Dem: Trump presidency 'very serious security threat' for US

By John Bowden - 03/16/18 08:58 PM EDT

Rep. John Garamendi (D-Calif.) said Friday that he's "had it" with President Trump, asserting his presidency has become a "very serious security threat" for the country.

“This presidency is a very serious security threat for the United States,” Garamendi said during an interview on CNN's "The Situation Room."

"I ought to say, it’s time to get this guy out of there.”

CNN anchor Wolf Blitzer noted that Garamendi was using "strong words" to describe the president.

“I’ve had it with this president," the California Democrat responded.

Texas officials are investigating whether a Dallas-area notary properly signed off on Stormy Daniels’ agreement to stay quiet about her alleged affair with President Donald Trump.

The notary issue is the latest in a string of curiosities surrounding the murky deal involving Trump personal lawyer Michael Cohen and the adult-film actress, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford.

A notary in Forney, where Daniels lives, did not sign and date the 2016 agreement, which was finalized a few days before the presidential election. She also did not provide a certificate reflecting whose signature she was witnessing, according to the Texas Secretary of State.

Mueller Subpoenas Communications With Trump and Inner Circle

Source: Daily Beast / Axios


A grand jury subpoena reviewed by Axios that special counsel Robert Mueller sent to a witness indicates that many in President Trump’s known inner circle, and the president himself, are within the scope of the Russia investigation. The list subpoenas “all communications—meaning emails, texts, handwritten notes, etc.—that this witness sent and received” to Carter Page, Corey Lewandowski, Donald J. Trump, Hope Hicks, Keith Schiller, Michael Cohen, Paul Manafort, Rick Gates, Roger Stone, and Steve Bannon. The subpoena calls for all communications to be turned over from Nov. 1, 2015—five months after the president first announced his campaign—to the present. All of the people listed were either part of the Trump campaign or are former and current employees of the Trump White House. The subpoenas come as those within Trump’s inner circle have been suspected of being within Mueller’s sight lines, and as Manafort and Gates have already been indicted by the special counsel, with Gates recently pleading guilty.
