🔥#BREAKING: Michael Cohen says he WITNESSED Donald Trump Jr tell his father about upcoming Trump Tower meeting with Russians offering Clinton dirt, on June 9, 2016. per @carlbernstein @jimsciutto

Of COURSE Trump knew about the Trump Tower meeting. Here's a refresher on the bombshell significance of that June mtg and how to avoid team Trump & team Putin propaganda about it. Russia dangled dirt for sanctions relief and Trump jumped. And kept jumping. medium.com/@PaulaChertok/…

Trump lawyer Rudy Giuliani: "OK Russia hacked. Did he have something to do with that? NO. Did he get the fruits of Russian hacking unknowingly? NO! But if he did, he did nothing wrong…Also Cohen is a proven liar. There's no way you're gonna take down the president of US w/ him."

WOW >> Not only is Michael Cohen willing to testify under oath to Mueller that he witnessed Trump Jr telling Trump about the Russians' offer on Clinton dirt ahead the Trump Tower meeting. Cohen says Trump APPROVED the meeting. AND OTHERS WERE PRESENT. cnn.com/2018/07/26/pol…

I stand by my July '17 take: The meeting was earth-shattering. It provided key information to Russia…that helped and perhaps even launched the Kremlin’s 2016 attack on America’s democracy, an attack Trump is still covering up to protect himself, his family…his cohorts in Russia

So who were the “others” Michael Cohen says witnessed Trump tell Jr that he approved of his campaign meeting with Russians to get Clinton dirt? @Reince Priebus was in Trump Tower on June 9. That would mean RNC knew of Russian interference too. Might explain GOP abdication & 🤐

Cohen says Trump knew of Trump Tower meeting w/ Russians before it happened and approved it. That’s 2 yrs of lies about an attack on our country POTUS encouraged, participated in, benefited from & covered up. Who gets to keep their prize when cheating helped them win?? #Maddow

Stunning. "If he misled the committee, he's lying to Congress. That's a crime. That'd be up to the prosecutors, NOT ME”—Judiciary Chair @ChuckGrassley won’t bring DonJr back despite reports Cohen witnessed him telling Trump about #TrumpTowerMeeting cnn.it/2LAADWn @mkraju
