Democratic Congressman Mocks Jeff Sessions After AG Announces Attack on Sanctuary Cities

'Sessions Is an Illegitimate AG'

U.S. Congressman Ted Lieu took to Twitter Monday afternoon to remind Americans that Attorney General Jeff Sessions lied to his fellow Senators during his confirmation hearings. Earlier Monday Sessions delivered an unexpected announcement, telling reporters the Dept. of Justice will force cities and states to certify they are not sanctuaries for undocumented immigrants.

"Dear States," Rep. Lieu, a Democrat from California, said on Twitter. "I'm thinking that since it's OK for AG Sessions to lie under oath to Congress, then it's OK for you to lie to him on your forms," he tweeted.

In January Attorney General Sessions' apparent lie to the Senate Judiciary Committee came under intense scrutiny. Sessions had claimed he was unaware of anyone from the Trump campaign having met with Russian officials. As America later learned, just a few weeks ago, Sessions himself had at least two meetings with the Russian Ambassador to the U.S.

At least 65 lawmakers demanded action, including many calling for Sessions to resign. Others called for him to recuse himself from any investigations into the Trump campaign, which he did......................................................









And a few of the many replies:

@tedlieu Sessions perjured himself, Trump is under FBI investigation and has a 36% approval. Why should we take them seriously?
