Misleading. I think it is a disgrace, whats happening in our country. When you look at that, and you see that and so many other things, what is going on, a lot of people should be ashamed of themselves. Democrats and some republicans fear that President Trump will try to use the nunes memo as a pretext on fire those investigating, whether anyone affiliated with the trump team collaborated in any way with the russians. Issuing this blunt warning. Saying firing firing Rod Rosenstein or bob mueller could result in a constitutional crisis of the kind not seen since the saturday night massacre, speaking of nixon firing special prosecutor. The president has already fired fbi director james comey and forced out Andrew Mccabe and of course President Trump has threatened to fire bob mueller and Rod Rosenstein in a way he already had his saturday night massacre in a way over several months.

And we will bring it to you when the secretary begins talking. But first, to the tape thats been dominating the headlines. At this point we know youve heard the tape all night into today but before you hear it again, i want to provide some context so you understand why this matters. In september of 2016, two months before the election, Michael Cohen made an audio tape recording a conversation between him and then candidate donald j. Trump. In it cohen appears to be telling trump that he needs to set up a company to be used for a transfer to someone named david, our friend david, he even says.

A month before this recording was made, ami shelled out 150,000 for rights to the story of Karen Mcdougal who claimed that she had an affair with trump in 2006. The story was never published and she was temporarily silenced. Fast forward to last night. Cohens lawyer, lanny davis, released the recording to cn
