Sessions says he’d defy Trump as attorney general if needed
Big Read encourages
reading, dialogue
WASHINGTON (AP) — Alabama
Sen. Jeff Sessions fervently rejected
“damnably false” accusations of
past racist comments Tuesday as he
challenged Democratic concerns about
the civil rights commitment he would
bring as Donald Trump’s attorney
general. He vowed at his confirmation
hearing to stay independent from the
White House and stand up to Trump
when necessary.
Sessions laid out a sharply conserva-
tive vision for the Justice Department
he would oversee, pledging to crack
down on illegal immigration, gun
violence and the “scourge of radical
Islamic terrorism” and to keep open the
Guantanamo Bay prison in Cuba.
But he also distanced himself from
some of Trump’s public pronounce-
ments.
He
said
waterboarding,
a
now-banned
harsh
interrogation
technique that Trump has at times
expressed support for, was “absolutely
improper and illegal.”
Though he said he would prosecute
immigrants who repeatedly enter the
country illegally and criticized as
constitutionally “questionable” an
executive action by President Barack

Obama that shielded certain immi-
grants from deportation, he said he did
“not support the idea that Muslims, as
a religious group, should be denied
admission to the United States.”
Trump earlier in his campaign called
for a temporary total ban on Muslims
entering his country but has more
recently proposed “extreme vetting.”
Sessions asserted that he could
confront Trump if needed, saying an
attorney general must be prepared
to resign if asked to do something
“unlawful or unconstitutional.”
Nothing new came out of the
hearing that seemed likely to threaten
Sessions’ confirmation by the Repub-
lican Senate.
Yet as he outlined his priorities, his
past — including a 1986 judicial nomi-
nation that failed amid allegations that
he’d made racially charged comments
— hovered over the proceedings.
Sessions vigorously denied that he
had ever called the NAACP “un-Amer-
ican.” He said he had never harbored
racial animus, calling the allegations
— which included that he had referred
to a black attorney in his office as
“boy” — part of a false caricature.
“It wasn’t accurate then,” Sessions
said. “It isn’t accurate now.”
He said he “understands the history
of civil rights and the horrendous
impact that relentless and systemic
discrimination and the denial of voting
rights has had on our African-American
brothers and sisters. I have witnessed
it.”
Sessions has solid support from
the Senate’s Republican majority and
from some Democrats in conserva-
tive-leaning states.
But he faces a challenge persuading
skeptical Democrats that he’ll be fair
and committed to civil rights.

novel about the Vietnam War
by Tim O’Brien. The kick-off
event is Thursday at 7 p.m.
at Hurricane Creek Grange
Hall in Joseph. It includes a
book giveaway, a screening
of the documentary “Dick
Cavett’s Vietnam” and pie.
Admission is $5 for adults
and free for students.
The Big Read continues
into February with most
activities free of charge. It
includes film screenings,
guest speakers, a special
veterans’ art exhibit and a
writing workshop.
The event crescendos
with a ’60s fashion show and
dance party Saturday, Feb.
11 at 7 p.m. at the Joseph
United Methodist Church.
The cost is $10. The finale
also features what Mike
Mildo of Fishtrap describes
as a “potluck extravaganza.”
O’Brien’s book is a
semi-autobiographical
account of a young platoon
on a battlefield. They find
themselves dodging sniper
fire and their own misgiv-
ings. A New York Times best
seller, the book was a finalist
for both the 1990 Pulitzer
Prize and National Book
Critics Circle Award.
