Sessions is a man with a mission. Trump, of course, believes that the mission should be “Protect Trump,” but Sessions knows that the mission is to put the uppity back into their proper place with plenty of head-breakin’ and felony-convictin’ and vote-suppressin’. ---

In the southern hemisphere, you have to turn switches clockwise to turn them off, but the UCP only has switches that turn off counter-clockwise; **kambucta** , being stuck in the antipodes, has no choice but to do it the hard way. ---
