Jeff Sessions, Trumps new AG and Former Campaign Advisor, lied about his Russian contacts

a reply to: Indigo5

She said she did not meet with the Russian Ambassador. Another committee meets with ambassadors.

Then history shows she does meet with ambassadors.

No more needs to be said.

It's not brain rot its trolling. is it that hard to see? The average person does not care either way. It is sarcasm to point out how this is being blown out of proportion acting like US government officials do not meet with Russian officials ever.

I think a full open investigation of all sides would reveal more than the Democrats want to know. Go ahead and open the can of worms....I think they will crawl all over the two-faced hypocritical screeching Dem-lib idiots, including the Clintons and John Podesta's real Russian ties.

What did schumer talk about with Putin? Hopefully the NSA listened

Will Schumer Disavow?

The picture above was taken in 2003 as Russian President Vladimir Putin, right, enjoys a Krispy Kreme doughnut and coffee with Senator Charles Schumer from New York as Putin visits the first New York gas station of the Russian company Lukoil

...See how easy that is? When folks don't hide their meetings and lie to reporters about the meetings ever taking place?

It is not the fact that anyone talks to the Russians...It is the secrecy and lies that surrounded and followed those meetings that is in question..

Please tell me you choose not to abuse your own thinking centers so badly that you trained yourself not to be able to make the distinction?

Sessions didn't have some secretive meeting with Russians behind the bushes. He had a scheduled meeting with an Ambassador during the Ukraine fighting.
And when he was asked a question about Russia a year later, he probably didn't remember when exactly the meeting had taken place. He wasn't having discussions with the Russians.

And I'm not a fan of how you claimed what I said was a lie earlier when what I said was not a lie. You simply assumed I meant something else.
You sir proved to me that you are quick to call people liars and assume they are being deceptive even when it is not the case.

NOTE: Trey Gowdy just made a statement on Fox News regarding the Russian probe, without revealing any confidential information, to be very cautious of what you are reading in The Washington Post or the New York Times.

That jumped out at me.

I think you think I think I am serious.

I also seen it
I believe He said Comey Briefed him and others on the "russian Boogeyman". Gowdy said he has never been in this much contact with the FBI in his 6 years over something. The meeting was classified?
All he said he could say about the briefing was NYT and WaPo are fake news, but he said it politely.

Trump gave a fantastic speech the other night, tried to unify the country, which shares the you know what out of the democrats, since as of late they are all about capitalizing on our divisions. They are scared and desperate, and then this story breaks a couple days later to deflect from Trumps popularity rebound. They want to keep the pot stirred and keep wearing him down until public opinion tanks and the republicans capitulate. Its really despicable IMHO and it will be a very long time before I vote for them again. Disgusting. People are talking about a Manchurian president analogy but I think the real GLOBALIST Manchurian president just left and his replacement was defeated thank god.

So the the question from Franklin did not ask him if he talked to the Russians, Franklin asked him what would he do if someone from the Trump camp talked to the Russians in association with the Trump campaign.

Sessions said he knows nothing of anyone in the Trump camp that talked to the Russians, the key here is the question asked talked to the Russians in association with the Trump campaign

The Senator like most Senators deal with Ambassadors every week including the Russians. These are all normal events for them to do, and Senator Blunt said he has met with over 20 in six weeks including Russian.

So once again the democrats are trying to undermine this administration as best they can, and even did their dog and pony show of coming out on stage as a group to say Sessions should resign...

Am I the only one that is seeing this for what it is?

The man has recused himself from an investigation CRITICAL to the continued effectiveness of the Trump Administration over the issue (that would have possibly been one of the most important of his career) and some are still denying that the issue exists, arguing about what he meant, trying to drag in past history, insulting other members, playing some of the most guttersnipe party games I've ever seen.

This is nothing more than a blatant denial of reality.

It's done.

Why so defensive? What do you have to hide?

The problem is the DNC wouldn't let the FBI investigate their servers. The House Committee can only use the FBI if I remember correctly.

a reply to: Gryphon66

Are you kidding me. He recused himself because of the amount of screaming and hissing that would happen if he did not. IT allows the investigation go forward without Dems claiming its tainted.

Gowdy just came out and said the briefing with comey totally refutes your comment.

"Have you been in contact with anyone connected to any part of the Russian government about the 2016 election"

Answer "No"

That's not a lie..

Well...YES it is...

In as much as you lied about the question asked.

I copied and pasted the question from the Original Post.

You are referring to the letter he answered to the confirmation hearing..

The oral testimony was this:

Al Frankin:

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?"

Jeff 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."

Question..Since when is being Accussed of being something a admission of being one? He said he has been Called a surrogate from time to time,but does not admit he IS one does he? Since we are going by the word literally here.

a reply to: Signals

Jeff Sessions was asked about contact with the Russians in the context of the false dossier. He replied that he had no contact in the way that Frankin asked him about. As a member of the foreign relations committee or whatever committee he was on he had contact with the Russian Amb. He was NOT acting for the campaign but as a US Senator of which he was one.
The Deplorables are strong it's the republicans we have to worry about. They seem to be more then willing to throw each other under the bus to appease the socialists in the govt.

4 months later

Apologies. I thought you were discussing sessions oral testimony. Not the written question. I was wrong.

He was being funny with the "time to time but" you can see his smile if you watch the video.

Sessions was the first back Trump and never waivered. He was an advisor, surrogate and then some. Travelled with him and introduced him at Rallies etc.

CLinton was all smiles too. Just because you smile dont mean you are being dishonest. HE might have found it silly at the time.
