This morning's press gaggle with future House Intel Committee Chair Adam Schiff is worth a listen. In addition to expressing his concerns that "the Russians possess financial leverage over the (so-called) President of the United States," Schiff noted that since Michael Cohen has now entered a guilty plea to lying to Congress, it's time to ask Robert Mueller to check all the other TrumpWorld testimony for, ahem, falsehoods.
REP. ADAM SCHIFF: What does it mean now about how much we can rely on what the president is saying about any continuing Russian financial interests? This, I think, only underscores the importance of bringing back Mr. Cohen before our committee but also looking into this issue of whether the Russians possess financial leverage over the President of the United States. Very significant, obviously, in terms of the Russian investigation and clearly indicates that the special counsel is getting meaningful cooperation from Mr. Cohen.
REPORTER: What would you do to determine whether there was any financial leverage that the Russians have over the president?
