Re: We are all Slave now.
So Wiesselberg getting immunity in connection with the Cohen investigation is interesting, but I can't help thinking that in addition to meaning there are multiple witnesses to say 45 is directly implicated in the crimes we already know about, it seems like it also makes the broader speculated-upon money laundering case less likely. If Trump Org had been laundering money when buying golf courses for cash, Weisselberg, as CFO, would likely be involved and thus a poor candidate for immunity this early. Unless he's also cooperating on those issues too but for some reason it doesn't feel like he is.
Anyway, right now it feels like Mueller and it's spin offs may wind up not going that much beyond what we've sort of known all along.
