A California congressman whose ties to Russia have drawn scrutiny said Friday that Attorney General Jeff Sessions should resign after betraying President Trump and the country by failing to end special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia investigation.

“The fact that Jeff Sessions has not quit is a disloyalty to this president and to the country,” Republican Rep. Dana Rohrabacher told Fox Business Network.

“The fact is if he disagrees with what the president wants him to do, he should resign,” he continued.

Trump can’t fire Sessions, Rohrabacher argued, because he’d be accused of a massive cover-up amid Mueller’s investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election.

Sessions recused himself in March 2017 from any investigation into Trump’s campaign, opening the door for Mueller’s appointment as special counsel. Trump has since admitted he would have never nominated Sessions to lead the Justice Department if he had known about the former senator would recuse himself.

On Thursday during an interview with “Fox & Friends,” Trump put his attorney general on blast.

“I put in an attorney general that never took control of the Justice Department,” he said. “Jeff Sessions never took control of the Justice Department and it’s sort of an incredible thing.”

Sessions publicly hit back hours later, releasing a searing statement that said “the actions of the Department of Justice will not be improperly influenced by political considerations.”

“I took control of the Department of Justice the day I was sworn in,” Sessions said.
