Cohen to plead the Fifth in Stormy Daniels lawsuit
By Jacqueline Thomsen - 04/25/18 06:27 PM EDT

President Trump’s personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, plans to assert his Fifth Amendment rights in the lawsuit filed against him by adult film star Stormy Daniels.

“Based on the advice of counsel, I will assert my 5th amendment rights in connection with all proceeding in this case due to the ongoing criminal investigation by the FBI and U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York,” Cohen said in a court filing Wednesday.

Cohen said the FBI raids earlier this month on his residence, office and hotel room — and the ongoing criminal probe they represent — are behind the decision not to offer testimony in the California lawsuit.

Sounds like.... a rather convenient (conveniently timed, anyway) excuse to me.

Funny. All the Lib talking heads said he was going to roll over with some bombshell shit. Looks like that was just some more Fake News.

You would do the same.


I would. He's being attacked from different directions and has little choice but to duck out.

Who knows?  I’m not stupid enough to get myself into the position he’s in in the first place.  He’s gonna lose his meal ticket at a minimum.
