when he s talking about sanctions, so russia has him compromised on that, too. i mean, the secret moscow deal is damning enough. it s damning enough that a criminal cover-up effort is launched. that includes the president s lawyer, at least him, lying to congress under oath about the deal. congressman jim himes from the intelligence committee was here last night and told us that it might not just be michael cohen who is in on the cover-up. congressm congressmanhe himes telling us there were not a lot of inconsistencies on the issue of trump tower moscow. meaning a lot of people under oath on the intelligence committee told the same story as michael cohen and michael cohen just pled guilty to a felony because his story was a lie. if other people were telling the same lie about the secret moscow deal, if other people were organized so that they would all tell the same lie, all of those people will not only be in trouble themselves and soon, since the transcripts of their
more scheme right before mike flynn was fired, right at the start of the trirnump administration. they were involved in a scheme to cook up yet another plan to get rid of russian sanctions. remember this story, felix sater and michael cohen involved in the secret peace deal scheme, which was really a proposal to give ukraine over to russia and drop the russian sanctions anyway. what were felix sater and michael cohen doing working on something like that? do felix sater and michael cohen scream international diplomacy and peace making to you? those guys those guys wouldn t even say that about themselves. but, yeah, it was those guys working on this plan to drop russian sanctions, because those guys were the ones who were making the trump moscow project happen, too. and to make that come true, it would need financing from that russian state-owned bank controlled by putin, and that couldn t happen until u.s. sanctions on russia were dropped. so the real estate guys start working on drop
they re good at smearing people, they re good at pushing hate and conspiracies. when it gets into a legal forum with mueller, prosecutorprosecu confessions, plea agreements, conservative media can t do anything and they re not able to do anything. he might be looking ahead and saying, wait a minute, when mueller delivers the goods, this isn t working. i need something else. this is an awful week for me. fox was very good at pointing out what s happening. he presented the facts. right. you re seeing at least on the conservative social media, michael cohen, it was clearly no collusion. they re saying, clearly mueller would have delivered the goods. right. the trials and how can you talk about american media right now? you re talking about the responsibility of our colleagues and how we re telling the story and i think we need to have a conversation about the fact that all of us right now are
the press can be gnats and annoying. he didn t stand up for khashoggi and he s not standing up here saying, i don t like what cnn international is putting out but i i m glad they re doing it. he s not upset about the portrayal of the united states in the media, he s upset about the portrayal of him. him. i need a larger instrument. something isn t working. the cohen story was a disaster. the russia stories were disasters. if we have fox news, we will be fine. we have our own facts. i think the cohen story this week showed that s not true and i think the cohen story was just a taste of what mueller is going to deliver with the final report and indictment and fox was completely impotent this week in trying to debunk, you know, the russia stories, try to change the narrative.
