It really hasn't gotten enough attention that Parnas and Fruman were members of Trump's legal team, according to their attorney John Dowd.

On March 25, the day after Barr released a summary of the Mueller report, Parnas posted photos from what he called a celebratory dinner with the Trump legal team at Trump's hotel in DC.

2. Are they claiming attorney-client privilege?

What a racket.

3. Trump barely knows them!

Really, they were just two of an endless passing parade of lawyers Trump has engaged (not hired, not paid) to handle a legal matter or two. It's like asking a ticket taker at Disneyland if he remembers two one-timers who came through his line four years ago.

4. He just took photos with everyone

The entire ReTHUG party is associated with these criminals.

5. John Dowd was one of Trump's top lawyers during the bulk of the Mueller

Investigation. He's the kind of lawyer Trump couldn't get now. For a lot more on Dowd, read Bob Woodward's book Fear. He's the source for the famous last line of that book: "You're a fucking liar".

6. Kick...

because I find it fascinating that John Dowd is the source here. I can't pretend to know the significance of him speaking out about this. It seems ominous.

EDIT:

By the way, John Dowd doesn't come cheap. He charges $200,000 a month for his legal services. However, he agreed to represent Trump for $100,000 a month. (Source: Fear, by Woodward)

8. Why is the media backstaging it?

7. If Trump says water is wet then its best to double check, he lies when silence would serve him bette

9. Who else is sitting at that table?

Inquiring minds want to know...Barr?

10. Funny, when asked about Lev & Igor, Trump said he didn't know them!

Said "you'd have to ask Rudy". Hmmmm, the greatest brain of all time suddenly can't remember a guy who seems to be crawling out from every rock.
