The Manafort conviction, of a sundry eight counts of tax evasion and bank fraud, seems like a big deal because there was so much fanfare, because the judge made a fool of himself a number of times, and because the jury took a while to decide. But the bigger event today was probably Cohen’s guilty plea to charges of tax evasion and election violations. That took much less time, no trial, presumably a bargain struck.
Here’s the important part: Michael Cohen, Donald Trump’s fixer and wise guy, pled guilty to paying off two women to keep them silent about affairs they had had with Trump, in coordination with Trump. Cohen explicitly said that he participated in this silencing arrangement “for the principal purpose of influencing the election.” So there you go.
Cohen will probably spend 3 years or so in the stir for that set of guilty pleas (which also involved tax fraud). It remains to be seen how much the former candidate, who apparently colluded, to use a certain term, with Cohen in that matter, will spend in prison. Keep in mind, of course, that the federal election law violation may be only a small part of Cohen’s likely multi-year conviction.
Tomorrow morning is a morning you may want to saunter down to the local news stand and pick up a copy of any respectable national newspaper. The front page is going to have an interesting set of headlines on it, I’ll wager.
Here’s an internet version for you in case you don’t actually have a news stand down the street:

They tried to go after John Edwards by turning a sex scandal into a campaign finance violation. Result was a hung jury and eventual dropping of charges, and that was after needing the argument that it was campaign related because of Edwards’s reputation as a family man.
Michael Cohen’s plea where they had him dead to rights on tax evasion doesn’t change that.
Now a former head of the FEC Bradley Smith has given a detailed explanation of why this isn’t a campaign finance violation.
You might try to learn this stuff, or you can just do another Wiley Coyote jump off the cliff.
How about Obomba “the drama” record fine to the FEC for campain finance violations,
which WERE NEVER MADE PUBLIC.
Oh look, whataboutism already.
* * *
If it was a crime for Cohen to arrange the payments, it was a crime for Trump to instruct him to do so. QED.
You scum are going to have to face the facts one day – your man is a criminal. And this is just the start.
I am glad scum was not plural, BBD; which means I posses it.
“If it was a crime for Cohen to arrange the payments, it was a crime for Trump to instruct him to do so. QED. ”
Bloke, have you ever appeared in a court as a defendant? Have yous ever
heard of the expression “he had a record as long as your arm.”
Since plead agreements are used to reduce court cases, BBD, typically
the Persecutor loads the defended up with multi-charges. Then during
negotiations, they will offer to drop some, if the defendant pleas
guilty to others. Conviction – with no expensive trial.
Heinrich Mueller wants a Trump link – thus the campain violation.
Do not forget your hero, Obomba “the drama” plead guilty to these
charges by the FEC and received a record fine – with escapes you.
It was a fucking crime, you muppet. Cohen was found guilt of election tampering in 2016 – and stated that he was ordered to do it by Trump. Can’t you understand even the simplest things?
“Do not forget your hero, Obomba “the drama” plead guilty to these
charges by the FEC and received a record fine – with escapes you.”
Not even close to the same you lying pig shit. From the noted left-wing rag the Wall Street Journal:
We know you racist scum hate the fact that President Obama was elected, was able to speak well, and led with dignity, but most of all that he isn’t white. Your ignorance and low IQ combine to make it incredibly easy to prove false.
We already know from your “civil war if Trump is impeached” bull that your claims to love the Constitution are fake. Now it seems you don’t care for the legal system — at least when whites are held to account. No surprise, since personal responsibility is among the things the modern right lacks.

Nixon was at least honorable enough and respectful enough of the country to step down when he got caught. I expect that the final removal process for Trump could be more prolonged and a lot messier. Kind of like a poorly shucked clam. But hey, Bob Mueller looks like he may just be the world master of the legal clam knife.
Oh boy. Here we go again.
“Mr. Edwards was not convicted — the jury acquitted him on one of the counts and could not come to a decision on the rest of them. But, Mr. Ryan said, prosecutors in New York “have a much stronger case for a variety of reasons against Team Trump.”
Mr. Edwards’s case — the first of its kind and therefore, the only actual template for the New York prosecutors — centered on some $1 million that two of his supporters provided to finance an elaborate scheme portraying Mr. Edwards’s mistress, Rielle Hunter, as the lover of Mr. Edwards’s aide Andrew Young.
The Edwards prosecutors argued that the $1 million that Mr. Edwards’s donors gave to the cover-up — which included a claim that Mr. Young was the father of the baby Ms. Hunter had with Mr. Edwards — was, in effect, a political donation.
To bring criminal charges, prosecutors had to show that the money was spent primarily to protect Mr. Edwards’s candidacy. In making his plea on Tuesday, Mr. Cohen said, outright, that his activity was to influence the election and that he did it at Mr. Trump’s direction.”
https://www.nytimes.com/2018/08/21/us/politics/cohen-trump-indicted.html
Though there are similarities, the cases are not the same. Again: “Mr. Cohen said, outright, that his activity was to influence the election and that he did it at Mr. Trump’s direction.”
The verdict of legal experts is more or less unanimous:
https://www.vox.com/2018/8/21/17765566/michael-cohen-plea-deal-trump-mueller
The Bradley Smith statement is from March and predates Cohen’s confession. Using it in the current situation is disingenuous.
This is the best account I’ve seen thus far:
With Michael Cohen’s Guilty Plea, President Trump Has Been Implicated in a Criminal Conspiracy
https://www.newyorker.com/news-desk/swamp-chronicles/the-president-has-been-implicated-in-a-criminal-conspiracy
“Mr. Cohen said, outright, that his activity was to influence the election and that he did it at Mr. Trump’s direction.”
Yes, Cohen figured he could get a better deal by implicating Trump. That doesn’t make it a fact.
Do you concede then that without this statement from Cohen there is no campaign finance violation?
The donors in the Edwards case were declared by FEC as not having committed a campaign finance violation, and if Cohen wasn’t staring at 50 years in prison for tax evasion, he would have fought the campaign finance violation charges and won. The other charge is also questionable. By this logic Avenatti could be charged for the Anderson Cooper interview of Stormy Daniels.
No, because there’s other evidence that Trump broke election law by paying hush money. And we haven’t even started on the fact that he knew about the Russian meeting at TT and didn’t call the FBI, which is, of course, collusion.
If Trump had listed the payment on campaign finance disclosures, avoiding the current claim of a campaign finance violation that liberals are jumping on to ‘Get Trumpf’, then the pundits would claim this was an illegal campaign expense for a personal expenditure, paying to keep an affair quiet, and all the liberals would jump on board and insist that was the case, to “Get Trumpf”.
He’s a fucking crook, Mike. Like his associates. Deal with it. Instead of making endless pathetic excuses for the man.
Rash assertion, especially when there is nothing Cohen or his lawyer have said that supports it.
If Cohen’s act was really a campaign finance violation, why didn’t Mueller keep it the way he kept Manafort? Why did he feel the need to hand it off, when the 2016 campaign is more relevant to special counsel remit than bank fraud and tax fraud?
It *was* a campaign finance violation. Reality check, Mike. The verdicts are in. Come on.
It is interesting how the conspiratorial minded jump to make assertions that the verdict doesn’t mean what the verdict actually means, and that there has to be some mysterious force that caused a result they said wasn’t possible.
When did the right decide they don’t like either the Constitution or due process?
A slippery slope that might have started when the right decided it didn’t like science. I leave it to future PhD candidates in Applied Bullshit to sort out the causal chain 🙂
“Yes, Cohen figured he could get a better deal by implicating Trump. That doesn’t make it a fact.”
Show evidence that Cohen said, “I could get a better deal by implicating Trump.” Conspiratorial mind-reading, “Cohen figured,” doesn’t work.
“Do you concede then that without this statement from Cohen there is no campaign finance violation?”
No. Uninvolved observers don’t know what evidence the raids got , but Cohen does. There is, of course, the possibility that Cohen is confessing to something he knows the prosecutors already know. This is fairly standard procedure. As BBD wrote, there’s other corroborating evidence, and this would also include statements by Giuliani and the released tape. The idea that Cohen’s payment of hush money at that particular time wasn’t made to influence the election is absurd.
“If Cohen’s act was really a campaign finance violation, why didn’t Mueller keep it the way he kept Manafort?”
One reason could be to avoid that Trump corruptly used his pardon authority to save himself. Even if Trump succeeds in eliminating Mueller, he’s still stuck, and I imagine his lawyers have informed him of this.
Trump can still pardon. It’s still a federal case. SDNY is federal.
And that makes it all okay.
Dear God.
Sadly, it is believable that it isn’t just the local conspiracy lover that thinks none of these prosecutions are justified so pardons should be done to restore justice.
No sense of responsibility, no sense of justice. That’s what happens when you push false stories of evil doing by HRC (and her foundation), then have real wrongdoing discovered on your side. (And, when you’re still butthurt that a black man was allowed to walk into the front door of the White House, and perform better than his predecessor and successor, it must really sting.)
While I don’t think pardons are a ridiculous idea, that wasn’t my point.
Read it in context, what was being replied to.
So, MikeN has given up attempts to equate Edwards and Trump. He has no evidence that Cohen dishonestly implicated Trump. His claim, “without this statement from Cohen there is no campaign finance violation,” is only meaningful if one is prepared to ignore all of the other evidence, including the fact that Trump has retreated from his original denials and changed his story several times. Proof doesn’t have to consist of one conclusive piece of evidence, but can also be various pieces of evidence that fit together and form a cogent whole. In this case it seems that prosecutors have both.
I made a mistake regarding the jurisdiction of this specific Cohen case, but the bigger picture is that Trump could be prosecuted at the state level, so his pardon power has limited value. This and other problems related to a presidential pardon are described in this article:
https://www.vox.com/2018/6/1/17413062/trump-pardon-dsouza-manafort-mueller-cohen
And one more thing: I didn’t mention that handing the case over to prosecutors in New York was a way of avoiding political attacks on the Mueller investigation. In light of the obsequiousness and contortional dishonesty of Trump’s supporters, this is an unfortunate but necessary consideration.
MikeN’s way of reacting is pathological. He’s incapable of acknowledging that his arguments can’t be substantiated. He ignores rebuttals and simply moves to a new line of defense. In this respect, he’s as slimy as Trump.
Finally, the Obama and Trump campaign finance violations are not comparable.
“…while the Obama campaign’s violations were serious, they fall into a category that campaign finance lawyers call routine violations, said Larry Noble, who served as the FEC’s general counsel from 1987 to 2000. These violations would be a failure to file reports in a timely fashion or inadvertent receipt of excessive contributions. But the violations Cohen admitted to in court, of which he likely has evidence, are not routine; they are admitted felonies.
“The Obama campaign was not found to have “knowingly and willfully” violated campaign finance law while Cohen admitted to the court that he did “knowingly and willfully” break the law and that Trump directed him to do so. Whether or not something is done knowingly and willfully is what separates an improper action from being a civil infraction or a criminal law violation.”
https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/donald-trump-felony-campaign-finance_us_5b7dae00e4b0348585fcea35?guccounter=1
What was obvious before is even more obvious now: Trump is the boss who demands omertà:
“Some legal experts said the president’s words and his view on the predicaments of members of his inner circle were striking for their similarity to the culture of organized crime.
“By crediting Paul Manafort for not ‘breaking’ and chastising Michael Cohen for showing an interest in cooperating, he’s really adopting the language and the sentiment of prizing what the mob would call a ‘stand-up guy’ — someone who takes your rap and goes to jail because of your loyalty to the mob, rather than to your own family,” said Daniel S. Goldman, a former federal prosecutor who worked on organized crime cases in the Southern District of New York. “The parallel is to a mob boss who expects the loyalty oath from his soldiers.””
There are a couple of other things that are interesting here. One is Trump’s assertion that Manafort is being treated worse than Al Capone, which isn’t a comparison most people would make, and suggests Trump’s ties to organized crime. The other is Trump’s growing tendency to accuse his legal adversaries of McCarthyism. This is especially delectable because Trump’s most notable mentor was Roy Cohn, who as a young lawyer was McCarthy’s henchman and whose later clients included prominent mobsters.
“It was a fucking crime, you muppet. Cohen was found guilt of election tampering in 2016 – and stated that he was ordered to do it by Trump. Can’t you understand even the simplest things?”
You could at least give my muppet a name, Your Squireship.
“If it was a crime for Cohen to arrange the payments, it was a crime for Trump to instruct him to do so. QED.”
You are a collection of unbridled ignorance. The Judas’ payments were not
illegal nor a campaign violation. It is a not violation to speak with foreigners;
foreigners can even work for an election campaign as long as there is no
payment nor other forms of compensation.
Furthermore blokie, another person is not guilty of a violation because
of an association; but then that is the mentally of the collectivist mind.
You clearly need more work to become a legal scholar; maybe with the

I’ve got a theory about that name Yaxley_Lennon has adopted . Cheers if you can find time to reply.
Well, there was the Tom Robinson Band, back in the 80s, but I can’t really see the connection?
Thanks for replying to unusual query BBD.
Always happy to help where I can – curious to know your theory about ‘Tommy Robinson’ though…
I find it extraordinarily coincidental that it’s the same name as the oppressed, falsely accused, in To Kill a Mockingbird.
Is it now? I haven’t read that in decades – didn’t remember the name. Interesting. Thanks. Not sure our ‘Tommy’ has ever read a book, mind you.
It’s only a theory and I could be wrong. But because all the little shitbags feel so oppressed all the time it sorta makes sense to choose a name that is publically identified with oppression. He coulda chosen Anne Frank as a name.

Cosmiccomics, kudos to you for understanding my comment about pardons, unlike some of the others.
A reasonable point about wanting to avoid the attacks on Mueller, but in that case Manafort should have been handed off too. It is possible his links with all these intelligence types would fit into the Russian interference in elections.
“A reasonable point about wanting to avoid the attacks on Mueller, but in that case Manafort should have been handed off too.”
No. According to your logic Mueller should hand off everything, thereby neutering the investigation. This, I believe is the end you want – not justice, but a subversion of justice that protects Trump. Because of the perverse state of American politics Mueller has to both prove the validity of the investigation, which he’s done by getting a jury to convict Manafort, and make sure that a political decision to end the Mueller Investigation doesn’t end the investigative process. The threat against the investigation appears to be growing because it’s gotten results and now constitutes a threat to Republican positions of power. Also, after a period of decline, popular support for the investigation is increasing,

Nah. Lindsey Graham is just mad at how much Jeff Sessions isn’t allowing open borders. He is better known as Senator Grahamnesty.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dmytro_Firtash
Dmytro Firtash is a pro-Russian Ukrainian oligarch who has retained Lanny Davis as a registered foreign agent.
He is wanted in the US on what appear to be trumped up charges, but I am not familiar with how much the US cares about bribery by foreigners in other countries, as Firtash is accused. Spain also wants him for extradition.
Lanny Davis is working for Michael Cohen pro bono. Thus a zealous prosecutor could argue that pro-Russian oligarch Dmytro Firtash is paying for Michael Cohen’s legal defense. Since Trump has filed papers for 2020, this would constitute paying money to influence a federal election by pro-Russian oligarch Dmytro Firtash.
Lanny Davis probably hasn’t committed crimes for which he would serve decades in prison. But let’s say prosecutors have him followed, and he is caught on a trip from meeting with Michael Cohen in New York to a trip in DC to talk with officials about pro-Russian oligarch Dmytro Firtash going 76 on I-95. This carries a maximum sentence of one year in jail. Prosecutors could then charge Davis with this and whatever else they have on him, and then reach a plea where Lanny confesses to campaign finance violations, specifically assisting pro-Russian oligarch Dmytro Firtash in the influencing of a federal election.
The charge itself is ridiculous, but the prosecutor would then have additional charges to place against Firtash and a stronger case for a successful extradition.
Oh FFS give it a rest Mike.
Cohen is guilty. Trump is guilty. End fucking of. Okay?
You spin conspiracy after conspiracy and cling to the shot-to-hell nunes memo, and claim other things are ridiculous?

Furthermore, if I falsely charged you, then please forgive me.
