Dear Leader Thump's Attorney-General Sessions' hold on his job is looking increasingly tenuous as evidence mounts that he may have lied during his confirmation hearings.
Sessions told Congress hearings that he had no contacts with Russian officials but it now turns out that he twice spoke with the Russian Ambassador. Today's Guardian reports:
"Donald Trump’s attorney general Jeff Sessions twice spoke with the Russian ambassador to the United States during the presidential campaign.
The Washington Post, citing justice department officials, first reported that Sessions met with Russian ambassador Sergey Kislyak once in September 2016, when US intelligence officials were investigating Russian interference in the presidential election, and once in the summer of that year.
It was communications with Kislyak that led to the firing of Trump’s first national security adviser, Michael Flynn, in February.
A spokeswoman for Sessions confirmed that the meetings took place, but provided a statement from the attorney general saying they were not related to the election campaign.
“I never met with any Russian officials to discuss issues of the campaign,” Sessions’ statement said. “I have no idea what this allegation is about. It is false.”
Sessions, a former senator from Alabama who was among Trump’s early and most vocal surrogates on the campaign trail, did not disclose the conversations when asked under oath during his Senate confirmation hearing in early 2017 about possible contacts between Trump’s campaign and Moscow.

Will Sessions be the latest Thump appointee to be forced to resign? How much more damage is the Russian connection going to cause Dear Leader Thump's White House? Is there a need for a special prosecutor to be appointed to get to the bottom of this contentious issue? Could it prove fatal to the Thump Presidency?

Attorney General Jeff Sessions met with the Russian ambassador to the U.S. before the presidential election last year, his spokeswoman confirmed, raising questions about whether he misled senators who inquired about the Trump campaign's ties to Moscow.

Sarah Isgur Flores told NBC News that Sessions did have a conversation with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak last year. The meeting was first reported by The Washington Post.

But she said "there was absolutely nothing misleading about his answer" because Sessions was asked during the hearing about "communications between Russia and the Trump campaign" and not about meetings he took as a member of the Armed Services Committee.

The whole administration is going to go down in flames.
Sooner or later, even BoscoX won't be able to deny it.

He'll still constantly change the topic, though.

"He will never be nominated"

I am seeing a pattern here
