Since the raid was was within the purview of the NY feds, Trump has no pardon power when it comes to Cohen. Has this already been mentioned? No? Yes? If it has this delicious nugget deserves to be repeated.

The FBI searching the office of the private attorney of a sitting president. Holy crap, that must be some major probable cause.

When can we start using the term consigliere, instead of lawyer, for Cohen? Paying off a porn star feels more former than latter.

Yep, Popehat is usually great on stuff like this. He’s right — it’s a Big Deal.

This clip will never stop grossing me out. Not only does he pat her hips (why? just why?) he looks at her boobs. It’s such a weird thing to do to your daughter!

I an curious about law details. I found this. Am not a lawyer. Hope info is straight: Popehat lawsplainer The Search of Trump Lawyer Michael Cohen’s Office: What We Can Infer Immediately 

Of course Trump has issued a reserved, dignified and measured response. And by that I mean he’s going on a Twitter rant calling this a witch hunt. The dominoes are starting to fall.

From a lawyer’s perspective it’s pretty jaw dropping. For them to get a warrant for documents that are presumed to be privileged, they need to make a pretty compelling showing that the privilege doesn’t apply because the lawyer is helping his client commit a crime or a fraud. I’m so freaking excited.

Yep, he simply does not give a fuck about the country. Giving a fuck is what causes the stress.

I hope he does. Aside from the enormous outrage, he will still be on the hook for state charges. The charges against him won’t magically disappear.

The job is not remotely stressful for him. He works two hours a day. And mostly just tweets.

Apparantly he’s contemplating firing Mueller.

Trump’s obesity, no exercise, and one of the most stressful jobs on the planet. Throw in this new lawyer trouble with a dash of Trump anger, and you have a high chance of heart attack or stroke.

Sen. Duckworth is the first senator to give birth while in office! Well… not literally, you know what I mean. But anyways, this news definitely doesn’t belong in “barf bag” even if morning sickness may be involved!

Mueller and the NY AG just squeezed the vise on orange menace. Any bets on what dumb shit he does next.

Lordy, I hope there are tapes.

Can we get a counter on how often this orange moron says “sacred”? This dipshit has 9 words in his phrase book. I just can’t anymore.

If walls could talk, folks!
