Showing Original Post only (View all)Thank you, Senator Franken [View all]
Had you not so skillfully boxed in Jeff Sessions with his own lies, he would not have had to recuse himself from the Russia investigation. And we all know that, unlike Comey, Sessions would have quashed the investigation immediately upon Trump's request and he surely would never have approved the counter-intelligence investigation into his boss.
So, thank you, Senator Franken. We owe you a great debt. And you deserved far better than you received from us. I sincerely hope - and expect - that history will be much kinder to you than we have been.
