How so? How can he not be?

If he paid off a porn star for Trump, without Trump's knowledge, that would be malpractice. If he took the money out of his own funds to pay a woman for Trump, without Trump's knowledge, that is cause for disbarment. If he took a loan from a bank under false pretenses, that is cause for disbarment. If he kept a Trump slush fund to pay off women, I cannot imagine what financial and legal ethics rules are being violated. If he's bribed officials in NYC to assist Trump's business, that is illegal.

Who knows what is in those files that is not protected by atty/client privilege? I've seen firms audited by the SEC and bank auditors and even the FBI (based on a lone accusation). This is one of the cleanest firms I've ever seen--they are 'by the book' all the way. And still, the auditors could pick out a few things that required hours of research to respond.

I can only imagine what a NYC atty who works for a developer/promiscuous philanderer might have done. These guys pretty much have not cared about the law, have skirted it as much as possible and played it fast and loose. Also sloppy--I cannot imagine that Cohen, who has created this disaster with his own stupidity, hasn't committed crimes he could be prosecuted for and/or disbarred.

And of course if Trump was aware of any of this, well.....the possibilities are endless.

Seriously, this is nutty to a new level. An absolute joke.
“It’s a disgraceful situation,” he said at the start of a military leadership meeting.

“I have this witch hunt constantly going on,” he continued.



His repertoire is beyond monotonous already.

Meanwhile on Tucker Carlson: Sex crazed Gorrilas can be violent and having sex 40 times a day.

He couldn't even cut to Hannity without bursting out in laughter that he somehow avoided covering major breaking news for a whole episode (I did miss around 10 minutes).

April 9th - Stormy Daniels and Michael Avenatti day?

If he was unaware, he is ever more of an idiot than he appears (might have a vocab of 150 words instead of the 250 I think I have heard)....

But the people of the USA would never elect an Idiot to control nuclear weapons and stuff....so this must be a dream. Back to my poppies....

Supposedly there are 6 or so other women who were maybe paid off in same way right before the election according to Avanotti...

Taken all together that could be close to million in hush money
Could Cohen refi his house for that much money???
If he paid them off--money had to come from somewhere
His condo in Trump Tower is worth multi-millions. Most likely yes.

Exactly!!!

Cohen knows where the bodies are buried. Let’s see if he’s willing to sacrifice it all to save Trump by keeping his mouth shut!

Millionaire lawyers don’t like prison life. Trump had better hope that Cohen is a soldier. But I gotta say, Cohen doesn’t look like G. Gordon Liddy to me!!

He needs a new set of rounds for his 6 shooter of superlatives.

I get that they won't come out and say "Ok, you got us, we did XXXXXXXXX", but it's the same schtick over, and over, and over...wash rinse repeat.

A Trump appointed person signed off on this. You don't get these levels of warrants with no evidence for something. You don't get no knock raids if they don't have evidence of something. He thinks people are idiots and if I were a Trump supporter, I'd be mad, not playing the whataboutism games and talking about Hillary.

This is all a big show and has become a power struggle between the POTUS and the deep state and it's all out in open now. If they can start pulling crap like this and get away with it even if there is nothing there and Trump fights then off what's next? Do they go JFK on him? Cause I think if this crap isn't toned down we are heading in that direction. They can't control Trump, they know it and the options for getting him inline to the deep states liking are dwindling fast.

Hopefully, Trump hangs all these corrupt bastards by their toes on Pennsylvania ave so the public can stone them as they walk by. This is what our tax dollars are paying for. If anyone here is ok with the FBI seizing privileged communications between a lawyer and their client you may as well become a communist.
Lol, sounds like something people might do in Iraq or Syria.

Would the KGB raid Putin's lawyer's office? And are you talking about Stormy Daniels? Because Cohen is the one who said he paid her off to keep her quiet about her affair with Trump. Or is Cohen one of "them"?

I'm not arguing that everything the FBI engages in is correct or right, but that hardly makes them traitors. And it certainly doesn't make them traitors for merely investigating Trump and his associates, or following where the evidence leads.

You act like more of an enemy to America, honestly, with your suggestion that people within the FBI be murdered because you don't like the scope of an investigation. That's pure banana republic stuff and completely contrary to our system of justice.
Not murdered..punished by capital punishment. Executed. Hardly the same thing.
