BREAKING: SDNY Says Trump (Individual 1) Committed Felony


Of the three court filings this afternoon -- the Special Counsel's Michael Cohen filing, the Special Counsel's Paul Manafort filing, and the Southern District of New York's Cohen filing -- the Southern District's filing contains the most direct, damning charge against treasonous con artist Donald "Rump" Trump to date:
As in last week’s documents, Trump is clearly listed as “Individual-1” and he’s “Individual 1” in these too.  [snip] 
We knew from his plea deal, in which he admitted to eight crimes, that Cohen had implicated Trump in campaign finance violations involving the payment to Stormy Daniels. But here the SDNY prosecutors also state Trump’s role in directing the payment as plain fact. 
“In particular, and as Cohen himself has now admitted, with respect to both payments, he acted in coordination with and at the direction of Individual-1,” they say. 
That’s significant, because it’s now on-record that they — not just Cohen — regard Trump as having directed Cohen in the commission of what has been found to be a felony. Legal experts say it means prosecutors have corroborating evidence to back up Cohen’s claims.  (our emphasis)
Of course, there's more involving contacts with Russians in the Special Counsel's Cohen filing that indicates Cohen's testimony is also backed by corroborating evidence, and that still needs to play out. Here's a link to both the SDNY and Special Counsel's filings on Cohen.

We'll be watching the media tonight to see how they manage to bury the lede.

BONUS:  "Rexxon" Tillerson nailed it. Rump can't read:
