Real live sh*t storm brewing just off the coast ya'll...
NYT:
That clown is never gonna get out of the bushes :laughingphil:
Trump could pardon him because he would be tried in federal court but Schneiderman before he got railroaded was trying to ensure that NY state could side step double jeopardy laws and prosecute Cohen for the same offenses in state court if Trump tried to pardon him.If anything, that’s the smoke signal, from Maggie. I’m sure she has been in constant contact with her friends......I mean sources in the administration, maybe even Donald himself. I thought that these were state charges, so he couldn’t be pardoned.
Trump is going crazy right now. He's definitely trying to reach out to him. Expect another pardon soon.
Cohen is going to be under federal charges - some of which will include wire fraud, campaign contribution violations, etc. He will have some federally pardonable offenses.Trump wouldn't be able to pardon him unless he gets federal charges. IIRC everything Cohen is going through is at the state level.

That is the reason they got Schneiderman out of the paint yet no one seems to be talking about that anymore but they will when Cohen gets indicted - more than likely this Friday.
We don't know where the new AG is on the plan, I assume that's intentional, but as it stands now NY state could only prosecute him on state charges at that point. He couldn't be prosecuted on any of the federal charges after being pardoned for them.Trump could pardon Cohen but that shyt ain’t gonna save him because then pardon is for federal only.. NY will be in the cut regardless to spank Cohen properly and Trump can’t save him
SO yeah at this point it don’t matter Cohen is fukked either way
One of the great tag team ban bets of all time!
It all started because I_Got_The_Bushes thought me and @The Black Panther were the same person and wanted to ban us both. :snapmjlol:
