So there are Tapes, recordings on Michael Cohen……The Poop just got real.

Robert Mueller is now taking down the National Enquirer for its criminal ties to Donald Trump. Everything Trump touches dies. And if it doesn’t die, Mueller kills it.
This is the most important news so far out of the Comey book: Trump, as president-elect, didn't give a damn about the Russian attack on the US and was unconcerned about preventing a repeat. That is a profound dereliction of duty. pic.twitter.com/jIGmEJI5S3

Well and then there’s little Paul’s role in laundered money flowing to the RNC and various other crimes ….
The President considers firing the Attorney General, Deputy AG, and Special Counsel and the House Intel Chair considers impeaching the FBI Director — all to obstruct an investigation into wrongdoing by the President or those around him. @SpeakerRyan response: I’m outta here.
I will never forget that President Barack Obama supported Comey to the end. Suggest that others never forget that fact, as well.
Please help us through this, Former @FBI Director @Comey.
If @realdonaldtrump wanted you to investigate if his BFF @PutinRF_Eng had video of prostitute(s) showering him, isn't that effectively admitting the showers happened?
Scoop here from NBC: Mueller likely to report at least four "findings" on Trump and obstruction of justice, including dangling pardons to grand jury witnesses:https://t.co/r8jtJ2q87j

1. My peeps, we're at act 1 of SUBPOENA FEST. Trump is NOT going to sit with Mueller, and let me tell you, no way Mueller didn't expect this when he handed over the Cohen case to SDNY. https://t.co/30564ul3vx
BREAKING from @SenBlumenthal on MSNBC: "If Trump refuses to be interviewed, I think Bob Mueller has no choice but to subpoena him." "If Trump takes the Fifth it will be widely seen as an admission of culpability."
This is no longer about Democrats & Republicans. It’s about those who value the rule of law; and those who seek to destroy it to save themselves. Liberty’s last line of defense is the law’s check on political power.
Opposing tyrants is in America’s DNA. We got this, patriots.
Trump pardons Scooter Libby because he, “feels Scooter was treated unfairly”. Single that he will pardon Manaford but not the others who squealed. Pence will pardon Trump if he is indicted, impeached, or removed for federal crimes. No pardons possible for state crimes unless NY gets a Rethug governor.
Ronan Farrow is becoming a Great Journalist.
Thread is worth reading
In late 2015, the parent company of the National Enquirer, AMI—whose CEO, David Pecker, is a close ally of Trump’s—paid a former Trump Tower doorman $30,000 for the rights to a shaky claim, then added what sources said was an unusual $1,000,000 penalty if he ever disclosed it. pic.twitter.com/vimJuFQQn6
Why is this alleged payment by American Media, Inc. to hide an unflattering Trump story significant? Ronan Farrow says it "establishes a pattern" of "illicit" payments — it follows similar claims by Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal. pic.twitter.com/T99OGWUhAb

When Trump said that he would select the “best” people, he must have meant the best people to steal tax payer dollars.

According to a report from NBC News, Special Counsel Robert Mueller has collected four findings on Donald Trump’s attempt to obstruct justice.
His intent to fire former FBI Director James Comey;
His role in the crafting of a misleading public statement on the nature of a June 2016 Trump Tower meeting between his son and Russians;
Trump’s dangling of pardons before grand jury witnesses who might testify against him; and
Pressuring Attorney General Jeff Sessions not to recuse himself from the Russia investigation.
The use of the word “intent” in that first one could be significant, as explained by Renato Mariatti.
Impeding or influencing an FBI investigation is a crime only if it is done with “corrupt” intent—in other words, the intent to wrongfully impede the administration of justice.
Update: There is no petition seeking a pardon for Scooter Libby on file with the Justice Department’s Pardon Attorney, a DOJ spokesperson tells me. This means that if it is being considered, it is not going through the normal process.
Though I heard on some show last night (Maddow? LOD?) that Libby’s law license and voting rights have already been restored. Why would he accept a pardon now and thus admit guilt?
Remember when President Clinton pardoned Mark Rich and Eric Holder OK’d the pardon? The RWNJ were all up in arms that Clinton pardoned someone like Marc Rich who was convicted of tax evasion. His wife was a big DEM contributor.

Rachel Maddow shares new NBC News reporting that because Donald Trump has backed out of the idea submitting to an interview with Robert Mueller, the investigation can procede to the next phase, closing the obstruction part of their inquiry with a focus on four key findings findings in Trump’s attempt to obstruct justice.
Rachel Maddow reads passages from “A Higher Loyalty,” the not-yet-released book by James Comey, including Comey’s likening of the nascent Trump administration to a mafia family, and Donald Trump’s reaction to being informed of the Steele dossier.
Wall Street Journal: “Two people who spoke to Mr. Trump during the week said they came away thinking both Rod Rosenstein, the deputy attorney general who appointed Mr. Mueller, and Attorney General Jeff Sessions would soon be gone, potentially sparking a political and constitutional crisis.”
If he fires Sessions the White Nationalists will never forgive him and you will see his poll numbers drop into the teens or twenties. Once his favorability is way below 30% the GOP will move to impeach the bastard.
Rachel Maddow shows how the Republican Party with Fox News is coordinating its effort to smear the FBI, its top officials, Robert Mueller, and James Comey as Comey’s book is set for release and the Mueller investigation is coming together.
On the day the President wrongly attacks Comey for being a “leaker and liar” he considers pardoning a convicted leaker and liar, Scooter Libby. This is the President’s way of sending a message to those implicated in the Russia investigation: You have my back and I‘ll have yours.
Nicolle Wallace talks with Rachel Maddow about breaking news that Donald Trump intends to pardon former Dick Cheney chief of staff, Scooter Libby, and her belief that Trump and his media cohorts are conditioning the public for more pardons to come.
