The ranking member of the Senate Intelligence Committee on Sunday refused to confirm or deny that it was investigating whether Michael Cohen was involved in pardon discussions.
The Washington Post reported Saturday night, citing unnamed people familiar with the matter, that lawmakers were investigating just that.
According to the Post, members of the House and Senate Intelligence committees pressed Cohen in recent private hearings on whether, in the paper’s words, “he had had any discussions about a possible pardon, and if so, when and with whom those conversations took place.”
Asked about the report Sunday, Senate Intelligence Committee Ranking Member Mark Warner (D-VA) stayed mum.
“Chuck, I cannot comment on what went on in a classified setting,” he told NBC News’ Chuck Todd, adding that there would be an “appropriate time to have the reveal.”
The Post said it was unclear what led lawmakers to ask Cohen about pardon talks. Cohen has said he would not accept a pardon from the President.
If this is true it’s time for articles of impeachment on the open, blatant obstruction of justice. I doubt this could succeed but it’s outrageous that he’d even try. Enough is enough.
Calling @tena … Tena line one ! … STAT —
Yes? hahahahaha
And yes I think he can be impeached for this if not just indicted and tried. It’s obstruction of justice and that’s what took Nixon down.
Hi I’m Donald Trump. I always tell the truth, I swear. And I only hire the best people. But for some reason more and more of them keep turning out to be liars, frauds and assorted felons and say horrible things about me, total lies. This is just really bad luck, and totally unfair.
Except in a way it’s good luck because when they turn state’s evidence, they have already proved themselves to be habitual liars, and so they’re unreliable witnesses against me. But still, it’s a pain in the ass and I paid all these people good money to keep their mouths shut…or don’t they know what an NDA is?
Also, I have all the best lawyers and what I can tell you is if your lawyer doesn’t tell you something is illegal, you can’t have committed any crimes, that’s just how it works. This is like really old, important law from like the Magna Carta or something, but the socialist deep state witch hunters don’t want you to know that. And most people don’t. Sad.
ya just can’t have matt start this off like that without the phrase …
