FULL TITLE: Trump Paid Stormy Himself. Congress Paid Its Victims $17 Million out of Treasury. Who’re the Real Criminals?
The one person who seemed to sum up the Democrats’ reaction to Michael Cohen’s guilty plea — and subsequent allegations against President Donald Trump — was Rep. Jerry Nadler.
There’s long been speculation that the New York Democrat is considering impeachment hearings against Trump and anyone around him regardless of what the evidence might entail. A report from the day after the midterms had the powerful ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee ranting on a train about impeaching Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh. He also talked about going “all in” on Russia.
Well, Russia might not work out, but how about Cohen? On TV this weekend, Nadler talked in grave terms about Cohen’s claim that Trump directed him to pay Stormy Daniels as part of a non-disclosure agreement and paid him back. This would, according to Nadler, be a sufficient reason to remove Trump from office.
“They would be impeachable offenses. Whether they’re important enough to justify an impeachment is a different question,” Nadler said in an appearance on CNN.
“Certainly, they’re impeachable offenses, because, even though they were committed before the president became president, they were committed in the service of fraudulently obtaining the office.”

>>>April 5: Trump says he did not know about the payment
Speaking to reporters on Air Force One, Trump said curtly that he did not know about the payment, referring questions to Cohen.
How can it be extortion if the President didn’t know about the payments?
On March 7, speaking at the daily press briefing, White House spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders said that Trump did not know about any payments to Stormy Daniels.
On April 5, the President said that he did not know about the payment and referred questions to Cohen.
Finally someone has written this. If we had a fair and non-biased media, Schiff, Nadler, Schumer, Waters Pelosi etc would be hounded about why what Trump did is a crime but what the Congress did, with taxpayer money, is not.
President Trump has Direct Control of the Treasury dept and can release ALL PAYMENT RECORDS for the Congressional Rape and Run slush fund.
Mention the Shush Fund today to a couple Libs I ran into at work.
Jaws dropped and all were angry the media hadn’t told them about it. Spread the word people!!!

Who’re the Real Criminals?
Every one of those payments should be public record. Let the chips fall where they may, though I suspect the biggest effect will be on the left.
