Conspiracy to commit a crime is a separate crime from the illegal activity you are conspiring about. Conspiracies involve two or more people. So prosecutors have concluded that Cohen committed crimes under direction of Individual 1. Therefore Individual 1 has committed the crime of conspiracy. |

| footnote 2: Cohen now admits he "conferred" with Trump "about contacting the Russian government" before Cohen used a radio interview to suggest meeting with Trump and Putin. |

Most of what they got from Cohen probably came from the documents they seized during the search. |

Oh my. Sounds like Individual 1 has legal problems too... |

They're too busy worrying about the Honduran woman who had a baby on US soil. |

Even Fox News is covering the Cohen plea now. Although they're spinning it as Cohen's problem. Not Trump's. |

Cohen has a long pattern of criminal activity going back many years. Flynn was a clean military officer who seemed to go off the rails when he left DIA under a cloud. |

Tonight’s Mueller filing essentially destroys Trump world story that Special Counsel has only turned up old crimes unrelated to the President. Documents note Cohen contacts with WH and into 2017-2018. So they are awaiting instructions as to how to spin this. FOX is claiming it's Cohen's problem, but that doesn't mesh with the facts and footnotes of the filings. |

And Flynn appears to have cooperated right away (just how soon he did is still not public) while they had to break down multiple doors to get the stuff that Cohen had. |

Mueller says Cohen also provided the special counsel information about "certain discrete Russia-related matters core to its investigation" that he obtained by being in contact with Trump Organization executives.
What are these “discrete” matters? Think any of it involves $$ changing hands? |
