It has been a bad week for President Donald Trump. Two of his as the special counsel鈥檚 investigation into possible collusion between Trump鈥檚 campaign and Russia heats up. Prosecutors for the special counsel say Trump鈥檚 former campaign chairman Paul Manafort lied repeatedly to federal investigators and breached his plea agreement.
And on Thursday, the president鈥檚 former lawyer Michael Cohen pleaded guilty to making false statements to Congress about the investigation. Plus, Trump鈥檚 for the Eastern District of North Carolina is not likely to get approved. Republican Sen. Tim Scott announced yesterday that he was withdrawing his support, which effectively kills the nomination.
Host Frank Stasio talks to Political Junkie about the latest in politics, plus Trump鈥檚 one win from the week: Republican Cindy Hyde-Smith defeated Democratic challenger Mike Espy in a special runoff election in Mississippi for the U.S. Senate.
