Picture worth a thousand words

...of the Cohen plea agreement.



Joyce Alene @JoyceWhiteVance 22h22 hours ago
I took this picture this morning after I finished reading the Cohen information & plea agreement because I wanted to make sure I could always remember the moment when it became clear Mueller was preparing to lay down a royal flush.

SO encouraging... sometimes it feels like he can get away with murder.

Superficial comment: MSNBC needs to improve their lighting on guests. She looks beautiful here.

They don't always come to the Rockefeller Center in NYC, they might be taped "live" somewhere else. I think some might go to the NBC affiliate in their home city, or wherever they happen to be. It makes sense because they don't always know until later in the day if they're going to be on air, and there's no time to hop on a plane and fly to NY. And I agree with you, the lighting isn't always flattering.

I have seen Joyce Vance appear on MSNBC a bunch of times, and she is great for two reasons:

--She always knows and understands the subject matter.
--She is very precise with her words. She uses qualifying words such as, "This might cause Mueller to do this" or "Cohen may be thinking this". If she is not 100% sure that something is true, she does not claim that something is absolutely true." She is like another one of my favorite contributors, Chuck Rosenberg, who is also extremely careful with his wording. These are exactly the type of guests that Rachel Maddow goes for--guests who are extremely knowledgeable and are also extremely precise. Thank you for the knowledge and accuracy Ms. Vance. The quality of your contributions are noticed and appreciated. ☺

Without wild cards, this is the rarest of all poker hands. What Vance is saying is that the cards have been laid down, Cohen will tell everything...............................................................
.and as a result Trump has totally lost. Why? Cohen knows everything,
...................................yes, all the illegal stuff. repeat...all the illegal stuff, again..." ALL" the illegal stuff"

She knows her shit, and if she says a royal flush is coming from Mueller, I believe it.

Glad people like her are on our side. Total badass.
