Michael Cohen will give Congress evidence of Trump criminal conduct, source says

So attorney client privilege does not apply if Trump is involved?

Until President Trump sues Michael Cohen for violating attorney-client privilege. Not like the extreme liberals are any angels. Michael Moore took advantage of claiming he lives in an area to take tax credits. He has done a lot of questionable things. If the FBI, DOJ did their jobs and actually, prosecuted people for violating the law without regard to political party and connections, a lot of Democrats would be in jail already serving long prison sentences! Being politicized by Obama, FBI and DOJ liberal partisans seek Republicans and conservatives for prosecution for the tiniest misdeeds they can find and use it for political partisan gain! We already know how they selectively, did a hit job on the Tea Party and nobody involved even got their hands slapped or criminally, prosecuted!

They're panicking. Also, how is this not extortion/witness tampering?

Republican congressman Matt Gaetz sends apparent threat to Michael Cohen, alleging affair

Florida Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz posted on Twitter that Cohen's wife was "about to learn a lot" about him and accused the former Trump attorney and fixer of being unfaithful in his marriage.

"Hey @MichaelCohen212 - Do your wife & father-in-law know about your girlfriends?" Gaetz wrote on Twitter. "Maybe tonight would be a good time for that chat. I wonder if she’ll remain faithful when you’re in prison. She’s about to learn a lot..."

‘I was happy to do it for you’: Matt Gaetz overheard making stunning admission to Trump about Cohen threat

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) has fallen under investigation for an apparent threat against Michael Cohen — which he may have made at President Donald Trump’s request.

The Florida Bar Association is investigating a tweet Gaetz made, and later deleted, apparently threatening to reveal Cohen’s alleged infidelities to his wife, a day before the former Trump Organization lawyer testified before the House Oversight Committee.

Rep. Stacey Plaskett (D-Virgin Islands) suggested during Wednesday’s hearing that he should be referred for possible criminal prosecution for witness intimidation or tampering.

Edward-Isaac Dovere, a staff reporter for The Atlantic, tweeted Thursday that he overheard a phone conversation between Gaetz and Trump, whom he said called the Florida Republican from Hanoi to discuss the Cohen testimony and apparent threat.

“I was happy to do it for you,” Gaetz said, according to Dovere. “You just keep killing it.”

Gaetz later refused to discuss the call, but Walter Shaub, the former director of the United States Office of Government Ethics, said the lawmaker’s comments should be investigated by both the Florida Bar and the Office of Congressional Ethics.

Congress ethics panel probes Gaetz over ex-Trump lawyer Cohen

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. House of Representatives Ethics Committee said on Friday it will investigate Republican lawmaker Matt Gaetz after allegations he tried to threaten and influence the congressional testimony of President Donald Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen.

The Florida Bar said shortly after Gaetz’s Twitter post that it had opened an investigation into the comments. That investigation is now before a grievance committee, spokeswoman Francine Walker said Friday.
