Cohen knows that Davis is working for Muellor. That is his get out of jail card. Just come up with dirt on Trump. If they used the Russian dossier they will use anything that Cohen can fabricate.

LOL...you are in no trouble, it is a crime only if you tear the tags and then sell it as new.

Whatever crime Cohen is charged with, has nothing to do with Russia collusion. Mueller has unlimited budget and can hire as many democrat lawyers as he wants. Mueller is part of the Neocon GOP elites like Bushes who appointed him. The insults Trump threw at low energy Jeb have not been forgotten by the globalist Bushes. So Mueller is filing through whole lives of Trump associates and finding anything they did that was not legal.

Good thing I am not in the Trump inner circle because I might have rounded off my interest from a saving account to the nearest dollar the wrong way. If bank paid me $32.50 interest, I am never sure if it should be $32 or $33.

Only reason Bush nominee Mueller sent the Cohen case to NY state is so the POTUS can not pardon him.

So why dont lawyers groups, bar groups, state AG’s (most are Republicans), and other stakeholders file suit ......

Cohen may be allowing the grab of privileged information, as a set-up for a huge lawsuit if the case gets to court and gets tossed; and tossed it will get.

Cohen's case is not in New York State court. It is in federal court (so Trump could pardon him). Cohen is being investigated by the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York (a Trump appointee).

To me he's best known for voluntarily going on the G. Gordon Liddy radio show back in the day and having his lunch handed to him.

Aren’t there Freepers here who defend the little Keebler Elf? What say you, defenders of the Elf?

Sessions has been the biggest botch Trump has committed, his weak enforcement is letting this pile of manure roll down hill.

Thanks for clearing that up...I mistakenly thought since the case was in southern NY district, it was a state case.

“...what if there were tapes of Davis meeting with the Clintons about their foundation activities?...”

Who says there aren’t?

Now, as Cohen’s attorney, Davis MUST have his office and home raided and all his files, data and devices confiscated by the Fed and be immediately available to our Chief Executive Officer, President Trump.
