Welcome to General Chat - GAW Community Area
This General Chat area started off as a place for people to talk about things that are off topic, however it has quickly evolved into a community and has become an integral part of the GAW experience for many of us.
Based on its evolving needs and plenty of user feedback, we are trying to bring some order and institute some rules. Please make sure you read these rules and participate in the spirit of this community.
Rules for General Chat
-
Be respectful to each other. This is of utmost importance, and comments may be removed if deemed not respectful.
-
Avoid long drawn out arguments. This should be a place to relax, not to waste your time needlessly.
-
Personal anecdotes, puzzles, cute pics/clips - everything welcome
-
Please do not spam at the top level. If you have a lot to post each day, try and post them all together in one top level comment
-
Try keep things light. If you are bringing in deep stuff, try not to go overboard.
-
Things that are clearly on-topic for this board should be posted as a separate post and not here (except if you are new and still getting the feel of this place)
-
If you find people violating these rules, deport them rather than start a argument here.
-
Feel free to give feedback as these rules are expected to keep evolving
In short, imagine this thread to be a local community hall where we all gather and chat daily. Please be respectful to others in the same way

Q Drop #987 — Full Decode
This is a two-part drop, both posted within minutes of each other, that together make a single argument: Sessions was never asleep at the wheel — the Huber/Horowitz arrangement was the move all along.
Part 1 — The Breitbart Link (Turley on Huber)
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2018/03/31/turley-sessions-using-utah-federal-prosecutor-much-better-trump-2nd-special-counsel/
Q links the Breitbart article about law professor Jonathan Turley's analysis of Sessions appointing John Huber, U.S. Attorney from Utah, to work in tandem with DOJ Inspector General Michael Horowitz.
The key points from that article:
Q's questions on this:
Part 2 — The USAM Link (Sessions' Recusal Scope)
Original URL in the drop (updated link): https://www.justice.gov/jm/jm-1-7000-media-relations
Sessions' recusal statement: https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/attorney-general-sessions-statement-recusal
Q links to the DOJ's media relations policy (USAM 1-7000) and asks: "What is Sessions SPECIFICALLY recused from?"
The answer from Sessions' own statement: Sessions recused himself specifically from "any existing or future investigations of any matters related in any way to the campaigns for President of the United States."
Sessions cited Title 28, Section 45.2 — "Disqualification arising from personal or political relationship" — which states that DOJ employees should not participate in investigations of a campaign in which they served as a campaign advisor.
The implication Q is drawing: Sessions' recusal is narrowly scoped to campaign-related matters — meaning the Russia/Mueller investigation. It does not recuse him from investigations into the Clinton Foundation, Uranium One, FISA abuse, or DOJ/FBI misconduct. That's exactly where Huber and Horowitz were operating.
The USAM 1-7000 link is about media relations and confidentiality — DOJ personnel generally will not confirm the existence of or otherwise comment about ongoing investigations. This is why nothing was being publicly announced about Huber — policy prohibits it.
"Watch the EO's" — Executive Orders from Trump had been expanding investigative authorities and anti-corruption/asset seizure powers. Q is pointing to those as the legal framework powering this operation quietly running in Utah.
The Unified Message of Drop #987
Q is telling anons: Stop worrying that Sessions is recused and doing nothing. The apparent inaction on the Russia front was intentional cover. Meanwhile:
The seeming silence was the operation running exactly as designed.
You should make this a post DarQ! 👏
