It says that it's involving the Cohen case, but I don't understand that. I mean, Cohen pled guilty,, so what else can they really do to the guy unless he lied.

I think it's about more than Cohen.

I can’t wait for the spin on this one.

Trump Organization CFO Allen Weisselberg gets immunity

Allen Weisselberg, longtime chief financial officer for the Trump organization, has been granted immunity by federal prosecutors for providing information about Michael Cohen, the Wall Street Journal reports.

Between the lines: This is a very significant story that’s already causing waves in the legal circles around the White House.

Why it matters: Unlike Cohen, who was involved in quixotic projects and sleazy side deals to hush up women, Weisselberg has true and deep visibility into the Trump Organization. Trumpworld’s greatest fear is that SDNY investigators start prying deeper into the president’s business affairs. Trump can’t shut down such an investigation by firing Robert Mueller. This one’s out of his hands.

The bottom line: If there are any fishy payments for any purpose going back decades, Weisselberg would know about them. That’s why Trumpworld is on high alert about this. Concerned texts are flying around now from sources in the President’s orbit.

The Trump Foundation's treasurer didn't know he was treasurer until investigators told him

Alan Weisselberg seemed to know he was the Trump Organization's CFO. But he could've listed another job on his resume, and he didn't even know it.

President Trump's longtime loyalist is also listed as the Donald J. Trump Foundation's treasurer, which would've held him accountable in a new lawsuit filed by the New York attorney general Thursday accusing the nonprofit of illicit spending. But Weisselberg wasn't aware of his position until a New York state investigator told him, The Washington Post reports.

New York Attorney General Barbara Underwood alleges in the lawsuit that, based on two years of investigation sparked by a Post investigation, the foundation was benefiting the Trump family instead of the public.

But first, Weisselberg told an investigator there wasn't a policy determining how the nonprofit spent its money, per the Post. The investigator then asked if Weisselberg knew he's been on the Trump Foundation's board for over a decade. He didn't.

Of course, it's hard to remember being on a board that hasn't met since 1999. Read more about the lawsuit at The Washington Post. Kathryn Krawczyk

He's not going down for Trump. The Trump family used his name on the foundation without him knowing and it looks like they (Trump and his 3 oldest kids) broke the law on a regular basis in managing the Foundation.

One of the reasons is that the Trump team could make out that Cohen isn't a very good witness as he has lied, pleaded guilty.
However, Cohen wasn't just a coffee boy and he had lots of evidence that could corroborate any testimony.
And Weisselberg, he worked for Trump Org for decades, worked for Trumps father. He knows were all the financial bodies are buried, the business deals and finances, he knows Trumps net worth, he did Trumps taxes for some years.

Weisselberg just found out after being told by investigators that he was the treasurer for the Trump foundation and was on the board of directors for 10 years. He had no clue. I would assume that the state/feds are looking at Trump and his kids for running a sham foundation and then all the other irregular business dealings

I Voted for Trump to be President and make this Country grow again, thrive again. I don't remember anyone saying they voted for Trump to be a role model for anyone. I don't remember anyone saying, "Oh, good, we can leave the kids home, put on the TV and let Trump raise them now!

The lies about Collusion and Obstruction are gone now so you are looking for crimes that Businessman Trump may have committed. So sad, such desperation.

So you can return to Judging his personal life before he became President and poo poo that he had women and stuff, it is what you do.

In the meantime, I am enjoying all he has done for this Country SINCE becoming President. thumbsup

It's too late for that BS. You made it clear what you care about above. Your money and nothing else.

You better wait until you start crowing about lies and no collusion. Mueller isn't done and won't say a word until he is. Then and only then will any of us know about collusion, obstruction of justice and other possible crimes.

He's a habitual liar and a weak azz wanna be bully with no moral compass. If that's what you support, you can have him.

I don't think Cohen lied,, he provided lots of documentation to prove his guilt and the guilt of others (probably trump, but he's not been actually named)

So I don't think that's it. after reading some others on here, I think it might be something to do with the Trump Foundation that he didn't know he was Treasurer of?

I think that's what is going on here.

America is what's most important to me. Not some fools stock portfolio.

Just like he just managed to figure out with N. Korea, that they aren't going to reduce their nukes, those trade deals aren't coming. And American consumers and workers will pay the price for his foolishness.

This was odd. Misery loves company, but we seem to have a real bad rash of immunity going around. This can't be a coincidence. This one just seemed odd as far as what it was targeting.

PREDICTION: Sarah the Huckster will have a bad day Monday. This is becoming sadder by the day.

trump hired her ‘the best’ doctor that gave her a soulectomy. Now she’s free to stand at the podium and spew forth whatever garbage her empty, vacuous self can come up with.
