shutdoshut down right now because senate republicans are afraid of trump s base. all they want to do is make sure that that group of people, that 33% of the public, are able to parrot back rudy giuliani s well if he didn t hack the dnc, fine with me. and that s what you re going to hear when everyone goes out and talks to trump voters over the next couple of days, they re going to parrot back what rudy giuliani said, what they heard on fox, what they heard from sean hannity, that s the game here. we in a shutdown and we ll talk about this later, but i wonder if president trump will regret keeping nancy pelosi, adam schiff and other leading democrats around today and tomorrow to react to this buzz feed story. adam schiff already out in comment if the would have been harder for him to respond if he was in afghanistan, i will say that. also mentioned in this buzz feed story, asha, donald trump junior, ivanka trump, which are suggests that they had knowledge of this trump tower project
michael cohen is a convicted criminal and a liar, took with the prosecutors. he has trades on a pattern of lies and dishonesty over an extended period of time and for that he is going to pay a very, very serious price. today s claims are just more made up lies, and his malice and desperation in an effort to reduce his sentence. rudy giuliani s for statement this morning was rather glib, saying, if you believe michael cohen, i ve got a great deal on the brooklyn bridge for you. be more serious about it now. according to law enforcement officials, buzzfeed news says that michael cohen was told by the president to lie to congress about plans to build a trump tower in moscow. specifically, the timeline for that and the president s involvement in it. the report also says that he supported a plan during the campaign for him to travel to russia to meet with vladimir putin and tried to jump-start the the trump tower project. he says he s trying to make it happen. we also have reaction fr
haven t seen it. the buzzfeed article quotes a couple of law enforcement sources as saying that michael cohen was told from the president to lie to congress about plans to build in moscow. the timeline, it appeared that president supported a plane during the campaign to travel to russia to meet with vladimir putin to try to jump-start the trump tower project. make it happen. here s what hogan gidley said in your interview this morning. this is absolutely ludicrous that we are getting any type of prudence or credibility to a news outlet like buzzfeed. they are responsible, completely and totally for the release of a discredited, disproven, false dossier, and now the author of the peace and question that you re talking about ones on air and said that he couldn t corroborate any of his own evidence. he rented anyway. you asked him at least twice directly do you deny that this
influence by pro putin forces. what i found very interesting so build on his point is that in the reporting by the new york times is that the trump tower project was predicated on loans by two russian entities. so the idea was to relax sanctions. so when the trump tower meeting halved in june, it wasn t just the russians that wanted sanctions, the trump organization wanted sanctions. i think is lost on so many people that are looking for something so dramatic in is a simple pay to play, a simple construction, bad business, simply trump doing business the
payments. the other thing this may indicate to us is that the department of justice has signed off on this. certainly we ve seen members of congress not wanting to interfere in any part of this investigation. we don t yet know how much detail is going to go into about the moscow project, but it would seem that the department of justice certainly has told members of congress if you want him to appear before you go ahead, we are pretty much done with him and we ll see. but this is going to be a big, big day in terms for this white house and the other thing that s interesting to see, is much of what we saw around when comey, the last time someone really important in this investigation testified before members of congress publicly, what s comey and remember, everything the attention surrounding that. we ll see that here. and what is the white house going to do to try and discredit in this next month? what they are going to do to try to discredit michael cohen even further? it s a really in
