February 28, 2019 at 8:08 am EST By Taegan Goddard
Jonathan Swan: Near the end of Michael Cohens testimony yesterday, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez asked the former fixer whether President Trump had ever run an insurance fraud. Cohen said yes, naming three Trump Organization executives: Allen Weisselberg, Ron Lieberman and Matthew Calamari.
Unless youre a student of The Trump Organization the thinly-staffed Trump family business you may never have heard of Weisselberg, Lieberman or Calamari. But over the next year, these men and their colleagues may become household names as they endure a far-reaching, multi-armed investigation into Trumps family business and personal finances.
Said Bloombergs Tim OBrien: This organization has never had a proctology exam like its about to get. Its going to surface records thats going to become problematic for all of them to keep their stories straight.

While I appreciate the questions she asked,it isnt like we werent headed there until she asked them. That all has been part of the plan all along.
