251-260:

251: Christie tells Trump he's friendly with Comey, Trumpie asks Christie to tell Comey he's liked and part of the team. Christie thinks request nonsensical, feels uncomfortable about it, doesn't want to put Comey in position of having recieved message.

Footnote: Christie also recalls Flynn called Kushner to complain about what Spicer said about him at press conference, Kushner promised Trump would tweet support for Flynn.

252: Trump meets with Comey alone to talk about Flynn, says Flynn a good guy, needed to be fired because lied to Pence, hopes Comey can let the issue go. Comey drafts memorandum, asks Sessions not to leave Comey alone with Trump again.

253: Media asks why Trump took two weeks to fire Flynn and whether Trump knew Flynn talked to Kislyak.

Trump asks McFarland to write that Trump never told Flynn to talk to Kislyak. McFarland says she doesn't feel comfortable writing that and asks Eisenberg. Eisenberg says it would be awkward and might make her ambassador post might look like a quid pro quo.

Trump asks Priebus to tell Flynn he likes him. Priebus thinks Trump doesn't want Flynn to say mean things.

Trump tweets witch hunt, asks McFarlane to tell Flynn to stay strong.

256: Analysis: obstructive act: asks Comey to let this go; nexus to proceeding: (n.b. WH council had advised earlier that prosecution was unlikely) redacted Grand Jury said Flynn broke law lying to FBI; intent: maybe Trump knew about Flynn talking to Kislyak. However, Mueller unable to prove Trump knew, or that Flynn had dirt on Trump, so forced to not charge.

260: Trump didn't want Sessions to recuse, Comey announced FBI investigation, Trump asked Comey and others to say Trump had nothing to do with Russia.

Eisenberg gives astonishingly bad advice

261-270:

Comey didn't think Trump was asking him how Flynn investigation was going.

Trump asks McGahn to ask Sessions to not recuse.

Comey briefs Gang of 8, scheduled to testify before HPermSelComInt. Dana Boente, Acting AG for .ru investigation, authorizes Comey to confirm existence of investigation. Media claims FBI investigating Trump. White House Counsel Office considers whether Trump needs cause to fire Comey (not directed by Trump. WHCounO seems to be trying to harm Trump in any way possible).

Trump asks McGahn to ask Boente to get Comey or someone to correct media reports that Trump is under investigation. Boente tells McGahn Comey unsustainable for four years as FBI Dir, McGahn passes on the Trump.

President asks DNI Coats and CIA Dir Pompeo if they can say Trump has no links to .ru. Coats says ODNI has nothing to do with investigation.

Trump frustrated. Asks Comey to lift cloud, Comey says (contra testimony to Congress lol) that congressional leaders know Trump not under investigation. Trump says Comey should get that fact out. Comey says he should tell WHCounselO to ask DoJ leadership to clarify to media.

271-280:

272: analysis: obstuctive act: reaching out to discuss investigation with other intelligence agencies (srsly?). Nexus to proceeding: literally whaargarbl. Intent: nothing, but, Trump did want Sessions to not recuse, "may be relevant to understanding Trump motivations" (tf is that doing there?)

Evidence shows Trump concerned about investigation effect on Presidency (brilliant sherlock).

274: Comey testify to Congress 3 May 17, Trump tells advisors he wants Comey to say Trump not under investigation. Comey declines to describe scope or subjects of investigation (probably to give media latitude to make stuff up). Trump fires Comey.

>>6230963 (251-260)

Whether let it go is obstruction

>>6231270 (261-270)

Trump asks Sessions not to recuse, Comey to lift cloud

271-280: whether talking to other agencies is obstruction, Comey gets fired.

Should I continue? This was boring while it was happening.

351-360: Cohen's lies

Cohen tells NYT rep Trump Tower Moscow was infeasible and ended in Jan 2016, Cohen says that was a talking point to dismiss Trump-Russia connection. Cohen says Trump knew it was false but Cohen thought it important to say Jan when talks continued until June because it would limit period in which Trump had relationship with Russia while candidate.

Cohen requested to talk to Congress about Russia, thought interest focused on Steele report Cohen met Russians in Prague. Cohen never went to Prague. Cohen met Trump to discuss request, Trump told Cohen to cooperate.

Cohen enters Joint Defense Agreement with Trump and others (dunno what that is).

Cohen lied to Congress about TT Moscow project.

Jan 2018 media reported Cohen paid Stormy. "This Office did not investigate Cohen's campaign-period payments to women". Cohen said Trump not knowledgable, NYT called Cohen Trump's "fixer", FBI raids Cohen, Trump calls raid disgrace.

Trump calls Cohen, says stay strong. Cohen recalled that [redacted for privacy] told him Trump loves him and also two more redacted for privacy. Cohen talks to Costello who has relationship with Giuliani.

Trump tweets that Cohen won't flip.

Costello tells Cohen Giuliani said Cohen is loved, source is email from Costello to Cohen, footnote saying that is partly redacted "harm to ongoing matter".

360: Trump tells reporter too early to consider pardons for Cohen, Manafort, they haven't been convicted.

July 2, Cohen signals willingness to cooperate with investigation. July 20, media reports existence of recording Cohen had of conversation with Trump about payment to other woman. July 27, media says Cohen willing to inform investigators about DTJr telling Trump about 9 Jun 2016 meeting to get dirt on Hillary.
