      Trump counts every penny. He would never have consented to a $260K payment to Cohen for legal expenses when he could have gotten away with $130K for a disbursement unless he INTENDED for the payment to be RECORDED as a business expense rather than a disbursement. That's the whole case right there.

That’s called propaganda for your mind. News gives fax and let you come to your own conclusion.. Both sides of the political aisle are corrupt with insider trading and special interest interest group payouts. Both sides hate one man because he threatens the piggy bank with term limits. Trump. We send hundreds of billions to Iran and Venezuela both who support Hamas , we send billions to Ukraine 10% kickback to the big guy, we send billions to Israel… None of this strikes. She was odd? Military industrial complex makes no money under Trump. He’s against war. people that support Trump don’t always like his ways but simply are trying to stop hyper inflation, the fall of the American dollar for the great reset, trying to stop open borders estimated 9 million people came through by the end of this year, cartels are gaining strength and power, trying to stop world wars… We knew it would happen and here. We . Are.
      The only reason the alphabet agencies allow the politicians to get all these kickbacks because they’re part of the same team. Trump said there needs to be more checks and balances, term limits.
      we’ve known media is corrupt for 20 years. That’s why we all switched for online, now that’s also co-opted.

      In my experience, going directly to the source is the only way to make informed decisions about a subject that interests you.
      Listening strictly to opinionated summaries (like Ari has given us today) is how we got “stop the steal” and the J6 insurrection.
      It is time every bit as well spent (for some) as spending that time - say - writing and/or recording a song.
      I have spent many hours reading full transcripts, reports or congressional bills in order to make an informed decision and be able to express my reasoning.
      This is historical in that it is the first time in American history that a firmer POTUS is being tried in a criminal court. It’s important and fascinating….and admittedly sad that we have fallen so far.

    I've said this before, but it seems fitting with this video too. Todd Blanche should pay attention to Cohen and be taking notes, in a few short years, he could be sitting where Cohen is now.

    Michael Cohen doesn’t sell the merch. It’s from the MeidasTouch store! He doesn’t make any money from it.

      ​@@pete846 That's the whole thing about MeidasTouch -- it's *ACCURATE* reporting whether you or anyone else likes it or not. They "don't blow smoke or sunshine" -- just honest reporting and breakdowns between law and politics.
      Maybe ethanweeter meant biased in that they, MeidasTouch, report against djt. But, hey, as I said, they only report the truth. If djt wasn't such a despicable person, maybe MeidasTouch would have something nice to say about him.
