Okay, This is New

I just heard on MSNBC that Mike Pence just hired a private lawyer about the Russian connection.

Did I hear that right?

  1. But Pence’s move to hire an outside attorney could set off a scramble among other West Wing aides — many of whom are already bracing for subpoenas —

    His (Richard Cullen) other high-profile clients have included Tom DeLay, the former Republican majority leader who was investigated by the Department of Justice for his relationship with Republican lobbyist Jack Abramoff

  2. Yep, you heard it correctly. Rember the first guy to go States evidence gets the best deal!

    Yup … just turned on Chris Matthews and that was the first thing he talked about.

    The “Traitor Trump Train” is about to jump the track.

    Just part of the Trump Job Creation Program. It’s in the AHCA… toward the back… down at the bottom… small type.

    I hate to give Pence even a shred of doubt but I think he’s just being prudent. EVERYONE is going to get subpoenas here. He’s planning on being ready.
    Just as everyone in the WH had better be if they want to stay out of jail.

    And Pence is far from out of any woods. He claimed to know nothing — NOTHING — about Flynn. That was a couple of months after Yates informed the campaign of all the down and dirty on him.
    Who was the head of that campaign?
    Oh, that’s right.

    Pence NEEDS a lawyer. And, being smarter than Tweety by about 72 miles, he knows better than to get someone whose experience, up till now, has been real estate law and making threats.

    Shouldn’t Mikey Dense be hiring two law firms? One to cover his time associated with Donnie and one to cover his time as Gov of Indiana. Like a former VP and Gov before him, Mikey does have a number of Agnew qualities.

    Just now on The Last Word (MSNBC) Lawrence O’Donnell has connected the dots between Pence having established a PAC in mid-May ostensibly to fund future campaigns, say a presidential run in 2020. Guess what? Politicians can use PAC funds and/or campaign funds to pay for legal fees. Pence has a $5,000/plate fundraiser in Indianapolis tomorrow night. “Ass meet crack.”

    I wonder if Sessions and Rosenstein have retained personal counsel yet…

    Pence is beginning the “lets see which rats can get away from the sinking ship first” run. And he has plenty to sleaze away from. Pence is a hypocrite, sycophant and oh yes ran much of traitor trumps campaign. He’s into the Russian collusion up to his sanctimonious ears.

  11. Have to agree with you all on Pence. After all, he did walk dutifully behind CJ for like months carrying a shovel to catch the fall out. Don’t anybody tell me Pence is illiterate. I bet he did read some of the stuff on his shovel. As for Flynn, yeeee gads, Pence is not way innocent! but what can you expect from a guy who was an uncreative back bencher for years.

    I get so tired of waiting for it all to collapse. I told my husband we should get all our doctor stuff done before Medicare disappears.
    Probably we all need lawyers. Trump et al think of things routinely that would never enter my mind.
