THE LEAD STORY – DEMS' PREPARE GET TRUMP STRATEGY: Before Democrats won back the House in the November midterms, several pundits warned that they would attempt to weigh down the remaining two years of President Trump's first term with constant investigations and attempts to perhaps impeach him. It looks like they were right: California Democratic Rep. Adam Schiff disclosed in an interview Sunday that Democrats are in talks with counsel for former Trump attorney Michael Cohen to "bring him back" for further testimony ... Cohen pleaded guilty to lying to Congress in 2017 about an abandoned Trump Tower project in Moscow less than two weeks ago. If Schiff becomes the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee when Democrats retake the House in January, as expected, he would have the power to subpoena Cohen to testify and provide documents. Schiff suggested Cohen will return voluntarily. However, Cohen would retain the option of pleading his Fifth Amendment right to avoid self-incrimination. - Reported by Gregg Re (@gregg_re on Twitter)
