US Attorney General Jeff Sessions will testify in public to the Senate Intelligence Committee on Tuesday on his role in the Russia investigation.

Mr Sessions, who wrote to the Senate Intelligence Committee at the weekend, has asked that the hearing be open.

He will face questions about undeclared meetings with Russian officials and the president's firing of the FBI chief.

Media reports last week said Mr Sessions had offered to resign because of tensions with the president.

Senators have meetings, luncheons etc with ambassadors of many countries including Russia all the time.

What I have seen written is that these types of meetings are not what they're talking about when they're asking about "meetings" on these forms. They're just considered to minor. In other words, they are not in any way, shape or form policy meetings.

Just look at all of Schumer's pictures with Putin.

This could also be Sessions way of resigning. It’s obvious the rats are going to put pressure on him via ridiculous rantings. Sessions at that point could say he is a political liability, this won’t end so he should resign. This time Trump will have to accept it.

I hope this isn’t the case. Would prefer to see something along the lines of the 20% Uranium stake the Clintons gave to Russia being illegal and needs to be investigated and prosecuted immediately.

I am feeling very uncomfortable about this. Sessions is beginning to look like a man of limited intellect and judgement.

I think you are right. I have a feeling Sessions has something to say and he sees this hearing as a great place to say it. Maybe he wants to deliver a “bombshell”.

now that a big Democrat Senator said Loretta Lynch needs to be investigated, Sessions can now go after Lynch and Hillary’s corruption.

Limited intellect? At least he can spell "judgment" properly.

Some people are inherent snobs. They can't get past the accent. If someone speaks with a Southern drawl, they are immediately labeled as intellectually inferior.

Try coming to Shelby County, Alabama and spreading that manure.

Hey, wise@$$, it has nothing to do with his accent or origin. It has to do with recusing himself. Without so much as letting Trump know of his decision or even discussing it with him.

I don’t think he would have insisted on an Open meeting/interrogation if he didn’t have something to say that the Left doesn’t want out in the Public...

I’ve read that he reused himself without discussion with the President. If that is how it happened, it looks like just another guy thinking of himself first and doing CYA.

Sessions wanted to keep the office so he could hammer on is number one priority—marijuana laws.
