But the fact of their happening isn't. Still leaves the question of why Sessions and Trump consulted with one another after Sessions had recused himself from the Russian investigation.

"How many times did you meet with Russia's US spymaster Kislyak?"
"Are you aware of other members of the Trump campaign meeting with Russians?"
"Are you aware of Donald Trump meeting any Russians before inauguration?"
