Newly revealed search warrant applications from the federal investigation of Michael Cohen contain a range of bizarre, surprising moments, as Trumpworld scrambled to cover up an affair that then-candidate Donald Trump had with a porn star.
Perhaps I missed it… but doesn’t this revelation seem to be counter to the New York attorney shutting down their inquiry?
It depends on your definition of "obstruction.’’
Aand…net result:
‘Mickey’ Cohen gets ‘tagged’ and co-conspirators…get off.
Well, for the time being. If Twitterlaw is to be believed, the statute of limitations on the potential conspiracy charge expires (or whatever is the precise term of art) in 2021.
Once again, I think we are seeing further investigation and criminal actions being Barred.
Hope Hicks should be very concerned about those upcoming perjury charges for lying to Congress…
Seems like the biggest takeaway is that Hope Hicks demonstrably lied to Congress repeatedly. Any chance she sees any consequences for those lies?
Apparently the House is looking into it, WaPo mentioned that earlier.
I apologize for not recalling specifics.
Can you give us a couple of samples?
I fully believe it happened, but because I did not read her testimony and much about it, or even these doc’s, I’m looking for a little help here.
That she should.
And I’m fine with Barr refusing to bring charges, just adds more spice to the mix.
These people really can’t run forever, it just seems that way.
I have her lying to investigators, (FBI?) about how she discussed the the affair before November as she had stated.
Remember when Obama had his fixer suppress all the evidence and payoff his tailor with some hush money after the tan suit scandal broke? Yea those were the days.
As noted on Twitter, this is ambiguous as to whether it actually relates to Stormy Daniels. The timing is the same as “Katie Johnson” and her forcible rape allegations disappearing, and there were exactly 6 stories about that before it vanished. Stormy may have been a cover story for getting rid of “Katie Johnson.”
I still cannot get my head around the Access Hollywood tape NOT being fatal to his campaign. And it turns out neither would have the Stormy Daniels revelations because here we are with the fact of the affair and the cover-up and they have produced not the slightest deterioration in his base. Jesus H. Christ! What have we become?
“Keep Praying!! It’s working”
I think my mother’s response would be,
“Oh for the love of God!!”
Color me in shades of Jade.
What organisation is going to file them?
Since she just testified a couple weeks ago, the clock has barely started ticking on the 5-year statute of limitations…
