#Breaking THERMONUCLEAIRE… #Cohen, l'ex-avocat de #Trump, signe 1 nouveau plaider coupable et accord de coopération avec le procureur spécial #Mueller où il avoue avoir menti aux commissions parlementaires SUR LA COLLUSION AVEC LA #RUSSIE... RT+1M
2) #Breaking Cohen a donc menti sur le fameux projet de #Trump Tower à Moscou qu'il avait toujours affirmé comme défunt à partir de janvier 2016 et du début des primaires républicaines. C'était donc faux... washingtonpost.com/politics/micha…
3) Pour mémoire, #Trump a TOUJOURS affirmé ne jamais avoir eu d'intérêts commerciaux et financiers avec la #Russie de #Poutine (ici en janvier 2017 #àvoir). Le plaider coupable de #Cohen semble indiquer...que c'est faux. cnbc.com/video/2017/01/…

#Breaking L'inénarrable ex-médecin personnel de #Trump, Bornstein, affirme maintenant qu'1"commando" formé autour de Schiller, garde du corps historique de Trump est venu s'emparer début 2017 du dossier médical du président. SANS document d'autorisation... nbcnews.com/politics/donal…
2) Le raid chez Bornstein est intervenu peu de jours après que celui-ci avait révélé dans le @nytimes que #Trump avait pris de la Propecia, médicament anti-chute de cheveux...or, pas dit par @NBCNews mais tout futur chauve comme moi sait que la Propecia est TRES controversée...
3)...la Propecia (finastéride) a été mise en cause depuis des années en France et aux USA pour provoquer des troubles graves de l'érection et de l'impuissance irréversibles. On peut comprendre dès lors que #Trump, le mâle alpha, ait été furieux contre son médecin de famille...

#BREAKING badaboum #Flynn, l'ex-conseiller sécurité nationale de #Trump a décidé de coopérer avec #Mueller pour éviter les poursuites. Il a rompu les liens avec l'équipe de défense du président. #GAMECHANGER nytimes.com/2017/11/23/us/…
2) #Flynn n'a peut-être pas encore signé d'accord mais il négocie avec #Mueller et vu ses casseroles, n'a pas vraiment de choix. Et pour l'équipe #Trump, déjà plus d'info via #Flynn de l'enquête #Mueller.
3) Maintenant, les choses peuvent aller très vite, 1 fois l'accord de coopération signé. Si #Flynn a des documents ou 1 témoignage contre #Trump et son entourage proche (fils, Kushner, président), il peut le(s) faire tomber. #Kushner est le 1er sur la liste de "cibles"éventuelles
