President Trump on Wednesday opened a new line of attack against Jeff Sessions, questioning why his embattled attorney general didn't fire the acting FBI director over alleged ties to the Clintons.

"Why didn't A.G. Sessions replace Acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe, a Comey friend who was in charge of Clinton investigation but got big dollars ($700,000) for his wife's political run from Hillary Clinton and her representatives. Drain the Swamp!" Trump tweeted.

McCabe has been a Trump target since the campaign, when the then-GOP nominee questioned the FBI investigation over Hillary Clinton's email server by citing ties between McCabe's wife and the Clintons.

Dr. Jill McCabe was recruited to run for a Virginia state Senate seat as a Democrat by Gov. Terry McAuliffe (D), a longtime Clinton confidant and fundraiser.

Sessions is still hard at work on voter roll purges/voter suppression and on immigration actions. People are too busy watching the "show" than to look behind the curtains. Sessions isn't going anywhere.
