Actually, I'm kinda surprised Manchin is asking about sanctions. That seems like he came in fixated on that and has totally dropped the executive privilege thing. (come on Kamala, handle it) e: interesting, he didn't ask "will you closed session", he asked "would a closed session change your answers"

The Attorney General sure forgets a lot about what executive privilege is or isn't.

This line of questioning by Manchin is actually really effective, he's made Sessions say "I don't recall" about five times in a row. It emphasizes how ridiculous that statement is

I posted this in the other thread, but here's an interesting tidbit I discovered: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alberto_Gonzales posted:His responses frustrated the Democrats on the committee, as well as several Republicans. One example of such frustration came in an exchange between Senator Jeff Sessions of Alabama and Gonzales regarding a November 2006 meeting. Sessions is one of the most conservative members of the Senate, and was one of the Bush Administration's staunchest allies. At the meeting, the attorney firings were purportedly discussed, but Gonzales did not remember such discussion. As reported by the Washington Post, the dialogue went as follows:

So Manchin got it on the record that Sessions is invoking executive privilege.
