POL / Amerikaans Buitenlandbeleid: Trump de onderhandelaarLekker zuipen, lekker dansen en daarna lekker neuken.https://www.cnbc.com/2018(...)trumps-campaign.htmlquote:Michael Cohen paid a mysterious tech company $50,000 'in connection with' Trump's campaign
Christina Wilkie | @christinawilkie
*President Donald Trump's former lawyer, Michael Cohen, made a previously unreported payment of $50,000 to a tech company in connection with Trump's 2016 presidential campaign.
*The document detailing the payment does not say which company Cohen paid the money to, or what, exactly, the company did for him.
*The payment suggests that Cohen may have been doing more for Trump, and for the Trump campaign, than had been previously known.
President Donald Trump's longtime personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, spent hundreds of thousands of dollars during the summer and fall of 2016 to silence two women who claimed they'd had sexual relationships with the married
candidate.
But silence is not all that Cohen appears to have purchased in order to help his boss win the White House.
Buried in the legal documents released Tuesday as part of Cohen's guilty plea on eight felony counts, there was a new, previously unreported payment Cohen made in 2016 to help Trump: $50,000 for work that prosecutors say Cohen "solicited from a technology company during and in connection with the campaign."
The documents do not identify which tech company Cohen paid the money to, or what, exactly, the company did for him. But the mere existence of the previously unknown payment suggests that Cohen may have been doing more for Trump, and for the Trump campaign, than simply paying off women.
Furthermore, the way that Cohen reported the $50,000 expense to the Trump Organization in January 2017 suggests the money may not have been paid out through traditional financial channels.
According to prosecutors, Cohen presented Trump executives with bank records for several of the expenses he incurred on Trump's behalf. But for his $50,000 payment to a tech company, Cohen provided no paperwork, just a handwritten sum at the top of one of the other bank documents.
The Trump Organization would later say that the $50,000 was a "payment for tech services." However, prosecutors say the $50,000 "was in fact related to work Cohen had solicited from a technology company during and in connection with the campaign."SPOILEROm spoilers te kunnen lezen moet je zijn ingelogd.

This is an incredibly insensitive attempt to use a young person’s death for political purposes and you should be ashamed. It’s too early to talk about immigration and we offer our thoughts and prayers to her and her family.You can learn anything, the secret lies in discipline.

But there remained a pervasive belief, rightly or wrongly, that things have looked this bad before.
That was little consolation to advisers who admitted they had no strategy for countering the news that Mr. Trump’s former fixer, Michael D. Cohen, had admitted in federal court that Mr. Trump directed him to arrange payments to two women during the 2016 campaign to silence them from talking publicly about affairs they said they had with Mr. Trump. Nor was there a plan, according to interviews with half a dozen current and former aides, to put a spin on the conviction of Paul Manafort, Mr. Trump’s former campaign manager, on eight counts of financial fraud.
The only option was to follow Mr. Trump’s lead. The president, returning to a well-worn tactic of scouring media reports for any opportunity that would allow him to seize the news cycle again, decided not to cancel a planned sit-down with Fox News on Wednesday.
Sarah Huckabee Sanders, the White House press secretary, was left to repeatedly refer to the president’s past comments on the matter.
“He did nothing wrong,” Ms. Sanders said at least three times in a briefing to reporters, a sentiment that White House employees have told themselves in private conversations. “There are no charges against him.”
But this time, advisers noticed that the president, a man who has in the past relished the idea of leading his troops into political battle, seemed subdued. He appeared to realize the serious nature of what had just taken place, and yet his relative calm — contrasted with his more typical lashing out when he is anxious — unnerved some of his aides.
“We started with collusion,” the president mused, according to several people who witnessed Mr. Trump’s somber mood. “How did we end up here?”SPOILEROm spoilers te kunnen lezen moet je zijn ingelogd.

The Des Moines Register reported that Cristhian Bahena Rivera's attorney filed a court document Wednesday that said the defendant was working legally in the U.S., contradicting law enforcement officials who said the defendant was an undocumented immigrant.
The court filing comes a day after Rivera, 24, was charged with the murder of Mollie Tibbetts, a University of Iowa student.
In the court document, attorney Allen Richards accused the government of wrongly promoting the idea that Rivera was in the U.S. illegally. He also criticized Trump for discussing Tibbetts's death during a rally on Tuesday night.
"Sad and sorry Trump has weighed in on this matter in national media which will poison the entire possible pool of jury members," Richards wrote, citing Trump's comments on the case.
Despite the lawyer's claims, both U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) maintained that Rivera is not in the country legally.SPOILEROm spoilers te kunnen lezen moet je zijn ingelogd.
