Ah, the sweet smell of indictment: [View all]

"The Mazars letter told the Trump organization that Trump’s financial statements from years ending June 2011 through June 2020 could not be relied upon to be accurate,...that they were not reliable"

Lawyer George Conway interpreted the letter for non-lawyers. He tweeted:

'decision regarding the financial…statements’=they are false because you lied
'totality of the circumstances’=the D.A. is serious
‘non-waivable conflict of interest’=we are now on team D.A.
‘not able to provide new work product’=sorry we’re not going to jail for you”
