The Trump Organization planned to give a $50 million penthouse at Trump Tower Moscow to Vladimir Putin as the company negotiated the real estate development, four people tell BuzzFeed, one of them the originator of the plan.

.@DBongino’s new book, "Spygate: The Attempted Sabotage of Donald J. Trump," is terrific. He's tough, he's smart, and he really gets it. His book is on sale now, I highly recommend!

“He’s [a] liar,” Giuliani told the New York Daily News. “That son of a b*tch should have been disbarred months ago. He’s a disgrace to the profession. He’s a really bad guy. He’s a god damn liar.”

In court filings, Cohen said the president knew about negotiations for the since-scrapped Trump Tower Moscow project up until June 2016. He also admitted that he lied to Congress about the length of that deal when he testified that negotiations had ended in January 2016.

While Trump suggested Cohen did not lie to Congress, Giuliani appeared to contradict him when he offered a justification for why the president’s former “fixer” did so.

“It’s no surprise that Cohen lied to Congress,” Giuliani said in a statement. “He’s a proven liar who is doing everything he can to get out of a long-term prison sentence for serious crimes of bank and tax fraud that had nothing to do with the Trump Organization.”

Here’s Evidence of Collusion: Trump’s Lawyer Discussed Business Deal With Putin’s Office

MIchael Cohen pleads guilty to lying to Congress and reveals that Trump’s company hooked up with Moscow.

News of Trump’s secret deal in Russia did not emerge until after the 2016 election. And when the story came out, Cohen insisted that though Trump had been involved in the project he (Cohen) ended the venture on his own in January 2016. Cohen also said that he had tried to contact Dmitry Peskov, a top aide to Putin, for assistance, but that he had only used an email address he found on the internet for Peskov’s office and never heard back. That’s the tale he told the congressional committees: he killed the project before the 2016 primaries began, and he did not make contact with Putin’s office.

This was all a lie.

According to the document Mueller filed, negotiations for the Moscow deal went on at least until June 2016, when Trump was the presumptive GOP nominee, and Cohen did make contact with Putin’s office. Cohen also admitted to Mueller that he spoke with Trump more often about the Russia project than he had told Congress.

The real story, Cohen acknowledged, was that Cohen emailed Peskov’s office twice, seeking help from Putin’s aide. According to the filing, Cohen heard back from Peskov’s personal assistant, who asked that he call her. Cohen called her and explained the project, providing the name of the Russian development company with which the Trump Organization was working. Cohen asked her for help in moving the project forward, both in securing land for the proposed Trump tower and finding financing for the endeavor. Peskov’s assistant asked detailed questions, took notes, and said she would take up the matter with others in Russia. The next day, Sater contacted Cohen and asked Cohen to call him, noting, “It’s about [the President of Russia] they called today.”

A fair reading of this is that Cohen’s call to Peskov’s office paid off: the next day someone connected to Putin got involved.

Can you imagine Trump sitting on AF1 on the way to the G20? The seething, steaming anger building into a near-apoplexy?

It's going to be glorious.

Did you ever see an investigation more in search of a crime? At the same time Mueller and the Angry Democrats aren’t even looking at the atrocious, and perhaps subversive, crimes that were committed by Crooked Hillary Clinton and the Democrats. A total disgrace!
