What would Mueller have asked Sessions??

Is it true that Sessions could not claim "executive privilege" as he did in his Senate hearings?

Mueller must have gotten a lot of information from Beauregard Sessions, would be my bet?

Shit is getting real...and real close to the Oval Office.

Yes, what questions did he put to Sessions?
What is the next step, what is the game plan with Sessions?

Lying on disclosure forms, lying to Senate.

I wonder if any state crimes hang over him.

Can Mueller turn him? Shit is getting very close to the fan.

Perhaps you grew up directly under high tension power lines?

Those are the only two questions that I can think of right now.

"On February 21, 1975, Mitchell, who was represented by the criminal defense attorney William G. Hundley, was found guilty of conspiracy, obstruction of justice, and perjury and sentenced to two and a half to eight years in prison for his role in the Watergate break-in and cover-up, which he dubbed the "White House ..."

He’s both a witness to Trump’s action and a participant.

Two people close to the WH told me this AM Trump was “absolutely fuming” because Sessions didn’t report back in detail on how his interview went with Mueller’s team. Apparently Trump was “begging” Sessions to tell him what questions were asked & Sessions wouldn’t tell him much.

He used the term "begging" to know what Sessions said. trump likes to think people beg him for things all the time, so it's very satisfying to hear about trump begging.

I can't wait to hear the news that trump is "begging" Mueller for a way out...

If Sessions and Mueller just chatted for a couple of hours Twitler wouldn't believe it. He is paranoid and would assume Sessions flipped on him. Sessions being the self-serving, evil little elf he is, would do anything to save his sorry ass.
