“Cohen agreed in his plea deal to not challenge any sentence from 46 to 63 months, according to the AP.”

Wonder what the sentencing range would have been without cthe plea

Duncan Hunter Jr. and his wife indicted for spending $250k in campaign funds on themselves.

Trump's 2nd congressional endorser joins his 1st under federal indictment.

Draining the swamp.

Quite a day

Lol the video is absolutely nothing

The bigger question is what will it be by December based on how much Cohen sings between now and then.

This was a good one. Included a shorts purchase at a golf club bc he was out of money and his wife texted him to buy it at the clubhouse so he could say its golf balls for the wounded troops (assuming it was a charity event). Also that he spent some of the money on a hotel room with INDIVIDUAL-14. Gonna go out on a limb and say that INDIVIDUAL-14 is not his named-in-the-indictment wife.

Omarosa is literally trolling Trump now. She said she released this video to show that Cohen was always around during the campaign including on plane rides because Trump will claim that he wasn't. That video was from Sept 2016.

The woman knows what she's doing.

That Lanny Davis interview with Rachel Maddow.

"Mr. Cohen has knowledge on certain subjects that should be of interest to the special counsel and is more than happy to tell the special counsel all that he knows, not just about the obvious possibility of a conspiracy to collude and corrupt the American democracy system in the 2016 election which the Trump Tower meeting was all about, but also knowledge about the computer crime of hacking and whether or not Mr. Trump knew ahead of time about that crime and even cheered it on."

I mean it is Lanny Davis and Michael Cohen so big grain of salt but man

Hey, if he can turn his 3-5 year sentence into 5 months, he'd be foolish not to.

Rep. Hunter seems kind of dumb in his approach to theft. His treasurer warned him, but Hunter promised that these were all legitimate. Everything from lavish vacations, to overdue dentist bills, to a ring pop. He dies, however, have the playbook: its all politically motivated. The reality check for Mr. Trump Caucus is that the prosecutor was appointed by Attorney General Jeff Sessions last year.

Here is the big conspiracy:

Hunter's team asked DOJ to recuse two prosecutors who they say attended a Clinton campaign event in La Jolla. According to letters to DOJ released by Hunter's team, US Attorney Adam Braverman determined recusal was not necessary.

Its always good when you overtly dip your hand in the water:

The congressman then insisted that his wife be named as his paid campaign manager -- over the objections of his treasurer -- because, according to the document, he said the family needed "the extra money that would come from her salary."

Who was the third guy to jump on the Trump bandwagon? What are the odds that he is dirty, and how soon will his name get put up in lights?

Well right, I mean go for it I hope he wins

Just he's going to need some of his famous tapes or some other decent corroborating evidence to make it look like he's not just making shit up to reduce his sentence

You have heard of him - Jeff Sessions

The next House member is also a hilarious one - Scott DesJarlais. He of being pro life but urging his mistress to get an abortion fame.

I'm not sure the guy who Putin poisoned in the UK would agree.

Rand Paul is a Russian stooge. I have no idea why this obvious fact isn't getting talked about more often. He's approaching Trump levels, just more quietly.

He's not a Russian stooge. He is, to use an old term linked to Russia, a useful idiot. Paul, like his father, walks the libertarian/paleocon line where he wants to be an isolationist and allow other nations to have their own spheres of influence. A world where we pull back from NATO and don't need to be involved in the middle east (never mind how many people are slaughtered or what the actual outcomes are) is a good one in his book. He does not want us sanctioning Russia because he thinks it is futile or ill advised for us to do so.

He's got a lot of overlap in his broad worldview with Mr. Trump. Both very much out of the mainstream of whatever the hell GOP foreign policy was supposed to be and still is largely with electeds, which is a) why the rare occasions when backbone appears v. Trump it is often on issues like this and b) why Rand is still a caucus of 1 in the Senate.

the new thing is that everyone breaks the law and they're going after trump unfairly for it

Scott Wagner won't release his tax returns because he doesn't want anyone to know how much money he makes:

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) - Republican gubernatorial candidate Scott Wagner said he will not release a tax return because his income is nobody else's business and he suggested that labor unions will use it to try to organize workers at the non-union waste-hauling business he owns.

Wagner made the comments in response to a questioner at a Monday night question-and-answer session in Erie in video captured by the Democratic Party.

Wagner has previously said that he would not release his tax return, despite most candidates for governor of Pennsylvania having released, when asked, part or all of their federal tax returns, going back at least two decades. But Wagner's explanation Monday night may be the most expansive reason he's given for keeping the information under wraps.

Wagner has reported more than 30 sources of income and is most prominently the president of the York-based waste hauler Penn Waste Inc., which reported $75 million in revenue last year. His statement of financial interest also hints at holdings in hotels, freight hauling, property and a diesel engine dealership, as well as dozens of debts.

If he wins the race for governor, Wagner has said he would keep his stake in Penn Waste, which is part of a waste-hauling industry that is heavily regulated by the state.
