I'll repost the Cohn portion of my prior FOIA posts below. When I posted that, I was guessing that it was an example of a "file" that the FBI created on people for later use. I noted that it basically said to continue building the file but not to act on it until later.

It seems like Cohn may have been a thorn in their sides based on the first page(s) of the file (linked below) in which he was hated by the socialists. Then all following pages seemed to be used to create a "narrative" that he was a bad guy.

SEP 29, 2019 | 6:58 PM there is an article detailing what looks like a "rollout" of the Cohn file - basically saying he was a low down no good dirty sidewinder (just my paraphrase) and he was Trump's mentor. See where this might be goin'? 

 


Article Title: 

Blame lawyer Roy Cohn for Donald Trump’s nasty political tactics, documentary says

NEW YORK DAILY NEWS |

https://www.nydailynews.com/entertainment/ny-roy-cohn-documentary-trump-mentor-20190929-rbqusltwirbrtlwnozs6ng4g5q-story.html

Note that they use Cohn's conviction of the Rosenberg as "proof" that he was malevolent. The documentary the article describes was written by the Rosenberger's daughter and the article cites Dershowitz with approval. Here's the first few paragraphs of the article:

"Never admit mistakes. Always attack your accuser. Win no matter what. Gloat when you do.

Roy Cohn is considered one of the most malevolent forces in 20th century America. He helped convict and execute accused Soviet spies Ethel and Julius Rosenberg. They were prosecuted by Cohn and executed for treason in 1953.

He was a driving force behind Joseph McCarthy’s anti-Communist and anti-homosexual witch hunts. He represented Mob bosses. He broke the law repeatedly and was finally disbarred. He took public stances against gay rights bills but was in the closet himself and died of AIDS after public denials."


Excerpt from my previous FOIA post on Cohn:
Given the way the wiki is written, and this FOIA file, I suspect this is the kind of blackmail file the swamp maintains for later use. The document must be downloaded from the FBI FOIA Vault. I will put a capture of the first page which, to me, seems to indicate, "Build a fake file on this guy, but don't do anything with it until we give you the signal." In the past week, the MSM has been touting this release as sleezy information on Trumps' prior attorney/mentor. Yet another way the FBI can use it's smear files?

The Rosenbergs were both confirimed as spies who ran a large network of spies. Venona papers released after the fall of the Soviet Union confirmed them and many others including Harold Ickes Sr. (FDR advisor).
Cohn did the right thing in convicting the Rosenbergs.
