Reminder: Michael Cohen's ex-attorney Lanny Davis promised congressional testimony like this on the day of his former client's sentencing.

From Dec. 12, 2018. courthousenews.com/sentencing-imm…
At the time, Davis said that Cohen would testify at "the appropriate time, after Mr. Mueller completes his investigation and issues his final report."

Either Davis believes that report is imminent, or Cohen agreed to Feb. 7 because he reports to prison on March 6.
Here is Michael Cohen's statement from today, delivered via Lanny Davis.

This is the second time that Giuliani has admitted on TV that the Trump Tower Moscow negotiations went on right up to the election.

The first time was with George Stephanopoulos on ABC’s “This Week” in December.
Reminder: BuzzFeed’s @JasonLeopold and @A_Cormier_ — yes, the same reporting team — produced the scoop that the Trump Org planned to offer Putin a $50 million penthouse if the Moscow tower deal went forward.

No part of that story ever has been disputed. buzzfeednews.com/article/anthon…
Consider what that means:

Both Trump and Putin stood to financially benefit from a real estate deal that — as Giuliani repeatedly made clear — had been on the table at least all the way up to election day.

This WaPo piece attributed to “people familiar” asserts the denial was much more expansive, but BuzzFeed notes what the office actually released publicly is unclear.

Let’s see how the story develops. washingtonpost.com/world/national…
One thing is certain: BuzzFeed and the reporters behind this story have put out indispensable reporting on the Mueller probe in general — and the subject of the article in particular.

That remains true however the SCO’s carefully worded statement is ultimately clarified.

Any news story that fails to label this tweet the raw racist and anti-Muslim bigotry that is — without qualification — is more interested in maintaining access to power than informing the public of observable reality.
At risk of validating the underlying premise that prayer rugs are sinister, it’s worth noting that the tweet is predicated on a dodgy story — one with a long history of similar lies.

Thread.
This also seems to be an instance that calls for revulsion that’s stronger than a fact-check.

The noxious premise behind the report is reprehensible.

Quick thread to recap some of longtime Trump personal lawyer Michael Cohen & his own attorneys' ties to foreign interests—including Qatar, Ukrainian oligarchs, and Russian president Vladimir Putin—in light of recent reporting:
$4 million Michael Cohen failed to pay taxes on includes $100,000 real-estate brokerage fee from representing company owned by a Qatar royal family member—according to the #PanamaPapers—who also owns Trump Park Ave condo bought directly from POTUS in 2005 on.wsj.com/2wbXg9J
FARA filings show Trump personal lawyer Michael Cohen’s attorney Stephen Ryan registered in 2017 as foreign agent for the Qatari govt & its ambassador—who was at the 2016 Trump Tower meeting the same month Cohen allegedly asked Qatar for $1M+ in exchange for Trump admin access.

This is literally where Mueller & their media allies are at. Still desperately trying to float already debunked stories. Like the "Michael Cohen was in Prague to meet tha RUSSIANS" allegation in the Steele Dossier.

It's telling that while currently facing SIXTY FIVE YEARS IN PRISON, Michael Cohen AND his lawyer, Lanny Davis, still won't endorse a single allegation about him in the Steele dossier.
Read that article I linked above, about how the whole 'wrong Michael Cohen in Prague' fiasco got started. FBI contractors were MINING THE NSA DATABASE for electronic communications.

There *was* a Michael Cohen in Prague. He just wasn't the *right* Michael Cohen.

(THREAD) Okay, I’m pretty sure I’ve figured this one out.

The phone conversation between Trump and Cohen took place around Sept 6, and was clearly CAMPAIGN RELATED. (h/t to Philip Bump, WaPo). #cohen
1/ Pecker (the “David” on the tape) has already paid $150K to Macdougal to get the rights to her story, which he will then bury. (In journalism, it’s called “catch and kill.”)
2/ Trump and Cohen agree that it’s important for Trump to BUY the story from Pecker.
