Well, Somebody tell FLOTUS the money was paid to the sex workers.
But, as she's a former hooker, she may not care. Glad it was outsourced.

She doesn't.

Hmm?

btw:

How about a Mueller probe of US banking during the housing bubble and crash, too!?

Small time tax charges.

Targeted for political power. Now let's try the rest of the tax evaders in Congress and the Senate. To the same standards. Term limits. Im good with that.

Where did he implicate Trump ?

When he told the judge that he was directed to pay money to coverup his relationship with Stormy Daniels.

He said Trump ? Link?

No, he didn't say Trump. He said he was directed by a federal official, but there is no other government person involved in this. It is Trump and the fallout is going to be huge.

Maybe he did...from FOX I just want the truth

Michael Cohen, President Trump's longtime personal attorney, admitted Tuesday to violating federal campaign finance laws by paying $130,000 in hush money to adult film star Stormy Daniels in October 2016 "at the direction" of then-candidate Trump.

Michael Cohen admits violating campaign finance laws 'at direction of' Trump

You better go to Sheperd Smith to get that truth.

Not small time tax charges, and campaign finance charges directly tied to Trump.

It's in the SDNY.

SDNY is a federal district court.

So yes, he could be pardoned by the President. ....

Just announced. Michael Cohen implicated his client, Donald Trump, in a coverup of a crime which fits the designation of a high crime and misdemeanor which according to the Constitution, makes the President eligible for removal by impeachment.

BREAKING: Cohen pleaded guilty to five counts of tax evasion, one count of making a false statement to a bank and two campaign finance violations, according to court papers.

President Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen has surrendered to the FBI in New York as he prepares to plead guilty Tuesday afternoon in an investigation into his activities and business dealings, according to people familiar with the matter.

Cohen is expected to plead guilty to charges related to bank fraud, tax fraud and a campaign finance violation, according to two people with knowledge of the situation. Cohen agreed to the deal after prosecutors claimed he risked more than a dozen years in prison, one person said.

A hearing in the case is scheduled for 4 p.m. Tuesday at a federal courthouse in Manhattan. Afterward, Deputy U.S. Attorney Robert Khuzami, who has been overseeing the probe, is scheduled to make public remarks.

Indeed. Of course it is well known that he is a liar of the first order, so while the progressive left is all hot and bothered the rest of the country knows what a despicable scumbag he is. And no surprise, he is manufacturing evidence to try and save himself. the audio recording that was released says the exact opposite.

^ That's some desperation there , buddy. Yikes.

 

[Hutch Starskey]

Plead guilty. Do the time. And never mention Trump by name.

Never has to answer another question about it.

He fingered a candidate. It only had one candidate client.
That be the Great Lying Orange Douche!

OOPS!

You have to prove it was Trump and cant rel yon anything from Cohen.

There were 16 republican candidates.

Cohen was finance for RNC.

He's on tape discussing the payment with only one candidate, fool.

Oops.

It's in the SDNY.

SDNY is federal court.

So yes, he could be pardoned by the President. ....

Nope! Not for state crimes.

 

[AzogtheDefiler]

Are we seriously all playing lawyer together. STFU WTP.

 

[DigitalDrifter]

If it's true that Cohen paid off two women for Trump, then that's the end of Trump.

Can you say P-R-E-S-I-D-E-N-T P-E-N-C-E ?!!!

"Michael Cohen, President Donald Trump's former personal attorney, pleaded guilty in Manhattan federal court Tuesday"

Cohen knows all of Trumpy’s criminal activity.

If true, he is bound by attorney client privilege that can only be broken with consent from Trump. If it is broken otherwise it’s illegal and cannot be used in a court of law and any evidence obtained by it is tainted and likewise illegal

Knowledge of Illegal activity is not protected under attorney client privilege.

So if a client admits to a crime to his attorney the attorney is free to divulge that to the prosecution? I suggest you ACTUALLY learn the law before making ignorant comments about it.

 

[Sunni Man]

Nope! Not for state crimes.

You brought up the SDNY

Now you are backtracking.

Typical liberal lies.....

You want folks to STFU, because your having to stuff too many sour grapes down your throat today. Get over yourself. The law and the truth win, and the criminals and those who are complicit like you, lose.

 

[Synthaholic]

Twitter is not a reliable news source. This tweet sounds more like jumping the gun over today's earlier reporting that Cohen is in talks for a plea deal.

It’s reliable when the tweet is from a reporter covering this beat.

Reliable to whom? Have you fact-checked said reporter? Likely not. This is why I take Twitter with a grain of salt.

You don’t know this reporter, so nobody knows this reporter?

Law and Truth....you mean what you think law and truth are. Tell me again how you are smarter than Alan Dershowitz. You are false.
