Watch: Sessions Tells Senators He ‘Did Not Have Communications With the Russians' During Campaign

Attorney General Jeff Sessions met with the Russian ambassador to the U.S. before the presidential election last year. The new revelation Wednesday raised questions about whether he misled senators who inquired about the Trump campaign’s ties to Russia. Back in January, in response to a question from Sen. Al Franken during his confirmation hearing, Sessions said he “did not have communications with the Russians” during the campaign. As attorney general, Sessions overseas the FBI, which is investigating alleged connections between Russia and President Trump’s campaign.
