Session "Tells" All

I believe I heard Sessions end his "denial" of Russian contacts saying "I didn't. I did have contact with the Russians." Is it a "tell" in observation of a persons's behavior for uttering a false statement...or a planned way to later have some plausible deniability. His history of racism makes me suspect low intelligence and therefor the former--a tell.
I find interesting his downward-left glances when he makes other questionable statements---quite often. He's not alone on that though.
His dropping a partial recuse with no explanation shows he is buying time to make a cover, but there are to many loose threads all unraveling. The shoes are dropping faster than they can be picked up. Time to send Trump and his team to the showers.
