Our criminal in chief

Quote:Cohen pleaded guilty to eight counts Tuesday in a surprise hearing in New York that happened within an hour of a jury dropping a guilty verdict on eight counts in the trial against Trump's former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort.
Cohen admitted to charges of lying about his income to evade income taxes, lying to banks to obtain loans, and making illegal contributions to benefit Trump’s campaign. The contributions to Trump's campaign were violations of campaign finance laws and were made by arranging payoffs to silence two women who claimed to have had affairs with Trump.
WASHINGTON – Michael Cohen, the president's former lawyer and fixer, doesn't want a pardon from President Donald Trump and, rather, is hoping to open up about what he knows to investigators with the special counsel Robert Mueller, his lawyer said. Speaking with NPR Wednesday morning, Lanny Davis, Cohen's attorney, said his client wasn't interested in being pardoned.
It's no coincidence that Trump is surrounded by criminals
Trump is a criminal, surrounded by criminals.
Go.

Well, there is a live press conference and every single question that has been asked to Sandra Sanders has been effectively dodges and evaded.
We won't ever get answers and nothing will ever be done. He's crooked, his staff is crooked and any member of Congress who continues to sit and watch, without taking any action to remove him from office, is crooked.

I was just watching Sarah Fuckabee try to defend the asshole. She kept saying "He hasn't been charged with anything"....... Me "YET"
No damned ethical court lawyer is going to put a finger pointer in front of a judge and have it put on record solely based on their word alone. There is evidence to back up what Cohen said, all be it sealed right now, otherwise they wouldn't have done that.

I hope Cohen sings it all before he gets his dose of Novichok. Or Polonium. Time to trot out the Polonium cat again.
I don't know where the Polonium went!

Quote:‘Trump is now an illegitimate president’: Conservative Washington Post columnist
Quote:“For the first time since Watergate, the president is now an alleged co-conspirator in the commission of a federal crime,” Boot said.
But Boot answers his own question later on.
Quote:“A responsible Congress would have by now already convened an impeachment inquiry. But that is not the Congress we have,” he noted. “We have a Congress dominated by political hacks and moral invertebrates who are determined to act as the president’s enablers and legitimizers at all costs.”
Get off your fucking asses and VOTE, Dems!

I'm trying to remember the last USian president who was called 'an unindicted co-conspirator'. Think, think, think. Come on, brain, don't let me down just as I was beginning to like you...
Oh, right...
Here's hoping history repeats itself.

Edit Reason: typo
)
I took some popcorn to my MiL and she was watching the news. Newscaster was saying that Kavanaugh's confirmation hearing for the SCOTUS is to be delayed while the fact that 45 possibly isn't a lawful president is investigated. I really, really, really hope I heard that right.
Fucking ninja'd.

Hell you don't need to be a dem to have a rationale to vote against the republican/nazi party in the next election. Any other vote means you really don't give a damn about this country, the world or the future. At this point in time a dem vote is the surest vote again the rising scum of a criminal regime.
