Sessions says he was told he didn't need to list official meetings he had with foreign ambassadors per his role as a US Senator. I don't know if that is accurate or not, but this is his defense.

Meanwhile I got hassled because I had daily contact with a Mexican National... Who sat next to me at work. The forms I've filled out say any contact, there is no grey area.

Remember when the left was *against* McCarthyism? LOL, good times :)

Yes those "lefties" joined the GOP in 1960s with the Southern Strategy targeting their hatred of blacks, In essence, the GOP and Democrats traded bases. So these days it's the GOP that are white nationalists and the Democrats who are more globalist. The GOP embraces Russia now because that region is becoming the epicenter of white nationalism. It's like a racist mecca for whites now.

Please. The reason that big money Repubs embrace the Russian oligarchy is because they've become an epicenter of tax dodging & money laundering.

They like their style, too, just as much as they like the Saudi's style. No protesters in Riyadh & none in Moscow, for that matter. No problems with the free press intruding into their business practices, either. The plutocracy is multinational, beholden to no govt. They own the govt in Russia & they'd like to do the same everywhere.
