What I don't get is that John McCain and Lindsey Graham's initials were floated and people were posting that they were going to be arrested soon. This vote is going to be so close that if those 2 vote no Sessions won't be confirmed. Pizzagate doesn't seem to be a Democrat only issue and it doesn't seem right that a few corrupt republicans votes can't be found to kill Sessions chances. It seems like things are going to break wide open soon but I still remain skeptical that a large number of politicians will be indicted shortly.
If Pizzgate isn't party specific and a republicans are involved, they won't vote to confirm Sessions. Like MYUSAa2017 said this vote will be very telling.
They may not vote to confirm him and that will be telling, but if that happens, he will still be appointed the AG position. Obama put forth legislation that allows a president to supersede the house for his appointees.

Don't forget about the nuclear option. Sessions will get in regardless of the vote, thanks to Obama!
