Trump says he would 'love to speak' with Robert Mueller

According to a report by The Washington Post, Special Prosecutor Robert Mueller, who is heading the independent Russian Federation probe, told Trump's legal team that he might subpoena the President to testify if he refused to cooperate with the investigation into cooperation between his 2016 presidential campaign and the Kremlin. In fact, against my lawyers, because most lawyers, they never speak on anything. Trump initially said he was eager for an interview, but he hasn't said so recently. "He may say, 'No, matters relating to personnel are exclusively mine, and I claim a substantive privilege with that'". Some of them have asked for an unredacted version of a Justice Department document that sets out the scope for Mueller's probe, a request that the department immediately denied because it pertains to an ongoing investigation.

The latest upheaval of the president's legal team comes as Trump has adopted an increasingly hostile posture toward the special counsel, whose investigation has expanded into an examination of whether Trump obstructed justice by seeking to shut down the probe.

The Mueller probe is also looking at Trump's firing of former FBI Director James Comey and other actions that might constitute obstruction of justice.

Rudy Giuliani said Wednesday night that he would charge into special counsel Robert Mueller's offices "with a lance" if Russian Federation probe investigators went after Ivanka Trump, but that her husband Jared Kushner as a man is "disposable".

In 1998, independent prosecutor Ken Starr served a subpoena on Clinton that ordered him to testify about his relationship with White House intern Monica Lewinsky. And if Congress threatens impeachment for defying a court order, Trump should tell them: impeach me and be damned. His attorney is now negotiating with Democrats in the Senate Judiciary Committee about another meeting.

The media insistence that the "Stormy Daniels" matter is relevant to the election suggests a sense of desperation by the media that there is no evidence against Trump.

In a series of other morning tweets on Friday, Trump knocked NBC News for walking back a report on Thursday that federal agents had placed a wiretap on phone lines associated with Trump's personal attorney, Michael Cohen.

Flood was always the top choice of White House counsel Don McGahn for the job Cobb was given last summer, according to a person familiar with the hiring decision who described Flood as a "fighter". "Who played a role?" reads one question.

The conservative First Amendment lawyer Jay Sekulow has also endured.

Flood initially turned down the president previous year when asked to join the White House for the post that Cobb later accepted.

That attorney added that Cobb did deserve credit for helping right the ship from the Kasowitz era with his cooperative approach toward Mueller, and Cobb himself said in an interview his time in the White House had come to its natural end.

"I don't see this becoming a case", he said. One of Trump's lawyers announced Giuliani's addition to the team on April 19.
