Democratic lawmakers are calling on Attorney General Jeff Sessions to resign after reports surfaced that he had meetings with the Russian ambassador to the U.S. during the presidential election. Sessions denied any communication with the Russians during his confirmation hearing.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi: "After lying under oath to Congress about his own communications with the Russians, the Attorney General must resign," she said in a statement released late Wednesday night. "Sessions is not fit to serve as the top law enforcement officer of our country."
Sen. Elizabeth Warren Warren: The situation is "not normal," she wrote on Twitter. "We need a real, bipartisan, transparent Congressional investigation into Russia. And we need Attorney General Jeff Sessions who should have never been confirmed in the first place to resign. We need it now."
Rep. Elijah Cummings, a ranking member on the House Oversight Committee: "It is inconceivable that even after Michael Flynn was fired for concealing his conversations with the Russians that Attorney General Sessions would keep his own conversations secret for several more weeks... Sessions should resign immediately."
Not only no but hell no
This story is three days old.
Fear that a prosecutor will indict you is not a good reason to ask him to resign.
The Dems are about to go all out to distract from wiretapping
So much has happened in the interim that this might as well be from last year.
These damned lefties got a scalp and that should be the ONLY ONE they get!
Trump's Twitter sh!t-storm that started on Friday basically made the Jeff Sessions story seem like it was relevant 25 years ago, not last week. LOL.
You beat me to it. LOL. I was thinking 25 years ago.
Lurkinanloomin calls on Reps. Pelosi and Cummings and Sen. Warren to resign.
Pelosi has meet with the russians..maybe trump should wire her
Wake me when Sessions indicts any Demonicrat or media traitors.
Thats centurys in modern news cycles.
Did you just wake up from a deep sleep?
It appears that the Obama administration set up the meeting with the Russian ambassador. The ambassador asked Sessions for a meeting and Sessions had no idea why. Considering that Sessions was merely a "surrogate" (that is, made some speeches supporting Trump), not part of the campaign operation, and given that there were 2 or 3 others in the room, it wouldn't have occurred to Sessions to talk campaign tactics with the ambassador even if there was collusion going on (which there wasn't)...so there was no reason why he would have thought that meeting in his office had any relation to what Al Franken questioned him about.
He’s been in office a day and a half and you expect him to have already finished what takes many months or more?
I want him out— he is SPINELESS.
Those 3 can all go to Hell and the sooner the better.
In fact, those 3 are the jackals that need to resign!
Those 3 jackals need to resign, for the collective good of our Republic.
I am still waiting on a democrat to step up and show us how we’re going to fix the obamacare train wreck.
Will one democrat step up and show us?
Democrats offer no solutions to any of America’s problems. That’s why they spew diversionary BS all day.
