Again, it’s not like he’s testifying about the clintoons.

____________

I don't really know.

But, more threats are heading toward the Covington School children than at thug-boy Cohen.

Why do I have a feeling this is yet another set-up to eventually punk the MSM and Hollywood crowd?

Too good to be true for fake News?

LOL. Cohen doesn’t want to answer questions about the recent Buzzfeed story on Mueller. Cohen is going to jail because he lied to Congress. I guess he doesn’t want to risk another charge of lying to Congress.

Remember the day Cohen walked into the Courthouse with his lovely daughter at his side, she using a crutch to walk? Maybe the threats had already begun.

(just kidding)
