Rep. Jeffries: ‘It’s Clear’ Sessions ‘Has Been Less than Truthful’ About Contacts with Russia

‘So it was a classic case, over and over and over again of selective amnesia when convenient’

RUSH EXCERPT:
JEFFRIES: "It absolutely does not. I pointed out in the first part of any questioning of Jeff Sessions that he, himself, made the point in October of 2016 that when Hillary Clinton said I don’t remember over 35 times, that if that was intentional, that itself could constitute the crime of perjury. Now it turns out that Jeff Sessions earlier this year testified before the Senate intelligence committee, said I don’t recall approximately 30 times, same thing before the Senate Judiciary Committee today, repeatedly said I don’t recall at least 25 times. So it was a classic case over and over and over again of selective amnesia when convenient. It’s clear, Chris, that he has been less than truthful on multiple occasions when testifying before Congress about contacts between himself, the Trump campaign and Russia. And that’s a serious thing."
