Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn., said tonight on CNN that he believed Jeff Sessions committed perjury when the attorney general didn’t disclose his meetings with the Russian ambassador during his Senate confirmation hearings.
‘It’s hard to come to any other conclusion that he just perjured himself,’ Franken told CNN’s Jake Tapper Tuesday afternoon.
After it came out that Sessions had met twice with Russian Amb. Sergey Kislyak over the course of the presidential campaign, the attorney general amended his remarks to the Senate Judiciary Committee yesterday saying he ‘did not mention communications he had with the Russian ambassador over the years because the question did not ask about them.’
