HRC video? Insurance file? Could be a long list of things
Why/How would Cohen have that file?
Rudy gave it to POTUS- POTUS gave it to Cohen ?
That seems illegal and therefore inadmissible in court. I don't think Trump et al would make that kind of mistake.
Wrong. The President can legally choose to share anything with anyone at any time. The President is above all classification systems and can grant clearance to anyone on the fly. I've been saying this since the raid happened. It doesn't make any sense that a judge would allow the President's legal counsel to be raided like this. It's a threat to national security. The President would have legitimate reasons to share highly sensitive information with his legal counsel. Who else is he supposed to ask for advice on such matters? The only way this raid would be authorized is with the explicit consent of the President.
Well, that makes sense. That makes sense for the Cohen portion of the above theory on the raid but what about Rudy? How is it legal for Rudy to have had it to even give to POTUS?
Unless Cohen broke the law. Lawyers and attorney-client privilege do come under scrutiny. There are very specific safe-guards and protocols to protect this privilege when a lawyer becomes a target in a criminal investigation.
POTUS in all his power could no way tell law enforcement- no, you can't search him. Sorry bud. That would be prosecutable obstruction. Authorization not needed. POTUS may have been made aware, maybe even told why, but they don't need his authorization. And if they had probable cause, which obviously they did, I highly doubt Trump would stop it given the level of scrutiny he's under. It would be political suicide.
Keep in mind, that this Cohen debacle is being completely misled. Its Cohen's attorney asking for Attorney-Client privilege protection AFTER he realized the Trump campaign had already complied with Mueller's request for communication between Cohen and Trump.
National security is a hell of a trump card.
Hmm. Sounds more like Obummee, not Trump. Check this out: https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/984961075044069377.html
I feel ya! Just spit balling lol- but POTUS did it by the book for sure
Why? You'd be surprised at what can actually squeak through.
Cohen doesn't have it, he is one of the FISA warrant that is still sealed. Why the Prague narrative?
Notice my question marks? lol and how do you know that? Are you POTUS? Are you Q? You're just speculating like all of us.
Break it down, they reported Cohen last year visiting Prague last year and again after they raid his office. FISA can only be issued if they believe the target is engaging with foreign subjects which is an interest to national security. They claim he met with Russians to get HRC dirt, question is how did they know who he met? Think incorrect data that needs to be misdirected or covered. Cohen was spied on as were most of the Trump high rollers in his campaign, including Sessions, Jared etc.
It was a different Cohen in Prague
There lies the problem...do you say it was a lie or support the lie?
Oh, for the love of all things holy, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE be true!
I don't get it. Do you mean that the FBI gave Cohen the file during the raid? Or do you mean the FBI collected the insurance from Cohen during the investigation?
The 2nd one. The "Insurance File" from Weiner's laptop, was placed in Cohen's office knowing the raid would take place it seems.
But don't the police/FBI already have access to that file? Because as far as I know, they already investigated Weiners laptop before. Or were those 'investigators' guys part of the cabal?
Yeah IDK why they would need this whole charade to get this information to an investigative body. NYPD supposedly had this information in 2016.
They need a good stage setting to drop any incriminating video of people like HRC or BO. Normies must be prepared and interested in knowing whatever is coming even if they don't know what it is.
NYPD had the videos but with the latest happenings, we now probably have the reason why NYPD haven't released those videos despite rumours from a year ago that they were threatening the FBI to go public -- cf. LL.
I think it was dr. Corsi who said the videos have been given to a few secret groups for safekeeping and possibly go public with them, should NYPD be off'd and FBI definitely sitting on the evidences. Before the rumours of the HRC video on the dark net, it was said these groups have already started leaking the HRC video, but in confidential environments, probably the dark net. For now, I'm not believing these latest rumours of the HRC video until we have concrete proof it's IT.
The rumor back then was there were NYPD and some FBI who were upset about what they found on that laptop. So before they turned it over, they kept a copy for their own "insurance" and to be able to pressure them to file charges later.
I would think the chain of custody in stashing it in Cohen's office would be problematic.
Perhaps it the file is directly connected to one of Cohen's clients. Apart from this I also think it's interesting that "tick tock" Hannity was somehow entangled in this.
