Jeff Sessions Urges Melania to Work Harder on Campaign to Stop Cyberbullying
By Andy Borowitz
1:15 P.M.
WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)Saying that the problem is far worse than I imagined, Attorney General Jeff Sessions on Wednesday urged First Lady Melania Trump to intensify her campaign against cyberbullying.
Speaking to reporters from his office at the Justice Department, Sessions said that, whatever Mrs. Trump had done to eliminate the scourge of cyberbullying, It clearly has not been enough.
From my perspective, cyberbullying is very much a growing problem, he said. And with every passing day it gets worse and worse.
Sessions said that, while he understands that Mrs. Trump has many other responsibilities as First Lady, anything you can do to get cyberbullying to stop will be very much personally appreciated by me.
Please help, he said, his voice quavering.
In an official statement released later in the day, the First Lady said that she had kind of forgotten about her campaign to stop cyberbullying but that she would get right on it.

(7,518 posts)Is he doing this snarkily to mimic 45's "You haven't done enough on arresting Hillary"?
Or is he even that clever?

(12,628 posts)One would almost feel sorry for the crap Drumpf has been tweeting about the former senator from Alabama if he wasn't so hateful himself.
Almost. Because Sessions isn't going to quit until he can bring J. Edgar back from the dead to take his place and lead Justice in this country back to the 1910's...
Those times his pappy would commiserate about - "When life was good because everyone knew their place, and if they got too uppity, the law could just take their stuff and bust their heads for being too stupid to live."
