If this other thing I'm hearing about Cohen and RUS folks is true, Trump is going to shoot blood from his...wherever...very soon now.

Whispers about this have popped up in the past years as more and more people start digging around.

The thought of Cohen negotiating with a Russian organized crime group is confusing me. Cohen doesn't seem all that bright to me. And he was only involved with dt in a very minor way.

that was like the Copacabana for the Russian Mob in the 90's (when Rudy was chasing down La Cosa Nostra and making way for the Russians to take over) ... which was owned by his Father in it's hey-day as Mob Central.
He's been in deep with the Russian Mob most of his life. Not a coincidence he's Dump's bagman.

Hope they are true.
Certainly not contrary to what we are finding out about Cohen.

(13,520 posts)14. D'oh! - I just came here to post THIS Jay Mc tweet!:
I don't know a Semion Mogilevich."
-Michael Cohen
Yet...
"In the early 1980s, Semion Mogilevich became affiliated with the Solntsevskaya Organization."https://data.occrp.org/documents/2573023?documentq=solntsevskaya%20#page=4&mode=view
So what was Trump's personal fixer, Michael Cohen, doing with the Solntsevskaya in Moscow in 2013?

For others that may be in the same boat. Learn something new here often.

Once Trump gets his new SCOTUS pick though, his removal becomes much more difficult if not impossible.
