(565 posts)Cohen is going to jail in part for lying about TT Moscow. Cohen said at first talks ended Jan 2017 but later admitted talks went through June. Giuliani, (sp?) later said that talks went all the way to Nov 2016!
Add to that, ruskies bailed out DJT going back to the mid-1990's while oligarchs laundered Russia's wealth from oil and then into Trump properties where these type of transactions are easily hidden.
Manifort could have flipped but he didn't and Trump called him a strong man. So there's some still unresolved "witting" going on there too. Mueller's mandate ran its course, but blowback from what he discovered in less than two years, is possibly the opening chapter of the crime of the century against the United States.
The fact that Rosenstein stayed on as a "heat shield" for a "bit" longer says something too. The Heat: If the Mueller report appears weak and no "collusion" or conspiracy going on, but dozens of other cases spun off and exist in other FBI field offices, could this be a green light and attempt by Republicans to end all of the investigations by this corrupt administration. Recall the past few days were all about the "Fake Dossier" which is mostly true so far. Or, could the report be so rattling that Barr can't deny it and the possibility that we had a fraudulent election and therefore, we have a fraudulent and compromised president of the United States then the charges will be Conspiracy to commit fraud upon the United States, which "trumps" any no collusion claims any day of the week!+
