If they billed it as a legal retainer, ten to one they claimed it as a business expense. In case someone wanted to add tax evasion to the list of future charges.
But, my taxes.
Pecker, a close friend of Trump’s, used his rag to do a hitjob on Trump’s opponents in the primary as well as the general election. I hope his impending indictment makes the front page of the National Enquirer as well as other nonsalacious newspapers.
“Allen Weisselberg” - remember that name. If Weisselberg is legally compromised and, subsequently turns, Trump’s ass is grass.
“U.S. Attorney Robert Khuzami released a statement saying that “his day of reckoning serves as a reminder that we are a nation of laws, with one set of rules that applies equally to everyone.”
Yes, reminders are good. Prosecution is better.
What a tangled web. If Trump had paid the money directly instead of ordering his lackeys to pay it for him through a series of obfuscations, it might not have been a crime. And the public still wouldn’t have cared at the right time.
Prosecutors identified them as “Chairman-1,” “Corporation-1,” and “Magazine-1,” respectively. Trump himself is identified as “Individual-1.”
Anybody figured out “Slovenian-Handler-1”, “House-Speaker-1”, and “Gun-Lobbyist-Group-1”?
There’s much, much more here. Start with Broidy. Go after him w/Cohen’s cooperation and that leads to a whole wasps nest containing Tom Barrack, George Nader, and the House of Saud.
What I’d like to see is Trump gradually promoted from “Individual-1” to "Unindicted Co-conspirator-1 and eventually to “Defendant”. I’m willing to let nature take its course.
The wheels of justice grind slowly, but they grind exceeding fine.
They’re going to need a multitude of numbers for the “Treasonous American” category.
Dotard: "Pecker?! I just met her!
“grossed up” the total Cohen would receive to $360,000 “for tax purposes,”
Giuliani will inform the general public that this is standard practice. My clients always grossed up my bills so my hourly rate would be net after tax and the better ones always “added a bonus."
Lots of corrupt people in America, only one is president right now. So I’d settle for pulling the thread that is the criminal enterprise known as the Trump Organization.
How many hundreds of transactions do they have on their books that resemble: we are paying Cohen back for fronting the hush money last year , but we are gonna call it a legal retainer this year and deduct it from our taxes as a business expense…
The thread I described is the biggest one I know of that’s firmly attached to Spanky himself. Get Barrack talking and it’s game over.
And btw, plea-deal-Broidy is bff with Nunes…
I can almost GUARANTEE you that the funds were paid out of the Trump Foundation.
The only people on the Trump Foundation were Cheeto Mussolini and his spawn, Uday, Qusay, and The White Witch.
Only Cheeto Mussolini could authorize any payments made out of the Trump Foundation, which he used as a personal piggy-bank for years.
This is TAX FRAUD because I am sure they claimed the $460,000 as a “Charitable Donation” to one of Cohen’s LLCs.
I’m still trying to figure out “Russian-Oligarch-1” through “Russian-Oligarch-200.”
FIFY!
