So many times when Sessions was the *only* champion on immigration-control side. Cruz not close. Seems a big loss. twitter.com/amandacarpente…

@kausmickey @amandacarpenter the ag has much control over immigration

@kausmickey True, but a) JS will be more effective in new gig and b) will be amazing to see how many new friends DJT has in the senate.
@kausmickey Interesting, and depressing, take. I hadn’t thought of it this way.
.@kausmickey Maybe replaced with Mo Brooks?
@kausmickey I thought we didn’t need Congress–we already have the laws in place.
@kausmickey a bad pick a AG could torpedo an administration. Much of immigration enforcement is already law. Just needs to be enforced.
@kausmickey Bottom line is w/o Sessions, Trump likely would not have won. If Sessions wants it, he deserves it, and Trump’s happy to oblige.
@kausmickey @amandacarpenter unless whoever is appointed to finish his Senate term is very similar. Quite possible AL gov is Trump friendly
@kausmickey Gov Bentley tweeting he has been in touch with Sessions. Expect Sessions got assurances that gov will appt suitable successor.
@kausmickey @amandacarpenter It seems reasonable to hope that other Senators would copy Session’s career path.
