Crime: Trump Pressures Whitaker in Cohen Case

About Dec 5, 2018 Trump Pressures Whitaker in Cohen caseTrump pressured his appointed acting AG Whitaker at least twice during December. This is at least against tradition and could be evidence of obstruction of justice.

Unverified: Lots of reporting, so likely true, but we still need to verify. Also, we need to understand better if this level of pressure rises to the level of a prosecutable obstruction of justice charge, is another supporting act in a charge, or is ignored because it is either not bad enough, or not needed.
