Trump wanted to order the Justice Department to prosecute James Comey & Hillary Clinton. Don McGahn & White House lawyers warned Trump in a memo that he could be impeached if he tried to force the Justice Dept to investigate his rivals.

ICYMI: Trump's acting AG Matt Whitaker privately counseled Trump this past spring on how he might pressure the Justice Dept to name a special counsel to investigate Hillary Clinton – around the time Trump told WH counsel he wanted HRC prosecuted.
#Maddow
Trump lackey Matthew Whitaker was counseling the White House on investigating Hillary Clinton – advising Trump on launching a new special counsel to do so – while working as chief of staff for Attorney General Jeff Sessions.
#Maddow
In July 2016, Matt Whitaker said during a radio interview that Hillary Clinton ought to have been prosecuted; 2 months later on FOX Business News, Whitaker said if Trump won, his admin should look at charging Clinton.

NEW ––> Trump admin makes FALSE case for crisis at border, laying foundation for Trump to declare a PHONY national emergency to build his useless wall. [FIFY, @PhilipRucker]

If there's such a crisis, why didn't Trump use all of the money he was allotted for the wall last year?

To avoid questions, Mark Harris, GOP candidate at the center of NC's disputed 9th District race which is in limbo over voter fraud allegations [against Harris' campaign], ran out an emergency exit, set off the fire alarm, and then sped away in a waiting car. WTAF 😂
omg
My bad. Mark Harris, who's under investigation for unprecedented election fraud perpetrated by his campaign, didn't speed away in a waiting car tonight – that happened when he was fleeing from reporters last month too. omfg 😂

Michael Schmidt, Maggie Haberman wrote this? Off to a great start lol.

source: nytimes.com/2018/11/20/us/…
According to "two people familiar with the conversation" is pathetic sourcing, let's just start there lol. Also, let's just ignore the fact that Hillary Clinton and James Comey both need investigated and the President has been calling for Clinton to be investigated forever
"Mr. McGahn had White House lawyers write a memo for Mr. Trump warning that if he asked law enforcement to investigate his rivals, he could face a range of consequences, including possible impeachment."

I guarantee this is bs. The memo wouldn't say "investigate his rivals"

Trump Wanted to Order Justice Dept. to Prosecute Comey and Clinton nyti.ms/2zk2G3V
Trump was warned that he could face consequences for abuse of power, including possible impeachment. This is one of the most blatant examples of how Trump views the DoJ as a tool to be wielded against his political enemies.

So Trump wanted to order the Justice Dept to prosecute Clinton... for emails? If he wants to go down that road, hey, how about prosecuting Ivanka? nytimes.com/2018/11/20/us/…

2/x @nra but now, having said that, can we dig deeper beyond the NRA, the american left has NO Democratic Party opposition to war. the fake Wakanda domiciled liberals and progressives have been manipulated to allies of the military-industrial-complex
3/x #nra Democrats who wore kente cloth and/or boycotted the State of the Union cannot find their voices to object to America’s bombing of Yemen, Pakistan, Afghanistan, or Somalia. hmmm
