Donald Trump’s personal lawyer and longtime confidant Michael Cohen strode into a secure room in the Capitol on Tuesday to answer questions in the ongoing probe of Russian interference in the 2016 election.

The normally outspoken Brooklyn lawyer stayed quiet on his way into a closed hearing with the House Intelligence Committee, two weeks after he angered senators when he released a lengthy and defiant public statement about the congressional probes.

Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Richard Burr, R-N.C., and Vice Chairman Mark Warner, D-Va., released a statement after that earlier meeting came to an abrupt end, chastising Cohen for releasing his own statement ahead of the interview.

Ruh-roh. I bet those were some sweaty palms on Cohen today.

1. Why? Obviously this investigation is meaningless

I'll await Mueller because the way the GOP's are reacting, he must be real close.

4. You're right. These congressional committees, especially in the house, are a charade.

It's safe to assume Cohen went to tell them how to craft the "investigation" and its "findings" in a way that shields trump.

As for Mueller, that's also a charade. He's just running out the clock. You'll be waiting forever because nothing will come of what he's doing -- kind of like "Fitzmas."

2. No he isn't nervous because house intelligence committee is a joke
