The other cooperator to keep an eye on is Allen Weisselberg.

LOCK THEM ALL UP!!!



Nothing sad about it. They are all criminals, father and children, alike.
I am sad for Barron, and to a lesser degree, Tiffany Trump. Perhaps they can change their surname, as did Manafort's daughter, but their faces are too well-known for total obscurity.

Speaking of Cohen, whatever happened to that multi-million dollar slush fund that Cohen was running under the auspices of Essential Consultants?

What did Trump know about it?
Did any of that money make its way back to Trump?
Were taxes paid on it?
Was Cohen breaking the law by acting as an unregistered lobbyist?

I hope this resurfaces again. We deserve answers to those questions.

Nothing Good Happens to the Boss When They Flip the Accountant

Mueller is actually the least of DJT's worries right now ( he's insulated as POTUS).. He is likely going to end up losing his entire fortune and his Family will too since they are so involved in "Trump Organization"!

Post after leaving office..State's will continue to unravel DJT's total ****** lies/fraud/Bilking of the system ..

Greed often ends up bringing the Braggart's to their knees, sooner rather than later !! Sadly, DJT will also bring down his Family too!!



They will bring their selves down. They know right from wrong.

Such irony, that Trump would be brought down by his sleazy "encounter" with Stormy, which led to her consulting Avenatti, and the revelation of Cohen's financial covering for that encounter.

Interesting that it took this mess's coming to light for Cohen to repent his previous ways. I do hope he is sincere, and welcome his speaking out now, regardless of what may have triggered it - but I doubt if he turns out to be Russiagate's John Dean. Time will tell.

Hope I am mistaken and that his repentance is sincere.
Right now no one can really say what is motivating Cohen to turn from a Trump supporter into a spear into the heart of his organization
One story I read was that Cohen is very close to his father
His father is a doctor, Holocaust survivor as child who came to America and really believes in the "American Dream"
His father was (from what I read) disgusted at Trump's comments during the Charlottesville March--
Really saw the racist agenda Trump has been indirectly pushing come to the fore
That made him talk to Cohen about supporting a man with that type of Anti-American attitude
Cohen apparently never had that conversation with his father--and who knows about the uncle with Russian Mafia ties--
But according to people to know Cohen personally--
His father had lot to do with making Cohen turn his attitude around...

That is a book that might be worth reading...

And SDNY is likely going to be unraveling that Gordion Knot...

The only action Weisselberg has cooperated with so far is the forced agreement to the payoff info that Cohen testified to in SDNY court
Weisselberg couldn't plead the 5th because he was force-fed immunity--
So he had to testify---
He has no way not to...

So far there have been no other mentions of his involvement with ANY Trump business (like the Russia deal) or payoff run through the Trump Corporation that were supposed to be charges by the Trump campaign
I think there could be lot of money laundering and graft that occurred with campaign donations and false billing--
But that hasn't really been investigated by FEC or any other group that I know of...

How???
I am not excusing their actions--
All three of them had an excellent private school education at some tony schools and technically they should have been exposed to writers and classes about moral choices

But when you have a father who is just a big con artist
A Mom who lets you be raised by nannies and private schools and herself takes payoffs from the Donald in lieu of being honest about their relationship, his behavior, and her own self-serving lifestyle

What do you think you are going to get???
Actions speak louder than words---

Parents can tell their kids all they want--'don't drink and drive", "don't do drugs", "behave", "don't lie to me"
And then when they turn around and do exactly what they are telling their kids NOT to do---it is worthless
It is worse than worthless--it is hypocrisy
And nothing kills trust like hypocrisy in a family...

MAYBE yes or Maybe NO as Weisselberg was VERY much involved with DJT during the Russian Slush Fun Banking by Russian Oligarchs going way back.. ALA "Money Laundering" schemes!

So, not so sure Old AL doesn't have information helpful for State/Fed offences !! Immunity given, only means HE won't go to jail... However, we already know that M. Cohen actually went thru HIM to open up "Shell" Companies to siphon funds to pay off his " affairs" in order to hide from his "Wives" and Media .. NDA's was a common document that was recycled for many decades in DJT WORLD!!
