There's so much smoke here that Cheech and Chong are hacking.

Great reporting, REAL NEWS media Washington Post and New York Times!

Even Putin is getting concerned over the incompetence of the Trump Clown Show.

Recuse? Resignation? Screw that:
indict, prosecute and imprison this criminal so-called AG in one of his loathsome private prisons.

I think the bigger problem is that
Republicans have been lying so much, they have forgotten the difference between the truth and a lie. This is clearly perjury.

Rather curious timing on Sessions part. Up until the news broke yesterday that he had told little white lies to the judiciary committee concerning his contacts with Russians,
Sessions was adamant he would not recuse himself from the investigation of Trump being a traitor, but now that Sessions has been exposed he puts on this honorable persona, stating of course he is recusing himself. Despicable, but par for the course for the GOP.
Now he has to resign.

"He was 100 percent straight with the [Judiciary] committee, and I think that people who are choosing to play partisan politics with this should be ashamed of themselves.”
Thank you for that Mr Spicer. I agree completely. Republicans should be ashamed of themselves for choosing party over country by shielding sessions and the administration from an independent review of Russian involvement in the election.

Well done WaPo! You guys are doing a bangup job keeping these guys feet to the fire...better than NYT and definitely blowing Breitbart out the water.
Next move, get this guy to resign by revealing what was discussed. Better still that Jeff and Donald discussed the meetings.

Sessions will still face jeopardy from a possible perjury charge, that's not all folks, just wait, Trump's new Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross is a money launderer for Russian oligarchs, this whole administration is a collection of crooks, extremists, incompetents and traitors.

Sessions had all the time in the world to correct his statements in the hearings. He could have sent a letter to the CHairman stating he had a meeting with the Russian Ambassador and what they discussed. HE DID NOT DO THIS. Why? Only does this become an issue when Sessions is FOUND out.
Recuse is not enough Sessions needs to be removed because he thinks he is above the law.
5:02 PM EST
Still all fake news?
5:02 PM EST
Now that Sessions has recused himself from the investigation, they should offer him immunity from the felony perjury charges to compel his testimony on all details of Trump's involvement with the Russians.
5:02 PM EST
"Attorney General Jeff Sessions will recuse himself from any probe related to 2016 presidential campaign"
Well good; that solves one problem.
However, there is still the issue that Jeff Sessions lied under oath to his fellow senators in his confirmation hearing. That is grounds for his resignation, impeachment and / or prosecution for lying under oath. And senators and representatives, this can not be swept under the rug. It is out here; he did it; you must take action.

Mighty White of Sessions to recuse himself from investigations of crimes he and his boss, Trump, committed to win the election.
#Impeach
