You do realize that in less than five days no one is going to be talking about Cohen right?

A convicted Felon is the best that the Democratic Socialist can come up with after more than two years of investigation.

The only reason that this circus even happened today is so that the LSM wouldn't have to focus on 

the fact that President Trump is working on the Deal of the Century. 

Making a nuclear free Korea. Which is good for the whole world. But in this story lies something far more important to discuss.

You always bring up as one of your biggest issues with Trump the fact that he once said he sometimes wishes he 

could just reach out a grab women by the crotch. Something I tend to think of as nothing more than 

guy talk.

And while you may not like that opinion in the grand scheme of things thinking about grabbing a woman by the crotch is 

really not the worst one can be accused of. 

Yet you insist on using this as one of your biggest complaints against Trump and his supporters whom you say,

"give him a pass". 

And today you bring the Cohen issue up as something having roots enough to finally get rid of Trump. 

All the while EXCUSING the Democratic Socialist who are using Cohen for their own agenda. 

Thus you are in agreement with the Democratic Socialist in this case. 

And thus you are excusing the FACT that last week every single Democratic Socialist voted against 

a Resolution, that had no binding what so ever, which stated that a baby which survived an abortion

should be allowed to live. 

So you tell us how the heck you can, "give them a pass", for accepting infanticide and constantly complain to us 

about Trump wanting to grab a woman's Crotch.

And please don't attempt to say how much you don't agree with what the 54 Senate Democrats voted on.

You are now supporting them here.

And if you told me that you think killing a baby that has survived an abortion was just 

I FOR SURE WOULD NEVER SPEAK TO YOU AGAIN

The biggest bombshells from Michael Cohen's testimony before Congress

  David Knowles  Editor  Yahoo News•February 27, 2019

 

Yahoo News Video

 

Michael Cohen’s testimony Wednesday before the House Oversight Committee contained no shortage of explosive charges, many of which could spell trouble for Cohen’s former boss Donald Trump.

As Republicans on the committee repeatedly reminded Americans watching the proceedings, Cohen had already lied to Congress in 2017 when he testified about the duration of negotiations with Russian officials to build a Trump Tower in Moscow. The testimony by Cohen, who is scheduled to begin a three-year prison term in May on campaign finance charges in relation to hush money payments made on behalf of Trump, lying to Congress, and bank and tax fraud related to his personal business interests, nevertheless poses threats to the president, especially since Cohen backed up of some of his claims with physical evidence.

While not every revelation detailed by Cohen pointed to criminal activity by Trump, here are the biggest bombshell allegations from the hearing so far.

Ongoing investigations of Trump

In an exchange with Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi, D-Ill., Cohen said federal prosecutors are investigating the president over criminal allegations not yet made public.

“Is there any other wrongdoing or illegal act that you’re aware of regarding Donald Trump that we haven’t yet discussed today?” Krishnamoorthi asked

“Yes,” Cohen responded, “and those are part of the investigations that is currently being looked at by the Southern District of New York.”

Why it matters: Trump is hoping that after special counsel Robert Mueller wraps his investigation into the Trump campaign’s ties to Russia during the 2016 presidential election, he will be out of legal jeopardy. Cohen’s cooperation with investigations not yet disclosed indicates this may not be the case.

Trump Tower Moscow testimony

While Cohen has admitted lying to Congress about the scope of Trump’s effort to build a skyscraper in Moscow leading up to and during the 2016 presidential campaign, he said Wednesday that he had help in doing so. Cohen said Jay Sekulow was among those on Trump’s legal team who made changes to Cohen’s statement to Congress to make it seem as though the negotiations did not extend as long as they did.

“There were changes made, additions, Jay Sekulow, for one—”

Were there changes about the timing?

“There were several changes that were made, including how we were going to handle that message. The message of course being the length of time that Trump Tower Moscow project stayed and remained alive,” Cohen acknowledged.

 

 

Cohen also testified that Trump had personally spoken to him about his first 2017 appearance before Congress.

“He wanted me to cooperate. He also wanted to ensure, by making the statement, as I said it in my testimony, there is no Russia, there is no collusion, there is no — there is no deal,” Cohen said.

Cohen specified that Trump did not directly instruct him to lie, noting, “That’s not how he operates,” but that Trump made his wishes clear indirectly.

Why it matters: Cohen faces jail time after pleading guilty to lying to Congress. Anyone who helped craft his lies is also in potential legal jeopardy.

Hush money reimbursements from Trump

In his opening statement and throughout his testimony, Cohen made clear that hush money payments made to porn actress Stormy Daniels and Playboy model Karen McDougal came at the direction of Trump himself.

“Mr. Trump directed me to use my own personal funds from a home equity line of credit to avoid any money being traced back to him that could negatively impact his campaign,” Cohen testified, adding, “I am providing a copy of a $35,000 check that President Trump personally signed from his personal bank account on Aug. 1, 2017 — when he was president of the United States — pursuant to the cover-up, which was the basis of my guilty plea, to reimburse me — the word used by Mr. Trump’s TV lawyer — for the illegal hush money I paid on his behalf. This $35,000 check was one of 11 check installments that was paid throughout the year — while he was president.”

Furthermore, Cohen testified that a year after being elected president Trump told Cohen to mislead the public about his knowledge of the payments.

 

Why it matters: Cohen is going to jail over the payments to Daniels and McDougal. If Trump told him to make those payments, he’s guilty, too.

 

Trump told him to lie to Melania about hush money

Cohen testified that he was especially disturbed that the president told him to lie about Trump’s alleged affairs with Daniels and McDougal.

“He asked me to pay off an adult film star with whom he had an affair, and to lie to his wife about it, which I did,” Cohen said, adding, “Lying to the first lady is one of my biggest regrets. She is a kind, good person. I respect her greatly, and she did not deserve that.”

During questioning, Cohen was asked repeatedly about the lies he had told about his work for the president, and he again brought up the first lady.

“Not only did I lie to the American people, I lied to the first lady. When the president called me I was sitting in a car with a friend of mine, and he had me speak to her and explain to the first lady,” Cohen testified.

Why it matters: Rudy Giuliani, Trump’s current lawyer, said in December that Trump’s hush money payments didn’t violate campaign finance laws if there was “a strong personal component to a payment — like protecting your wife, children and family from scandal.” That line of thinking would not explain why Trump asked Cohen to lie to his wife about the alleged affairs.

Trump may have known about his son’s meeting with Russians

For years, President Trump has insisted that he knew nothing of his son Don Jr.’s June 9, 2016, meeting with a Kremlin-connected Russian lawyer in order to obtain damaging information on Hillarious Clinton.

In his prepared statement, Cohen implied that Trump had advance knowledge of the meeting, and approved of it.

“I remember being in the room with Mr. Trump, probably in early June 2016, when something peculiar happened. Don Jr. came into the room and walked behind his father’s desk — which itself was unusual,” Cohen said in his statement. “People don’t just walk behind Mr. Trump’s desk to talk to him. I recalled Don Jr. leaning over to his father and speaking in a low voice, which I could clearly hear, and saying: ‘The meeting is all set.’ I remember Mr. Trump saying, ‘OK, good ... let me know.”

Why it matters: Meeting with a foreign national to solicit help in a U.S. election is a violation of U.S. law.

Penthouse for Putin

Former mobster and real estate developer Felix Sater spoke with Cohen about securing a $50 million penthouse apartment in the proposed Trump Tower Moscow skyscraper for Russian President Vladimir Putin, Cohen testified during an exchange with Rep. Jackie Speier, D-Calif.

“So Felix Sater had suggested to you that Mr. Trump offer a penthouse to Mr. Putin?” Speier asked.

“Yes, because it would certainly drive up the price per square foot, no different than in any condo where they start listing celebrities that live in that property,” Cohen responded.

Why it matters: Offering Putin a penthouse could violate the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which makes it a crime to bribe foreign officials.

Trump and Roger Stone discussed WikiLeaks release of DNC emails

Cohen recounted a phone meeting between Trump and Roger Stone during which the latter announced over speakerphone that he “just got off the phone with Julian Assange, and in a couple of days there’s going to be a massive dump of emails that’s going to significantly hurt the Clinton campaign.”

Those emails are believed to have been stolen by Russian hackers and leaked via WikiLeaks a few days after the call between Trump and Stone.

WikiLeaks denied Wednesday that Assange had ever talked with Stone.

Why it matters: Stone has been indicted on charges brought by Mueller that allege he sought stolen DNC emails from WikiLeaks so as to boost Trump’s presidential campaign.

Watergate ‘Master Manipulator’ Spots What Republicans Didn’t Do During Michael Cohen Hearing

Ed Mazza  •February 28, 2019

• 
•  

John Dean, the former attorney for President Richard M. Nixon who was dubbed the “master manipulator” of the Watergate scandal by the FBI, noticed one thing Republican lawmakers didn’t do on Wednesday.

As they questioned Michael Cohen, the disgraced former attorney for President Donald Trump, “they didn’t defend the president,” Dean told CNN’s Don Lemon. 

“What they did is attack the witness,” Dean said. “That shows a certain weakness and it also showed a lot of concern by Republicans.”

Republicans questioning Cohen “had nothing to offer in defense of the president’s character,” Dean said.

Former Nixon White House Counsel John Dean tells CNN's @DonLemon that during Michael Cohen's testimony the Republican members of the House Oversight Committee "didn't defend the President. What they did is attack the witness. That shows a certain weakness" https://cnn.it/2XtSws7 

Like Cohen, Dean was a member of the president’s inner circle. He also turned on his onetime boss and cooperated with prosecutors. 

Last year, he noted another similarity between himself and Cohen.

“When I became a witness, there was a huge effort to discredit me,” Dean said at the time. “It was just my word against Nixon’s until the tape came out, and they worked mightily to try to discredit me.”

So what did we learn from Cohen Testimony? No COLLUSION! No OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE!

 

Here are some of the questions by the Democrats in the Cohen Hearings:

 

1) Can Trump be blackmailed because of business ventures?

2) Does Trump have a "love child"? 

3) Has Trump abused and used any controlled substances?

4) Has Trump arranged any healthcare procedures for any women not in his family?

 

I have to admit that #4 kind of surprised me...this should gain Trump points as the Democrat Party is now pro-Infanticide (killing babies).

Michael Cohen calls Trump a 'cheat,' reveals net worth numbers for Buffalo Bills bid

Jay Busbee  Yahoo Sports•February 27, 2019

 

 

President Donald Trump. (Getty)

In 2014, then-real estate developer and reality TV show star Donald Trump attempted to buy the Buffalo Bills. His bid fell short.

In 2016, Trump, not burdened with the task of owning an NFL team, attempted a run at the presidency. That bid succeeded beyond all but the wildest expectations.

In 2019, now-President Trump is facing a withering condemnation from his former personal attorney, and, strangely enough, the Buffalo Bills have resurfaced as a small but key component.

Michael Cohen, the president’s former personal attorney, began testifying before a House committee on Wednesday morning. (Follow Yahoo News’ coverage of Cohen’s testimony here.) Cohen’s prepared opening testimony was received by numerous media organizations, and in that testimony, he used the attempted Buffalo Bills purchase to brand Trump “a cheat.”

“I’m giving the Committee today three years of President Trump’s financial statements, from 2011-2013,” Cohen indicated in his statement, “which he gave to Deutsche Bank to inquire about a loan to buy the Buffalo Bills and to Forbes.”

According to Cohen, Trump manipulated financial records depending on a desired outcome, whether to appear wealthy or not so wealthy. The Bills are but a tiny piece of the overall picture of Trump’s finances, but Cohen is clearly seeking to use that failed purchase as representative of Trump’s business dealings and techniques.

"It was my experience that Mr. Trump inflated his total assets when it served his purposes, such as trying to be listed among the wealthiest people in Forbes,” Cohen said in his prepared testimony, “and deflated his assets to reduce his real estate taxes.”

The specific financial statements relating to the failed Bills purchase were not included in Cohen’s prepared testimony before the House Oversight and Reform Committee. They were released during his testimony, and indicated that Trump’s professed net worth took a substantial jump during the time he was applying to Deutsche Bank for a loan to help with the purchase price. Trump’s stated net worth was as follows:

2011: $4,261,590,000

2012: $4,558,680,000

2013: $8,661,970,000

The additional $4 billion in net worth from 2012 to 2013 was attributed to “brand value.”

Trump had attempted to buy the Bills in 2014, a move that few NFL owners took seriously. “He was, for starters, not considered sufficiently solvent or transparent to proffer a serious bid,” Mark Leibovich wrote in his 2018 NFL expose “Big Game.” “Football owners, as it turns out, get a much closer look at a candidate’s finances than electorates do.”

Cohen, in fact, was involved with the bid, telling the Buffalo News in 2014: "The Bills have a rich history in Western New York, and Mr. Trump's interest is to preserve that.” Cohen argued at the time that Trump’s casino holdings should not prevent him from owning a team; NFL owners had long sought to keep gambling at arm’s length from the league.

Cohen also served as a cheerleader for Trump’s finances at the time, noting, "Mr. Trump's wealth is far greater than what has been reported."

When Trump didn’t win the bid — Terry and Kim Pegula did, at a cost of $1.4 billion — he seethed and took to Twitter:

Even though I refused to pay a ridiculous price for the Buffalo Bills, I would have produced a winner. Now that won’t happen.

He was already discredited by his own actions. He was a scumbag lawyer that did what he did unethically speaking because he COULD do it. He has twice been convicted for lying to Congress because he felt he COULD do it and get away with it . Likely because of his testimony yesterday he will be convicted a 3rd time for lying to Congress for when he testified he never wanted to be part of the Whitehouse Staff. Likely Congressman E Cummings and others will be investigated and convicted for witness tampering when they prepped Cohen prior to his testimony yesterday, today, and tomorrow. Going so far as doing a Donna Brazille and giving him the questions that were going to be asked of him. Witness tampering is a crime, thereby witness prep is a CRIME and a ethics violation, as they were wanting to steer his "testimony" to fit their narrative regardless if their narrative was created or not. A CRIME. A CRIME. A CRIME.
