    Former Department of Justice spokesperson Matt Miller described the letter as “essentially a criminal referral to DOJ for Trump making a false statement in a previous financial disclosure.”

    “Fascinated by OGE’s decision to make this referral public,” he continued. “Leaves DOJ no choice but to open at least a preliminary investigation into Trump for false statements (if he wasn’t already a subject in the Cohen inquiry, which he might be).”

    Uh oh, is the OGE now part of the deep state? Lol
    I don’t see how this ISNT a false statement. Trump has already confessed to this, after lying about it to all of us.

    Please QUOTE the OGE saying that, not MSBNC's asinine version....more madeup BULLSHIT.

    All they said was that Trump's retainer spent by Cohen on the NDA, should be listed as a specified expense in Trump's financial statement...a CLERICAL CONCERN.

    Now, hurry up an go "all MSNBC"!!! and pretend it "means something...."


    See the desperate deflection attempt...this is the best the Soros Site Spoonfeedings gave you???

    If you ever happen to consume non-leftist media you'll eventually learn that amending and revising these statements is common for Presidents, including Obama.

    The ignorance is stunning.

    An "ethics violation" is NOT a criminal accusation.

    Ah, all the weasel words from Rawstory, a far left wing rag.

    Trump's financial report lists $100,000 in payment to Cohen. That statement was included on the 45th page of a 92-page disclosure. It has been previously stated that Cohen was on retainer so payments to Cohen would not be something abnormal or illegal.

    Sure, but trump left it off the report and then publicly lied about it for months....then came clean. Obviously intentional.

    Not according to the president's legal advisor, who said it was just part of his regular retainer.

    And?

    The OEG disagrees, I guess we’ll see what the DOJ thinks.

    Was last years statement.

    https://www.washingtonpost.com/apps...umps-2017-personal-financial-disclosure/2306/

    Now, it is no surprise that the OGE refers it to the DOJ since that is what they are required to do when an complaint is filed. In this case, The Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics.

    If you think Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington is a “non-profit, non-partisan” watchdog group, think again.
