Allen Weisselberg, President Trump’s longtime financial gatekeeper, was granted immunity by federal prosecutors for providing information about Michael Cohen in the criminal investigation into hush-money payments for two women during the 2016 presidential campaign, according to people familiar with the matter.

No wonder Trump wanted "flipping" to be illegal. He is KEY to any potential financial crimes in the Trump Org.

Cant wait for this to be blown up into a grand conspiracy about how Trump is finally done.

This is how I pictured Trump going down all along way back at the outset of the Mueller appointment. Trump and his businesses are shady AF and I've always thought he definitely did some borderline legal/illegal things in them.

But I'm glad we can all agree that the Mueller appointment was political BS now and you and everyone that supports him don't give a shite about Russian collusion but just want to find a crime somehow somewhere.

If this is true... Allen skates for telling about paid off GF's and Cohen does five years. Again, after HRC got caught paying women to come forward against Trump with sex scandals, more sex scandals that no one GAF about but progs like yourself. He is a billionaire he had sex who cares? The evangelicals didn't elect him because he was a Saint.

HRC will be crowned on CNN tonight @ 9PM.

You continue to post articles about immunity as if it's the start of something, rather than the end.

These people were all part of the information gathering that lead to Cohen's plea deal. You know this if you read the documents related to it. They are getting the immunity they were promised for cooperating in the Cohen investigation.

That dude knows where the bodies are buried. He's worked for the Trump organization back to when Fred Trump was in charge.

This is crossing the red line that Trump said he would not allow namely getting into his business before he was a candidate......

Its time for Trump after mid-terms to wipe Sessions, RR and ALL Obama dead wood out of D.C. including removing every security clearance in DOJ and FBI and..


Start anew with a whole new cast of characters taken from US Marshall Service.......

That guy knows where the bodies are buried and which closets hold the skeletons. Probably knows which Russian financiers have the Pumpkin by the balls.

I went over the federal election code last night. Maybe you in all of your wisdom can tell me how this is a violation because if it is a reported that this was done under the direction of Donald Trump who was at the time President of the the Trump Organization and Cohen was repaid by funds from the Trump Organization or even a shell corp associated with it, and Cohen being a VP of the Trump Organization, I'm not seeing how this would be a campaign finance violation.

Cohen was acting in his capacity as a lawyer for the organization. Paying off bimbos may be unseemly, but hardly illegal.....and even if it was found to be a violation, it's usually a civil fine....despite what Obama and his people did to D' Souza

Democrats and Republicans need to be very careful with this investigation getting insanely out of control.

You never want this type of off the rail prosecutorial power pointed at you....never.


They can make the best of us look like a felon.

Pardons vs immunity

Trump wants so bad to stifle Monafort he's hinting he likes him and that he's just a great guy who's being picked on.
Pardon is coming, just stfu. Nevermind the crimes. Nothing to see here.

I thought this investigation was supposed to be about Russian collusion.

79 people were granted immunity in the Hillary email deal, but that doesn't mean Hillary did anything illegal. but this guy being granted immunity to testify about Michael Cowen proves that Trump violated the law.

You liberals are truly morons.

Which has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with Russia!

By Any Means Necessary though.

Progressives like yourself have convinced yourself that Bob Mueller is the unelected and unaccountable Czar of The 4th Branch of Government. And that as we move from “ Russian collusion “ to “ obstruction of justice “ to “ campaign finance crimes” - all against the backdrop of IGNORING far worse on the other side, that we won’t realize that your entire premise is based on the simple fact that you guys truly believe the very act of being a Republican President is criminal. You simply refuse to share the country and honor its system of government.

And you guys are so drowning in hubris you think this is going to work out for you. That’s the amusing part.

Immunity from what crime?

So, basically a fishing expedition.
