    There you go: So Cohen set up a "consulting" business to trade on Trump influence, working out of Patton Boggs. The Patton Boggs big was mostly a hash: he didn't bring THEM (much) business. But it was a way to accept this $$.https://twitter.com/CNNPolitics/status/993974949370048512 …

        I'm guessing these files were partly liberated from there. And they were VERY cooperative w/SDNY. Tho, yeah, not a good look but influence is power.

        Plus I'm sure Cohen was so clear that the consultancy was NOT an affiliate of the firm

        This isn't just a Trump problem, it's a GOP problem. Vekselberg/Intrater, etc Russian oligarchs who funneled off-the-books money to Michael Cohen also gave over $10 million to GOP organizations/RNC. Including over $250k to Trump Inauguration Committee. https://twitter.com/OmarAslamLugo/status/951578119265124352?ref_src=twcamp%5Ecopy%7Ctwsrc%5Eandroid%7Ctwgr%5Ecopy%7Ctwcon%5E7090%7Ctwterm%5E3 …

        How did this guy go broke with everyday paying money to his firm to pay off Stormy Daniels? Is seems Michael Cohen was paid $2M to pay off Stormy $130K. I am confused!
