Former Attorney General Jeff Sessions to announce Alabama Senate bid on Thursday

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

WASHINGTON (AP) — Former Attorney General Jeff Sessions will announce he's running for his old Senate seat in Alabama.

Sessions is expected to make the announcement on Thursday. His decision to run was confirmed to The Associated Press on Wednesday by two Republicans with direct knowledge of his plans. They were not authorized to discuss it publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity.

Sessions long held the seat he will now pursue but stepped down to serve as President Donald Trump's first attorney general. He was ousted after enduring public mocking from Trump for recusing himself from special counsel Robert Mueller's Russia investigation.

Democratic Sen. Doug Jones won the 2017 special election to fill Sessions' seat.

1. Unless roy moore somehow gets the nomination, I don't think Doug Jones will win.

Unfortunately

2. The race is between Sessions and Tommy Tuberville.

Whoever wins will be the favorite.

4. ohhh

No roy moore?

9. Moore and others are still in

The poster that you replied to just automatically thinks Sessions or Tuberville will get the nomination.

5. Poor Kate! She'll have to turn herself into a pretzel

6. Why is

POS running again??? Sessions just retire.

[drray23]

7. Maybe he wants to win his seat back so he can vote

To convict Trump. Gopers carry grudges like that..

[bdamomma]

8. Hmmm....

unless Sessions is a glutton for punishment. Or just to add another Repig to the Senate??

11. The election is in 2020 though

So if he gets to vote to impeach, it'll have to mean Trump wins in 2020. He wouldn't take office until January 2021.

10. I guess Sessions will be coming back to Washington at the same time Trump is being escorted out...
