Impeachment talk grows louder after report Trump told Cohen to lie to Congress
NBC News ^ | January 18th, 2019 | By Dartunorro Clark

Calls for President Donald Trump's impeachment grew among Democrats on Friday after a report said he had directed Michael Cohen, his personal lawyer and fixer at the time, to lie to Congress about negotiations to build a Trump Tower in Moscow.

BuzzFeed News on Thursday evening reported that Cohen told special counsel Robert Mueller the president personally instructed him to lie to Congressional investigators in order to minimize links between Trump and his Moscow building project, citing two federal law enforcement officials involved in an investigation of the matter. The report also alleged that Cohen was directed to give a false impression that the project had ended before it actually did.

NBC News has not independently confirmed this report.

Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, called the allegation the “most serious to date” Thursday evening and said that his committee would look into the matter.

“The allegation that the President of the United States may have suborned perjury before our committee in an effort to curtail the investigation and cover up his business dealings with Russia is among the most serious to date,” Schiff said in a tweet. “We will do what’s necessary to find out if it’s true.”

#99. With Schiff, Lieu and Swalwell you have
* An alien invader like those in “Spaced Invaders”
* a toilet
* a BJ who also starred in “Killer Clowns From Outer Space” or was it “Plan 9 from Outer Space”.

No wonder we are in trouble.

BTW...The only thing that Schiff or Lieu could say that I would find believable would be an admission that they liked little boys.

They got a lot of cash flow from Ed Buck...
