Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., blasted Attorney General Jeff Sessions for not previously acknowledging his contacts with the Russian ambassador and said that it is “clear beyond a shadow of doubt” that Sessions cannot “possibly” lead an investigation into Russian interference in our election.

“With these revelations, it would be of Alice and Wonderland quality, if this administration were to sanction him to investigate himself,” Schumer told reporters Thursday morning. “A recusal should have been given, but this goes beyond that.”
