The Guardian: Donald Trump: 'worst hour' for president as Manafort and Cohen guilty
Former campaign chairman’s conviction and ex-lawyer’s plea deliver double blow as president faces legal jeopardy
Donald Trump has suffered a huge double blow after one of his former associates pleaded guilty and another was convicted of financial crimes, potentially leaving the president himself in legal jeopardy.
Michael Cohen, his longtime lawyer and “fixer”, pleaded guilty to eight charges including campaign finance violations and directly implicated Trump in paying “hush money” to women with whom he allegedly had affairs.

Trump is a crook. He surrounded himself with felons. He violated federal election laws.
Go ahead MAGA chuds, spin these facts. Tell us how facts aren't facts. At all times Trump is the victim and never accountable for his actions.
hey! Anon!
you left out the babes
Anon it certainly looks like it but it is not evidence. Remind you, someone who lied before (Cohen) is not a trustful source. While I do -believe- Trump may have violated campaign law by accident, I don't think he'd be so stupid to risk a felony over 130,000. He makes more in an hour. So that is a bit of nonsense. I do recognise though that he just might do stuff like that. But there has to be proof. A guy who potentially faces several decades jail time for his own, proven crimes is not a reliable witness. But if you've got the entire apparatus of the government coming down on you, you might have no choice but to rat someone out. And every one of us has committed crimes if the government just looks long enough. Do I care about hush money for a pornstar who trump might have f*cked? No..I truly and from the bottom of my heart don't care one bit. I care about Clinton's dieted emails and destroyed devices (13 devices! ).. and I care about the government trying to frame political opponents. I care about that a lot. Yes, sir. Mmhhmmhhm
I applaud your effort, anon at 11:22.
Thanks. ..I'm just being honest. Look. .I get it. .you want trump in jail. And believe me, if there's evidence for Russia collusion I'll applaud Mueller. It is crucial for the nation to find out. But. .short of Russia collusion I don't care on iota about the hush money. Do you think Clinton never paid hush money? Please be honest just as I am. If you are, you will agree that most people in public at that level at one point decide to pay off people. It happens all the time. I'm sure Trump had to pay off a hundred people in his life. 50 for f*cking around and doing stupid things, 50 because they came after him and threatened his name and brand. Do you know how many gold diggers there are in the US and how big a target a billionaire is? Please just be honest in your assessments and don't paint Trump supporters as fanatics. I just don't care about porn stars. No matter how much airtime cnn gives to them. I will not be swayed by that. It doesn't matter to me.
WNU Editor; where is all the stories about the FBI and Clinton Campaign? I generally like this site but aren't you just using this story as bait to gain attraction? This Media hype over these stories need to subside. I do not get how this matters with regards to WAR News. What War, other than the Media and Political war, are we talking about here.
Come on man! In Kindest Regards.
For those who wonder where are the facts an assert Cohen is a liar (as though Trump is not one!), there is likely to be a heck of a lot of taped materials with facts, facts, and more facts...and then there is Manafort, who probably will flip to escape a life in jail and reveal more facts. Ps: Michael: Hillary has not been indicted. There is no case. Why do you insist on bothering with her when Gaudy and Nunes et al spent endless days on her. And got nothing for their efforts. Now if you want no political news whatsoever, that is ok and you should state that. But if you want no political news unless it involves Hillary and the Dems, that is a different thing
There was evidence on hillary.. It was led by a biased investigation. Not even excluding Hillary backed a rapist back in the day, but that russian uranium deal. What's that song again.. Dam it feels good to be a gangster.
Lapides,
Answer the questions
no indictment no crime. simple as that.
golly, anon,aka AS, you are pesky little critter
Lapides,
OK Lapides to refresh your "memory"
Give an example of Brennan's "right of free speech" being infringed upon?
"intel guys, i imagine know more about what is taking place than we do"
What gives you the authority to use the plural "we" in this case?
Those have been and remain my questions, unanswered.
If you claim to know more than those pros in the intel group I would love to hear about your credentials...till then, they know more that WE
I have answered a number of times. stop being a pesky child
Lapides,
You have given opinions, not an example, which was asked for
