Just heard on Fox. Didn't even go to trial and he already made a deal. I bet he sold his soul.

Cohen set to appear at 4PM in court today to strike a plea deal.

Trump's attorney Michael Cohen strikes a deal to plead GUILTY amid claims of $20 million fraud - meaning he could co-operate with Mueller.

Bottom line, it boils down to how dirty your shit is, how hard they squeeze, and how close  you are to the nucleus of what they want.

If the Feds have your balls in a vice over a 20 million dollar fraud scheme the smart play is to cooperate and get that sweet, sweet downward departure at sentencing...

The only thing this little dog and pony show demonstrates is that if the government wants to destroy your life, if they dig deep enough, they can probably find something on you to do it.

LOL, SDNY doesn't prosecute cases unless they can recover more than $1M.
Giving him a slap on the wrist plea gets Cohen off their books.
Another big nothingburger...

Why would this mean he’s going to start cooperating with Mueller?
Mueller referred it to the SDNY, and they are the ones who decided to prosecute.
Mueller has nothing to do with it now.

The fact that this scumbag lawyer was recording his calls with his high profile client without his consent or knowledge, says to me that he probably figured this day would come.

Agreed.  Manafort said hold my beer and watch this, got put in solitary, came out with prison tats and the jury appears to be coming to a conclusion but he's sitting tall.

Cohen dropped his lawsuit against Fusion GPS/Buzzfeed the moment he got hooked up and then started dumping recording and now has come to an agreement.  We'll see what that means in the long run.

About $30,000 - probably not enough for the SDNY to get involved.

Cohen's troubles were self-inflicted losses and fraud tied to his taxi-medallion business (leeching off government rents).

I'm not seeing how he could (legally) inflict any harm on Trump -- it's not like being convicted of bank fraud over taxi-medallion losses is going to give him free rein to break attorney-client privilege with his clients.  Trump wasn't a part of that business, so Cohen can't fall back on the legal-ethics exception to not being allowed to perpetrate crimes with clients.

It'll probably have something to do with his millions in N.Y. cab medallions.

They'll get him to give up something related to President Trump that will lead to "Muh Russia version 2.0".

And by Flynn's people right?  Because he *really* doesn't want to jail, right?  Otherwise, why would the government keep delaying such an open & shut case they'd get so many accolades for ending successfully?  Right?

"This is the fourth time sentencing has been delayed, even as Flynn’s team has signaled they are ready to conclude the case. In July, a lawyer for Flynn said the retired Army lieutenant general was “eager” to wrap up and proceed to sentencing." --some Fox news rag

Naturally they say it's because Flynn is still 'cooperating' with authorities, lol.  And I guess he is, insofar as the continued lack of dismissal resolution is a benefit to the Mueller team's continued existence.

Yup.

Probably won't deal with Ruskies - although I'm interested in the "campaign finance violations" that the media is currently reporting...

I wonder how quickly the Information and/or plea agreement gets filed so we can read it...
