The people of the USA have a debt to Mr. Michael Cohen for his decision to be open about his involvement in the Trump Organization and the hush money he managed for Donald John Trump.
We got a perp walk today due to Mr. Cohen.
Michael Cohen left his family to serve time for his crimes. He was right to cooperate and bring the real criminal to trial. Trump has no respect for women. He used her for his own self-gratification. She never made it to The Apprentice as a measure to get her cooperation with a trip to Trump's bed. She is beautiful and typical of the Miss Universe women Trump coveted.
Mr. Bragg has an ironclad case. I thank him for his work in this matter and making sure no person in this country is above the law. It isn't easy to defend a democracy, but, today was another step in doing so.

Cohen was a longtime confidant, personal lawyer and self-described “fixer” (click here) for Trump. But as investigations into the hush money payment and other alleged misconduct ramped up, Cohen turned on his former boss and now ranks as one of Trump’s most vocal critics.
Cohen admitted in 2018 to breaking campaign finance laws in arranging the payment to Daniels and a separate payment to another woman. He served time in prison after pleading guilty in two federal cases. One, brought by special counsel Robert S. Mueller III, involved Cohen’s lies to Congress about a possible Trump Tower project in Moscow. The other, brought by federal prosecutors, focused on tax and bank fraud allegations, as well as campaign finance violations. During sentencing, he said his “weakness” was “blind loyalty to Donald Trump.”...

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (click here) told reporters Tuesday after the arraignment of former President Donald Trump that a "thorough investigation" led to his office's decision to charge Trump with 34 felony counts of falsifying business records.
"This is the business capital of the world," Bragg said about New York City. "We regularly do cases involving false business statements. The bedrock of the basis for business integrity and a well-functioning business marketplace is accurate record-keeping."
Trump pleaded not guilty to the 34 felony counts.
Bragg conducted a grand jury investigation related to a $130,000 payment to adult film star Stormy Daniels made by Trump's former attorney and "fixer" Michael Cohen in the days before the 2016 presidential election. Trump has denied a sexual encounter with Daniels. Bragg's office announced last week that a grand jury had indicted the former president.
The indictment remained under seal ahead of Trump's arraignment, after which the charges against him were made public....
