Adam Schiff
@RepAdamSchiff
The President’s legal arguments would render whole sections of the Constitution moot, and allow a president to engage in any form of criminality and obstruct an investigation into his own wrongdoing. Nobody is above the law. Not this President. Not any president.

As much as these latest moves by Trump have been concerning, this gave me a giggle. I thought, ‘DO IT ASAP!’

A few of the mysterious characters with history of being right (@minggao and @counterchekist) are hinting something about Monday.....

It's interesting that the whole Trump clan (bar Melania) even Tiffany, are in Camp David. Not Mar-a-Lago. No golf. Hmmm.

I hope something is afoot rubs hands in schadenfreude glee

Not quite the full Bedminster experience, though, MissM, Grin
There has been some speculation this is more a 'what to do about Melania' w/e, than NoKo prep.

Interesting to see what the next non-Guiliani move will be from Trumpy.

PerkingFaintly · 03/06/2018 10:12

Indeed, MissMarple, this is too secret for Mar-A-Lago, where he merely deals with national security issues and international crises, at the dining table surrounded by the public.

So Camp David means he's discussing something he actually does want kept secret. Some form of personal jeopardy.

But which? So much choice...

lionheart · 03/06/2018 10:27

Certain other payments.

Stai zitto, Gowdy!:

'Trump allies have been pummeling Gowdy in recent days, branding him a gullible or clueless backer of the intelligence community. Trump’s personal attorney, Rudy Giuliani, labeled him “uninformed.” Another Trump-tied attorney, Victoria Toensing, said Gowdy “doesn’t know diddly-squat” about the particulars of federal investigations. And Fox News host Lou Dobbs tagged him a “RINO” — a term for a fake Republican.'

DJT's birthday is 14 June but he might be dealing with backwash of summit, then (12 June), which he needs to prepare for in the week before, too. Much as I like to hope the Corrupt family is dealing with "Is it time to resign!?" crisis, I imagine this retreat is just an early birthday celeb'n.

Not sure what Eric is up to this weekend, but if it's serious, omertà type, family business, why is Tiffany there? She has been leaky, and is not involved in Trumpco.

Tiffany is studying law. Maybe she's their legal adviser. 😉.

She can't be worse than the duo who put that weird letter together. 😁

Where is Baron this weekend, WH or CD? Every time someone speculates about Melania leaving the turd, I wonder about her poor kid. Whether she feels bound to stay with the sugar-daddy for Baron's sake. Lots of women would stay for that reason. :(

Roussette · 03/06/2018 11:28

Does DJT ever see his young son? So if this is a birthday celebration, why isn't he there? It just adds fuel to the fire that Melania has done a runner. He looks like a sweet kid, I feel so sorry for him

Anniegetyourgun · 03/06/2018 12:06

Looks like Gowdy finally discovered where he'd left his conscience, or, at least, a line that even he isn't prepared to cross.

I hate to think what (e.g.) McConnell's uncrossable line would be.
