On the same note, White House staff have been told to preserve any Russia related materials - http://www.cbc.ca/news/world/electio...iles-1.4005906

If the Sessions thing is true, he committed perjury in his confirmation hearing since he said he had no contact with Russian officials.

So what should be the consequences for Sessions? He obviously lied. I'm no expert on perjury or how these things work.

I agree he should resign. But is there anything beyond that? Not expecting any hard time in jail or anything, but was wondering if there was more than just having to step down.

I read on twitter that this Russian ambassador is a spy recruiter. That all sounds very romantic and brow raising but well have to wait and see more details.

He'll probably recuse himself now, I don't think he'll resign.

I watched Idiocracy again the other day. Pretty scary how the current administration isn't that far off from President Camacho and his cabinet.

That could be, but I'm not sure an AG in charge of presiding over justice who was caught lying under oath should be able to remain in that position.

Spicer's briefing obviously becomes must see TV tomorrow. Assuming he allows anyone other than FOX, OANN and Breitbart into the briefing room.

Saw on twitter somewhere that there isn't a briefing tomorrow, but rather a gaggle. I think he might be travelling somewhere, Virginia maybe??

But with a recuse don't they appoint a special outside prosecutor? If he resigns maybe that's a bad strategy for the dems since Don gets to pick another and it can stall.
