I was looking forward to this, and it's everything I'd hoped it would be.

(9,304 posts)The man, a retired public relations professional in the western United States who asked not to be identified, read ProPublicas story this week on Kasowitz and sent the lawyer an email with the subject line: Resign Now.
Kasowitz replied with series of angry messages sent between 9:30 p.m. and 10 p.m. Eastern time. One read: Im on you now. You are fucking with me now Lets see who you are Watch your back , bitch.
In another email, Kasowitz wrote: Call me. Dont be afraid, you piece of shit. Stand up. If you dont call, youre just afraid. And later: I already know where you live, Im on you. You might as well call me. You will see me. I promise. Bro.
Kasowitzs spokesman, Michael Sitrick, said Thursday he couldnt immediately reach Kasowitz for comment.

(17,984 posts)Now here is a thought. Attorneys are turning down offers to defend tRump. What if Kasowitz cannot get clearance, but tRump can't find another lawyer who can get clearance? It's a long shot, but here's hoping.
