GO MICHAEL! I’m so happy he no longer looks stressed and depressed.
I was just thinking the same thing.. He actually smiles now.
@booger4203 You seem very confused. What did Cohen have to do with either impeachment?
@The Blessings Of Jesus Channel 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
@booger4203 How is Cohen lying now? How could Donnie have been out of office a long time ago if the DOJ won’t indict a sitting President? Not very smart, are you?
@Luke J ” the only reason hes speaking out is to stay out of jail right?”.
Oh dear, someone hasn’t done his homework. Must try harder. C-
“Weisselberg? Never knew him. I had pictures taken with a lot of people. That doesn’t mean I knew them. He may have gotten me a cup of coffee.”
@Steve Austin obviously a trumpian autobot
@Duke Blair Apperently over 74 million people voted LEGALLY!!!!!
@jon henry Trump handled Covid-19 with with his fast responses, including warp speed.
@Janice LeftwichThis is true and quite scary. Who would want Trump to be their leader?
@Gogetter 1 Brown That’s exactly what you have now!! Hope you all enjoy the recession! We need leaders not Treasonous TRADORS!!!
Weiselberg will sing like a Von Trapp in a room full of edelweiss” (Seinfeld episode reference)
From here on this shall be called ‘Da Shaggy Defense’…
Ikr😄
Its NOT going to happen. The Father, Son and Holy Spirit are putting President Trump back in Office as President of The United States in 2021 and all of Satan’s plots and schemes WILL NOT WORK!!!
YOU LOSE SATAN IN THE NAME OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST!!!
That’s ALL you’re got Satan? That’s all you’re got Trump haters????
Oh come on!!! Russian collusion lies??? Michael Avennati??? Robert Mueller??? 2 sham impeachments??? Stolen elections???? Tax stupidity and threats of indictments????
THATS ALL YOU’VE GOT?????
😂😂😂😂😄😄😄
C’MON, TRY HARDER!!!! HARDER!!!!
THE FATHER, SON AND HOLY SPIRIT LAUGH AT YOU!!!!
“The Lord LAUGHS AT the wicked, for He sees his day is coming!”
The Living God is PROTECTING TRUMP AND NOBODY AND NOTHING CAN OR WILL BE ABLE TO STOP HIM BECAUSE GOD’S HAND IS ON HIM.
Now, go cry on Michael Avennati and Robert Mueller’s shoulders!!!
“Wasn’t me!”
😜😂
@The Blessings Of Jesus Channel you should Not have the right to be preaching for anything especially in Jesus Christ name. Do not call yourself a disciple if you pretty much support someone that blatantly disrespected Jesus Christ himself
You’re supposed to be better than that as some sort of pastor or anything within religion.
will he take the stand?? Popcorn, stand ready and stand by.
Cohen: “Oh no no no… I have more info to give if they need me or call on me I’m there.”
With a grin glad to see them go down🤣🤣
It’s my wet dream, and it’s about to come true!
I’m not mad at him 😉
@Andrew Newton TRDUMP IS THE REASON THE COUNTRY IS IN THIS SITUATION. HE STARTED THE FIRE AND FANNED THE FLAMES!!!
@Andrew Newton But Trump said that he made America great again. Which is it, Andrew?
@Mylene what are you going on about since your bumchum has been in office the country is literally on fire as for you you’re in a cult you clown
“ … classic Shaggy Defense” 😂🤣 that was actually really funny. Nice one 👍
Ari is the Man
…honey came in and she caught me red handed
THAT’S ONE OF THE PRETTIEST GRINS I’VE EVER SEEN IN MY LIFE!!!
and getting bigger all the time. I’d call it laughing, almost

@The Blessings Of Jesus Channel Wow! Are you okay? You sound delusional!
@The Blessings Of Jesus Channel The lady doth protest too much, methinks. However much you wish ’twere true, the Lord knows that you have picked a loser, a skallywag, a veritable thief and popinjay. A swellhead whom, without a doubt, is destined for incarceration, deserving nought of pity for his own actions hath cast himself down.
Michael Cohan is becoming a hero. It’s never too late to do the right thing. History will remember you kindly sir.
Love Michaels podcast Mea Culpa.
Those beautiful 500-pound chickens are finally coming home to roost.
Watermarks
I’m in financial growth institute, also a trader in bitcoin mining stock and other crypto currencies, have you ever heard anything about Bitcoin mining?
Those aren’t “500-pound chickens”, they’re velociraptors!
Hello ,how are you?
I’m pretty sure Mr. Cohen wants Trump to know he’s the one that burned his organization to the ground. XD
People create their own storms, then get mad when it rains.
The same can be said for the Clintons and Hunter Biden – nothing going on there. I guess the woman who whose campaign promise was to get Donald Trump thinks they are squeaky clean. That’s good for them!
And when it’s raining, Trump asks if we can nuke it 🤣🤣🤣
@Don Kantner 🤦
@Don Kantner Ur really sick in the head sweetie.
@John Smith 👍 if you say so.
I’ve gotten my hopes up too many times to believe it before it actually happens. Let’s me know when he is in handcuffs and orange.
It’ll never happen. And if you keep bringing it up, msnbc trolls will accuse you of being a russian.
@Florin Jurcovici I don’t get that channel but I’ve searched for anything that is fair and gives a both sides of the story and not just one
@susan ferrie the country falling apart and you’re still going on about trump, sad
@CLAUDEMONSTER ha ha ha, look at the country and what Biden has done, and you still have the balls to go on about trump, give your head a wobble
@Andrew Newton OK NEWT I’ve got the balls and the brain’s to look for the real news but you seem to be one of the brain washed people that have only one option so keep your blinds on
Micheal Cohen has a peaceful look on his face, he actually looks at peace
Satan must have promised to let cohen be his number one fk buddy!
To bad all convicted felons can’t serve their time in a luxury manhattan apartment with a willing bed partner. Yep, $$$USA$$$ justice.
@wade stanton Lets be honest though, Cohen was just a fall guy. The really deserving criminals are still on the lose.
@Kevin McDuffie That’s funny. That’s what I’ve been thinking about the Chosen Cheeto, Donald Trump.
I really like this guy! He’s evolved into a good human. And if he helps to bring down the family of GRIFTERS… that’s bonus points!
Yeah, nothing wrong with making a mistake so long as you fix it and he’s done real well 💯
What an amazing story in redemption. A few years ago he seemed like quite the despicable person.
Michael is at peace with himself. Never too late.
I had the same thoughts watching this. Watching the clips of him testifying before Congress and remembering how his voice trembled throughout it, to now him saying HIS hours talking to the Feds have spawned 18 investigations. It is never too late to change. Mr. Cohen is living proof. His podcast will be very interesting to listen to as these cases go forward, He has some great guests.
I think that technically speaking he isn’t quite at peace with it all yet. I think he has a strong attachment to seeing these people go down bigtime and to being personally involved in that process. I hope he gets to see this all happen … and then I hope he finds new ways to define himself going forward. Wishing him all the best … and grateful for his decision to reveal these people for who they are.
“it wasnt me – Classic shaggy defence” LOL thx for that 😂
🤣🤣🤣
I won’t believe that weasle is going to jail until I see him in cuffs on a prison bus.
He’s going to jail, they’re just untangling the web, but it’s going to happen. It would have never happened if he won, and he know that. He has no control now
He’ll have to go live somewhere else
Bro, people used to say that same thing about Al Capone and he was supposed to be untouchable. Capone had all the police, politicians and judges on his payroll and still couldn’t escape the wrath of Uncle Sam when it came to taxes.
I really enjoy a Michael Cohen interview.
Revenge is sweet for him. And to have done time for what he did, it has set him free. He can smile now.
Good for you Michael Cohen!
Agree
Still a Trump crooked attorney. Just mad he got in trouble. Glad he’s helping but still a class-1 felon.
“I don’t think Weisselberg will let his children go to jail.”
I don’t think anyone will ever say the same thing about Donald.
I love that. Beautifully said! 😂😂😂😂
Shoot 45 with an 45, AK-47 and don’t play nice
He really has managed to redeem himself, God bless him.
The orange clown is going down.
Hello how are you doing?
