This reported action directly contradicts what Attorney General Sessions told me prior to his confirmation, the Colorado Republican wrote on Twitter. With no prior notice to Congress, the Justice Department has trampled on the will of the voters in CO and other states.
Gardner then threatened to gum up the works for DOJ nominees unless Sessions agrees to reverse his decision.
I am prepared to take all steps necessary, including holding DOJ nominees, until the Attorney General lives up to the commitment he made to me prior to his confirmation, he wrote.

I really dislike him, but it seems he's not quite as dumb as I thought.
He's so scared these days that he's been making noises that sound like he's a Dem hoping to squeak past his bid for reelection.
I keep writing to him telling him that I can hardly wait to contribute to his next Dem opponent and work for that campaign with all the energy I can muster.
No, he's not dumb. But his weaselly bullshit doesn't fly past without stinking up the joint.
