A Desperate Man : Michael Cohen

“Don’t be distracted by the gossip and tittle-tattle being spread about Michael Cohen. Forget taxi medallions and porn stars. They’re meant to distract. As REX explains, the true DOJ investigations are likely focussed on Cohen’s connections to illegal lobbying by Clinton proxies, on behalf of Ukraine.”

Yet there is something more unreliable than Cohen. And that is the despicable deep state political operation known as the Washington Post.

I believed he has already lost his license. Convicted of a felony is sufficient.

The surest way to end this is to lock the testimony in under oath.

But of course, that is exactly what Cohen has to avoid. He lied to the media, which has no consequences, but does not want to lie under oath, which has major consequences. Mueller's statement was a shot across Cohen's bow that he gets no cover for future perjury.

Someone has been watching too many TV shows.
It takes a Village Idiot to do this and only the Clintons could get away with it.

More like Mueller and his gang of criminals threatened Cohen, or the people Cohen screwed financially did.

Frankly, except for testimony into his own criminal activity, I don’t know how the courts even allowed an attorney to testify against his client? The only reasonable exception here imo would be if they conspired to commit crimes together, which it doesn’t seem to be the case. Everything else should be privileged and the courts should have stepped in to prevent testimony.

What kind of ‘threats’ are Trump’s attorney’s making? I imagine they include punitive action for breach of confidentiality.

Trump commented that LE might to look into the dealings of Cohen’s father in law. That’s a threat?
