I saw a report in the last few days indicating that Trump and the Trump Organization had signed a waiver of attorney-client privilege for the recordings Cohen released to CNN. So, yeah ... I’d say there’s a lot more to this story than meets the eye. LOL.

You’re correct about the impact during the mid terms. The questions is many have said there has been more than enough to pull the plug months and months ago. So why didn’t they? There are so many actions that should have been taken long before now and yet they haven’t. Why are people not questioning why?

HIGHLY suspect timing of this “BREAKING” news. Done so as a diversion ahead of tomorrow’s AWESOME GDP NUMBER! All choreographed and timed by Mueller and his DeepStateMedia.

...was aware of an infamous June 2016 meeting with Russian operatives at Trump Tower...

The only "infamous" thing about that meeting was that the press thinks it was a big deal. Woman from some other country claims to have information. Trump's campaign hear's her out. Turns out she was lying and wanted to talk about something else...where is the scandal? Should Trump's campaign have had a policy of never talking to people from other countries to avoid the appearance of the other country stealing an election? How absurd! And yet this seems to be the standard that Trump's campaign (and only Trump's campaign) is oddly held to. Suppose a campaign absolutely refused to talk to any foreigners...how long before the charges of xenophobia started?

Why wouldn’t he? If somebody calls and says I know some really bad things about your opponent, there’s no reason not to go. It’s also completely legal, even if it’s a dreaded Russian. When Trump’s son realize they were just jerking his chain, he ended the meeting. So what?

Related, but how does Cohen releasing this help his cause? It doesn’t. In fact, it dilutes its value. Did this really come from him?

Oh for heaven's sake.

Those Democrats. They sure are perplexed.

I'll be adding this to my posts for a few days, once per thread I participate on.


Red Pill People > We Need to Know About

John Stossil intro explains: (first three people)

Candace Owens
Brandon Tatum
CJ Pearson

Larry Elder (Conservative talk show host - Los Angeles / back into the 80s [ I believe ] )
Jesse Lee Peterson (someone we've known about since before 2001)


These people are opening up the eyes of Blacks from within their ranks.

I think it's important we know who they are and promote them when we can.

I may be the last to know of them, but I don't want anyone else not to know, so here's the info.

Even if you knew about them before, this might be a decent resource for finding their work.

When you hit the links above, you'll see Google's information page.

You'll be able to learn more about them using links there.

Click on the VIDEO button at the top and you'll be taken to a list of their YouTube videos.

Enjoy.


I'm sure I've left people out, so I'd appreciate folks mentioning them to me so I can add them to this short list.

And besides apparently meeting a Brit to discuss her opponent is just hunky-dory. Of course the way Hillary did it comma by pain of Foreigner does become illegal. Just like it was illegal but they took Chinese money in the 90s. Like it was illegal for Obama and Hillary to take money from Palestinian boiler rooms.

I don’t care!

My 401k is going through the roof.

My Hershey’s stock went up 7% today. (Invest in chocolate)

My paycheck is bigger without even getting a raise.

We’re winning everywhere.

Michael Cohen is the sleaziest lawyer who ever lived.

Trump 2020 and beyond!

Nothing to discuss.

This is a ploy to knock the 5% GDP growth off the front pages tomorrow. Won't work.

Some are saying that Rudy is facilitating the release of many recent news stories on this topic. Rudy, just like Mr. Trump, can be very sly. I do notice he (Gulianni) is giving less vis-a vi interviews to the press here lately, which is fine by me.
To Rudy, I say;
Perform your magic behind closed doors, w/o having to give one outlandish statement after the other like a month before.

So it’s illegal to talk to Russians if you’re not a Democrat?
