I bet: among the calls for Sessions' resignation, the loudest the WH hears [View all]

[wiggs]

will be the calls not from the dems, the GOP, the FBI, or the NY Times...it will be from Russia.

Russia and the WH will want to stop deepening suspicions and calls for investigations into ALL the various oligarch connections, money trails, dead journalists, money laundering into NY/Trump Tower, banks that hold Russian assets, etc. They will demand that the WH staunch the bleeding...the WH will try to make this about dishonesty (again!) and not the underlying Russia problem, so Sessions will go. The WH may even make a deal with House and Senate leaders, offering Sessions as a trade for only limited Russia investigations.

To Russia, a LOT more is on the line than who occupies the AG office or even who is in the WH.
