The meeting is under scrutiny in Special Counsel Robert Mueller's Russia investigation. “Americans rightly have many questions about this meeting, and today, we are releasing the transcripts and exhibits from interviews we’ve conducted to allow the public to know what we know," Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, said in a statement. "These materials, taken in their entirety, provide the most complete public picture of the events surrounding the meeting to date. Americans can now review this unfiltered information and arrive at their own conclusions.”

The only and obvious conclusion is that Mueller is peeing into the wind and the media is lying - neither is at all surprising. The only surprise is that the DOJ is allowing this circus to continue.

For a twenty minute meeting that was certainly not private, it has certainly garnered tens of hours of investigation and hundreds of hours of MSM coverage.

One would think that colluding with the Russian experts/masters of American presidential elections, it would be done more secretly.

There is only one reason this is being allowed to continue....... Trump understands the game and it serves his interests. Nothing else makes sense. Trump has shown repeatedly that he is a counter-puncher so all of this passivity (discounting tweets and comments) is for a reason. Trump increasingly appears to be the victim of something dirty and the dirty is being investigated quietly by others and publicly by congress.

At some point the counter-punch is coming and so far all he has done is win. I share the frustration, but there is no way Sessions is this inept. I can’t buy that because Trump would not tolerate it. I think Trump is going to time the counter-punch for maximum impact on the November election. As Victor Davis Hanson correctly says..... “he has an animal cunning.” He has drawn out his enemies across the board for a reason.
