NEW from Rep. Schiff: Before Trump Tower meeting - Don Jr placed a call to an "unknown recipient".

[kpete]

Before Trump Tower meeting, Don Jr placed a call to an unknown recipient. Between those two calls, the Democratic response recounts, Donald Jr. made a third call to a blocked number. Who might Donald Jr. have been calling?


According to the Democratic response, Democrats wanted to find out - but Republicans blocked that from happening.


"We sought to determine whether that number belonged to the president, because we also ascertained that then-candidate Trump used a blocked number," Rep. Schiff said in an interview. "That would tell us whether Don Jr. sought his father's permission to thake the meeting, and (whether) that was the purpose of the call".

3. Burner phones

True, there are valid reasons for using prepaid phones, aka burner phones. Budgetary concerns come to mind. I know lots of homeless people use prepaid phones.

Maybe you just want a phone and don't need a smartphone with a camera. Perfectly valid reason for taking the Trakfone route.

Then there are drug dealers and mobsters and people who just don't want a record of calls made and/or received.

Pop Quiz: Know anyone who might fall into the drug dealer/mobster/hiding stuff categories?

9. Schiff asked to subpoena phone records. Rs refused, Schiff says.

Fuck you Devin Nunes. All this shit is going to END when the Democrats take back the House!

Adam Schiff, as the new Chairman, is going to be a REALLY busy guy issuing subpoenas.

10. I just saw this on MSNBC with Nicole Wallace.

Congressman Swalwell said that they never got to do most of the interviews, review documents and get access to cell phone records due to Nunes who was obstructing justice from the first day. They assume Jr called his daddy about the meeting and he knew about the so called adoption lawyer who is a known Russian spy. Manafort was at that meeting so it is pretty apparent that the only person who was missing was the moron himself. Of course he was informed of everything. I bet he was even there in person for a minute or two!
