House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) renewed her call on Friday for Attorney General Jeff Sessions to step down from the Justice Department amid reports that he may have held a third undisclosed meeting with Russia's ambassador.

"When you talk about all of these things, just remember there's something strange that isn't connecting," Pelosi said on MSNBC's "Morning Joe."

"Now I can't...confirm or deny the issue of the third meeting. But I did say on March 2 that he should resign," she continued. "Sessions should resign as attorney general."

Pelosi's comments followed former FBI Director James Comey's testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee on Thursday, in which he said that the FBI was confident that Sessions would recuse himself from the Justice Department's probe into Russian election meddling before he had done so.

1. Or forcefully removed

Perjured himself. That's a crime. Prosecute him. It's pretty straightforward.

2. These liars don't have enough credibility to flip them

Pelosi, as usual, is correct, resignation from public outcry over corruption might
be the only way to get him out short of impeachment which has political hurdles

Ryan would circle the wagons if Sessions were indicted

3. Traitor tot.

4. And, he should be prosecuted, convicted, and do time in jail.

Using his own sentencing mantra, maximum time.

11. If only he were ...

... smokin' a little weed instead of just committing treason and selling out his countrymen for a little power, money and a copy of the Russian hookers pee tape. (sigh).

5. So nothing anyone can do about this??

Besides talking that is. We all know what he's done and yet he's still there. Nothing happening with the Alabama bar complaints filed against him either......

I know the reps are in control. But nothing?

8. Rachel commented on this last night

that the Sessions issue was something new, and a complete surprise. Man, I would have loved to be a fly on the wall in the closed session! Comey hinted at this and other things he couldn't discuss in open session.

9. Oh HELL Yes!
