Wouldn’t want to set a precedent, however.

But of course she’s denying it.

I guess that’s an “existential” denial from her “existential” attorney.

I wonder who does her “existential” hair highlights?

So apparently results from multiple investigations aren’t accurate??

I suppose we’ll hear this defense more than once.

She acts so high and mighty but I bet she drinks out of the toilet just like all the rest of Trump’s pet poodles do.

Did Cohen testify that Hicks was on the call? If not, can they bring him out of prison to testify?

So now it’s up to the FBI to leak the actual transcripts of the phone calls right? And the dotard can explode in righteous indignation that President Obama really did “tap his phones”?

I would soooo love to watch this chick go to jail. She’d look awful in orange and it would drive her mad. Plus, are they even allowed tweezers? I think a picture of her without makeup in an orange jumpsuit sporting a unibrow would make me laugh harder than I have in ages.

It is against the Geneva Conventions to make a former model go without lowlights, you monster. She will have to get salon release on a biweekly basis.
