Bolding mine. Not doubting you, but Any cite?

There’s a move in Maine to vote her out if she votes for Kavanaugh.

Thanks.

In other news, Cohen has been subpoenaed by the NY state prosecutors who are investigating the Trump Foundation.

Lanny Davis has said that Cohen has information that would interest state investigators. Apparently they want to burn this whole mess down.

If Trump has touched it, it needs to be investigated.

Leave Stormy alone!

Aside from maybe the Collins quote (and note she said “misuse” instead of “abuse”), none of those quotes on the Repub side represent any kind of warning.

“Warning” is just characterization by the writer because it reads better.

Repubs don’t want Trump to fire Mueller because it will just make them look worse since they did nothing to protect him and will do nothing if Trump fires him.

“Republicans warn Trump against Manafort pardon”

Ooooo… those are fightin’ words to the toddler in the White House. Whenever someone tells him NOT to do something, dang if he doesn’t immediately go and do it just to prove that he can (hurling his bowl of Maypo at the walls of the Oval Office). :wink:

All of the quotes may as well have ended with: “Not that we would take any action.”

These are the same sorts of things that they have said about firing Jeff Sessions or Robert Mueller.

One notes that Sessions and Mueller are still working in the Executive branch.

OK so say Trump pardons Manafort. What do you predict any of those Republicans would do?

More warnings.

I only accept warnings from SDMB mods. So hey, what about an official warning for Trump from the Dope’s mod squad? Hey, what about you, Miller, now that everything goes in the Pit and you stare into the void of a life with no more warnings given ;)?

Probably do a complete 180, break into full spin mode, and explain why the pardon was the right thing to do, and they never thought otherwise.

Frown and do that Very Important Meeting walk.

In more News That Will Piss Off Donald Trump:

  1. Cohen’s Lawyer, Lanny Davis, says that Cohen didn’t have advance notice about the infamous Trump Tower meeting but he was present when Donald & Junior discussed it, meaning Donald knew all about it.

2. Cohen, like others, claims that Donald knew about the stolen Clinton emails before they went public

  1. Cohen & Davis say that Cohen submitted his invoices for the hush money to the Trump Org CFO, Allen Weisellberg

Sorry for the link dump. It’s been a long day.

I don’t know, they could probably manage to say it is “very troubling” as they walk away.

It’s a great dump – one that makes my heart sing! Thank you.

That civil case filed by Acting New York AG Barbara Underwood is going to be the gift that keeps on giving. I am in awe of that lady. Another unsung hero in this terrible time.

Yes it is. And Judge Ellis was receiving death threats, according to the news.
