Lol this investigation imploding before our eyes. If all of these people start pleading guilty and not looking for deals, what leverage is left?

just because you plead guilty doesnt mean you can't take a deal. people plea guilty to get a deal, or plea guilty for lenient sentencing. guilty plea doesn't mean being uncooperative inherently.

What? A plea deal and cooperation with the Special Counsel is exactly what Mueller wants.

Feels like Mueller is laying out the "why did they conspire" before the "how did they conspire".

People noted that after Cohen first pled guilty, there was no cooperation agreement. But clearly he's been cooperating, and his lawyer says he will continue to cooperate.

So many lies in relation to Russia from practically every high profile player in the Trump campaign... nothing suspicious about that.

Here's some backstory on Trump tower in Moscow for the uninitiated:

This is why focusing on the Mueller report at this point is silly. He's telling the story through indictments.

Goom, there's some more stories you can point out as fake news. Cohen and others fed journalists the lie that he admitted in court today.

In written testimony to the Senate Intelligence Committee, Mr. Cohen played down the extent of his contact with the Kremlin about the potential project and made other false statements about the negotiations, which never led to a final deal.
=> But he finally admitted he lied on that.

Look like the Club45 god is fucked up, his last tweets are clearly a sign of panic.

Wait the subpoena cannon in January, in case the god emperor does not jump off through the window. :o

Trump called Cohen a "weak person."

If Cohen were a stronger person, he'd continue to lie for the President.

So where are we on the "Manafort had secret meetings with Assange"?

Now that the story appears almost certainly false, are we going to sweep it under the rug with the others?

This is how a criminal president speaks.

Yes, I'm sure nobody here will ever mention it again.

Also worth noting, Whitaker probably signed off on today's actions. Confirmed deep state mole.

No way, we aren't sure and the journalist who published this very trusted.
Note this is not the only news we had this week...
