several times, he feels genuinely he's under attack being accused of things he didn't do and wants to get his side of the story out. the fact he does so in an often clumsy way, sometimes adds confusion, but here are the facts. his trip to moscow in july was well reported at the time. it wasn't a secret. everybody knew about it. it was on cnn all the time. the fact that he met with russian deputy prime minister while he was in moscow i reported. he confirmed that 13 months ago, so that was not a secret. why jeff sessions doesn't seem to remember any of this is weird and unexplainable. he could be forgettable or deceiving, i really don't know, but what we're seeing here is these investigations get to all of these things that happened last year. they are rehashing a lot of things we knew from last year and presenting them as new information, so that's just a caution for everybody who's writing and thinking and talking about this. there's a lot of smoke, there's not a lot of fire.
