Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) warned President Trump against firing Attorney General Jeff Sessions on Thursday amid rumors of a major shakeup pending for the Trump administration.

In an interview with Fox News' "Special Report with Bret Baier," Grassley, alongside fellow Judiciary Committee member Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), said simply that he doesn't believe Trump should oust his attorney general despite reported anger over Sessions's handling of the Russia investigation.

"I would only answer your question this way unless you push me on it: I don't think he should be fired," Grassley said.

"It would blow up the committee," Graham agreed. "The chairman has done a wonderful job in getting nominees out of the committee with a lot of [Democratic] obstruction, but if you had to replace the attorney general, Jeff Sessions, with somebody new it would blow the place up."

Sessions has not been handling the Russia investigation. Lazy and sensational writing.

5. Trump has been criticizing Sessions all along for recusing himself. That's what Grassley

was referring to.

Really.

9. "it would blow the place up."

The place was already "blown up" in 2016 when almost the entire GOP decided to collude with Russia along with Drumpf.

And pass the bill protecting Mueller you wouldn't have to worry about Sessions getting fired.
