Sen. Al. Franken tells CNN's Jake Tapper he thinks Attorney General Jeff Sessions committed perjury when he failed to mention to him his contacts with the Russian ambassador during his confirmation hearings.
JAKE TAPPER, CNN 'THE LEAD' HOST: So, yesterday, Attorney General Sessions sent a letter defending what he told you during his confirmation hearing. Just to bring our viewers back to what this is about, your question talked about the story CNN broke at that moment about whether there may have been contacts between Trump campaign advisors and Russians known to U.S. intelligence and whether U.S. intelligence had been monitoring it.
Here is the end of your question with then-senator, now Attorney General Sessions.
SENATOR AL FRANKEN: 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, ATTORNEY GENERAL: 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 -- did not have communications with the Russians. And I'm unable to comment on.
TAPPER: Since then, it came out that he had actually met with the Russian ambassador twice although he said he did so in his capacity as a senator and not a campaign surrogate. President Trump even went on to say that, Sessions, quote, "could have stated his response more accurately." Sessions yesterday amended his remarks to the committee saying that his answer was correct and that he, quote, "did not mention communications he had with the Russian ambassador over the years because the question did not ask about them."
What's your response, sir?
FRANKEN: That's a ridiculous response. It's not a clarification at all.

B.S.
The then Senator Sessions was asked if he, Sessions, had contact with any Russian concerning the presidential campaign.
Senator Sessions talked to the Russian ambassador, and the ambassadors of two dozen other countries, in his capacity as a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee.
Not the same thing at all, and not the question that was asked of Senator Sessions. Franken should shut his pie hole.
