Priceless

Sessions lied under oath, but Republicans parse it, well, he was in a different role as a senator on the Armed Services Committee.  This is no excuse. The most generous spin would be to say, he could have answered honestly and iven n explanation, for example, the Senate Committee was considering this or that in Russian relations, etc.  But other committee members say they have not spoken to Russian ambssadors. Perhaps his fellow committee members could not support that story.  Or, he just chose to not get into the issue and thought he could get away with it.
Whatever.  He lied under oath.  Bill Clinton was impeached for a lie that had nothing to do with his job performance, let alone international relations with our country's major adversary.
An interesting side note that I am hearing.  The Obama Administration knew that there was a lot of stuff going on but they felt that they were in a no win position.  They could not appear to take sides in the election and they thought they could address the issue when Hillary Clinton was President.  After Trump won, members of the Obama Administration made every effort to preserve evidence.
We will learn more as the layers peel away. 
The serious issue is just how closely attached is the Trump administration to Russia.  Trump's tax returns must be made public.  How were his debts paid off?  It is beyond the election hacking, as bad as that was.  It is about our current relations with this adversarial country.
Trump has lied about issues large and small.  His pro-Russian sttements are legend.  Hard evidence must be presented to refute that this administration does not have affiliation to Russia.
