Most people who live in NYC have open-ended HELOC's on the equity in their homes that can be used for any purpose. It's as simple as writing a check and cashing it the same way you would write a check out of your checkbook or swiping a debit card. When you own a condo in NYC and have for as long as Cohen has the equity built up is easily worth multi-millions. $130,000 against it is insignificant unless you default.
Sure, that's it.
He took out a home equity loan and paid the settlement out of his own pocket without his client knowing.
Attorneys take out loans and use their own money to settle cases for their clients all the time!
OH, YES--you reminded me of that in thread yesterday or day before--
Very well could be related to that and that type of election fraud would be heavy enough to draw a judge's endorsement as well as the AG for Southern District
But raid was in Maryland--
Cohen's raids in NYC (maybe NJ where his house is)
Why not the other two assistant RNC treasurers?
If this is the fuse being lit from that raid, you are getting ready to see republicans scatter like cockroaches when a flood light comes on.
All that matters is that Trump remains exceedingly popular with his base. As long as that remains the case, he is invincible. I'm concerned about an uprising if Trump is brought down, even if the reason would be justifiable under any other administration. Trump's base is more loyal to Trump than they are the USA (as the USA currently exists). The USA they are loyal to is the one that existed before 1964.
The FBI has gone full rogue.....clearly it is infested with Swamp Creatures.....hateful unAmericans out to conduct a coup on our President. Its an assault , an actual one , on our nation and the rule of law on which it is based.
They should be dealt with. Disbanded. Jailed. Executed. What have you. Whatever it takes to get rid of these enemies of our country.
That sounds a lot like what Hitler might have said. Executed? You are a dangerous person.
No he was not convicted, he was never even tried -- the pardon pre-empted any trial. And no you don't have to admit to anything to receive a pardon.
While a pardon removes one's ability to plead the 5th on questions related to the nature of the crime that was pardoned, there is no such thing as "voiding" a pardon. Once a pardon is issued it can't be un-done. The worst that can happen to someone who refuses to testify about actions for which he has been pardon is they can be held in contempt until such time as they agree to cooperate.
To receive a "Presidential Pardon", yes you must admit guilt.
