 WASHINGTON â Attorney General Jeff Sessions  could not have been more definitive when  he  told a Senate panel last month that  he  had no knowledge of Trump campaign contacts with Russia.
âI did not  and Iâm not aware of anyone else that did â  Sessions  told the Senate Judiciary Committee. âI donât believe that happened.â
Democrats and Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee are preparing a strong challenge to  Sessions â assertions at a hearing Tuesday  based largely on the guilty plea of George Papadopoulos  who served as a foreign policy adviser to the Trump campaign and admitted to the FBI  he  attended a national security meeting in March 2016 with then-candidate Donald Trump  Sessions and other advisers.
"Itâs time for Jeff Sessions to name a Special Counsel and get answers for the American people " the two congressmen wrote. "If not  he should step down."
In addition to the Russia investigation  Rep. Trey Gowdy  R-S.C.  said  Sessions  should expect "spirited questioning" on recent spikes in violent crime  firearms policy in the wake of two mass shootings  immigration enforcement and the Justice Department's recent move to support harsher sentencing policy.
But  Sessions  likely will be hard-pressed to move beyond the cloud of the Russia investigation and his association with it.
Sharman said the recent Papadopoulos and Page disclosures make Sessions at least a "witness" in the Mueller inquiry as it churns on. ( Sessions  told the Senate committee last month that the special counsel had not yet sought to interview him.)
And Trump has taken no pleasure in  Sessions  or the Justice Department. Earlier this month  the president said he was "disappointed" in the department for not pursuing Clinton and Democrats further.
