    Michael Cohen just addressed a tweet from his former boss, President Donald Trump.

    "Recently the President tweeted a statement calling me weak and it was correct but for a much different reason than he was implying. It was because time and time again I felt it was my duty to cover up his dirty deeds." Lanny Davis, an attorney for Cohen, says that after Mueller concludes the investigation, Cohen will "state publicly all he knows about Mr. Trump."

    And for anyone who wants to think that Trump is the only one about to get ****ed, I asked that you remember that Michael Cohen was also - at the time of his felonious behavior - the Deputy Finance Chair for the RNC.

    He really does have this knack for exacerbating the flaws and weaknesses of the people willing to work for him. But whenever I think of Michael Cohen, I am always going to remember that interview he did with Katy Turr (I think?) where she asked what they were doing in order to win the election since they were currently losing. And he responded with a, "Who says?"

    "The Polls"

    "Which ones?"

    "All of them"

    Was there an actual jury trial in this case, or was it just a sentence imposed upon Cohen by the Mueller gestapo squad, and his hand-picked judge? In the Edwards case, the jury ruled that such private payments are not a violation of campaign finance laws; which means that the Mueller gestapo squad forced Cohen into pleading guilty to something that wasn't even a crime.

    How long do we allow the Mueller gestapo squad to criminalize the politics of one side of the aisle, while turning a blind eye to the real criminality on the other side of the aisle?

    Our constitutional republic and the Mueller gestapo squad cannot both coexist. One has to be deposed, and it's not our constitutional republic.

    Wrong. Amazing how little you know about stuff you comment on.

    Geoffrey Berman, the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York, is recused from the Michael Cohen investigation, ABC News has learned.

    https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/us-...michael-cohen-investigation/story?id=54365546

    Mueller and his team (as well as the DOJ under Rosenstein) needed to get the AG recused and out of the way so they could go after Michael Cohen. Once they got him recused, they could raid his home/office and work him over.

    The tactics Mueller is using are straight out of the Nazi Party. He has a get Trump agenda but needed to find a crime to pin on him. Cohen was the perfect patsy.

    Nope the Trump Appointed attorney didn't charge anyone.


    Who Is Robert Khuzami? | Law & Crime
    https://lawandcrime.com/high-profile/3-things-about-robert-khuzami...
    (1) He wasn’t appointed by Trump, but he was appointed by Trump’s appointee, Berman. Berman made the announcement in January 2018 that Khuzami would return to Manhattan, where he served in the SDNY office from 1990 to 2002 as an Assistant U.S. Attorney.

    This came directly from Mueller to Rosenstein then down to the SDNY. The Special Council had to have Cohen and all of his records. It was a hit job.

    Here is another thread that Andy Jackson isn't it to complain about duplicate threads.

    Note the link I dropped and why the WSJ was mocking the SDNY.

    So a Trump appointee appointed a former US Assistant States Attorney who was in that Office and knew how the Office ran.

    Which has nothing to do with a Leftist and his bias against Trump. That falls on Khuzami and his inability to not comprehend Campaign Violation Laws. That the SDNY has no jurisdiction over. That the WSJ is outright openly mocking the SDNY.

    So still Nothing on Don.....other than the lefts TDS infection. :roflol:

    The President is 'clear' until hes charged, tried and found guilty of something.

    ...two years and counting.
