Hey Individual One, you do know that they have multiple sources that corroborate Cohen's story, don't you? And, a subornation of perjury was a charge against both Nixon and Clinton? #ImpeachTrump #TrumpShutdown #CrookedTrump

(12,132 posts)that's what he did the FIRST time (at your behest). But then Mueller showed him some cards and he knew he was nabbed.

(7,725 posts)until the Feds come sniffing then their exchanges involve "Thousands" Yeah sure. Must be different sentencing rules based on money involved.

(10,252 posts)I just want to remind you, just in case you forgot, that when Mueller raided Cohen's home and office, he got the emails, the computers, and boxes of paper docs. Now you sit down and think about that.
My very best advice for you is to resign and fly to a country that doesn't have extradition treaty with the USA -- ya know, like Russia.

(7,821 posts)careful not to fall for planted forgeries, false admissions, off the record misleading quotes, etc..
It's worked several times before.
I believe this particular group has a long history of fraud, crime, shortcuts, treachery of various types, conspiracy, ends-justify-the-means behavior, etc. Which is why they are desperate and will try anything, legal or not. I also believe they have schemed and plotted since 2014 or earlier for this moment, along with oligarchs worldwide, and won't overlook any opportunity to get over on the rest of us once again.

(7,404 posts)That would be an aggravating factor much more likely to increase your jail time. So in this exchange, who do you suppose is doing the lying?
Follow the money.

(2,022 posts)Given the previous letter sent to Trump when he first mentioned Cohen's FIL, the House Democrats will send a referral to DOJ for investigation for witness tampering. Watch.

(2,612 posts)Anything he says would need to be corroborated, by witnesses or other evidence. If the Buzzfeed story is accurate, Cohen's story becomes believable.
