It's an old off! But McCain doesn't understand what he's up against! While McCain is ancient in human terms, Sessions has seen many trees grow from sapling to ruinous age.

Has anyone ever tried chucking him in the ocean? That's how they got rid of Legolas.

I'm very concerned by Russia's hostile foreign policy even though I never asked for any sort of briefing regarding their interference in our election.

I'm very concerned but not enough to do literally anything, even if it's my job.

"What the gently caress were you talking about with the Russian Ambassadors, since I know you don't really care about Ukraine from our time serving together"

"Why the hell are Russians snooping around our infrastructure and what is the executive branch going to do to stop this poo poo"

Apparently Sessions didn't talk the Russian ambassadors about any of the major points of contention between them and the US. So it leaves it a reasonable question - what the gently caress did they talk about?

He also lightly called him out for not being particularly interested/curious in security briefings about the Russian election threat.

Inverted Offensive Battle: Acupuncture Attacks Convert To 3D Penetration Tactics Taking Advantage of Deep Battle Opportunities

Yeah, Sessions lashing out at Wyden is the clip that's getting played the most, from what I'm seeing.

e: Schiff is on CNN. Talking about taking "whatever steps necessary" to "compel" Sessions to answer the questions that he so stolidly dodged today. He's referring to holding Sessions in contempt. That would be fun to see.
