And finally to the real point of your out of context quote, where does the Russian collusion tie in here again? You still have nothing.
Not long after Michael Cohen stopped pursuing a Trump-branded property project in Moscow, another Russian connection to the future U.S. president’s entourage started to form.
Like the real estate plan, it didn’t end well—particularly for Russian tycoon Viktor Vekselberg. His effort to engage in statecraft at the highest level unraveled spectacularly, costing him billions, cleaving his family and severing the extensive ties to the U.S. elite that turned him into what one Moscow newspaper called the “most American” of Vladimir Putin’s plutocrats.
This saga, much of it previously unreported, began with a chance encounter between Cohen, Trump’s now-disgraced former lawyer, and Vekselberg’s American cousin, Andrew Intrater, in the fall of 2016. Soon, Trump would be in the White House and Vekselberg would be privately boasting of having the pull needed to help achieve the sanctions relief the Kremlin was craving, people familiar with the matter said. Instead, he became the richest victim of the most dangerous standoff between the U.S. and Russia since the Cold War.
So the fact that a real estate mogul planned potentially to do a project in Moscow, but didn't, is proof Russia colluded with him to get him elected now?
Has half the congress actually been found guilty of this cover up before courts?
Guilty of what? You mean like guilty of "campaign finance violations"? Was Trump found guilty or some douche bag duplicitous lawyer?
If this is the new precedent (yes this is a new precedent), then yes half of congress is liable to be charged the same way, because there is no difference between what they did and this, except they used public funds to do it.
