Jeff Sessions actually said...

"I have decided to recuse myself from any existing or future investigations of any matters related in any way to the campaigns for President of the United States."

"Let me be clear, I never had meetings with Russian operatives or Russian intermediaries about the Trump campaign."

"I believe those recommendations are right and just. Therefore, I have recused myself in the matters that deal with the Trump campaign."

"Donald Trump is speaking for the American people against a corrupt international Washingtonian establishment."
