King: So what happens if Congress comes to an impasse, and POTUS decides he wants to extend DACA, what would your position be?
Sessions: That's a hypothetical, but I think Congress needs to act and to pass a law

Well, I've seen it all. Sessions just proved himself less racist than Steve King by stating that there are instances in which it is appropriate and necessary to grant amnesty.

Ms. Jackson Lee: Do you believe the women who are accusing Judge Moore?
Sessions: I have no reason not to
JL: Will the DOJ conduct appropriate investigations into Judge Moore's conduct?
S: Since that was my old Senate seat, I shouldn't be involved in anything having to do with that seat.
Sessions proceeds to talk over her.
JL: Let's talk about George. In addition to his comments in the March 12 meeting, he had a series of other meetings with surrogates for Putin. You also had Stephen Miller at that meeting. You refused at past senate hearings to answer questions about communications with the Russians. Bearing in mind what is now in the public record, would you like to admit, under oath, that you did not tell the truth or you misrepresented it, or do you want to correct your testimony right now?
S: um, what?
Ms. Jackson Lee clarifies her question and Sessions still won't answer. Now Goodlatte is scolding her.
Sessions says he stands by his testimony before SSCI.
"I would have been pleased to discuss it if I had recalled it."

Ms. Jackson Lee: Mandatory minimums and overincarceration have been a huge part of our law, and you want to return to a failed nixon-era policy of "law and order," Are you in any way interested in progressive criminal justice reform, e.g. rehabilitation of offenders.
Sessions: Yes

Rep Issa showed up and is talking about Sober Living Homes. Admittedly, I'm not well versed on this issue so I'm not really sure where this line of questioning is going. I'm assuming there are tax benefits for purchasing and establishing a Sober Living Home, but they are essentially just serving as boarding houses bc there are very few requirements placed on these homes to actually do anything to keep people sober

Cohen: Sir, you and I are both from the South. We have a more solemn responsibility than anyone else in the country to ensure that African Americans have free and fair voting access after the horrific mistreatment they withstood for hundreds of years.

Cohen: Do you agree that heroin is more dangerous than marijuana?
Sessions: Yes
Cohen: States that have medical marijuana have significantly less opioid abuse, and see lowered rates in violent crime. Will you please look at that evidence and let it inform your approach to marijuana?
Sessions: Uh, sure, but I think it's BS

Jim Jordan is trying to spin James Comey informing Trump of the Steele Dossier as a courtesy as proof that the FBI paid for the Steele Dossier. He's an idiot.

Hank Johnson is asking about the TWC/AT&T merger.
Sessions denies that the DOJ told TWC to drop Turner Broadcasting as a condition of the merger.
