It took minutes, not hours, for top congressional Democrats to call on Trump's Attorney General Jeff Sessions to resign on Wednesday evening after the WaPo reported that he had allegedly met with the Russian ambassador in the months before the election, meetings that Sessions did not disclose during his confirmation hearings.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) led the effort late on Wednesday night, accusing Sessions of "lying under oath" during confirmation proceedings about his contacts with the Russians.
"Jeff Sessions lied under oath during his confirmation hearing before the Senate. Under penalty of perjury, he told the Senate Judiciary Committee, 'I have been called a surrogate at a time or two in that campaign and I did not have communications with the Russians.' We now know that statement is false," Pelosi said in a statement. She then added that "The Attorney General must resign. There must be an independent, bipartisan, outside commission to investigate the Trump political, personal and financial connections to the Russians.

Yes, that was my thought, they know what AG Sessions is making a priority, some left over rat is feeding them. Fire them all.
This move is a desperate death throe of the Democrat Party.
no words can explain how I feel about the radical left today. Russia this, Russia that. frigging stupid reporters always asking about Russia.
How many investigations do they need? This is not about Russia really, this is about taking attention away form the failed election for them, and the corruption of the Clinton, obama regimes.
There’s nothing left of the horse they’ve been beating for months.
I have an idea. Let’s check into whether into Ms. Pelosi and any other democrat had any (and I mean any) contact with a member of the Russian government before, during or after the election.
excellent reply for when we are attacked for criminality
I disagree that the Dems ever had dignity.
The display they put on at the Joint Adress signed, sealed, and delivered their total lack of class or even a coherent thought process.
The only thing that goes in their favor is that they have the mainstream media in their pocket. And that media is willing to blare their lies on full power.
The American people have proved themselves to be stupid enough to be “afraid” of Russia by electing and re-electing representatives who have sold out American interests overseas, like McCain, Hillary, McAuliffe, etc. That has to be the explanation for the “RUSSIA” narrative.
We deserve the government we get!! And while I am optimistic about Trump, unless he flushes every single holdover bureaucrat and too-many-times-elected Congresscritter, he will face this every day.
Well, Dr. STein is pictured WITH Mike Flynn at the “Russian dinner” for starters.
And Wikileaks is full of references to Hillary’s and Podesta’s Russian contacts!
Be prepared for this lunacy to continue every day. There will be no respite. Only when these lunatics are exiled or ******* will it end. How tiresome. The response to them should be a standing “F YOU”.
I'd be more interested in what contact they had with Planned Parenthood operatives during the retaliation under color of law against James O'Keefe over his Project Veritas baby parts exposé.
That’s what i’m saying.
They were going after Sessions regardless of pizzagate.
They have no shame, no morals, no ethics, no dignity and no love of anything important.
Awesome !
Should never have let Flynn go. Now they smell blood.

But I just saw Jason Chaffetz on Fox calling for Sessions to recuse himself from the 'Russia Probe'
Here go the mighty House conservatives again, the scum.
They are pulling out all stops.
