Per the article: "The special counsel’s office learned about Trump’s directive for Cohen to lie to Congress through interviews with multiple witnesses from the Trump Organization and internal company emails, text messages, and a cache of other documents. Cohen then acknowledged those instructions during his interviews with that office." - its not just what Cohen said.
And all of this evidence is sitting where?

Concentration camps? Reeducation camps, so that they can all learn to think "just like you"? That sort of jail?
Tell me, what's their crime--other than daring to disagree with your infinite wisdom??
I love it when people rip me for using Gateway Pundit as a source, but then they turn around and cite someone like Buzzfeed, which has been caught pushing phony stories before.

While he is running for office he murders someone if they do not find out he did it till after he takes oath of office then they need to waitf till he leaves office to charge him for murder and no murder that happens before he is in office is not an impeachable offence. To be impeached he needs to have committed high crimes or misdemeanors while in office. Now telling Cohen not to speak on certain subjects to Congress he had every right it's called attorney client privilege and is what that boot Cohen should have been telling Congress . It's why if you arrested and you go to a meeting room with your lawyer to discus your case they are not allowed to film or record your meeting because it is privileged communication and can not be used against you in court.
But if Cohen actually has this on tape it's a whole different situation.

There's a big difference between telling someone not to talk about it, and telling someone to lie about it. Words matter.

Many of my posts in this thread were hyperbolic, and given to logical leaps that were not delineated. Several poster have pointed out that I can and should do better. I will endeavor to do so.
There’s a place for hyperbole. Used judiciously, it can help get a point across memorably (and used injudiciously, it can be hilarious – think of Monty Python’s Four Yorkshiremen sketch). But when it’s overdone, it can make the user appear hysterical, ridiculous, or even sarcastic...

What's the difference with pleading the fifth and not answering a question?

My old man told me to take a long walk off a short pier once. I disappointed him.
