WOULD SENATE REPUBLICANS REALLY REFUSE TO CONFIRM A SESSIONS REPLACEMENT?
*The New York Times* reports, unsurprisingly, that in March of last year President Trump urged Jeff Sessions to reverse his recusal in the Russia investigation. Buried in the middle of the *Times* story is a detail that piqued the interest of Lawrence O'Donnell and John Heilemann on O'Donnell's show last night: LAWRENCE O'DONNELL: John Heilemann, we've noticed that Jeff Sessions has real friends among Republicans in the Senate.

Gutmann on Xinjiang: Is this what's in store for Taiwan when China comes over?
Gutmann has for years been working on CCP organ harvesting from political prisoners. He made this talk last month but for some reason it only popped up in my feed yesterday.
