Al Franken: Jeff Sessions Committed Perjury [VIDEO]

The Washington Examiner reports:



Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn., suspects Attorney General Jeff Sessions may have lied about his communications with Russian officials under oath when testifying during the Senate confirmation process.

“I think that he did not answer truthfully under oath,” Franken said during an interview on MSNBC on Friday night.

He was responding to the question of whether Sessions is fit to run the Justice Department after the latest allegations that there may be a third undisclosed meeting last year between Sessions, then a senator, and Russian ambassador to the United States Sergei Kislyak.

Former FBI Director Comey reportedly told senators about that meeting Thursday during the closed-session of his testimony to the Senate Intelligence Committee.
