Michael Cohen says he’s postponing testimony over threats by Trump

President Trump’s former fixer Michael Cohen will postpone testifying before a House panel next month because his family is being threatened by the president and his new attorney Rudy Giuliani, his lawyer said Wednesday.

“Due to ongoing threats against his family from President Trump and Mr. Giuliani, as recently as this weekend, as well as Mr. Cohen’s continued cooperation with ongoing investigations, by advice of counsel” Cohen will postpone his appearance, Lanny Davis said in a statement.

“This is a time where Mr. Cohen had to put his family and their safety first,” Davis added.

Cohen had a black eye the other day.

https://politicalwire.com/2019/01/18/cohen-returns-home-with-black-eye-and-injured-arm/

___________

“Michael Cohen returned to his Manhattan apartment Friday after getting medical treatment – with his arm appearing to be in a sling on a day President Trump and his team once again branded him a liar,” the Daily Mail reports.

“Cohen could be seen Friday with his left arm covered, hanging in a sling. He was holding a full-size white pillow while sporting a possible black eye. His right hand had a small bandage of the kind used to cover a small wound by an IV. He also wore a red identification bracelet of the kind distributed by hospitals.”

“Cohen advisor Lanny Davis said Cohen had gone into the hospital for pre-scheduled shoulder surgery.”

***************

A few weeks ago Cohen's daughter walked with him into Court using a crutch.

Same banana peel?

Big accusation. Proof? Evidence?

LOL. Along those lines ..... there was a pretty damn sad story about a sleeping girl who had her arms ripped off by her pet pit bull (I think it was one of them.)

Anyhow people were going back and forth debating the safety of the dogs....... one poster actually posting a series of lovely pictures of happy children with this type of dog. They were all so happy and safe.

Later in the thread a poster replied to the post with all the happy kids and their peaceful dogs. His words were:

"Are those the BEFORE pictures?"

LMAO

Thank you all, but I can't claim that! I saw it online a few years ago and it has stuck with me.

I am pretty funny, though. :)

I was going to compliment you, too, for coining a memorable phrase, but I’ll have to settle for complimenting you on being Conservative enough to set the record straight when you could have kept quiet like Warren, Blumenthal, Clinton, Clinton, etc., etc., etc. . . .

That would not be me. As great of a phrase as that is, I assure you I would have claimed it had I authored it! Thanks.

Mueller can’t be too happy seeing his key witness being a complete wackjob liar in public.

Isn’t Lanny Davis a friend of Sean Hannity? He might want to choose his friends a little more carefully.

Oh boohoo for the Rats, they keep clutching to “saviors” who will “this time” REALLY damage Trump: Porny Daniels, Kristine Ballsy Ford, Creepy Porn Lawyer, Buzzfeed liars, Lying sack of sh*t Cohen, etc.

Each and every time they shout with glee, a bomb goes off in their ugly leering faces. It’s priceless!!!

Sean just plays Lanny. They go waaaay back to the Clinton impeachment days. These days, Lanny is just a useful tool.

I don’t need to be Hannitized any longer so I no longer watch his show or foxnews for that matter. But doesn’t he introduce Lanny as his long-time friend when he’s on the show? I seem to recall them going out to dinner sometimes, hanging out. Am I right?
