Former Attorney General Jeff Sessions told Fox News host Neil Cavuto that he had no regrets about his decision to recuse himself from the Russia investigation, despite intense backlash from President Trump.
“You never regret doing what you believe is the right thing, Neil,” Sessions said on Saturday. “I was convinced I had to do that, I was required to do that. My faith and my commitment to law is such that I would never fail to do my duty under those circumstances and I did what I felt I had to do.”
As attorney general, Sessions recused himself from the Russia investigation amid news of contacts he had with Russia’s ambassador.
