Report: Sessions Is Key Witness in Mueller Inquiry into Trump Obstruction

Attorney General Jeff Sessions is reportedly a key witness in Robert Mueller’s inquiry into whether President Donald J. Trump obstructed the Russia investigation.

During a March 2017 meeting at Mar-a-Lago, President Trump asked Sessions to unrecuse himself from the collusion probe — a request the Attorney General declined.

“The confrontation, which has not been previously reported, is being investigated by the special counsel, Robert S. Mueller III, as are the president’s public and private attacks on Mr. Sessions and efforts to get him to resign. Mr. Trump dwelled on the recusal for months, according to confidants and current and former administration officials who described his behavior toward the attorney general,” reports the New York Times.

Special counsel lawyers have grilled White House aides about the President’s relationship with Sessions in an effort to learn whether the Attorney General acted in any way to influence the investigation. Eight questions that the special counsel would like President Trump to answer focus on his relationship with Sessions.

Pardon me, but doesn't the President have the right to have an Attorney General who isn't actively trying to have him impeached? Obama's first AG is in contempt of Congress and actively undermining the current POTUS and his second AG is hiding somewhere on a plane with Bubba Clinton. SHEEEEEEEEEEESH.

I thought President Trump was NOT being investigated and was never a target. Democrats want both ways in everything I can't believe I was a democrat.
