WASHINGTON — There’ll be much talk of a “rat,” hush money for onetime paramours and the 2016 presidential campaign.That’s the key question Michael Cohen will be expected to answer with documents on Wednesday during a Capitol Hill drama that sounds more like a mobster movie every day. Trump’s formal personal lawyer and “fixer” is set to go public before a Democrat-led House panel and talk about the decade in which he would “take a bullet” for his boss.
In the prepared remarks, Cohen brands the president a “racist,” a “conman” and a “cheat.” He says that Trump made racist comments about African-Americans and mused that black people would never vote for him because they were too stupid. The president immediately raged about the “disgrace” of the raid and attacked the impartiality of Mueller’s probe.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi issued a statement that did not name Gaetz but suggested that the ethics committee “vigilantly” monitor statements that don’t “reflect creditably on the House.” That standard can be a trigger for ethics complaints. What’s not OK: Asking about the multiple probes into whether Russia tried to influence the U.S. election and what role, if any, Trump and his associates may have played. Members also are not to ask about “any financial or other compromise or leverage foreign actors may pose over Donald Trump, his family, his business interests or his associates.”
Known liar
This man made Democrats look so bad today that even CNN claimed he was lying.
Because Cohen was speaking against Trump... All R’s: “He has lied previously to Congress and IRS so we should not believe a word he says” All D’s: “This is a redemption story and we should ignore previous lying and believe everything” And Lady Justice wept
Thank you Mr Cohen....
Now we're supposed to believe him? Typical democrats. MAGA
Another Beauty the is Fake News
*Could* That there, is some good investigative journalism.
cumbia1329 Cohen lied his ass off today; he has no credibility whatsoever!
Desperation is kicking in with the deep state. Time to up the gears and take the cabal out
This convicted criminal and liar given air time while our president is out of country trying to denuclearize N Korea-sheer lunacy folks
This guy is not a Rat, he is just a liar.
Let me fix that for you: Michael Cohen, President Trump's formal personal lawyer and 'fixer,' is going public before a DEMOCRATIC-led House panel. Here's what to watch for.
The American people deserve the truth, the American people deserve better. The American people don’t deserve the blind following by the Republicans of a President of the United States who broke the laws of the United States of America.
I hope the American people have seen the travesty and the charade that the Republicans have made of the House Oversight Committee. The Republicans in the House Oversight Committee were more concerned in discrediting Michael Cohen than finding the truth about Donald Trump.
He is even sickening to look at.
He appears to be talking out of the side of his mouth.
Convicted Liar 👎🏼
Shoot Someone on 5th ave and Get away with it
The Price of Loyalty
Raised eyebrows?
Not exactly bringing honor and respect to his profession...or should I say, former profession. He will get a new prospective on life in prison.
Pathetic circus when the President of the United States is in a foreign country in very important talks. DEMS have lost their minds & this Independent will be never be persuaded through these antics. A person's personal attorney breaking trust is not trustworthy.
If this man had anything...he wouldn't be going to jail in May. He would have made a deal. He looked foolish in the wikileaks question when answered. He disputed the dossier statements and said never been to Prague. He said video from elevator wasn't real etc. OversightDems
So when will there b a funeral 4 d.trump?
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Isn't that the point? To damage Trump in any way possible while making his own abhorrent behavior more palatable and less guilty. Does POTUS grammar school grade pose any level of threat to the US? IS THIS WITCH HUNT GOING TO END? EVER? WHY?
Have a known felon testify! It's funny but sad at the same time! Isn't it illegal(or at least a moral thing) to release client information!!
We are all watching and tweeting the Cohen hearing . Interesting to see what your writers pick and choose to report. Cohen is contradicting his previous testimony. CNN reported catching him in a lie.
Yeah,but he is a convicted liar. How is he credible now?
This was a disgusting display of racism. Meadows needs to be censured. He’s a f*cking racist. Doesn’t have a clue. And, for her to allow herself to be used like a circus animal was disgusting.
Don't tell us what to watch for...FakeNews
😂 not much.
Watch for All the Lies.. But Don't make it a Drinking Game to take a shot with Every Lie...
Not afraid to throw anyone under the bus.
Dems with an agenda. Wasting taxpayers money on this circus. Not interested. MAGA! TRUMP 2020😄
The Dems have reached an all time low propping up a felon when there is real work to be done in Washington! WalkAway
Dems wasting time and tax money on this circus. Shameful . MAGA! Trump 2020
You forgot convicted liar.
The Dems may be leading this hearing, but the majority of the persons questioning Mr. Cohen are GOP. They are not asking relevant questions. The Dems are. So shameful!!!
Headline should read: 'Man Convicted of Lying to Congress Speaking to Congress Again.'
TDS. Meanwhile historic peace happening on the Korean peninsula. MSM will be dead in 3 years.
AP ,you missed the big news,he never went to Prague
Don’t forget to mention that Cohen is a convicted lier.
He has no credibility
danielleteresa0
Can we believe anything Cohen says?
I care about the Jeffrey Epstein deal and Acosta, and ties to the potus. Investigate that.
It's Sad That The Democrats are Left to Calling A Liar to Testify on Behalf of Their Agenda,Impeach The Man Who Honors God At A Time When God Was Being Removed&Not 1 Politician,in Fear of Political Suicide, Defended God! Trump May Be Many Things,Only 1 Counts to God HIS HONOR!
This guy will milk a bull just to prove he'll do anything to get air time or anything you want to say.
I wouldn't believe anything MichaelCohen212 says any more than I believe anything I hear on CNN.
He is going public. He is a known Liar that has been caught cheating on his taxes and is a corrupt lawyer that has been disbarred and will be going to prison. Why would anyone believe this guy? America is not that dumb
Summary of Cohen Testimony: - 1st Time in US History a man convicted of lying to Congress is brought in to testify to Congress as star witness - Said no Russian Collusion - Said nothing that amounts to a criminal offense - Last ditch effort by Dems given Mueller report is a dud
Poor Michael Cohen. He looks like a psychological wreck. If not for Mueller Trump probe Cohen probably would never have been convicted as nobody was ever convicted over lying to Congress or foreign activities tax evation.
The scene today - Democrats: eyes wide open; Republicans: eyes wide shut. The sufferer: Democracy
He'll say anything to avoid jail or receive a lesser sentence. Including joining the never trump side.
DON'T MISS THIS massive credibility bombshell. Cohen ADMITS to preparing & coordinating his congressional testimony with: - The DNC - Democratic Party leadership - Chairman Cummings - Chairman Adam Schiff - 'Various individuals' in the Democratic party This is a DNC hit job
He who is among you who has done no wrong, cast the first stone. Politics is ugly and base. All it's about is self-worship,& pointing the finger to make ones self look better and to feel ones own superiority. Beta males wanting to be Alpha males, and failing & controlling women🤮
Can't make this up, but I wonder if 45 is going to seek asylum in North Korea/Russia today. Wherearetrumpstoday
“Michael Cohen, convicted perjurer, stopped by Capital Hill on his way to prison.”
Love how the liberal media feels the need to call Trump’s former lawyer a “fixer” in order to make Donald Trump appear guilty. Tell me again how the liberal media is not trying to sabotage our president. Wake Up America.
*former not formal
hey AP, please tell your readers that Cohen and his lawyers colluded with the Dem House majority & RepAdamSchiff before testifying about realDonaldTrump It is important information. CNN NBCNews CBS MSNBC FoxNews DonaldJTrumpJr SebGorka seanhannity TuckerCarlson POTUS
What a circus. So absurd.
A hapless attempt at building a case against Trump and embarrassing his family. This will be another epic mistake by these witless Democrats.
Lies,lies and more lies
'I’ve dealt with Michael Cohen as the general counsel of the Trump Organization during his 12 years in that role,' Chris Wallace, said on Fox News. 'He was one of the meanest, most vengeful men I’ve ever dealt with in my half century in politics. He frankly was a thug.'
I love this! Let’s see how AP and the rest of the fake news media reacts when Cohen produces nothing but more lies.
I’m waiting for his nose to grow.
Mueller tactics again worked. Totally destroy a person. Bankrupt them,threaten family members,FBI strong arm interrogations. Cohen has been totally neutralized& dehumanized. Mueller has done it again just like in the past. Mueller a really dirty cop.
Does he have trump taxes record?
Meanwhile Trump is negotiating denuclearization with North Korea but where is the media coverage? Instead, this hearing is conveniently timed so that we are listening to a man who is going to federal prison for lying to Congress. CohenHearing CohenTestimony
IDK *President Trump, is damage proof sorry to say.
Weren’t some of his lies told to cover up Trumps lies? Lol
Oh good grief, AP! I can hear your panting. Disgusting. *pant!* *pant!* *pant!*
Watch him lick his own ass....what a dope
The who's who of unethical Democrat dirtbags spinning yarns with Cohen. What a detestable group of total pukes.
No damage. The testimony will change no one’s minds.
Why do you have to mention this is a 'Democrat-led panel?' As they are in the majority in Congress, of course they are going to be the majority and lead the panel. Do better
I'd rather watch paint dry
Impeach!
Heard so far: Trump is a shrewd businessman. Trump is a mean person. Trump had a speakerphone. Trump used a personal checking account. Trump broke no laws. Revelations - none CohenHearing
RacistConmanCheatTrump 🆘TrumpIsGuilty 🆘
Almost as bad as Avenatti.....Cohen is a sleeze, he would do anything to keep his paychecks coming
He's also going to jail. Don't forget that.
How can you trust this guy? Already lied to congress once. SMH
Hey AP - report the news and stop speculating...it doesn't suit you well.
This is all set up by the left, clear as day
He’s already going to prison. Don’t be so stupid. It’s hard to admit you got dupped but you did.
If Cohen is a convicted Liar why would anybody want to listen to what he has to say?
Hope donny jr is in front of a tv
Cannot trust any reporting from Ass. Press.
BE AWARE: realDonaldTrump is the cure for left wing idiosyncrasies... The 'dog press' barks and the caravan moves on.
He sure sounds humble, logical, remorseful, and credible; I think .... Trump might just be in trouble now!
Not interested. Is there any more real news today?
More fcking lies!!
What’s sad is that, Trump can kill someone right now with video evidence, and his supporters will still make excuses..
Does anyone find it odd that Lanny Davis a Clinton operative and long time friend is Cohens lawyer! Didn’t this whole thing start over a fake dossier by Clinton’s!
When is his book coming out?
This is gonna be good. If the GOP still had the House, this probably wouldn't be happening.
Who cares.
Cohen is making a pit stop on his way to prison. He is going to prison for lying to congress and law enforcement. TheDemocrats thought bringing a felon who lied before congress back to lie again about the president.
He is wasting his time MAGA2020
This guy! Really? He is such a friggin liar! He’s just trying to find a place to fit in with the Democrats since he clearly has burned every bridge in the Republican Party. What a POS!
Seen better lawyers act on tv, this isnt breaking news its the same bullshit the last 2 years, get outta here
I can't look at this face any more
Cohen just said, 'President Trump did not tell me to lie to Congress.' MichaelCohen
Here's what to watch for: another charge and conviction for lying to Congress
Isn't this guy a convicted liar? Wouldn't he do and say anything to stay out of jail? What an interesting contrast...in Canada we have a lawyer willing to gut her own reputation on keeping the secrets because she is supposed to..in the states the tell them for a book deal.
I wouldn't believe this man. Everyone 1 of these People in Congress Have Lawyers that do this kind of thing All The Time, Whether or Not it's True. It's quicker, easier & quieter. Plus, they don't waste time & money on fighting untruths.
I'd rather watch snow melt than these clowns.
Here's what to know. Cohen has been convicted of lying to Congress.
Congressional entertainment.... While real work For the US goes undone for 2 more years
Something will eventually stick. Maybe? Hopefully. Our impeachment dreams are dying, send help.
Watch for a known liar trying to save time in prison, what time should he be believe now at this testimony or the previous ones. We can't believe a word this man says.
Trump is holding the most important meetings since the end of WW2 and your more interested in a liar lawyer who recorded clients without consent and yet none of the recording proved his statements.
OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE JUST BROKE ITS OWN RULES TO CONTINUE OBSTRUCTING AND SPREADING LIES.
If you can’t see this is a setup the narrative has you!
Political 🎪 when realDonaldTrump is aiming peace in NOKO Democrats are worried POTUS (before being President) sexual life? Shouldn’t they be worried about security, Healthcare, Education, The consequences of their smearing political tactics? And the magic money for illusions?
A fixer for the deep state! What a weasel!
Rat
If we see what Mueller charged him with, he doesn't know that much. What is the tax cheat going to tell us what the tax laws are that Trump violated. Obviously, he doesn't know them. It will be all speculation. Also rats are loved in prison Mike. Have fun.
Watching Meadows and other GOP legislators desperately trying to protect Trump by delaying hearing.
So was MichaelCohen212 lying the last time he testified or is he going to be lying today? CNN is probably scratching their heads.
Started and already BS from the GOP! What the hell are they afraid of
The Cartoon Network has a simulcast live stream too
If Trump live tweets the whole thing, he knows Cohen's got nothing. If he stays quiet, he's toast.
He is trying to get the house democrats to write a sentence reduction recommendation letter to the federal judge, so he can be release early from his federal sentence that he starts in May, be agreeing to testify against trump.
So he's a convicted lier! Why would we believe anything he says?
No one but Dems care ... Mulller had scripted his testimony
Game show is under way. Attempting to derail the hearing.
No it won't. They are trying to set a fake narrative. WikiLeaks had already stated publicly that the drop was coming.
He is going to jail for lying to Congress and all of you are going nutty over him talking to Congress again lol
Former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen arrives to testify before Congress.
The lies. Watch for the lies.
