All night I was sleepless with bated breath waiting for
CNN to get Cohen’s perspective. I just knew they would come through.

What people “deserve” from Mueller is for him to lock himself in a room with a recorder, a pad of paper, some pens, a bottle of liquor, a pistol, and one bullet.

“Cohen, who watched the testimony with other inmates”

Isn’t there a bunch of roadside trash that needs picking up?

I’m sorry. That’s not part of his purview.

Let’s hope he spends every day of his sentence behind bars... Who knows... Maybe they can drum up some more charges and keep him there even longer.

Can you imagine what those other inmates must have been saying to Cohen while they were watching Mueller’s testimony?

“You kidding me, man? THAT senile old fool put you here? What kinda loser are you?”

Keep digging Mike. Any outside chance of a sympathy pardon for old times sake is vanishing.
