to Franken:
File formal charges against a fellow Senator then, meathead
I hope he files a countersuit
Senators and congressmen have immunity under the speech and debate clause. They can say just about anything and get away with it and they do frequently. I doubt Sessions’ testimony would fall outside that protection since he was a sitting senator at the time.
Plus, Franken’s question or whatever it was limited the response to contacts with Russians as a campaign surrogate. Franken was asking about contacts in general.
