He remembers it all so vividly now. I mean, he was even fighting for Ukraine and it caused great tension!

 

Notice he has not recused himself from any investigation into flynn lying.

 

He was also wishy washy on whether he's met with anyone besides the ambassador ("I do not recall") and he only said he'd recuse himself from Trump campaign investigations, not Trump administration investigations.

 

Our new AG's first press conference was to deny charges of perjury and conspiring with foreign spies. Earlier in the day, both the White House press secretary and the President himself said they saw no reason for Sessions to recuse himself, and only a few hours later we're getting a (partial) recusal. Truly this administration is a well-oiled machine.

That press conference was so full of bulls*** and contradictions I don't even know where to start.

 

Well, maybe I do. The sky is blue here

So is there going to be any other fallout from him lying under oath? I mean, Bill Clinton was impeached for doing the same thing.

If only someone could give us more information to let us know whether we should investigate for more information.

Two other Trump campaign members met with the Russian ambassador during the RNC.

The only change the Trump campaign demanded to the platform was softening language on Russia.

So....lock him up?

It being an AOL email makes this amusing.

This thing is just going up in flames.

 

I love every second of it.

Another national security adviser to the Trump campaign, J.D. Gordon, also disclosed Thursday that he had met with Kislyak, this time during the Republican National Convention in Cleveland in July. That meeting was first reported by USA Today.

 

Gordon told CNN that along with national security advisers Carter Page and Walid Phares, Gordon stressed to the Russian envoy that he would like to improve relations with Russia. Gordon added that at no time did any inappropriate chatter come up about colluding with the Russians to aid the Trump campaign.

 

"This is not any different than anything I said publicly and on panels," Gordon said.

 

Gordon had advocated for language in the GOP platform that the Ukrainians not be armed in their battle against pro-Russian separatists, an effort was ultimately successful. But Gordon says he was simply advocating what Trump himself had expressed -- that he did not wish to see major war break out over the situation in Ukraine.

So you've also got one of Trump's three key advisors, Jared Kushner, admitting to meeting Kislyak

Kislyak is NOT a spy, Russia contends (hahaha!!!)

Except if that happens you're still left with Pence or Ryan as president...depending on your views towards those two, it could be even worse in terms of partisanship, because Trump at least can float from side to side politically and try to pick off the Democrats and might actually be able to FORGE a compromise on immigration. Of course, that might all be just "reasonable-sounding talk" from the administration and a red herring to distract from a more nefarious reality.

I'd rather have the same policies without the itchy nuclear trigger finger.

"Jeff Sessions is an honest man. He did not say anything wrong. He could have stated his response more accurately, but it was clearly not intentional," Trump said. "This whole narrative is a way of saving face for Democrats losing an election that everyone thought they were supposed to win. The Democrats are overplaying their hand. They lost the election and now, they have lost their grip on reality. The real story is all of the illegal leaks of classified and other information. It is a total witch hunt!"

On Twitter, Massachusetts Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren warned that Sessions should never have been confirmed at all, but now there is reason to remove him.

 

"Now Jeff Sessions is AG -- the final say on the law enforcement investigation into ties between the Trump campaign & Russia? What a farce. This is not normal," she tweeted. "This is not fake news. This is a very real & serious threat to the national security of the United States."

 

So much for the unifying tone TUES night. Out the window already. Both sides firmly entrenched yet again.

STILL talking about winning the election.

It's the only thing they've done right recently.

Trump should just give up, he's in way in over his head and has been on the job a month?

 

How will he make it through 4 years?

Sessions used campaign funds to visit with the Russian ambassador.

That means he lied in response to both frankens broad question and the narrower written question.

And now Trump will go after the conservative Wall Street Journal, too?

 

Trump can't exactly try to push the stock market back down to enact revenge on them, can he?

Do you expect him to act rationally?

I think its funny that he never includes Washington Post in his tirades. It's so clear what he reads/watches and doesn't.

It looks like 8 of the threats against JCC's weren't Trump anti-Semites, they were just a crazy dude trying to harass and intimidate his ex.

Good luck to them, I don't think they'll ever see $30 an hour jobs again with automation hanging around. Maybe this will in fact hurt Trump in 2020.
