Attorney General Sessions Slated to Testify to Senate Intel Committee Today
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Attorney General Jeff Sessions is slated to testify today before the
Senate Intelligence Committee, where he's expected to face questioning
about his role in the firing of former FBI Director James Comey, as well
as about Sessions's multiple meetings with Russian officials while he
was serving as a member of Trump's campaign. Sessions has acknowledged
meeting with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak twice last year. There
are also unsubstantiated rumors based on U.S. intelligence reports that
Sessions may have also met with the Russian ambassador in April at the
Mayflower Hotel in Washington, D.C., during a Trump campaign event.
