After accusing Sessions of stonewalling before he had even asked him a question, Democrat Senator Wyden asks Sessions about Comey suggesting that his recusal was problematic.
Sessions responded with fury:

Sessions took this as an attack on his character and emphatically stated there are no problems with his recusal and that he’d been honest and forthright about all of this. He called it ‘secret innuendo’ that had been leaked about him and he clearly didn’t appreciate it.
