Alarming Details Emerge of Michael Cohen 'Singing' to Special Counsel

Linkedin Share

For those of us already dealing with ulcers and anxiety over the investigation being undertaken by Robert Mueller, the following news will only cause us to reach for our Tums and Valium.

Michael Cohen, former lawyer to the President, is apparently cooperating with Robert Mueller’s “witch hunt” investigation of the bizarre #RussiaGate conspiracy.  In fact, “cooperating” may be understating the issue.  In all actuality, it sounds more like Michael Cohen is practically singing to him.

President Donald Trump’s former personal attorney, Michael Cohen, has participated over the last month in multiple interview sessions lasting for hours with investigators from the office of special counsel, Robert Mueller, sources tell ABC News.

The special counsel’s questioning of Cohen, one of the president’s closest associates over the past decade, has focused primarily on all aspects of Trump’s dealings with Russia — including financial and business dealings and the investigation into alleged collusion with Russia by the Trump campaign and its surrogates to influence the outcome of the 2016 presidential election, sources familiar with the matter tell ABC News.

Investigators were also interested in knowing, the sources say, whether Trump or any of his associates discussed the possibility of a pardon with Cohen.

This is the last thing that President Trump wants, and not because he’s guilty of attempting to collude with Russia.  For all intents and purposes, the nation must presume innocence here until given reason not to.

No, the concern is the ever-expanding scope of Robert Mueller’s investigation, and how Cohen’s deep ties to Citizen Trump could open the President up for litigation on any number of subjects, thusly proving the continued insinuation that this entire debacle is nothing more than a witch hunt meant to delegitimize the President, rather than the intense and focused investigation that the nation was looking for.

I doubt that the song of a rat is very pleasing on the ears, but it seems to suit Robert Mueller just fine.
