49/ Press:
Prosecutor: When it became public, Michael Cohen lied. He has a criminal record. Cohen will testify that he pled guilty and went to jail, for the Karen McDougal payoff, and Storm Daniels. Also tax fraud and laying to a bank and Congress
Cohen's testimony is backed up w other witnesses: David Pecker and Keith Davidson. We have records and will show them to you, sometimes at length. This is about a criminal conspiracy and a cover up. 👉🏼We are confident you will have no reasonable doubt
46/ Phang:
👉🏼The first 2 checks were paid from the Donald J. Trump Revocable Trust. Trump was the beneficiary of that trust.
The remaining checks were paid from Trump's personal bank accounts and Trump signed those checks himself while he was President.
45/ Phang:
👉🏼THIS: Colangelo says Trump Org couldn't cut Cohen a check with the memo line reading: "Reimbursement for porn star payoff."
“So they agreed to cook the books” and made it look like the reimbursement to Cohen was actually income for services rendered.
Cohen submitted fake invoices for reimbursement. Trump's accounting staff at Trump Tower processed every one of those fake invoices and recorded them in their ledgers falsely as legal services payments.

The "pro-Palestine" movement is pro-Hamas. Always has been.

Any sane person would understand the cross-examination would be catastrophic
But when has Trump done the sane thing?

Texas is an evil, evil place, Exhibit 63,005: "Emergency rooms refused to treat pregnant patients, leaving one woman to miscarry in a lobby restroom"
And just so there could be no doubt Cotton specified that he thought they ought to be thrown off of bridges and have their skin torn off and so forth.
Cotton has what you might call a zest for the murder of US citizens. For example, he wrote an op-ed in our increasingly fascist-friendly paper of record, The New York Times, calling for summary public military execution of the thousands of protesters against police brutality.
Pro tip: When you attack someone over their background, that's bigotry.
Nobody chooses their background and it doesn't matter.
So if someone's claiming that your background should be concealed because it's "provocative", they're siding with the bigots.
It truly is as if we're living in two different nations: one where people understand the reality that more guns results in more gun violence, and one where state legislatures ignore the lessons provided by the rest of the civilized world and bow down to the well-founded gun lobby, giving their fear-addled constituents the toys of violence they demand.
