CNN: Michael Cohen in talks to plead guilty to criminal charges

[Juan de Fuca]

The POTUS can be impeached for any reason the Congress wants to impeach him. The only check on that is the Senate in deciding whether or not they want to remove him. There is no judicial review and the Congress is never obligated to impeach him and the Senate is never obligated to remove him.

Absolutely correct, but it also becomes an item of interest for a future Congress that may be lead by the Democrats.

Plead guilty. Do the time. And never mention Trump by name.

Never has to answer another question about it.

He fingered a candidate. It only had one candidate client.
That be the Great Lying Orange Douche!

OOPS!

Just announced. Michael Cohen implicated his client, Donald Trump, in a coverup of a crime which fits the designation of a high crime and misdemeanor which according to the Constitution, makes the President eligible for removal by impeachment.

BREAKING: Cohen pleaded guilty to five counts of tax evasion, one count of making a false statement to a bank and two campaign finance violations, according to court papers.

President Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen has surrendered to the FBI in New York as he prepares to plead guilty Tuesday afternoon in an investigation into his activities and business dealings, according to people familiar with the matter.

Cohen is expected to plead guilty to charges related to bank fraud, tax fraud and a campaign finance violation, according to two people with knowledge of the situation. Cohen agreed to the deal after prosecutors claimed he risked more than a dozen years in prison, one person said.

A hearing in the case is scheduled for 4 p.m. Tuesday at a federal courthouse in Manhattan. Afterward, Deputy U.S. Attorney Robert Khuzami, who has been overseeing the probe, is scheduled to make public remarks.

Indeed. Of course it is well known that he is a liar of the first order, so while the progressive left is all hot and bothered the rest of the country knows what a despicable scumbag he is. And no surprise, he is manufacturing evidence to try and save himself. the audio recording that was released says the exact opposite.

You have to prove it was Trump and cant rel yon anything from Cohen.

There were 16 republican candidates.

Cohen was finance for RNC.

 

[Juan de Fuca]

Where did he implicate Trump ?

When he told the judge that he was directed to pay money to coverup his relationship with Stormy Daniels.

 

[Baz Ares]

Well, Somebody tell FLOTUS the money was paid to the sex workers.
But, as she's a former hooker, she may not care. Glad it was outsourced.

He said Trump directed him? Link?

 

[JGalt]

Since when is hush money illegal?

True. Even then, Cohen has repeatedly said that he paid Daniels the $130,000 out of his own pocket and was not reimbursed.

Yet another big fat nothingburger from the ever-hopeful left.

No, he didn't say Trump. He said he was directed by a federal official, but there is no other government person involved in this. It is Trump and the fallout is going to be huge.

Maybe he did...from FOX I just want the truth

Michael Cohen, President Trump's longtime personal attorney, admitted Tuesday to violating federal campaign finance laws by paying $130,000 in hush money to adult film star Stormy Daniels in October 2016 "at the direction" of then-candidate Trump.

He paid for a candidate, and the candidate paid Cohen back.
