Right. Live by the sword, die by the sword.

Good points. He has been Trump's 'fixer' for a decade, an observer and facilitator of every slimy escapade in that time.

After taking Trump's abuse for more than 10 years, Cohen would probably thank his executioner for the rope or the bullets.

Well, this was unexpected.
Looks like Mueller was involved in some way.
Will update as more news becomes available.
To secure a free state.
Guess we don't have a 4th or 5th amendment.

This whole thing stinks to high heaven, and is just another feeble attempt by the left to try and uncover something....anything, on Donald Trump. Whatever happened to attorney-client privilege? Nothing that falls into that category could be used in a court of law.

Overlooking the fact that this alleged relationship occurred in 2006, which has no bearing whatsoever on the election, Bimbo herself said that she would not have signed a hush agreement in 2016 had she known that Trump himself was not a party to it. Further, if Cohen paid HER, out of his own funds, there is no connection to any campaign funds.

This whole sordid thing only matters to the leftist media because of the salacious aspects of it and they think it will somehow take down Donald Trump. Except it won't. It's not like he was raping interns in the Oval Office and leaving stains on blue dresses.

The gestapo FBI & DOJ think they will find something that will flip Cohen, but there is no probable cause for a raid in the first place. And raiding an attorney's office like he's Tony Montana is uncalled for and possibly illegal. The whole thing will blow up in the liberal's faces just like everything else. A first year law student could make mince meat out of this one.

Ok, just give me the name of a state that refuses to honor an extradition warrant for a felony? Just name one state.... If you can't then perhaps it's time to move on from this subject

It stinks to high heaven alright. But not for the weak reasoning that you offer here.

Without reading anyone their rights, and then violate them?

Who didn't get their rights read to them? Cohen wasn't arrested and if you read his statement after the FBI served their warrant he had no complaints about how the FBI treated him.

But it isn't like it matters what actually happened. 50M people will see Trump's tweet about how the office was broken into whereas the fact of the matter is that it was apparently not nearly as violent of an endeavor as Trump depicted yet, but only a tiny fraction of people will hear that part.
