Sen. Claire McCaskill (D., Mo.) tweeted on Thursday that she has never met or called the Russian ambassador to the United States, but her past tweets refute that claim.
McCaskill's assertion came after reports surfaced that Attorney General Jeff Sessions had spoken with Ambassador Sergey Kislyak twice last year.
"I've been on the Armed Services Com for 10 years," McCaskill wrote early Thursday morning. "No call or meeting w/Russian ambassador. Ever. Ambassadors call members of Foreign Rel Com."

However, a tweet from McCaskill's same account almost four years earlier, on Jan. 30, 2013, said she was "off to" a "meeting W/Russian Ambassador."

Another tweet two years later, on Aug. 6, 2015, said that McCaskill had a call with the Russian ambassador because she was "#doing[her]homework" on the Iran nuclear deal.

Ruh roh!
Who finds this info and good for them! :) And us.
We all know where this is heading.
“Are you now talking to or have ever talked to a Russian?”
Salem Witch Trial will spread to dems and finally end this nonsense.
McKaskill, I demand your resignation NOW.........
She needs to resign. She lied!
McCain, of course, says he’s never spoken to a Russian Ambassador either and I bet that’s a lie too.
We demand that crone resign immediately! She lied on a Tweet!!!
One rule about the liberal/socialists is projection: whatever they accuse a conservative of doing, it’s guaranteed they have done the same themselves.
nice investigation for the person who uncovered this

Gee. I wonder how many other Senators and Congresscritters spoke to a Russian last year.
Absolutely.
I used to listen to Radio Moscow on Shortwave, does that count?
What we really need to be investigating is the influence of Saudi Arabia on our political process.
Maybe Putin can publish the names of any current and past rat congressits, who have talked to any Russians during the Obama years.
Then, the evil Russians can document: the date, time, place and the name of the Russians talking to the rats.
The Hillary campaign is pissed. They had a deal with the Russians for help in the election and the Russians came up short.
You know what they say, never say never...
I had dinner at a Panda Express and at the table next to me were a couple Russians speaking, egad Russian. I should be arrested.
