George Conway, the husband of White House counselor Kellyanne Conway, suggested on Monday that President Trump obstructed justice and tampered with a witness when he praised Roger Stone for vowing never to testify against the president.
"File under '18 U.S.C. §§ 1503, 1512,'" George Conway tweeted, a reference to the statutes for obstruction of justice and tampering with witnesses, informants or victims, respectively.
George Conway, an attorney, was quoting a tweet in which the president lauded Stone for saying there's "no circumstance" in which he would testify against Trump because it would mean he'd "have to make things up."
"Nice to know that some people still have 'guts!'" Trump wrote.

....................George Conway regularly shares opinions critical of the president's policies and rhetoric, particularly regarding the special counsel's investigation.
Neal Katyal, who served as acting solicitor general during the Obama administration and has co-written opinion pieces with George Conway, on Monday concurred with his implication.
"This is genuinely looking like witness tampering," he tweeted. "DOJ (at least with a nonfake AG) prosecutes cases like these all the time. The fact it's done out in the open is no defense."
