Nov. 7, 2017: The special counsel’s office sought and obtained a search warrant from Howell authorizing the “use of pen registers and trap and trace devices” that allowed them to find out who Cohen was calling and receiving calls from.

My, my. Wouldn’t we just love to know those names.

There is just so much hilarity, conspiracy, bullshittery in those few words, I can barely contain myself.

It would all be funnier if it wasn’t almost 100% guaranteed to end in violence.

Then Mark Meadows will be complicit in any deaths or injuries.

A nasty, bigoted man. And also down for treason.

He’s either going to go the Manafort route or cooperate.

One thing…Those who cooperate earlier get better dibs (this logic may be lost on Stone)

Wow. Forgot about him. Sweet.

I guess he’s taking his time-out to heart. heh heh heh.

What’s scary is that Cohen is probably one of the least criminal of the Trump Crime Syndicate. He’s a toady with a burning desire to “be somebody”, whereas the really serious criminals are in the Cabinet. Wilbur Ross is a stone cold mafioso type who’s neck-deep in money laundering and mortgage fraud. Carson commits crimes of incompetence. Betsy DeVos is a duplicitous harpy with a vicious streak of racism and financial criminality. Mnuchin is yet another massive white-collar criminal who destroyed families and lives with his foreclosure machine known as One West Bank. The list goes on, but you get the point. Cohen is a small fry.

Michael Cohen’s “crimes” are also Trump’s, even if technically it might not look like that.

Watching Ari Melber. Nick Ackerman, a former Watergate lawyer, seems pretty sure that Don and his not- too-bright-son are mentioned in the redacted portions of court documents.

its apparently even less than meets the eye. The allegation is that “ambassadors” and/or “people in the state department” passed on the Steele Dossier.

And that makes the whole thing a deep state conspiracy (rather than public officials reporting evidence of a severe national security threat).

Spot on! I love it. From the Wiki machine: …(Harpies) were generally depicted as birds with the heads of maidens, faces pale with hunger and long claws on their hands. Roman and Byzantine writers detailed their ugliness.[4] Pottery art depicting the harpies featured beautiful women with wings. Ovid described them as human-vultures.[5]
