from article:

“The New York Times reported on Sunday that investigators are working to determine if Cohen committed bank fraud on over $20 million worth of loans related to his taxi business, as well as campaign finance violations.”

Sounds like another item that isn’t Trump related.

But did he sing or compose to get his plea deal?

If there's no underlying crime by Trump, Cohen has nothing to offer regarding Trump.

If there is criminality by Trump, let's hear about it.

Cohen lying about imaginary crimes will affect nothing. Real crimes, real consequences, but I don't think he can produce anything against Trump.

With the Manafort trial possibly going against him, Mueller may be looking for the exits. A plea deal with Cohen would be one of them.

Post 6 is from NYT. They are hooked in to Mueller, so my guess is that Mueller is trying to kill bad news on the Manafort trial that might be coming down.

Cohen hired Russian taxi drivers.

This is suspiciously close to a possible bad bit of news on Manafort.

That suggests the jury in Manafort is wrapping it up and Mueller is nervous.

Wait for details? Drudge didn’t. He headlined that Cohen “flipped”. I’m about to stop even looking at that page. Drudge is the one who has flipped.

Sessions is the single biggest disappointment of the last election.

And we lost his senate seat.

Wishful thinking. The deep state is going to bombard us with anti-Trump bad news all the way through November. That kind of collusion is OK.

Got to remember that Cohen hired Clinton lawyer Lanny Davis to be his lawyer.

Mueller is above the law. He was supposed to be investigating Russian collusion but used a pornstar/stripper from 10 years ago to get Trump’s lawyer to flip.

I hope the citizens that supported Trump are just as ruthless if they overthrow our elected president. We have to set there and take it when they have a POS like obama or hillary in office. We elect someone from outside this corrupt government and it’s all out war on us. I don’t like it.

The “media”, aka the enemy of the American people, is reporting that Cohen has “flipped”. Is that how we do things in this sh*thole these days? Threaten somebody with life in prison to get them to “flip” and lie about the President of the United States to keep their ass out of prison? Friggin’ DC swamp is worse than Chicago. It’s Mueller and his band of Clintoonettes that should be going to prison.

FOX is reporting that the deal has to do with payments to Trump's women. Not taxi cabs.
