Here's how Trump's business reimbursed Cohen for the hush money payout, per trial evidence
By Ben Kochman
Then-Trump Organization CFO Allen Weisselberg wrote down notes explaining the scheme to reimburse Michael Cohen for his $130,000 payout to Stormy Daniels, trial evidence shows.
Weisselberg scrawled messy notes explaining the scheme on a copy of a bank statement for Cohen's shell company that was used to make the Daniels payout, Essential Consultants LLC.
Here's how it worked:
-- They started with a $130,000 payment to reimburse Cohen for paying the Daniels hush money.
-- They then added $50,000 owed to Cohen to reimburse him for paying an IT firm called "Red Finch," which Cohen testified he hired to rig online polls in favor of Trump in 2015.
-- Then they doubled $180,000 to $360,000 to make up for the roughly 50% taxes the Midtown Manhattan resident would have to pay because he was in a high tax bracket.
-- They then added an extra $60,000 as a "bonus" to make up for Trump apparently stiffing Cohen on a bonus the previous year.
-- Weisselberg told Cohen that the new total of $420,000 would be paid out in 12 installments of $35,000 throughout 2017.

As for population -- open your eyes. The gov't just went after folks in nursing homes with this mandated COVID b.s. to wipe out the elderly population -- they've gone after LEGAL Americans and insisted and mandated the COVID vaccine. Those vaccines have proven to have cause adverse side effects in younger people, and in some instances death. IMHO I believe that there is the possibilities that the vaccines given to our youth have made them sterile.
The gov't is trying to lower the U.S. population. Why??
Now that MLK is no longer the hero he once was, maybe we should go into every community and remove all the signs from those streets that were changed to honor him and rename them DEI Drive. We might need to rethink that MLK holiday in January too.Shhh. I suspect there are a lot of people who would gladly rename every MLK Dr. in America after Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, or another of the thug "victims" of white supremacy.
He goes to mass late Sunday afternoon? I guess the meds don't kick in until then.
