1. It might be a reference to a standard letter format for the DOJ in a plea deal.

2. Why would they date it August 21st and then leave an April date at the bottom? How many people must have read this and noticed this discrepancy?

3. Why would the signature dates match the date at the top of the letter and not the date in the footer?

4. The timing of this plea deal announcement could have meant a number of things: It probably has LESS of an impact on Trump since it shares headlines with the Manafort convictions. And the Manafort convictions may have simply meant that the deal with Cohen could be formally announced because he may no longer be needed as a cooperating witness in the other Manafort case.

Here is a crumb from a Twitter thread on this.
On April 24th, the same day as the latest revision, it was announced that Sessions would not recuse himself from the Cohen investigation

The Democrats are going to play this down during the lead-up to the elections, but you know that if they do gain power, impeachment will be the very first thing that they do. There is no doubt about it. They will think of a reason later but they will come up with one.

This is why we cannot let them regain the House.

Obvious that they will impeach based on a nothing burger and tear this country apart if they get the house. It’s imperative that the GOP get out the vote in every Congressional District. I’d like to know who is heading this up and what they are doing.

What are the current predictions for November, if you know? The RINOs gain or lose or Dims gain or lose in both houses. I haven’t searched for any predictions in some time now.

Typical Lib eral Fascist approach.

” Vote for me and we’ll see what I do.”

That’s a great platform.There is not enough Trump derangeent syndrome to make that work.

Obviously Pelosi thinks Mueller is going to save both her bacon and pork.

After PDJT sees the GOP gain in the house and Senate, you will see him finally have the People take control of the DOJ and FBI.

Remember: Its door to door to get out the GOP vote.

Her priority is getting dems elected in November and getting rid of Kavanaugh. If they get enough dems, they go after Trump.

She''s a LIAR; what she REALLY MEANS:

"Impeachment is not a priority until AFTER, YOU SUCKERS vote us back INTO POWER: then it's full speed ahead; IMPEACHMENT 24/7 UNTIL WE OVERTHROW THE GOVERNMENT AND PERMANENTLY GET RID OF TRUMP. And then it's onto forming another FBI, DOI INjustice panel to get rid of Pence.

This woman must think we're all stupid.

If Nazi Pelousy or any other demonrat or RINO votes to impeach the president, they deserve to be swinging from a rope.

> The Senate won’t convict (unless by small chance Dems take that too).

Even if the Rats somehow manage to take the both the House and the Senate, they would need 67 votes to remove Trump.

Hard to imagine them getting even 60 votes for removal, let alone 67.

The Dems are going DOWN in the mid-terms and 2020 is going to be a cake walk for President Trump’s re-election..

From your lips ... err ... keyboard, to God's ears.

The really fun part about this is that while WE all knew this was a nothingburger and would not result in anything even close to impeachment, the radical Left nutballs did not. They put all their eggs in this basket. For Pelosi to say this will be taken as a betrayal, and will further open the rifts already appearing in the Dem/Prog intersectionality alliance.

Pelosi saying impeachment not a priority to think about now....


First priority swearing in of the new Congress run by Dems.
Gavel goes down.

One second later, NOW a priority has been decided upon to start impeachment.

Like Mueller telling Trump he is not a target. Then, oops, I changed my mind and you *are* a target due to Cohen and new information suddenly in my hands. Sorry abut that.

“After the November elections she will change her tune.”

You mean after the RATS retake the House, on account of all the Q-TARD BS - which will ultimately discourage and depress Trump voters - when the promised indictments and prison terms fail to materialize against members of Clinton Crime Inc.?

My point was that it’s not the date of the document, it’s the date of the form.
