Former senior national security officials to issue declaration on national emergency

https://www.washingtonpost.com/world...57b_story.html

Quote:
A bipartisan group of 58 former senior national security officials will issue a statement Monday saying that “there is no factual basis” for President Trump’s proclamation of a national emergency to build a wall on the U.S.-Mexico border.

The joint statement, whose signatories include former secretary of state Madeleine Albright and former defense secretary Chuck Hagel, will come a day before the House is expected to vote on a resolution to block Trump’s Feb. 15 declaration.

The former officials’ statement, which will be entered into the Congressional Record, is intended to support lawsuits and other actions challenging the national emergency proclamation and to force the administration to set forth the legal and factual basis for it.

Donny's trade representative publicly calls out president's ignorance on trade deals in incident that reportedly left Trump 'embarrassed'

Yeah, you're beyond embarrassment, Donny. Your utter incompetence is well documented, and widely known. Only your idiot Trumpkins are blind to it.

AT&T Defeats U.S. Appeal to Kill Time Warner Deal

This has always been about political hacks in DOJ doing Donny’s bidding. It failed, just like his idiot wall, and his illegitimate presidency, will fail. Huge waste of taxpayer money.

It was also the first major merger challenge under President Donald Trump, who vowed to oppose the tie-up during the 2016 election campaign and as president has attacked Time Warner’s CNN for its news coverage.

Michael Cohen reportedly to testify that Trump knew of WikiLeaks plot

https://www.washingtonpost.com/natio...ikileaks-plot/

Quote:
Michael Cohen, President Trump’s former lawyer, will tell Congress on Wednesday that Trump knew that his longtime adviser Roger Stone was communicating with WikiLeaks about publishing stolen emails from the Democratic National Committee, according to the text of his prepared opening statement published by multiple news organizations.

In the prepared remarks, first published by Politico, Cohen calls Trump a “racist,” a “conman” and a “cheat” and levels accusations that the president personally signed a check to cover “hush money payments” to keep quiet an affair with adult-film actress Stormy Daniels. Cohen also plans to testify that he previously lied to Congress about when Trump abandoned a business project in Moscow, although he will deny that Trump personally told him to lie.

“He is a racist. He is a conman. He is a cheat,” the remarks say, referring to Trump. “He was a presidential candidate who knew that Roger Stone was talking with Julian Assange about a WikiLeaks drop of Democratic National Committee emails.”
Indeed his is all the above.

Donald J. Trump

@realDonaldTrump
Michael Cohen was one of many lawyers who represented me (unfortunately). He had other clients also. He was just disbarred by the State Supreme Court for lying & fraud. He did bad things unrelated to Trump. He is lying in order to reduce his prison time. Using Crooked’s lawyer!
