Nap thread saying Hope Hicks exposed for perjury by the Snitchin Cohen documents
Saw something earlier, but I believe she spoke with Cohen for 2 hours on 10/6 but on 10/10 signed off that she knew nothing of it or something like that.

They'll just saw that's not what they talked about and people will ignore all reason and accept it.

@rebeccaballhaus Hicks told the committee last month that she was not aware of the hush payment to Stormy Daniels when it was arranged. Today’s docs put her in phone calls with Cohen and Trump during the period the payment was arranged, but don’t explicitly say those calls were about the payment.

Dem aides are meticulously preparing a line of questioning but members worry that some of their own may go off-script. “There will be a question or two that will be Steve Cohen and not the team," Cohen told us.

@mkraju
The five areas: - Trump's direction to McGahn to fire Mueller
- Trump's direction to McGahn to publicly deny that Trump had told him to fire Mueller.
- Trump's direction to Lewandowski to tell Sessions to limit the investigation to exclude President and focus on future campaigns

Replying to @mkraju
- Trump's direction to Lewandowski to tell Sessions he will fire him if he doesn't meet with Lewandowski
- Trump's alleged witness tampering of Manafort, Cohen and others, including encouraging them not to cooperate, dangling pardons and congratulating Manafort for not flipping

GOP plans to press Mueller about his team and origins of the probe. “I think there are a lot of questions about the team," said Rep. Mike Conaway, the Texas Republican who led the House Intelligence Committee's Russia investigation, referring to the special counsel's team.

If SDNY uncovered evidence of criminal conduct by Trump in office, Cummings wrote, "this would be the second time the president has not been held accountable for his actions due to his position. The Office of the President should not be used as a shield for criminal conduct.”

@rebeccaballhaus
News: The House Oversight Committee sent a letter to SDNY asking if the DOJ policy against indicting sitting presidents played a role in the decision not to charge Trump for campaign-finance violations. Cummings also requested prosecutors’ evidence. Prosecutors Asked Why Trump Wasn’t Indicted for Campaign-Finance Violations

Asked why Trump was on the phone with Michael Cohen -- in the aftermath of new FBI records showing Trump and Cohen trying to arrange hush money deal right before 2016 elections -- Trump tells reporters: "I don't really know, I'd have to look into it. That was a long time ago."
