"At the criminal trial of Trump, the prosecutors are following the “statement of facts” script they publicly disclosed last year, to a T. Michael Popok explains the purpose of the “statement of facts”, what the prosecutors have proved already through the first 5 witnesses, and what and in what order is left to come over the next 2-3 weeks including —wait for it—Trump’s disgraced Controller and Accounts Payable Supervisor!"

"Susanne Craig, New York Times Investigative Reporter, Melissa Murray, NYU Law University Professor and Vaughn Hillyard, NBC News Correspondent, joins Nicolle Wallace on Deadline White House with reaction to Day 12 of the Trump Hush Money trial which included the prosecution calling two Trump Organization employees laying the groundwork for the prosecution's argument that Donald Trump was a micromanager who would know about every payment being made on his behalf."
As my colleague Fred Schneider talked about earlier today:
"But, as a non-lawyer, I would like to see another credible witness, pre-Michael Cohen, who was close to DJT, or who still is close to DJT, take the stand and back up what David Pecker has exposed (pun intended) and what Hope Hicks said on Friday about DJT's knowledge about what was going on here and what he intended to do about it. Which was to burry the story, at least before the 2016 presidential election, by paying these women off with his money. Which was the money he paid back to his then lawyer Michael Cohen, for paying off Stephanie Clifford (also known as Stormy Daniels) and Karen McDougal, back in late 2016 before the election."

I'm not much of a baker, or even cook, for that matter, but if I was trying to put together the perfect omelette (let's say) and I already had the eggs, (well, hopefully) and I have the cheese, I have the tomatoes, the onions, etc. But there's that one thing left that make this omelette perfect, that I don't have yet, I think we now have one of the two final ingredients in this case.
Think about it, Donald Trump's New York hush money case is like that perfect omelette in waiting:
Manhattan has the man who worked with the catch and kill scheme, David Pecker.
They have the bank records that prove that these payments were made.
They have the lawyer for Stephanie Clifford, (also known as Stormy Daniels) Keith Davidson, who negotiated these hush money payments for his clients.
They now know thanks to Hope Hicks that it was the 2016 presidential election that the Trump Campaign was focused on when they learned that the two affairs with these women were about to get out. Not what Donald Trump's wife Melania or his Barron thought about it.
Now they have the records and the testimony from the Trump Organization's comptroller, Jeffrey McConney, that these payments were not just made, but that Donald Trump knew about them.
I'm with Fred, I want these affairs with Stephanie Clifford and Karen McDougal to be factually established. But maybe in this "perfect omelette" you want both bacon and perhaps chili as well. And if I'm the Manhattan District Attorney, I want both the bacon and chili, not to make my omelette perfect. (One or the other would be fine though) But to make the criminal case against Donald J. Trump perfect.
