Not that I have heard yet but I have been meandering in and out of the room and may have missed it. Would be interested to hear that response though.

And now Durbin hitting him on immigration...and he is standing by opposition to DACA. He says it should handed back to his buddies 'in Congress', after repealing DACA.

It seems relevant that a prospective attorney general of the united states thinks that grabbing a woman's pussy without consent wouldn't qualify as sexual assault.

Well, okay, it would be nice if Congress actually did some immigration reform. But in the meantime...?

Interesting take on what happened in 1986:

Sessions is a dyed-in-the-wool lying, bigoted racist.

I believe he was saying "repeal, then replace (maybe sometime, if everyone can agree how to do it)".

Yes, I agree, that's why I want to hear his response.

And, Sessions has been associated with cases prosecuting KKK. He also pushed the death penalty and saw that it was carried out. He also helped campaign against George Wallace. I don't understand why they are doing this.
