In reply to the discussion: GOPer: Info On Sessions-Russia Contact 'Should Never' Have Become Public [View all]jetcat

It wasn't "classified" when Sessions was questioned about it during his public confirmation hearing. And Sessions neither objected to the questions about his Russian contacts as inquiring into classified territory, nor floated as an excuse for his answer that he had to keep those contacts secret because they were (or are) classified.
Trump tossed around the "leaks of classified information" bullshit as well. How about some Republican step up and tell us exactly what classification this information falls into? The "hurts Trump" classification? The "damn I thought they'd never find out" classification?

OP
But Benghazi was fair game to publicly make political hay over a non-scandal!

Of course it "should never have become public", you can't get away with treason when that happens.

This has nothing to do with leaking classified information. This has to do with lying
