| | | Michael Cohen pics that remind one of mob movies ... for good reason:
When he was supposed to be in court, he was having a street meeting in front of his hotel.

Michael Cohen is spending a lovely 80-degree day with his friends, outside his Manhattan hotel, smoking a cigar. On the right: Rotem Rosen. Rotem Rosen and Alex Sapir accompanied Donald Trump on his 2013 trip to Russia.
[ Notice the handiness ... pals or checking for a wire? ]
The guy in the grey shirt is Dan Elituv, CEO of Gottex Models, Ltd. Elituv bought Gottex in 2009 from Lev Leviev, a Soviet-born oligarch with close ties to Putin. In 2015 Kushner Companies bought a stake in the old New York Times building from Lev Leviev.

My take: Michael Cohen was flaunting this pow-wow with his Russian-connected goombahs (when he was supposed to be in court across town) because Trump let him know that -- just like Scooter Libby -- he'd be pardoned. It's like watching a low-budget Mafia movie.
[ My thought was they're outside because they're worried there are listening devices inside. OTOH maybe he felt safer meeting some of these guys out in the open where the whole world can see them. ]

So almost to a man, serious connections with Russian oligarchs, or outright Putin mafia men. They don't care, because they believe they've got the world by the balls and they can ignore Rule of Law. Got it.

Looks like a bunch of guys worried about their "exposure"... I think you'll find Cohen has tried to learn to fly out of a very high building very soon
[ Yeah, people who offend Russian mobsters tend to fall off balconies. ]

No doubt Cohen was summoned by these “business associates” to placate and appease them that nothing collected by FBI will implicate them. Notice how he’s trying to appear calm & cool, no worries whatsoever ?
[ Yeah, Trump's lawyer is in with the Russian mob. And so is Trump. ] |
