Someone must have lit a fire under Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ bum because he’s now taken an extra step to expedite the process by which documents related to the Hillary Clinton email investigation and other misdeeds are released to the public.

From the Daily Mail:

The Department of Justice has selected a U.S. Attorney to oversee the release of documents associated with the 2016 FBI investigation into Hillary Clinton‘s emails and other controversial cases. U.S. Attorney John Lausch was asked over the weekend by Attorney General Jeff Sessions and FBI Director Christopher Wray if he would handle the DOJ’s process of combing through and redacting thousands of pages of documents, to be handed over to Congress, according to the Washington Post. Lausch, whom Trump picked to lead the U.S. attorney’s office in the Northern District of Illinois, was formally announced as the Justice Department’s pick on Monday.

The Department of Justice released the following statement to confirm its priorities when it comes to the Clinton documents: “By appointing Mr. Lausch to oversee this specific document production, our goal is to assure Congress, the President, and the American people that the FBI is going to produce the relevant documents and will do so completely and with integrity and professionalism.”

It’s about damn time we’ll get to the bottom of the Clinton email scandal. Trump has been hard on Jeff Sessions lately and has been urging him to use his position to out Clinton as a criminal. Just over the weekend, he criticized the DOJ for taking too long with its investigation:

Lawmakers of the House Judiciary Committee are angrily accusing the Department of Justice of missing the Thursday Deadline for turning over UNREDACTED Documents relating to FISA abuse, FBI, Comey, Lynch, McCabe, Clinton Emails and much more. Slow walking – what is going on? BAD! — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 7, 2018

Sessions responded in turn, ordering DOJ lawyers to look into all types of Clinton misdeeds. Let’s hope he gets to the bottom of the Clinton corruption soon and shares his findings with the public.
