It certainly isn't that you've not engaged in actively lying...

In other words, Sarah Sanders prefers liars who haven't been convicted yet.

I watched much of Michael Cohen's testimony today, when I could. Much of what I did see was unilluminating, although not unimportant. The best questioner - by far - I saw was Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. I'll try to link it. She was sharp, succinct and focused, and, most important, elicited important information. She put most of the lawyers on the panel to shame, and not by a little. link. it's short. You should watch it.

I came away with the same thoughts. She is no flash-in-the-pan accident - we might have a new super leader to guide the transition.

The opposition is disintegrating, I am predicting that by the time a vote comes around to override Trump's veto of the Fake Wall Emergency that the votes will be there. The RFS Trump has hit the iceberg.

Did you get a load of Gosar's inept and embarrassing tirade against The Fixer? And his "Liar, Liar, pants on Fire" sign? That's AOC's opposition...

Meanwhile, King Kon is 0 for 2 with the dark-comic NoKo super villain.

I saw AOC and agree. 5 minutes ... succinct ... no irrelevant harangue

The impression I got about Republican attorneys was in their previous experience as attorneys, they must have been limited to jaywalking cases.

Exactly the impression I got!

I watched Michael Cohen's testimony (well, a lot of it). Anyway, Mr. Cohen was selling access to Jackass. I think I remember one report that he got 200,000.00 from a Saudi amongst others. I did not, however, hear anybody ask the question, ie. "Did you give any part of the money you received for access, to Mr. Trump". If he did, and it could be proved, Jackass is GONE!

I have probably mentioned this before but those in charge of criminal enterprises ALWAYS get a little "taste". I don't think Jackass is any different.

So, it just might be possible that someone is going to ask him this question. If it's in closed session, it might mean that proof of this already exists and is so damning as to be downright frightening to a great many in the Senate.
It is entirely possible that a great many in the Senate have been playing Cohen's game right alongside him.
I don't have the least bit of trouble imagining Mitch McConnell selling access to Trump.

Limbaugh loved to rail about Clinton's selling access but apparently hypocrisy rules, as it is ok for Republicans or more pointedly, Trump supporters, to do the same.

Who would have thunk it???
