Michael Cohen takes witness stand

Former Attorney and fix it man, Michael Cohen took this wittiness stand in the election fraud case of the state vs former President Donald J Trump.

Cohen, who was convicted  for perjury in previous testimonies served prison time is considered along with Adult actress, Stormy Daniels key witnesses against the former President claiming he funneled money to pay off the actress who was going to the National Enquirer newspaper a story about claiming to having sex with the then candidate Donald Trump within months of the election and was going to be reimbursed by Trump as a business expense skirting campaign election laws and was convicted of crimes related to them.

Under cross examination Mr Cohen admitted he took money from the Trump organization for hiring a research group and pocketed the difference and kept it for himself, essentially stealing the difference and not reporting the difference for himself.

He justified it was by believing it owed to him for not getting a bonus for work he did for the Trump organization for earlier work.

Trump’s defense team got Cohen to admit he’s profited from his association by authoring several books, a podcast, a Television deal and writing another book.

The trial continues, we’ll see what comes next.

He would further this practice over the years to place many of these businesses( including golf courses  into this LLC where the Chicago property to cite even more losses that ranged into the millions.

He is essentially accused of double-dipping

Eric Trump, The President’s son claims this has come up again because his Father ran for office and has already been resolved

This issue has come back to scrutiny based on a recent report published by the New York Time and Pro Publico recently

We’ll see what comes of this…

Donald Trump gets a 175 million dollar business preserver!

Former President Donald J Trump gets a loan for 175 million dollar loan from Billionaire Don Hankey. Don Hankey, is chair and majority shareholder of Knight Specialty Insurance Inc. The company successes is based underwriting high risk loans for individuals who cannot get loans from traditional lenders. Trump’s loan was exactly what Hankley says is “what we do”.

We’ll see what happens next from here on.

Trump catches a break..he owes only 175 million now!

A New York Appellate court has lowered the amount of money owes the state of New York  to 175 million dollars as ordered by Judge Arthur Engoron.

Trump claims the original fine of 464 million dollars was virtually impossible to secure funding from any entity in the financial community.

The original fine of 464 million dollars is still in effect has not been lowered as it still accrues interest daily.

He (Trump) still has 10 days to secure the 175 million dollars  and he says he will comply.

Donald J. Trump needs cash………Fast!

Former President and self-professed Billionaire Donald J Trump needs cash and in a hurry.

He lost in a civil fraud trial in the state of New York where he was convicted of Tax evasion and other crimes in the state.

With fines and interest he owes the state of New York roughly around one-half billion dollars.

He tells the court he doesn’t have that amount of cash available.

The New York State Attorney General, Letitia James has vowed that if Trump does not pay at the appointed time, the State will start seizing his assets to pay the fines levied against him.

Time is Mr Trump’s enemy not his ally.

Trump is trying his tried and true strategy of seeking delays and “buying time” as he has done in the past, but this strategy may not work.

This may mark the beginning of the end of the, “Trump empire” as the wold has come to know it. Only time will tell and we’ll see what it says.

Jury Awards E. Jean Carroll $83 Million in Trump Defamation Case

The Groovisphere is incredulous but not surprised by this verdict! This is truly poetic justice. The Groovisphere guesses the former President hasn’t learned that if you’re in a hole and you want  to get out, stop digging!

Why does Donald Trump think he can continue to make defamatory remarks either  spoken or in print  and believes he can get away with it.

A Federal NY Jury has found former President Donald J. Trump of further defaming E.Jean Carroll again and has awarded more damages for a new total of 83.3 million dollars.

It took them (the jury) less than three hours to reach and render the verdict.

Maybe an expensive lesson, that he’s brought upon himself will finally silence him. Maybe he should have paid attention to what happened to his crony Rudy Giuliani.

As we are not surprised, Trump plans to appeal.

And the Republican party wants to fast track him to be the presumptive nominee to be their candidate for President. Wow!
