Flynn and Sessions memory regarding meetings with Russians

Did he deny having those meetings too?

FRANKEN: Okay. CNN has just published a story, and I'm telling you this about a news story that's just been published. I'm not expecting you to know whether or not it's true or not. But CNN just published a story alleging that the intelligence community provided documents to the president-elect last week that included information that, quote, “Russian operatives claimed to have compromising personal and financial information about Mr. Trump.” These documents also allegedly say, quote, “There was a continuing exchange of information during the campaign between Trump's surrogates and intermediaries for the Russian government.”

Now, again, I'm telling you this as it's coming out, so you know. But if it's true, it's obviously extremely serious and if there is any evidence that anyone affiliated with the Trump campaign communicated with the Russian government in the course of this campaign, what will you do?

SESSIONS: Senator Franken, I'm not aware of any of those activities. I have been called a surrogate at a time or two in that campaign and I didn't have — did not have communications with the Russians, and I'm unable to comment on it.

Sarah Isgur Flores, Session's spokeswoman, explained in a separate statement to The Post on Wednesday night: “He was asked during the hearing about communications between Russia and the Trump campaign — not about meetings he took as a senator and a member of the Armed Services Committee.”

Mr. Sessions, did you have any conversations with anyone from Russia as a surrogate for the Trump Campaign?

"I met briefly with a Russian Ambassador during the GOP convention, but it had nothing to do with Trumps campaign"

Sessions, as a lawyer, has to know that all questions asked to people under oath by other lawyers or really smart people, the answer is already known by the person asking the question. He was a shoe in for the position. Just answer the question. Why hide the fact that will come out sooner or later?

Yeah - he sure worked hard to hide that meeting as he did it in his office during regular hours and put it on his public calendar. He's a goddamned criminal mastermind, no wonder Putin loves him and made Trump nominate him.

What Jeff Sessions said about Russia, and when

Nice link. Good work.

Sounds like the Senate could ask him about the September 8th meeting.

Do you think he'll remember what they talked about?

"I think the attorney general should further clarify his testimony. And I do think he should recuse himself," said Rep. Jason Chaffetz, the Republican chairman of the House Oversight Committee.

"Jeff Sessions is a former colleague and a friend, but I think it would be best for him & for the country to recuse himself from the DOJ Russia probe," said Sen. Rob Portman, R-Ohio, in a statement.

"Attorney General Sessions should recuse himself from any investigation into Russia," said Rep. Darrell Issa, R-California, in a statement. "We need a clear-eyed view of what the Russians actually did so that all Americans can have faith in our institutions."

"I'm amazed at how many of you are swallowing this shit whole. That the Russkies are now running the US." Said Loosegoose from the Swill via Mio.
