Something else just occurred to me, if the Russian ambassador guy recorded their entire conversation (in which they definitely discussed the 2016 election), the Russians now have blackmail material on Sessions. Just one more compromised GOP in the White House.

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2017/03/02/us/politics/sessions-russia-timeline.html?_r=0 Here’s a handy timeline of Session’s talks with Russia and the Russia hacking. If anyone thinks that they actually just discussed pleasantries as Sessions claimed, I have a wall in Mexico to sell you.

Annnnd...he had no problems with the leaks when they made Hillary and the DNC look bad. I guess he didn’t realize that leaks don’t always go one way.

Yeah, just like how Flynn “sent Christmas wishes” in that phone call where he definitely didn’t discuss sanctions with Russia.

Putin’s shaking his head at how incompetent his puppets are about covering up their treason: http://www.newyorker.com/humor/borowitz-report/putin-demands-sessions-resign-from-russian-government

Not only does Trump know, but I’m sure all his surrogates did these on his orders. A senior military guy like Flynn isn’t going to go rogue - Trump ordered him to discuss sanctions with Russia.

I have a Bernie bro in my Facebook feed who legit believes that Clinton threatened to kill Bernie’s wife if he didn’t endorse her.

According to the GOP, getting a blow job and lying about it is worse than committing treason and then lying about it.

Even if that video came out, his supporters would just “I thought liberals loved gay people! Now that it’s Republicans/Russians, you’re against it?”

And that’s a bullshit explanation. He was given the questions IN ADVANCE. In his paper questionnaire he also said he had had no contacts with the Russians. It’s not like he was caught by surprise by the question.

I’m pretty sure the timing of this leak about Sessions coming out the day after Trump made his “Presidential” speech is deliberate. They want to take Trump down.

Oh if this has been Obama’s AG, they’d already have drawn up the indictment papers for him to be thrown in prison for perjury.

I was actually surprised he did that much. Paul Ryan gave a speech this morning in the House that he should only recuse himself “regarding the parts of the investigation involving himself”. Huh? He’s the one doing the investigating so of course he’s not going to investigate himself! I was fully expecting a “nothing to…

He’s doing the lawyer equivalent of “That depends on what your meaning of “is” is”

I’m pretty sure if he came, he would have an “accident” on the way to the States.

Yeah, I don’t have much hope the Attorney General who is going to take his place is any less of a puppet of Trump’s.

If this had been Obama’s AG, the House would have already drawn up the indictment papers for him to go to prison for perjury.

Washington Post and NYTimes have been all over this, as has Rachel Maddow. FOX news is of course “This a distraction from Democrats from the positive reviews of Trump’s speech”.
