    I can see him like the other times, sitting there with a silly grin just making the Mueller look like a total moron ;) Sessions is sharp, if they had anything they wouldn't be question him, they'd be charging him, along with another :) Mueller and his leftist group is just doing thier pathetic best to roll this poop show as close to midterm as they can, but in the process they will come up a day late and a dollar short and only serve to bore the voters and proving themselves to be moron!

    I wonder if Mueller has looked into Martha Stewart's Russian connections.

    Perhaps you should review the process of a professional criminal investigation. Generally interview/interrogations take place before charges are laid.

    AS for sessions making mueller look like a fool, I guess you didn't catch his televised confession that he has the memory of a alzheimer's patient. Sessions might be cagey - hell hes a politician - its a given, but that don't make him smarter or tougher than mueller.

    The world knows how smart and tough Meuller is. His record speaks for itself.
    Sessions? not so much.

    I can guarantee his "recollection" was vastly improved in his interview with the special counsel.

    Like I said, if they had something they would be charging and not conducting another round of questioning :) As for Mueller being smart, well he is only as smart as the smarter guy he questions, you should be fairly familiar with that :)

    Cool, a license to lie! How comforting.

    Lying to the DOJ on substantive matters is a crime, it doesn't require being under oath. Sessions is the Department of Justice.

    Sessions, as Attorney General, can ask anyone probative questions at any time and answers intended to obfuscate or obstruct could be considered crimes. This applies to Mueller.

    As to "Prosecutors can lie to suspects", no they cannot and remain in compliance with ABA Model Rules of Professional Conduct. I'd encourage you to look for an "investigatory exception" to ethical rules.

    It was the first time mueller questioned him.

    But conflating testimony in congressional committees with a criminal investigation interview is about all ya got.

    ONce again you expose lack of basic knowledge.

    You think a professional criminal investigator just sits there having a conversation?

    Or have they carefully selected their approach from a wide variety of them at their disposal, then selected the various tools required to implement that approach and collect all relevant evidence to date and then have all kinds of other basic tools to drill down or expose contradictions? Sessions is no doubt well aware of the pitfalls of criminal investigation interviews. Its just that he doesn't have much maneuvering room short of the truth. He can be COMPELLED to answer or plead the fifth. Imagine the impact of a transcript that shows him pleading the fifth over and over again.

    Rock meet hard place.

    Well I dunno, this is your opinion piece! Do me a favor and when you get something more than "Or Have They" get back with me, all I can offer is "What I Know" and only what has already transpired! But it was nice to see you're still working that crystal Ball theory generator, whatever helps you sleep at night I say ;)

    You don't seem to know much of what has already transpired, so I'll take that under advisement.

    Though the NSA has just admitted they destroyed volumes of FISA records they were under court order to preserve. The records covered Bush era surveillance conducted by Muellers FBI. I'm sure that's a coincidence. Like the FBI texts that weren't preserved despite orders from the OIG.

    The "back story" is that the data would have included FBI director Muellers FISA surveillance records related to Uranium 1. Intercepted calls of the Russian racketeers, and their US recruits as well.
    http://thehill.com/policy/national-...-acted-as-russian-spy-moved-closer-to-hillary
    Mikerlin was the only 1 of 12 Russian spies charged for the Russian bribery, extortion, and money laundering. Mueller simply allowed 11 to return to Russia. Mueller imposed a gag order on his own FBI undercover informant, preventing the informant from alerting congress before the sale was approved.
