Senator Cotton ripped his colleagues and the press for their Russian Conspiracy theories, saying "We have now heard from six of the eight Democrats on this committee and to my knowledge I don't think a single one of them asked that question. They've gone down lots of other rabbit trails not that question, maybe that is because Jim Comey said last week as he said to Donald Trump that on three times he assured him he was not under investigation. Maybe it's because multiple Democrats on this committee have stated they have seen no evidence thus far after six months of our investigation in 10 months or 11 months of an FBI investigation of any such collusion.
I just suggest what do we think happened at the Mayflower. Mr. sessions are you familiar with what spies called trade-craft a little bit that involves things like covert communications and dead drops and brush passes right that is part of it do you like spy fiction...
Have you ever in any of these fantastical situations heard of a plot line was so ridiculous that a sitting United States Senator and an ambassador of a foreign government colluded an open setting with hundreds of other people to pull off the greatest caper in the history of etiquette?"
Sessions responded, "Thank you for saying that Senator Cotton. It's just like through the looking-glass. I mean what is this I explained how in good faith I said, 'I had not met with Russians' because they were suggesting I as a surrogate had been meeting continuously with Russians. I said I didn't meet with them and now the next thing you know I'm accused of some reception plotting some sort of influence campaign for the American election. It's just beyond my capability to understand and I really appreciate Mr. chairman the opportunity at least to be able to say publicly I didn't participate in that and know nothing about it."

I kind of agree with you. He let that dope Sen Warner trap him about if he thinks Mueller is capable as a special prosecutor and of course Sessions agreed, even knowing (or at least I’d hope he’d be aware) that Mueller is good time buddies with Comey the Leaker. Warner even went so far as to make Sessions promise or make him go on record he or Trump would not fire Mueller. I would have wanted him to tell him off and say how do you like those apples you puke.
I’d love to hear a Republican Senator say “All this stuff is a little too difficult for an old country boy to imagine, much less take part in. I mean, why, we’re not the party that gives debate questions to one candidate in advance and nobody even files any charges. They have lower-level assistants murdered in cold blood and refuse to call for a full investigation of that. Our party just doesn’t do that sort of crazy stuff. We’re simpler folk. We’re not the type that would try behind-the-scenes cloak-and-dagger stuff with a bunch of Russians. That’s for the movies.”
EVERY GOP Senator needs to follow Senator Cotton’s cue.
Mock the hoax of these political witch hunt proceedings.
End them immediately.
Eric Holder would've never allowed himself to be questioned in the first place. He wore his contempt of Congress charge as a badge of honor.
Love that Sessions. Good choice President Trump.
Sessions doesn't have the mettle. He's too timid and meek. We need guys like Holder, guys who aren't afraid to tell Congress to go f*** themselves.
Sessions is a DOPE who made one of the BIGGEST BLUNDERS in American HISTORY when he recused himself.
I have no idea what Trump was smoking when he picked this fossil, damn right HOLDER would NEVER have recused himself and NEVER allowed a Special Counsel to be appointed.
He told the GOP to piss off, they held him in contempt and he LAUGHED at them.
SESSIONS NEEDS TO GO.
Soon.
And then Obama, citing executive privilege, declined to have Holder prosecuted. "Um, ok." replied the spineless GOP.
Ever the Southern Gentleman, Sessions was clearly the big man in the room.
You got the sense that Sessions could tear Warner's arguments apart and make Warner look like a fool if he wanted to. But that's not his style.
But I did notice Lady Justice step down from her bronze pedestal and stood behind Sessions with pride. And with a steely resolve on her face, she said to the fake-patriot Warner:
Detested kite, thou liest!
My train are men of choice and rarest parts
That all particulars of duty know
And in the most exact regard support
The worships of their name.
