President Donald Trump met with attorneys Marc Kasowitz and Jay Sekulow on Tuesday following the FBI’s raid of the office, home and hotel room of Michael Cohen, Trump’s longtime personal attorney, Bloomberg News reported Tuesday, citing a source familiar with the matter.

Though the raid was carried out by the U.S. attorney’s office in the Southern District of New York, the lawyers view the raid as an extension of special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe, according to Bloomberg News.

Kasowitz (pictured above) left Trump’s 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 Cohen’s residences and office, Trump has raged against Mueller and Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein, who reportedly signed off on the raid.

3. My right wing cousin and his friends

are going nuts, raging at Hillary getting away with everything and that "this has got to end". Totally delusional.

11. I hate to say this about your (or my relatives), but if they pop a blood vessel in the brain

Not a big loss to intelligence overall. I've been known to "provoke" a little just to watch the ruddiness increase.

4. Marc Kasowitz is a civil law attorney and is not a criminal defense type

No one ever thought that he would be of much use in a white collar case

6. Huddle away, LOSERS

Marc Kasowitz, President Trump’s 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 ProPublica’s 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: “I’m on you now. You are fucking with me now Let’s see who you are Watch your back , bitch.”

In another email, Kasowitz wrote: “Call me. Don’t be afraid, you piece of shit. Stand up. If you don’t call, you’re just afraid.” And later: “I already know where you live, I’m on you. You might as well call me. You will see me. I promise. Bro.”

10. Kasowitz is another one of Drumpf's 'best people'

Drumpf has a gift for surrounding himself with the worst quality of people. The are only there to stroke his ego while sowing chaos. The sun is setting on the American Empire in his 16 months at the helm. While a colossal failure.

I'd just cop a plea and get it over with.
