The Stormy Daniels story stays in the headlines almost every day. Even today with the Iran deal being dicussed, Cohen's payments from a Russian Oligarch are breaking news/headlines.

Avenatti has beat Trump at his own game. It must be driving Trump mad that it's still a top news story.

This story won't die.

BINGO. Three clients, Cohen says he had, in court (or his lawyer did). Trump, Brodie, Hannity.

So, why $500,000 from a Putin padre oligarch? I'm sure Mueller has much more details.

Mueller seems to be in interested in this

Quote:
(CNN)Special counsel Robert Mueller's investigators have questioned a Russian oligarch about hundreds of thousands of dollars in payments his company's US affiliate made to President Donald Trump's personal attorney, Michael Cohen, after the election, according to a source familiar with the matter.

Viktor Vekselberg, chairman of asset manager Renova Group, is an oligarch close to Vladimir Putin, and last month the Trump administration placed him on a list of sanctioned Russians for activities including election interference. The purpose of the payments, which predate the sanctions, and the nature of the business relationship between Vekselberg and Cohen is unclear.
So Russian Oligarchs are handling the hookers and porn stars...this is a form of collusion I did not anticipate but then again nothing really surprises anymore

Default AT&T made payments to shell company Cohen created to pay Stormy Daniels

https://www.cnbc.com/amp/2018/05/08/...istration.html

You guys said Hillary was pay-for-play, but this looks like a direct a bribe. Incidentally, AT&T stopped using the company’s “services” right after net neutrality was repealed.

Ahh yes, amazing how a porn star is going to blow the lid on all kind of financial shenanigans by the president and his lawyer.

What ****ing amateur uses the same LLC and form letters complete with identical alias for multiple hush payments. Then used the same LLC to accept bribes from corporations.

Only the best

And yes---
Cohen's lied to his SDNY attorneys I imagine and not revealed all the nitty gritty
Although Avenatti apparently knew about this and one of the NYTimes reporters got pretty much an OK that the gist of the Russian money story was accurate

I haven't read the New Yorker story but I would think this might even make some GOP Congressmen and Senators upset to have this dirty laundry about Trump and Broidy conspiring to trade quid pro quo favors...
This is really nasty business....
And I don't care about Trump boffing anybody--
He could boff HRC--that's just sex
But trading favors to coverup illegal activity is a BIG NO NO!!!!

People go after Trump for doing the Playboy Magazine which I never understood because a lot of famous and prominent Men people have done Playboy including a couple other President. During the 1976 Election, Jimmy Carter did an interview for Playboy Magazine where he admitted to lusting for other women and that he had committed adultery in his heart on a few occasions. Carter caught a lot of slack and criticism for it at the time but was still elected. It was probably the first time A presidential candidate fidelity came in question during the campaign


Gerald Ford was a notorious flirt (usually harmless) and would flirt with women with his wife Betty in the same room. One time The White House had Singer Vikki Carr perform at State Dinner they were holding and Betty Ford spotted them standing in the corner giggling with each other pretty hard. This did not please her at all.

Later on, that evening, as President Ford was escorting Vikki Carr out of the White House and The First Lady overheard Vikki asking The President what his favorite Mexican Dish was? And The President responded with "You are!". The First Lady was furious and had Viki carr banned from coming back to the white house for the rest of their term.

Another time coming back from a trip to Finland where he took a strong liking to the woman there (at one point Betty caught him to staring at another woman there) an aide asked if he likes to go back and President Ford responded yes and that next time they should leave the Women at home and that only the Men should go. The First Lady was heard yelling "The h*ll you will!"
This has NOTHING TO DO WITH SEX---
The idea of Trump having sex with anyone is gross--but unless it is rape--who cares????
NOBODY!!!!
It has everything to do with HONESTY, TRANSPARENCY, ILLEGAL QUID PRO QUO ACTIVITY...
And the fact that most of this ILLEGAL activity happens with RUSSIANS!!!

Get ready for a Twitter storm...
