I don't rate Cohen as a reliable source, but nonetheless, here's what he's saying:
In an interview with Insider on Thursday, Cohen predicted that Weisselberg would begin cooperating with prosecutors now that he "knows what handcuffs feel like as well as being placed in a cell."
Cohen has reportedly been providing evidence to prosecutors at the Manhattan district attorney's office about his work at the Trump Organization.
He says prosecutors have enough evidence against the company to bring further charges without Weisselberg's cooperation.
In the CNN interview he said the real target of the inquiry wasn't the top executives at the company like Weisselberg but the "CEO of the Trump Organization, Donald Trump himself."
"There is nothing that happened at the Trump Organization that did not go to Donald, whether it was the purchasing of paper clips or the payment of Allen Weisselberg's grandchildren's tuition," he said.
I mean, it was investigated. And did you read this article? It's pretty thin. There's a photo of Biden, Hunter, and some wealthy executives at a holiday party. This is supposed to prove what exactly?
Did Hunter capitalize on his father's fame and political influence? Undoubtedly. That's gross, but it's not illegal. Do you have any actual evidence of a quid pro quo? Is there evidence that Biden got money or anything else in exchange for doing anything? There's nothing even close to that in this article. If such evidence does exist, Hunter and Biden should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. But until then, can you perhaps stick to the topic at hand? Trump's org is being accused of violating actual tax laws. The DA's office is claiming they have evidence that the organization falsified W2s and other tax filings. That's serious.
These charges represent only the first inning.
.. who is the unindicted co-conspirator .. ?
.. individual 1 had and has knowledge of the entire affair.
.. weaselman aint gonna hold out forever.
Also, your fool of a President had four years to investigate Hunter and Biden. How come he didn't have his people look into it?
Giuliani and Trump asked Ukraine to do it for them.

Hey Clownman, the justice system should never be used as a weapon and certainly not in the name of politics but that's what we're seeing in this instance and many others. I understand you're hatred of DJT but the political bias in our DOJ is extremely apparent and out in the open. On a positive note, at least this time they didn't pull the pre-dawn raid with SWAT, Frog Men and camera's from CNN to serve a senior citizen.

Are you alleging Trump Org did not commit tax fraud? Or that companies should not be persecuted for tax fraud? Or that politicians and their companies should be above the law? Or something else?
You Trump people will believe just about anything. Bias in the DOJ against Trump? You mean the DOJ that he was head of for 4 years and could shape any way he liked? The same DOJ where he removed anyone he thought was not supporting him? (Mcabe, Comey, Yates, Rosenfield, Sessions, etc etc).
Also, minor point of order - these latest charges aren't from the DOJ, they are from the state district attorney.

Joe Walsh, a former Republican congressman turned Trump critic, tweeted in response: “Trump’s supporters already know he’s a tax cheat, a liar, a ruler-breaker, and a crook. They don’t care.”
