REPORT: Obama Administration Set Up Meeting Between Jeff Sessions And Russian Ambassador



Posted Friday, March 3rd 2017 @ 12pm by Hannity.com Staff

Democrats continue to attack Attorney General Jeff Sessions for a pair of meetings he had with the Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak in 2016 while he was a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee and an occasional surrogate for the Trump campaign. However, a new report from Fox News is throwing cold water on the idea that the meetings were part of some nefarious plot between the Trump campaign and Russia.

Over at FoxNews.com, Hans Von Spakovsky reports that least one of the meetings was actually arranged, in part, by the Obama administration.

The first [meeting] came at a conference on “Global Partners in Diplomacy,” where Sessions was the keynote speaker. Sponsored by the U.S. State Department, The Heritage Foundation, and several other organizations, it was held in Cleveland during the Republican National Convention.

The conference was an educational program for ambassadors invited by the Obama State Department to observe the convention. The Obama State Department handled all of the coordination with ambassadors and their staff, of which there were about 100 at the conference.

Apparently, after Sessions finished speaking, a small group of ambassadors—including the Russian ambassador—approached the senator as he left the stage and thanked him for his remarks. That’s the first “meeting.” And it’s hardly an occasion—much less a venue—in when a conspiracy to “interfere” with the November election could be hatched. (emphasis added)

So was the Obama administration in on the Russian conspiracy?

As we reported on Thursday, it's neither improper or unusual for Senators to meet with foreign envoys.

PRICELESS!!! WAY TO GO HANNITY!!!

Thank you Newmexican. I missed that Hannity Show, dammit!!

Oh this is going to get really good. People are already saying, Republican people, our kind of people, are saying oh yeah, they're going to investigate all the way back to when the US Government interfered in the Russian elections of 1996. Lets see, who was President then, OH MY GOD, it was none other than BILL CLINTON!!!

The poor Dems have met their match here. There's a sting in play and they're marching right into the web and the trap.
