Jeff Sessions on Tuesday said there was “not enough basis” to appoint a special counsel to investigate Hillary Clinton, a day after reports surfaced that the attorney general had authorized senior prosecutors at the Department of Justice to evaluate an inquiry into the Clinton Foundation.
Chuck Grassley: "You intend to recuse yourself from both the Clinton email investigation and any matters involving the Clinton Foundation, if there are any?"
Jeff Sessions: "Yes." Confirmation Hearings, Jan. 10, 2017
So the main takeaway from #SessionsHearing is that our top cop isn't a serial perjurer, he just has a memory like the guy in "Memento." - John Fugelsang
