 Jeffrey Toobin: If Dems win House, they could force Cohen to testify publicly
By Brett Samuels - 08/21/18 07:10 PM EDT

CNN legal analyst Jeffrey Toobin said Tuesday that if Democrats win control of the House, they could work with special counsel Robert Mueller to allow Michael Cohen to testify before Congress.

"Remember, Mueller and a Democratic House can now give Michael Cohen immunity without fear of jeopardizing any prosecution, since he's already pleaded guilty," Toobin tweeted after Cohen pleaded guilty to tax fraud, bank fraud and campaign finance law violations.

"That means Cohen would have to testify in grand jury and before Congress in public. We will hear more from Cohen," added Toobin, who previously warned it would be an "impeachable offense" for Trump to pardon Cohen.

You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

Meanwhile, the President is holding a rally to a packed house in West Virginia to unseat Manchin.  Thank God someone's working.
