Report: Trump Huddled With Attorney Marc Kasowitz About Cohen Raid
Source: Talking Points Memo

President Donald Trump met with attorneys Marc Kasowitz and Jay Sekulow on Tuesday following the FBIs raid of the office, home and hotel room of Michael Cohen, Trumps longtime personal attorney, Bloomberg News reported Tuesday, citing a source familiar with the matter.
Though the raid was carried out by the U.S. attorneys office in the Southern District of New York, the lawyers view the raid as an extension of special counsel Robert Muellers probe, according to Bloomberg News.
Kasowitz (pictured above) left Trumps outside legal team in charge of the Russia investigations in July 2017, but traveled to Washington, D.C. to meet with Trump Tuesday, per Bloomberg News. Sekulow is the lead outside attorney responsible for the Russia probe now that John Dowd has bowed out.
Since the raid on Cohens residences and office, Trump has raged against Mueller and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who reportedly signed off on the raid.

(13,543 posts)Marc Kasowitz, President Trumps personal attorney on the Russia case, threatened a stranger in a string of profanity-laden emails Wednesday night.
The man, a retired public relations professional in the western United States who asked not to be identified, read ProPublicas story this week on Kasowitz and sent the lawyer an email with the subject line: Resign Now.
Kasowitz replied with series of angry messages sent between 9:30 p.m. and 10 p.m. Eastern time. One read: Im on you now. You are fucking with me now Lets see who you are Watch your back , bitch.
In another email, Kasowitz wrote: Call me. Dont be afraid, you piece of shit. Stand up. If you dont call, youre just afraid. And later: I already know where you live, Im on you. You might as well call me. You will see me. I promise. Bro.
