May I remind you that congress has had to threaten Sessions with contempt of congress in order to get him to respond to their LAWFUL requests for information in connection with their oversight duties. He was obstructing congress and thwarting a legitimate inquiry. That’s VERY serious stuff my fried.
Sessions is protecting someone and hiding something big.
Congress has used the “threat” for years in many cases to offer legal cover, if needed, for the “threatened” to act in the event his or her superiors have instructed otherwise.
They have also done it, knowing they were never going to act on it, to satisfy their angry or impatient voters.
