Attorney General Jeff Sessions is set to testify in front of the Senate Intelligence Committee on Tuesday to respond to accusations leveled at him by former FBI Director James Comey – though it is not clear whether or not it will be a public or a private testimony. Sessions had previously agreed to testify Tuesday on the Justice Department’s budget, however after Comey hinted last week that the Attorney General had more contact with Russia than previously disclosed, Tuesday’s testimony will take a different direction, while Sessions will send assistant AG Rod Rosenstein to testify on the budget.
In a letter Saturday, Sessions stated that it was important to address what Comey had said to the panel:
“In light of reports regarding Mr. Comey’s recent testimony before the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence, it is important that I have an opportunity to address these matters in the appropriate forum. The Senate Intelligence Committee is the most appropriate forum for such matters, as it has been conducting an investigation and has access to relevant, classified information.
Therefore, I am pleased to accept the invitation to appear before members of that committee on June 13th.”

Since Comey allegedly perjured himself on the stand last week, the entire Trump legal apparatus has undoubtedly been hard at work planning their next moves. It goes without saying that Jeff Sessions’ decision to drop by on Tuesday is at minimum designed to respond to Comey’s implications – and may include more; up to and including MOAB’s dropped on Comey and the entire Russia investigation. Ready the popcorn…

Does’t matter. The deep state is not letting go of this “Russia whatever” bullshit. Commie is compromised. Sessions will not go down. All this is distraction,
You, Fly and readers here need to watch CNN. I learned this morning that Comey is an honest man and a public servant of the very highest integrity …and that his testimony should lead to impeachment on obstruction charges.
Bring it. “Senate Intelligence Committee” is a fucking oxymoron. The Swamp is red pilling the masses. Please continue.
