Is this where they try to smuggle in a giant magnet to wipe all the cassette recordings? Or was that from a different organized crime story? I can’t keep up.

Sure, and I want a pony.

They’re your records. Do you not know what’s in them?

It’s about fairness, when you have committed as many crimes as Michael Cohen, you need a refresher in order to properly defend yourself. It’s not fair to be charged about something that you don’t even remember doing.

“lawyers representing Michael Cohen”

Did I catch three separate names in that article?

ETA: looks like two, Tom Harrison and Stephen Ryan

Shouty David Schwartz is not mentioned.

Curious if the investigators (i.e. taint team) are currently going through the materials at the moment and will be all weekend?

I know these are file photos of Cohen, but he looks so stressed, almost to a breaking point.
if Trump had not been elected, he would be doing his thing in NYC as Trump’s fixer and all would be copacetic.
I’m predicting he’ll flip when they tell him what kind of prison time he’s facing.
As president Trump continues to ruin lives.

Fun fact about the judge in this case:

Of course he does. That’s why they’re objecting!

Short of suicidal tendencies, I would advise Cohen to stay out of single engine aircraft or to stray too near windows above the second story.

Bad maintenance and clumsiness seem to both claim a lot of victims lately, here and abroad.

KIMBA WOOD??? I haven’t heard about here in decades! LOVE this. A Democratic judge appointed by Reagan…so…Cohen wants to look at the records seized and THEN what? He’s going to nitpick every record and string it out until Donnie is no longer Prez? Meanwhile, Trump’s minions will be all over FOX screaming about how long Mueller is TAKING and Donnie will continue to pretend he can ‘FIRE!’ people for no cause because he’s PRESIDENT! DAMMIT and ‘Crooked Hillary’ isn’t?

Can I see my Christmas presents before you wrap them?

“…a taint team…”

That is all.

Yes. But if the suspects are poor, young and black, it is fair to execute them even if the evidence shows they’re not guilty.

That should put a chill down the back of Cohen and Trumparooni.

Cohen’s and Trump’s attorneys appear to be objecting to even a taint team being the first to conduct this review.”

What would be a good reason for the judge’s granting their request that didn’t imply the existing, elaborate protocol was deficient? There were so many layers of approval investigators had to secure at the outset just to conduct the raid.

“Trump attorney Joanna Hendon said she was seeking more time to review the case, having only been retained by Trump two days ago.”

I’ve just been shaking my head that they are in a position where they are throwing someone at this they just retained.
