Flynn down, Sessions to go?
2017-03-02
Then-US Senator Jeff Sessions spoke twice last year with Russia's ambassador, encounters he did not disclose when asked during his confirmation hearing to become attorney general about possible contacts between Trump's campaign and Russian officials, the Washington Post reported on Wednesday, citing Justice Department officials.

One of the meetings was a private conversation between Sessions and Russian Ambassador Sergei Kislyak that took place in September in the senator's office, at the height of what US intelligence officials say was a Russian cyber campaign to upend the US presidential race, the Post reported.

#4  Question..... can Trump go to his head of CIA and request he release all this evidence that the NYT and WP sources claim they have? Or maybe as the new director he doesn't know who he can trust?

I'm beginning to hope Trump and Brannon are as mean as they have been painted. Time for some street fighting.

#3  During a town hall with Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) on CNN Wednesday evening, Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) said that if Sessions had spoken with the Russian ambassador, “then for sure you need a special prosecutor.”

At what point can we consider McCain and Graham (D)? Quote comes from here.

#2  Sessions talked to a Russian ambassador. Would a sitting Senator not have the legal right to talk with a Russian ambo? I recall when Nancy Pelosi traveled to Syria to visit with Assad while George W. was POTUS. Is there a double standard going on here?
