Discussion: Reports: House Intel Committee To Call Trump Org CFO Allen Weisselberg To Testify

I suspect Weisselberg will look out for Weisselberg. That would not be good news for the Trumps.

Anyone else wonder about the presence of Weisselbergā€™s signature on the Stormy Danielsā€™ hush money reimbursement checks to Cohen he disclosed this week? Heā€™s CFO of a presumably large accounting operation. Donā€™t know about you, but Iā€™ve been in the position of signing checks in relatively small companies and itā€™s a pain in the butt and therefore at the senior level reserved for some combination of large dollar amounts, special accounts, or extraordinary expenses. Things that make you go hmmm.

Well, as we can all tell, things are heating up. tRump and his charming family are on their way out. Sometimes itā€™s so discouraging how long it seems to be taking, but the Dems are making things happen and we will see results. Hopefully Mr. Mueller will have a few more announcements.

Doubt it. Weisselberg controls the books. If heā€™s got any brains, he pays himself first.

And if Trump has any brains, he pays his own staff. His money is the only power he ever had, until he stole office.

I agree, and this is the problem for Trump. No one can provide a direct and cohesive explanation for all of the issues circling around Trump, other than the obvious one of cheating, lying and conspiracy with a foreign power (or two foreign powers since Saudi Arabia appears to be involved as well). We may never find that perfect piece of evidence that connects Trump directly to this whole mess, but no other scenario actually works. When we put the puzzle together, there is a large piece in the middle that remains unfilled, but its precise shape is that of Donald J. Trump.

ooh, ooh! Wouldnā€™t it be especially delicioso if in true mob accountant fashion he kept records for just this kind of jeopardy? AND stole a gazillion dollars over the years?

Even Jim Carrey dipped into this realm though it started out as a womanā€™s swimsuit.

Weisselberg was mentioned more times yesterday than ā€œno collusionā€ by Trump in a 2 minute sound biteā€¦ thatā€™s a lotā€¦so you would think he might show up in Congress for an 11 hour day at some point.

LOL. This should light a fire under Trumpā€™s sagging elderly balls. Weisselberg is going to fight itā€¦delay delay delayā€¦while the WH and Faux News coordinate to message against it happening and Trump maybe even files something attempting to get a court to block it. Under no circumstances should Weisselberg get or even be offered immunity.

I understand the much vaunted Trump Organization, whose HQ is the High Tower consists of Fatso himself, three spawn, an administrative assistant, the CFO and a COO name of Calamari.
