Michael Cohen wasted no time hitting the media circuit after being released from home confinement last week. The disbarred attorney spent Thanksgiving week making the rounds, speaking to everyone from CNN to NBC, and he has some very cryptic predictions about Don Jr., Ivanka, and Eric Trump in particular.
Speaking to Chuck Todd on Meet the Press yesterday, Cohen shared his thoughts about the ongoing case against the Trump Organization, as investigators continue digging into the company’s finances to determine whether Trump committed fraud by lying about his assets.
“Was I involved in much of the inflation and deflation of his assets?” Cohen told host Chuck Todd. “The answer to that is yes.”

How about we take this to the next level?
Our newsletter is like a refreshing cocktail (or mocktail) of LGBTQ+ entertainment and pop culture, served up with a side of eye-candy.
But it’s what Cohen said a little later in the interview that has everyone talking.
Asked about Allen Weisselberg, the Trump Organization’s longtime CFO charged with 15 counts of financial crimes last summer, including falsifying business records and federal tax fraud, Cohen said he believes prosecutors have their sights set on bigger targets. (Read: Trump’s three eldest children.)
“Allen Weisselberg is not the key to this,” he pontificated. “They are going after Donald, they’re going after Don Jr, Eric, Ivanka, a whole slew of individuals. Family, you know, family as well.”
Later, Todd asked, “Do you now believe that the Trump Organization is a criminal enterprise?”
To which Cohen responded, “I don’t even know how to answer that. Are they a criminal enterprise? Let’s just say that they committed crimes.”

Cohen also confirmed that he’s handed over “thousands and thousands” to investigators and he believes there’s enough evidence to indict all three of Trump’s adult children.
“Rest assured, I am not their only witness, and most importantly, what I gave to them are thousands and thousands of documents,” he said. “And as you know in law, there’s something called documentary evidence. I’m not asking anybody to believe me. No different than when I testified before the House Oversight Committee. Every statement that I make, I’ve backed up with documentary evidence.”
He added, “I truly believe that they can indict Donald Trump tomorrow if they really wanted, and be successful.”
Watch.
Now, here’s what people are saying on Twitter…
How long do you think Don Jr would last in jail❓😏

BREAKING: Michael Cohen tips off investigators on who they should ‘squeeze’ to get to Trump!
— Jeras Ikehorn (@JerasIkehorn) November 28, 2021
I don’t know about anyone else, but I’m really tired of hearing about it and I want to see some action taken.
This country is worth saving, but as long as the criminal family is getting away with it, their followers will follow suit and commit more and more crimes in their name

Michael Cohen’s interview with CNN:

Good the Trumps are being exposed but why, when the Biden kids are doing the same thing, everyone seems to turn a blind eye???
Mr. Stadnick
trump lovers are all fools and you have proved that.
AxelDC
This is a lie and you know it.
Phillip
Spare me your “What about isms.”
SamB
So three replies and yes, everyone eyes closed. No one replied with a counter argument.
Den
Of course people with brains are turning a blind eye to right wing lies and fantasies. Because they ARE, IN FACT, LIES AND FANTASIES.
Look up evidence in the dictionary, and you will see quite clearly that it has nothing to do with making stuff up to further a corrupt agenda or undermine an existing administration.
C_Alan
“Biden kids are doing the same thing” is as uninformed as it is really f-ing lazy.
SamB
Five replies now and no one admits it. I’m not even a Trumper, and if they are doing something illegal then go at ’em. Hunter Biden makes money from China, Ukraine, and most recently millions for an “art show” where his paintings (remember he’s not a known artist, he’s brand new to the art scene) were purchased very quickly for up to $500,000. Does that seem right to you? Hunter admitted on TV the laptop was his. There is no conspiracy. But it’s interesting to see how people will accept some facts (such as Trump’s kids are corrupt), but not others (so are Biden’s) … why is it ok for one but not the other? It should be ok for NONE of them.
jcool
i’m sorry, Biden “kids”?
President Biden has one living offspring.
not even a nice try, troll
SamB
@jcool: President Biden has two living offspring. Hunter, his son with this first wife, and Ashley, his daughter with Jill. Ashley’s diary, which she and the Whitehouse admitted were hers, were recently released online, and I do not agree that they should have been, but it clearly shows how messed up she is and how messed up she considers her parents.
barryaksarben
SUCH trollish comment. For one thing BIden had a son serve in the military something no trump has done since the dawn of time. No Biden started a childrens cancer charity only to steal from it. Lara Trump stole from an animal rescue charity. I doubt ANY republican on the hill isnt a crook. Yes many dems too but at least the dems are NOT promoting violence against our government and our people
SamB
@ Barry, why does it have to be a “they” are worse than “these”? they can BOTH be bad. We have to hold all of our elected officials accountable. Saying “This devil is better than that devil” shouldn’t be good enough. My point is corruption needs to be called out even if you voted for the person.
Mack
Guess you believe all the lies told by the Orange turd.
Toddslove
That’s an asinine statement, and it isn’t true. Hunter Biden has been all but cleared, and has also successfully completed rehab, unlike traitor Trump’s coke-snorting oldest son. Are you one of those self-loathing gays who supports Trump?
SamB
@ Todd: “… all but cleared” literally means not cleared.
RTG
Give us so much as one (1) molecule of objective evidence and maybe someone would take you seriously. But of course you can’t even provide that………
Sqwoah
You should probably just jack off so you can get rid of your boner for the Trumps and move on with your life.
They’re doing fine. They’re not going to jail. They are rich, they have plenty of people around them supporting them and they really don’t care about your opinion of them.
d3clark
If doing fine means having to sell the DC hotel at a loss of millions, being investigated by state and federal officials for tax violations, having lost d
so much money he was kicked off of the Fortune 400, having a loveless marriage to a gold digging soft porn model, having children who are also being investigated for multiple crimes, owning a declasse hotel infested with bedbugs, having huge loans that he needs to pay off over the next two years, being considered persona non grata in NYC, being a deviant who has several psychiatric illnesses, being hated by 70%+of Americans, and 90% of the rest of the world., being too stupid to realize he was a puppet of Putin’s, being a lying, seditious bastard, then you’re right. He’s doing fine – and the fine should be 500 million dollars, minimum.
Mr. Stadnick
This is a great time to be Tiffany trump!
woodroad34
Well, she is family (even though she’s pretty much out of the public eye) and she is training to be a lawyer (consiglierie?)–M Cohen did refer to “family”.
GayEGO
Isn’t her name – Tiffanny Trump? After all, she is a Trump kid!
Fahd
Who does one see to complain about the foot-dragging on the Trump prosecutions?
Kangol2
Attorney General Merrick Garland is at the top of the list, but the New York State Attorney General, New York City District Attorney, DC District Attorney & US Attorneys for those states and jurisdictions are all on there too. Also, Georgia’s prosecutorial officials should have the easiest case, since the corrupt psychopathic traitor Don the Con is captured on audiotape trying to force Georgia’s election officials to change the official election results, which is a violation of federal law. It would be poetic justice if a Southern state turned out to be the one to finally put this racist, misogynistic lying gangster self-admitted sex abuser psycho Don the Con behind bars!
AxelDC
Wake me when they’re in handcuffs.
jayceecook
Unfortunately nothing is going to happen to them. Weasels always find a way out of a messy situation. There may be some minor, short term consequences but I highly doubt any of them will have to deal with the big, long-term kind.
Den
The Nixon investigation took longer than the Trump legal investigations have so far. ‘The mills of justice turn slowly, but they grind exceedingly fine.’
jayceecook
@Den It’s a different era now. Plus, I wasn’t referring to time. I was referring to the fact that despite what people may say about the Trumps in public, behind closed doors they still have allies and supporters who can pull strings. I guarantee you that the few republican politicians who condem them in the press are wheeling and dealing with the Trumps in private. They will find a way to weasel out of the serious charges that may be brought against them.
woodroad34
Loved @Donhammed Trumpistan’s comment….I, too, (at the mention of The Spawn being indicted) of having ‘jizzed a little’….most of the time when said spawn are mentioned, I throw up a little.
gregg2010
I wish articles like this would give me hope, but they don’t. The three of them will never see the inside of a jail. Too rich, too white, and still too powerful. I’m a fool to hope . . .
fur_hunter
I hope THEY ALL, along with ALL the cronies, end up in prison. When is Merrick Garland going to get off his @$$ and convict them?
twomen4u
The two sons should go to a prison where the worst offenders are housed. The prisoners should be alerted as to who they are so appropriate boy friends can be secured before their arrival. The sister should get the same treatment in a female prison. It is time for all three to see the REAL world.
SamB
Nice attitude. Who else do you want r@ped just because you don’t like them?
dhmonarch89
you have been running this headline for the last 4 years- and still, nothing has happened to any of them! Get back to us when they actually go to prison (like the gay super hero promise every other week for 10 years)
GayEGO
It is taking much too long to convict Trump! Why not send the prison van to Mar-A-Lago and arrest him and drive him to jail!
CNY1983
Sam B, no one’s buying the Hunter bullshit but you and you’re not only buying it you’re eating it with a fork and spoon.
GreekKeys
The 9,482nd clickbait but content-free article about something that might/could/maybe/should/probably happen to somebody in TFG’s circle… but never does. Just stop. PS: twitter burns are not news. Nor are they reporting. They’re copy/paste bullsh!t.
