4. Here's my response to the article which I posted to his FB page

Great read but I have concern with this assessment of Jeff Sessions confirmation testimony which was under oath:

"The false statements of Attorney General Jeff Sessions during his confirmation hearing that he had had no contact with the Russian ambassador to the United States, Sergey Kislyak, was a bumbling omission. But it came from an Alabama senator already assumed to be bumbling by everyone in Washington—except President Trump. In any case, it was in no way illegal, and touched the president in no direct fashion."

Making false statements under oath is perjury and perjury is a crime. I would appreciate a clarification of how you came to the conclusion that such statements were not illegal.
