White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer has come out swinging against anyone — including members of the Republican Party — who believes that Attorney General Jeff Sessions needs to recuse himself from investigations into the Trump campaign’s contacts with Russian officials.

In an excerpt released from a Fox News interview that will be aired in full on Friday, Spicer lashed out at people who are calling for Sessions to either resign or recuse himself.

“There’s nothing to recuse himself (from),” said Spicer. “He was 100% straight with the committee, and I think people who are choosing to play partisan politics with this should be ashamed of themselves.”

Sessions has come under fire for not disclosing at his Senate confirmation hearing that he twice met with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak over the course of the 2016 presidential campaign.

1. Ask not for whom the bells toll

it tolls for thee, traitor.

Here's another-ask not what your country can do for you. Ask what you can do for your country.

Here's another--the only way 3 people can keep a secret is if 2 of them are dead.

[Crowman2009]

2. Yeah whatever Sean Sphincter.

[lark]

3. Spicey is a moron, just like his boss and Sessions.

They are 3 of a kind and care nothing for following the law. It's perjury idiots!!

[Kablooie]

4. What the fuck!?

He lied under oath about contact with the very thing that he is supposed to be investigating.

The only reason they wouldn't want him to recuse himself at this point is that he is their primary protection from being removed from power and possibly sent to jail.

If they were innocent they would much rather he recuse himself than deal with the fallout from protecting him.
If they have nothing to worry about a special prosecutor wouldn't be a problem.

[ffr]

5. I believe Schumer wisely crafted a trap in his second bullet point this morning

when asking tRump to do what's right and if he doesn't for Ryan and McConnell to step up and do what is called for by law.

I think he's setting a trap to take them all down. The nice thing is, we're finding they're too stupid to figure it out. That or they believe that doubling down against our law enforcement agencies is something they can get away with.

[Sunlei]

6. That's what is expected because he speaks for trump.

[Tiggeroshii]

7. I say we get on with the impeachment proceedings and find out who actually needs to be ashamed

you smarmy, smelly, pot belly bully

(My insult to spicer, not the op)

[Liberalagogo]

8. Spicy Sphincter

just needs to STFU.

[KingCharlemagne]

10. What a pathetic tool - nt

[BumRushDaShow]

9. "Spicer has come out swinging"

[Bengus81]

11. Really?? Still DRUNK with power Sean?? Give it up bud..................nt

[lagomorph777]

12. First time I have ever agreed with Angry Spice.

Anybody not calling for Sessions to be fired should be ashamed.

[JudyM]

13. So it's looking like that includes Ryan.

[Ccarmona]

14. Just This Past Monday Spicey said

"I think Russia's involvement in campaign activity has been investigated up and down. The question becomes if there's nothing further to investigate, then what are you asking people to investigate."
He has less credibility than anyone, so why does he still have a job.

[roscoeroscoe]

15. Sorry, no

Nice try, but no. It doesn't matter how shouty you get, either. This is potentially a crime by the same standard Sessions called for during Whitewater. Karma train!

[TNLib]

16. Wow Trump and his staff are absolutely whacked out of their minds

I guess this is how they want to play it Bowling Green Massacre/ alternate facts Style

[joanbarnes]

17. Who's afraid of Spicy?

[Kensan]

18. Spicer is right...

They got the wrong "R" word. They should be asking for Sessions to resign!!

[Turbineguy]

19. Trump really found a gem

with this fuckin' hump Spicer.

[Grammy23]

20. The shame award goes to you, Spice-boy

for agreeing to be a part of this lying lying pack of thugs and thieves occupying this White House. Now you find yourself in the position of having to defend the guilty actions made by other fools on this ship....headed for a gigantic iceberg floating on the horizon. You all see it out there but just keep on saying it ain't so and the news people just need to shut up and sit down. You tried that strategy already to no avail so we will get to see you flounder around in righteous indignation until the evidence (iceberg) gouges a gigantic hole in the tRump tramp steamer. I have my binoculars in place and can't wait to see the tRump hulk taking on water, going down for the last time, straight to the bottom of the sea. Glug, glug, glug......

[Angry Dragon]

21. Did you mean Spice-girl??

[Angry Dragon]

22. Kick the whole lot of them out

[Dyedinthewoolliberal]

23. Partisan politics?

WTF?

[randome]

24. He's right. Sessions should be ashamed of himself.

Further illustration that we have 10-15 co-Presidents and no one is coordinating anything, everyone just goes off on their own.

[adigal]

25. And he now recused himself....these clowns are worse than the Three Stooges!!! nt

[LonePirate]

26. Spicy is sure earning quite the reputation for himself now that Sessions recused himself.

[Squinch]

27. If spicer was pushed onto the stage and told to take a hard line against this story,

it means the administration will ask for Sessions's resignation within 24 hours.

Because that's how they roll. They like to help Shouty Spice look like even more of an ass than he is already.

[gopiscrap]

28. Fuck you Spicer, guess what just happened?

[tanyev]

29. New SNL this week! I hope Melissa McCarthy is available.

[dalton99a]

30. Worthless moron.

[Aviation Pro]

31. Whoops....

...behind the curve a bit, Melissa, I mean Spicey, dang it, Sean.

[meadowlander]

32. Five minutes later... he recuses himself.

Next up:

Sean Spicer: "The president has complete confidence in Jeff Sessions and he does not need to resign."

Sessions resigns.

[lagomorph777]

42. Hey Angry Spice! Should Sessions be ashamed, now that he recused himself?

[Doreen]

33. That disgusting little fuck lies to.

His pupils move back and forth quickly when he is lying. If they catch and fire the ones who lie then he would get his to.

[joet67]

34. Well he just recused himself, so Spicer can go pound sand. nt

[Bozvotros]

35. And exactly what would you and your blowhard boss know about shame? nt

You

[KewlKat]

36. I asked for his resignation, so nothing to be ashamed of here!!!!

[Rex]

37. I never thought anyone could surpass Ari Fleischer in just overall shittyness as press sect.

[BigDemVoter]

38. I'm not!

[TomCADem]

39. I AM APOLOGIZING ON BEHALF OF YOU TO ME...

...WHICH I WILL NOT ACCEPT!

[Danascot]

40. Why do people who have no shame

keep telling us we should be ashamed?

[NewRedDawn]

41. Then I am happily Ashamed

You little Fat Gum swallowing Fascist!

[yuiyoshida]
