White House press secretary Sean Spicer on Monday declined to say whether he thinks Attorney General Jeff Sessions should invoke executive privilege during his scheduled testimony before the Senate Intelligence Committee on Tuesday.
“When Jeff Sessions testifies tomorrow, do you believe that he should invoke executive privilege on conversations between himself and the President as it relates to Jim Comey?” Fox Business News reporter Blake Burman asked Spicer at his daily briefing, referring to the fired director of the FBI.
“I think it depends on the scope of the questions,” Spicer replied. “To get into a hypothetical at this point would be premature.”
The Senate Intelligence Committee on Monday announced that Sessions will give public testimony and is scheduled to appear in open session Tuesday at 2:30 p.m. ET.
Wait, so besides diplomats, he also met with Putin?
Dummy, your loudmouth boss waived it when he blabbered about it on social media and to hapless Lester Holt. There is no executive privilege to invoke.
Premature invocation not happening with Sessions.
Can’t wait to watch our Keebler General refuse to answer any questions while sprinkling more white sugar on his 50-years-past-expiration cookies.
That settles it, not only will he have Trump claim executive privilege, he’ll have a go at attorney-client privilege, take the fifth, and invoke a Masonic secrecy ritual, all with his fingers crossed behind his back after swallowing a quart of Acme “Anti Nose-Grow”.
