        So...I’m confused. When this was first reported. Lanny acted like that didn’t come from them. I also figured it was a leak from Trumps team. The fuck is going on and why would Lanny get word from Cohen about this. Or is Mike worried about his Russian friends coming for him?

        Burr and Warner asked if Cohen stands by his SSCI testimony, which conflicts with this.

        At this point. Anyone around Trump isn’t credible. At least Mueller’s team gets to look at actual evidence while we lowly people get gaslit by the fucking President and his goons.pic.twitter.com/oLm70S6MGx

        How do you feel about the theory that Lanny Davis is there to regulate what Cohen reveals at the directive of Firtash, whom a apparently represented legally? Is it crazy, or just crazy enough?

        I'm not exactly sure what Lanny Davis is doing. He also claimed Weisselberg was "Executive-1" in the SDNY filing, then half-retracted it, and then turned out to be right. I'm not sure I would treat the walk-backs with any more credulity than the original claims.

        I noticed right after Davis made this claim a GoFundMe was set up for Cohen. I wonder if they’re connected.

        I am now 50 years old, and for going on 10 years... I've increasingly looked forward to most septuagenarians going to pasture. I truly never thought I would feel this way.

        Is it possible that someone whispered to Lanny that if he wants any prayer at a deal from the SC that he better clam up?
