I have great concerns about that weirdo Pence. But god damn. As of now i trust him more with the longevity of my country as i know it than i do the piece of orange snake shit. RE: FBI raids Trump lawyer's office - jj22 - 04-12-2018 100's of hearings and investigations into HRC by Republicans over 20 years. If there was something there they would have got her. Important to note these are Republicans that are indicting and investigating Trump and his associates. Not Dems. The problem is much of the Clinton hate is based on conspiracy theories, and that isn't enough to indict or get people arrested. Ignore rhetoric and follow the law. Republicans hate HRC. You can't tell me they would cover for her and not the Republican POTUS like people like to claim now. We must take off the political blinders and use logic and common sense or Politicians will forever play people for fools.

RE: FBI raids Trump lawyer's office - Belsnickel - 04-13-2018 Anyone else read the response from the USAO-SDNY to Cohen's lawyer's filings? http://online.wsj.com/public/resources/documents/2018_0413_cohen_vs_USA.pdf I thought this was intriguing: Quote:Fourth, the USAO-SDNY has specific reason to doubt that the seized materials will include the volume and nature of attorney-client communications that Cohen claims. This is because the USAO-SDNY has already obtained search warrants – covert until this point – on multiple different email accounts maintained by Cohen, and has conducted a privilege review of the materials obtained pursuant to those warrants. The results of that review, as reported by the USAO’s Filter Team, indicate that Cohen is in fact performing little to no legal work, and that zero emails were exchanged with President Trump.

Could it be they are just not using electronic correspondence? That's weird. Also, I wonder what they DID find...covertly. ![]() RE: FBI raids Trump lawyer's office - Belsnickel - 04-13-2018 Here is a good opinion piece from a couple of days ago on this, as well: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/04/10/opinion/trump-michael-cohen-fbi-raid.html The author is the well-known Twitter denizen, @popehat. His actual name is Ken White and he is a former federal prosecutor and is currently a criminal defense attorney. Quote:After a year of almost weekly revelations about Robert Mueller’s investigation of Donald Trump’s 2016 campaign, even indictments and guilty pleas of campaign officials have grown familiar. It’s not that the special counsel, Mr. Mueller, is crying wolf; it’s that we’ve gotten used to real wolves. Only truly startling developments engage a lot of us.

RE: FBI raids Trump lawyer's office - Belsnickel - 04-13-2018 Only the best people: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/04/13/us/politics/lawyers-for-trumps-personal-attorney-set-for-friday-court-appearance.html?smid=tw-share Quote:President Trump phoned his longtime confidant, Michael D. Cohen, to “check in” on Friday as lawyers for the two men went to court to block the Justice Department from reading seized documents related to Mr. Cohen’s decade of work for Mr. Trump, according to two people familiar with the call. Cohen's emails were (are) under surveillance, his calls may be, as well.

I mean, I think he would believee that since he's a stable genius and all, but a "man" like Trump has never had THIS level of scrutiny. The few times he HAS been scrutinized he ends up paying (Trump U, for example). He may not be impeached. I doubt he'll ever do jail time. But if we can at least get a glimpse of the criminal he is I'd be happy. RE: FBI raids Trump lawyer's office - ballsofsteel - 04-13-2018 Being Drumph is from NY, will he serve his prison time at Sing Sing? RE: FBI raids Trump lawyer's office - Belsnickel - 04-13-2018 This kind of straddles the investigations, and I'm not sure if it is true, but it would be huge if it is. http://www.mcclatchydc.com/news/politics-government/white-house/article208870264.html#cardLink=tallRow1_card1 Quote:The Justice Department special counsel has evidence that Donald Trump’s personal lawyer and confidant, Michael Cohen, secretly made a late-summer trip to Prague during the 2016 presidential campaign, according to two sources familiar with the matter.

Apparently, Cohen says he has only three clients, and won't name one of them. Things just got started, really, with the prosecutor pointing out that this shouldn't be treated any differently than any other case and that this is about Cohen's business dealings, not his being an attorney. "Mr. Cohen might have a legal degree, but this investigation and the search is largely focused on his business dealings and personal financial dealings."

If what I read earlier is accurate he'll have a hard time demanding attorney/client privilege if there is no client to demand the privilege. RE: FBI raids Trump lawyer's office - Belsnickel - 04-16-2018 Cohen's third client is Sean Hannity.
