Jeffrey Goldberg: Sessions’ ‘Purported Incuriosity’ on Russia Is Scandalous

‘This is the scandal’

EXCERPT:

GOLDBERG: "So this is the scandal, right? This might be the actual scandal. The incuriosity or the purported incuriosity of the attorney general of the United States. If I were the attorney general of the United States and somebody said, 'Oh, by the way, I think Russia is trying to steal our election,' I might say, 'Do I have any mechanisms within my vast Justice Department to look at this?' I would think that this would be probably item number one on my agenda, maybe number two after counter-terrorism. But this seems to be it. It’s not credible. Either it’s a sign of it’s not credible, or it’s cause for removal because it’s too important not to be curious about.”
