It’s and old lie, and almost certainly not provable, but he has now taken an oath and stood behind that ridiculous story about how in March, when it was perfectly convenient for Trump, he suddenly decided Comey had to go for being mean to Hillary in October, after praising it in November. And now that he has absolutely proven he has some dirt on his hands, by lying under oath, they have to wonder how much there is.

Everyone saw Session lie under oath months ago during his confirmation hearing.

In the wake of the Scalise shooting, Not-Hillary wants Americans to work toward the common good.

Pity that he’s incapable of leading by example.

No, it’s the damn liberals, with their anti-Trump hate-mongering, spurred on by the fake news media.

I wondering how many people they have assigned to tackle Trump to stop him from tweeting anything that looks like a call for gun control.
