When embarrassment-to-the-country Jeff Sessions isn’t perjuring himself in front of the United States Senate, he’s just a liar. When he’s not lying, he’s sitting around waiting for more bombshell news to drop about how much of a bullshit artist he is.
The Trump administration says Attorney General Jeff Sessions was acting as a then-U.S. senator when he talked to Russia’s ambassador at an event during last year’s Republican National Convention in Cleveland, but Mr. Sessions paid for convention travel expenses out of his own political funds and he spoke about Donald Trump’s campaign at the event, according to a person at the event and campaign-finance records.
Oh Jefferson. Anything else you want to “remember” to tell us?
Campaign Action
The Journal said Sessions’ campaign account made two payments of $1,395 to the Sheraton Cleveland Airport on July 16, two days.
None of the payments reimbursing Sessions appear in Trump's 2016 presidential campaign account. ABC News also confirmed the spending ahead of the meeting, news of which put Sessions on the hot seat this week, with top congressional Democrats calling for his resignation.
