Expect to see Dems confuse plans for meetings that never took place with actual "collusion."

 Fact:  Sessions testified that he knew nothing about any collusion with the Russians.  That is because "collusion" involves actual meetings with,  planning with,  arrangements to interfere  . . . .  with Russian help, in this case.  THAT is collusion.  Before reading the following,  know this:  Papdopoulos never met with the Russians on behalf of the campaign, as a spokesman for the campaign.  He never went to Russia.  All of his schemes and plans were rejected by the campaign.  This article is so much trash,  because it conflates non-action with premeditation and partnership  ~  editor.

The following is as scurrilous a bit of propaganda as anything put into print to this point in time. 

Is Very, Very Bad News for Attorney General Jeff Sessions

The biggest news of Mueller Monday — the rollout of a money-laundering indictment against Donald Trump’s former campaign adviser, Paul Manafort and campaign aide Rick Gates, and the unsealing of a false-statements plea deal by another campaign volunteer, George Papadopoulos — may involve someone not named explicitly in either indictment: Attorney General Jeff Sessions.

That’s because Sessions has repeatedly testified to the Senate that he knows nothing about any collusion with the Russians. (Though in his most recent appearance, he categorized that narrowly by saying he did not “conspire with Russia or an agent of the Russian government to influence the outcome of the 2016 presidential election.”)

But the Papadopoulos plea shows that Sessions — then acting as Trump’s top foreign policy adviser — was in a March 31, 2016, meeting with Trump, at which Papadopoulos explained “he had connections that could help arrange a meeting between then-candidate Trump and President Putin.” It also shows that Papadopoulos kept a number of campaign officials in the loop on his efforts to set up a meeting between Trump and Putin, though they secretly determined that the meeting “should be someone low level in the campaign so as not to send any signal,” itself a sign the campaign was trying to hide its efforts to make nice with the Russians.
