I am just throwing this out there on FAITH really.
I think the difference between the phony Russia, Russia, Russia investigation which was Obama's attempt to sabotage The Trump Administration on his way out the door, and what is going on with The IG and his Prosecutor is that instead of The Democrat Party and Never Trump RINOs unethically, and I'll even go so far as to say Illegally appointing a Special Counsel in Robert "Uranium One" Mueller in search of a Crime that doesn't exist, and that there is no proof or even evidence of any crime justifying the appointment of a Speical Counsel, The Investigation in to the FBI, FISA abuse and Corruption and BIAS at the FBI & DOJ and Possibly CIA and Obama Administration actually does have EVIDENCE of Crimes. We can list them if we want. They are Facts, with paper trails and financial records, etc. etc.
Following this logic then, Sessions, The AG, and Prosecutor are lining up all their ducks in a row, and when the time comes, they are going to make a FACTUAL CASE for a Special Prosecutor.....THEY WAY THINGS SHOULD BE DONE.
Apparently there are already Criminal Referrals coming from the IG's office, so I ascribe to this line of thinking. It may be, that instead of Sessions being slow to act, and dragging his feet, and obviously insulating himself from this "matter" that he is being methodical, precise, and he, the IG, and Prosecutor and building a Concrete Case to take to Congress, The American People, rather than engage in a half cocked witch hunt based on butt hurt feelings, sore loserism, bias, and a treasonous "Resistance" movement, I.E. an actual COUP launched by high ranking Obama Administration Officials at his direction and with his full knowledge meant to destabilize The New Administration, and create enough of a controversy and chaos and panic even to perhaps get The New President Impeached, which is something The Democrat Party was Lobbying for the Day The President was Elected...
