Sessions lashes back at Trump

-

WASHINGTON— President Donald Trump blasted Attorney General Jeff Sessions on Wednesday, labeling the country’s top law enforcemen­t official as “disgracefu­l” over his handling of White House allegation­s of illegal wiretappin­g. In a statement, Sessions fired back. “As long as I amthe attorney general, I will continue to discharge my duties with integrity and honor,” he said. The outbursts may reflect Trump’s mounting fear or frustratio­n as the investigat­ion, led by independen­t special prosecutor Robert Mueller, focused increasing­ly on the president’s inner circle and possibly Trump himself.
