Well, I read the linked story.
And I don’t see either the conclusion, the headline, nor the logic of the story.
Did Cohen lie? Absolutely.
Did he lie (exaggerate) about the implications of his original lie? Obviously, else Trump’s use of what the story calls “codewords” is unimportant and meaningless.
But the “conclusion” that Trump told Cohen to lie is the Mass Media’s construction of lies based on Cohen’s lies to Mueller.
This thread isn’t about Cohen or Trump.
The lead article here is about the FBI giving their notes to the media.
Did you use the Conservative Treehouse link or the secondary link from post #1?
Bill clinton’s team coached Monica Lewinsky to lie under oath on Bill’s behalf to support his own perjury and she was bought off with a job from Ronald Perelman.
But we were told that Blowgate didn’t rise to the level of impeachment.
And this was not a lone occurrence in Bill Clinton’s scandals. Just ask Vernon Jordan.
In two instances recently, Perelman, who runs Revlon and a couple of dozen other companies, has offered employment to acquaintances of the president.
Twice in the last two months, Vernon E. Jordan Jr., a close friend of Clinton’s and longtime Revlon board member, telephoned Perelman directly to cadge a $40,000-a-year job for Monica Lewinsky, the former White House intern. One of those calls, sources say, came 24 hours after Lewinsky swore out an affidavit in which she denied having sex with the president. (Jordan’s wife, Ann, is a board member at another Perelman company.)
Lewinsky’s Revlon career didn’t last long. The day that word of the job offer became public, Revlon dropped her.
Clinton friend Webster Hubbell lasted a bit longer. In April 1994, Perelman’s parent company, MacAndrews & Forbes Holdings Inc., signed a $100,000 consulting contract with Hubbell, just weeks after he had been indicted and resigned from the Justice Department. When word of that “public relations” contract became known last summer, a spokesman for Perelman declined to say who arranged for Hubbell’s hiring or what Hubbell did for his money.
Perelman terminated Hubbell’s contract in December 1994, when the former associate attorney general pleaded guilty to making false statements in a federal probe. He served 18 months in prison.
