“Sessions is specifically recused on all matters related to the Clinton Foundation”
Try again.
“Attorney General Jeff Sessions, facing a storm of criticism over newly disclosed contacts with the Russian ambassador to the United States, recused himself on Thursday from any investigation into charges that Russia meddled in the 2016 presidential election.”
Thank you for factual comments.
SESSIONS: Mr. Chairman, it was a highly contentious campaign. I, like a lot of people, made comments about the issues in that campaign. With regard to Secretary Clinton and some of the comments I made, I do believe that that could place me objectivity in question. I've given that thought.
I believe the proper thing for me to do, would be to recuse myself from any questions involving those kind of investigations that involve Secretary Clinton and that were raised during the campaign or to be otherwise connected to it.
GRASSLEY: OK. I think, that's -- let me emphasize then with a follow up question. To be very clear, you intend to recuse yourself from both the Clinton e-mail investigation and any matters involving the Clinton Foundation, if there are any?
SESSIONS: Yes.
... recused himself on Thursday from any investigation into charges that Russia meddled in the 2016 presidential election.
That's false. Sessions' recusal is a matter of written record, including giving the reason for recusal. What he recused from was investigations into wrongdoing by the Trump campaign.
The press lies about everything. Never believe what they say, always look for the raw source material.
