Federal prosecutors in New York City will not bring additional charges as part of their investigation into payments orchestrated by former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen to pornographic actress Stormy Daniels prior to the 2016 presidential election, according to the Associated Press.
Cohen pleaded guilty last year to violating campaign finance law by arranging payments to porn actress Stormy Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, and Playboy centerfold Karen McDougal after they claimed they had affairs with President Trump. The president denies the allegations. In May, Cohen began a three-year stint in federal prison.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Manhattan revealed Thursday that its investigation into Cohen’s campaign finance violations included an inquiry into whether other people gave false statements or obstructed justice — a broader scope than the office had previously acknowledged.

Looks like they were wrong.
Again.
Probably because no crime was committed by Trump. Extortion is a crime but Trump was the victim of that.
When do we charge the prosecutors? I’m recommending life in prison in a CMU next to El Chapo.
They must be sad when even the corrupt NY courts won’t bite.
Trump was the victim of extortion and he had a bad lawyer handle it.
Trump was the victim in this
Cohen is a moron, thought he could flip and make millions of dollars and get a get out jail freecard, it didn’t happen. What a loser

The media, including Fox News within the last 15 minutes, have alleged that Trump violated campaign laws by arranging to pay these bimbos. This is nonsense and Dershowitz has pointed a number times that Trump and anyone else have an absolutely right to pay people to be silent about personal interactions. Celebrities and other wealthy people do this all the time. Usually it’s all lies, but it doesn’t matter, it is not a campaign violation.
We were told this months ago. (believe it was that long ago)
This is nothing new.
“They must be sad when even the corrupt NY courts won’t bite.”
They do work for Trump, being federal prosecutors. And Trump got rid of the real troublemaker there, Preet.
But this also bodes well for finally putting Epstein way for good, since it’s the same office prosecuting him.
