      Lawyer thinks Cohen trove may include info on two of Schneiderman's victims. What ISN'T in Cohen's files, really?https://twitter.com/big_cases/status/994960645509533698 …

      Seems reasonably clear Cohen was going to use the accusers’ stories to blackmail Schneiderman. If you’re following at home, it would also mean Trump was aware and green-lighted it. Cohen wouldn’t make moves like this independent of the boss. He’s not smart or tough enough to.

      Of course he isn’t; he’s a piece of shit. The point is there’s only one way this would go; Cohen tries to be a poor man’s mobster & blackmail an NYAG. The protective order attempt is in place to beard that. I hope Kimba Wood isn’t hearing any of it.

      that's patently absurd. the communications in question happened in 2013, years before schneiderman opened an investigation into trump's foundation. if trump was blackmailing shcneiderman, he was doing a very bad job of it.

      Tell me, so why the protective order? I’ll wait.

      did you read it? it's to prevent outing two women who complained that shcneiderman assaulted them, whose names still aren't public
