“… “The March 31 comments by this Papadopoulos person did not leave a lasting impression,” said the person familiar with Sessions’ views. “As far as Sessions seemed to be concerned, when he shut down this idea of Papadopoulos engaging with Russia, that was the end of it and he moved the meeting along to other issues.”

The source added, “Papadopoulos was some 29-year old that nobody had ever heard of and who struck people in the room as someone who didn’t have a lot of credibility.”

The source said Sessions was not aware that Papadopoulos had been offered “dirt” on Clinton or emails. …”
