  1. Weisselberg wasn’t Trump’s CFO, he was Trump’s Chef, and his job was cooking the books for Trump.

    1. David Gray The election was stolen, the election was stolen, the election was stolen.. Like that right?

    2. sissy murphy Sorry to bust your bubble but you misinterpreted my comment. Your cult leader LOST THE ELECTION bigly . Thank God

  2. “Fact is, all lies, all evil deeds, they stink. You can cover them up for a while, but they don’t go away.”

    – Dalton Russell, Inside Man

    1. @nosuchthing8 – The ghouls running things laugh at people who still think having an R or D attached to a name means anything. The court system is broken because justice is not what they’re about. They only exist to keep people from overthrowing the parasitic oligarchy that enslaves them.

    2. if you can be bothered to really know the truth and stop being a sheep then check this out that MSM doesn’t want you to see, youtu.be/4bxI803q6i8

    3. @Ben Carson – I just watched that a few days ago and it underlined the fact that the truth really does fit together like a well-made puzzle.

    4. @White Feather You are certifiable. Or a troll, bot bot. When trump is finally paying his dues, you,ll probably explode. 🙄

    1. @dethgripp1 Yep. We do hate. We hate Trump and we hate YOU.

      And we won. Get out of our way or we will move you.

    2. @dethgripp1 Cool. We still won. Get out of our way or we will roll right over you.

      The American Republic is going to remove you folks. And then we’ll rebuild, without any of you.

      TDS? Cool. It’s still going to happen.

    3. @dethgripp1
      Oh, you haven’t figured it out yet — the brain deranged by Trump’s lies is yours. Sad.

    4. @dethgripp1 No I do not hate the 2X’s IMPEACHED 45 former POS of the USA. That statement is a Fact. And you are so correct, I do not know trump personally and can say with certainty that you do not KNOW trump also. But what I am referring to is the lying, name calling, division he kept pushing while he was in Office, And the BIG LIE trump promoted while at the same time trying his Damndest to steal the 2020 Presidential Election. I loath trump’s actions but I could never hate him because Jesus loves him. Hating someone because of their deplorable actions would only damage me and not the person committing the atrocious acts. May God have Mercy on us ALL! 🎤

    3. @Alfie Mail LOL, your funny. Most of the recovery in the last 4 years of trump and the GOP was off the back of the Obama era and its decisions, not trumps. The GOP and trump did nothing for America but line their own pockets.

  4. They wait until they get caught and then they flip. If he was an honest person He would not have played Hide and seek with Trump’s money. Even if he flips he should still go to jail if he has been broken the Law

    1. Hiw. Could he have not knowingly switching around funds ir what not if he’s in the position or control if said funds he is just as guilty if he didn’t do anything criminally per say he did it does financially cause he did it for him it advised him either way he knows and he knows it is not right and he then covers or aides him no matter guilty

  5. I *love* the way Katyal put that: “Strictly speaking they don’t need Weisselburg. Getting him is just gravy, but the *tastiest* of gravy.” 😁

    1. @HS Look at you hanging on to that QAnon RPG. Bless your heart. Maybe it’s time to stop listening to your friends on MySpace.

    2. @David C dance away at this:
      All these things happened starting at around 3 o’clock in the morning.

      Total number of votes:
      • Obama at 69,000,000
      • Trump at 74,000,000
      • Biden at 81,000,000

      Number of counties each candidate won:

      • Obama Democrats Won Seats
      • Trump Republicans Won Seats
      • Biden Democrats Won NO Seats

    3. @J J Trump will go to jail if the USA is to remain a credible country. Which in electing Biden it leaned towards being after electing Trump and torching its hard earned reputation on the world stage. But hey, loads of previously credible countries have also done that!

      It’s really important that the whole racket gets locked up for a long time. Don Jr. Eric. Melania. Ivanka. Jared.

      America has to be better than having these utter imbeciles not only being in charge but having their pants down.

      Get it sorted.

    1. @Danny H You may be right. I certainly wouldn’t put it past trump to try to have someone murdered. It probably wouldn’t be the first time. If fact, I wouldn’t be surprised to learn that trump had a hand in his buddy Epstein’s “suicide”.

    2. @Enstigator Official If the Russians won’t do it, he can always send Jared and Rudy to bump him off.

  6. Trump: “This guy you’re talking about… Allan Whistleburg, Wrestleburg, Weisselberg, or whatever it is… I never even met the guy before!

  7. “The tastiest of gravy”
    Well said, sir. But it is a strange metaphor, eh, given the putridity of the ingredients being served.

  8. He won’t be able to hold out. He’ll know his goose is cooked after a couple of rounds of questioning. He’ll raise the white flag and take the plea deal.

    1. if you can be bothered to really know the truth and stop being a sheep then check this out that MSM doesn’t want you to see, youtu.be/4bxI803q6i8

    1. @altareggo We’ve been stuck in an escalating nightmare for decades and a stumblebum like Dust bin Biden is destined to make things worse. The only good thing about him is he’s not Kopmala.

    2. @Mary Halverson decades in the making..tRump poured gas on the fire,Biden may not be able to snuff it out.
