Do they have tapes of Cohen talking to this guy? Forecats: cat 5 tweetstorm.
And the dominos begin to fall…
Rubs hands together gleefully. This could be the camel’s nose under the tent that contains the financial info in the Trump companies. This guy knows more about Trump’s finances than Trump does, by a long shot.
And secondarily, if it reveals multiple campaign finance violations, ooohhh boy!
I bet this guy is covered in slime, too. Mueller is draining the swamp.
Uh-oh Spaghetti-Os! Why, it’s just exactly and precisely the kind of scrutiny Trump’s world would never survive! Some observer said a while back that when it’s all over we’ll be amazed Trump had the temerity to invite it in. When they start looking at all those condos and so forth that were paid for at above market value in cash and never occupied, all that fun stuff, oh me oh my, that’s going to be fun fun fun till her daddy takes the T-bird away.
I recall reading several months ago that if you really want to know all of Trump’s dirty secrets and understand the full breadth of the corruption of the Trump organization, Allen Weisselberg is who you want to talk to, much more so than Michal Cohen.
Popcorn futures going up again! I’m going to retire on the schadenfreude.
Can they force him to take use immunity? I’d hate to be him, because he has no idea what they already know, and he has to assume it’s a lot.
I am certain the gentleman is an exemplar of probity, and will answer all questions with completeness and veracity.
(It actually hurt to write that.)
I’m sure the so-called president will react to this news in a calm and dignified manner.
I’m waiting for the ‘I hardly knew him’ tweets.
You know that’s coming. You just know it. Along with the coffee/cofveve.
I loved Brian De Palma’s The Untouchables. Just never expected to live through it. Michael Cohen better turn down any invitations to a parlay at Trump Tower at this point or it’ll be his head bashed in with the baseball bat.
“Weisselberg is nothing but a CPA - coffee person associate - not even the main covfefe boy.”
And avoid being near a balcony with a loose railing … Just saying
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHA!!! Yep…pop goes the weasel…
This news and the emoluments ruling all within 24 hours - getting close to some very dangerous territory … and it’s only Thursday of Infrastructure Week.
> But, as the Journal reported, Weisselberg did set up a $35,000 monthly retainer to Cohen through the Trump Organization that was used to reimburse him for the $130,000 he gave to adult film star Stormy Daniels to keep her from publicly discussing her alleged liaison with Trump. A source told the newspaper that Weisselberg did not know about the payment to Daniels when he set up the retainer arrangement with Cohen.
Weisselberg:
“I did not know anything was going on, so I set up a $35,000 monthly retainer to cover it.”
Told you. Mr. Weisselberg better get GOOD counsel and remember that perjury is a felony. A life sentence for him only requires about 10-15 years of incarceration.
It’s a bitch to get old. It’s a bigger bitch to die in an orange jumpsuit.
Wait. I’m confused. Is it 4 cats or 5?
