Trump hired Kasowitz and some other guys for the Russia investigation.
Micheal Cohen is his personal lawyer, but he's not representing him here. Cohen is balls-deep into Russian shit. Remember this weird story? https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/19/us/politics/donald-trump-ukraine-russia.html
No. It's Claude Taylor.
If you live in DC, I suggest you go for it. It's the season's hot new thing. No one who's anyone will be seen at a Starbucks or Whole Foods without their lawyer.

Damn. We are blessed to have a president who's creating so many jobs.
I just got off the phone. I'll be representing one of the squirrels that hangs out around the ellipse.
I tried to tell him I wasn't a lawyer, but - you know - squirrel brains.

Is the point to create layers of obsfucation? Like the "7 proxies meme? Just to make it harder to get answers during testimonies....
"Sir, what did Trump know about Flynn?"
"Senator, I've never spoken to or met Trump so I can't say."
"But you are his attorney?"
"Yes. I'm here to represent Trump at this deposition via representing his attorney despite never meeting Trump."
"So you know nothing about Trump or Flynn?"
"Not a thing. Just the way he wants it."

Yeah I'm still skeptical on Claude. If we hear anything in the next two weeks then I'll give him credit but until then nah.
However, I do think he said Kushner was a person of interest a week or so before it was ever officially confirmed.
Also something about the digital director of Trump's team being interviewed by the FBI.

Yea this guy is known to be full of shit.
It's Claude Taylor. Gotta be aware his signal to noise ratio (not very good).
It could be true, but wait for bettter sources
I think he gets some real info, but he's willing to just drop straight up rumors without sourcing or verifying them with other sources.
So sometimes he's getting shit out early, because some dude tells him something true and he just posts it. And sometimes he posts stuff that's not actually true, because he doesn't verify it.
Some may also be unverifiable but also true, I guess. And maybe he makes up shit to mix in.
He will continue to tweet. In his mind he is righteous and he is giving the TRUE news update for the people.
Tweets have already affected things that he has signed like the travel ban.
Maybe, maybe not. I'm not inclined to put any credence in the source.
A couple things that are true:
1) Every senior official in the administration is likely going to be a part of the investigation (even if it's something minor like just answering some questions from someone on Mueller's team - one could argue they are still being "investigated"). Most will be cleared, some may go to jail.
2) If you were someone that just wanted attention and to gain followers on Twitter, a good strategy would be to have a "source" (this could be something as credible as the octopus that picked World Cup game winners, it's still a source) and make a bunch of claims that are likely true or going to happen and people desperately want to believe, but can't be proven to be false in the immediate future. Eventually actual journalists will confirm some of stories that you "broke" and people will have forgotten about the ones that don't pan out.
Not sure why Congress is letting people like Cohen drag their feet. Oh Sorry I'm busy right now. Ill show up in a few months.
Cohen is the guy who openly admitted to delivering Russian plans for legitimizing their invasion of Ukraine by having the Trump administration accept an overthrow of the Ukrainian Government to one that would be Putin lapdogs.
They should be dragging his ass in by the balls and saying NOW

Whistle blowers?
THIS was my takeaway. It's funny as hell that Trump's lawyer is getting his own lawyer, but when I got to that part I was like "AWWWW SHIT SON"
Hey look. Sessions is lawyering up too
