable to root out some of the elements of the so-called “deep state” in the federal government.
Limbaugh speculated it had not been a focus of President Donald Trump. He went on to add that Sessions had to be wondering “what the hell is going to happen” with DACA given Trump had reportedly struck a deal with House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY).
“Poor Jeff Sessions – Jeff Sessions is an unique position all by himself,” Limbaugh said. “He’s got the job he’s dreamed of having. He’s wanted to run the Department of Justice, be attorney general, law enforcement head-honcho in this country or a prominent judgeship for a long time. And he signed on to the Trump campaign because Trump is out there saying, ‘We’re going to build a wall, we’re not going to let illegals in anymore, we’re going to get serious about kicking them out, putting them back in line, coming in here legally and so forth. He signed up – he signed up early. He was the first member of the U.S. Senate to endorse Trump, to become part of his team.”
“And now poor Jeff Sessions is in there wondering what the hell is going to happen with this DREAM business,” he continued. “I mean Sessions went out and announced that we are going to start enforcing immigration policy. It wasn’t long after that Trump went out and undercut it by announcing a deal with Chuck and Nancy. So Sessions wants to uphold U.S. law. He wants even stricter law when it comes to immigration. He believes that illegal immigration is destroying our culture, not just our economy and it’s destroying the basic foundation and identity of the country – illegal immigration. And he wants to clamp down on it. He’s focused on that.”
