Love how you believe the parts of his testimony that serve your narrative.

Kind of blows the whole dossier narrative, eh?

No, that means that one detail in the dossier might be wrong.

Which makes a lot more of it wrong.

Maybe, maybe not. It is raw intelligence. It's what spies send in from the field before the analysts in Washington assess it, verify it, and form a narrative. Which is what Mueller is doing right now.

See...and that is a problem.
The information in the dossier was used in a FISA warrant request, or several of them. When making such a request, those who sign are saying the information is true and verified. But, you can see it wasn't.
And, it is not Mueller's job to do that..... it should have been done long ago.
Now you are starting to understand why this whole Russian investigation should have never been opened.

I think you need to do a little fact checking of your own.

Fact checked.

"Michael Cohen, President Donald Trump's former longtime personal attorney and fixer, pleaded guilty in federal court on Thursday to a single count of making false statements to Congress about a project to build a Trump Tower in Moscow."

Yes? And, the project to build the Trump Tower in Moscow was not illegal or wrong.
Cohen lied about it.... THAT was wrong.

You think he took the initiative to lie about it? If Trump was t the

If Trump wasn’t the one who guided the lying that means he wasn’t really in charge of rogue actions on his staff. So he’s a bad manager. You choose which one of those scenarios to believe.

Sounds like you don’t want the truth exposed. What are you afraid of?

The dossier was PART of what was used for the FISA warrant. And if there was no "there" there, the FISA wouldn't have been extended, not once, but three times. Really, if you can't see how the story has evolved from "no dealing with Russia" to "so what, we like borsch" over the past 2 years, then I can't help you. Seriously, there were over 100 known contacts between team Trump and Russians in 2015-2016 concurrent with a lot of shady stuff related to the campaign and election. It is all documented including in many federal incitments. Do you really not see that?

I think we already know he’s a bad manager.

Jamie Raskin put it best: Republicans aren’t upset Cohen lied to Congress for the president, they’re upset he stopped lying to Congress for him.

The truth?
The truth is that this whole RUSSIA investigation was opened for one reason. And, it wasn't because the Trump campaign was colluding with Russia.
There were a few people in leadership positions who were upset at the outcome of the election.

I expect the leadership of the FBI to know the law and follow the law. Is that too much to ask?

Is it too much to ask that a president and his administration not be rife with ethics violations, shadiness, and outright criminal activities?

Spoiler alert: They do know it and follow it.

Today, Cohen testifies before the House Intelligence committee. Topic is Russia.
Today should have been the one that is televised, but it is a closed hearing.

Then you haven't read the indictments and sentencing documents. If you had, you wouldn't come to this conclusion.

--Michael Cohen

You don't see that for what it is? Really? Do you think there has been a peaceful transition of power since Clinton lost?

Did a war break out that I’m unaware of? Interrupting Sarah Sander’s burrito isn’t exactly a civil war inciting offense. Did the joint chiefs seize the White House while I was napping?

Do you believe this transition of power has been peaceful?

DP. Yes, absolutely.

Do you feel that Trump stole the election through collusion with Russia?

I don't know. I think that we want to find out, and Trump and the GOP are doing their damndest to stop that from happening. I find that suspicious.

Did you find Cohen's testimony a bit to 'pat'?

I found him believable based on what I know about Trump so far.

I rest my case
