Uh Oh - The Trump Resignation or Impeachment Offramp May Be Approaching

Uh oh Here And hooray!!! (Note: after this story broke Mueller’s office put out a note denying the characterization of the BuzzFeed news scoop at link - but they didn’t refute it altogether. Stay tuned!!)

The bombshell report BuzzFeed published on Thursday that said President Donald Trump directed his personal attorney Michael Cohen to lie to Congress lit up social media. 

Some of the first to react included Democratic lawmakers:

If the @BuzzFeed story is true, President Trump must resign or be impeached.

Listen, if Mueller does have multiple sources confirming Trump directed Cohen to lie to Congress, then we need to know this ASAP. Mueller shouldn’t end his inquiry, but it’s about time for him to show Congress his cards before it’s too late for us to act. https://t.co/ekG5VSBS8G

Based on the Buzzfeed report and numerous other articles showing @realDonaldTrump committed Obstruction of Justice and other possible felonies, it is time for the House Judiciary Committee to start holding hearings to establish a record of whether @POTUS committed high crimes.
