As expected, Michael Cohen threw his former boss, President Donald Trump, under the bus during Congressional testimony on Wednesday. The former attorney provided the House Oversight Committee with copies of Trump’s financial statements.
Cohen, who was disbarred this week, also provided a copy of a $35,000 check he claims was paid as “hush money” to Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal.
Cohen claims the checks were signed by Donald Trump, Jr. during Trump’s presidency.
A Trump official said Don Jr. was not aware at the time he signed the check that it was intended as payments to any women. Don Jr. reportedly believed the checks he signed were reimbursement for Cohen.
Cohen told the committee he artificially inflated the president’s net worth at Trump’s direction. He said he believes Trump and his son Don Jr. knew about the efforts to build a Trump Tower in Moscow.
Cohen claimed he witnessed a chat between the President and Don Jr. that he believes provides proof that Trump and his son knew about the Moscow project.
Cohen referred to Trump as “unpatriotic” and a racist.
“I am ashamed because I know what Mr. Trump is. He is a racist. He is a conman. He is a cheat,” Cohen said.
He recalled an incident when Trump said, “I can shoot somebody on 5th Avenue and get away with it.”
Rep. Jody Hice (R-GA) reminded Cohen that he is a “convicted liar” who testified before the committee during a prior hearing where he testified “under oath” as he is doing today.
Hice asked Cohen whether the committee should believe he was lying then but not lying now.
“Here we are today with … a convicted liar, lying to Congress, a criminal. I believe this witness is totally incompatible with the stated goal of having to seek the truth in this hearing.”
Hice added: “This is the first time in the history of Congress, we have someone testifying here that has already been convicted of lying to Congress. So congratulations for being the first in Congress to do that.”
Cohen responded sarcastically, “Thank you.”
Cohen added that he lied before Congress in order to protect Trump.
“I am not protecting Mr. Trump anymore,” Cohen said.
In 2018, Cohen was convicted of lying to Congress, campaign finance violations, and multiple counts of income tax evasion.
He must report to a federal prison to begin serving his three year sentence on March 6.

Michael Cohen: “Water is wet.”
Might as well since he’s going down take them with u in my Nino Brown voice!
Chile ….. catching up https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/4415c9c0502d34a46a8dfe146c27657ae11a8190de7e1dbc18eaecaaf2374497.gif it’s smash city over here and these T”s
These petty folks on the committee though. Caping for a thug, LOL
They got in his ass pretty good but he seemed to hold up well. All things considered. I’m sick of all the lying liars. And I do mean ALL.
I love the narrative coming out of Trump dolts lol that Michael Cohen can’t be trusted because he committed perjury, in essence, because he lied. The purpose of the lies Michael Cohen told Congress was to cover up crimes by the President of the United States. And he’s now going to jail for those lies. And if he tells even more lies today, he could add even more jail time. That’s why Paul Manfort is going to die in jail, because he continued to tell lies while in a cooperation agreement with federal prosecutors.
So saying Michael Cohen is a liar today, is tacitly admitting that the President committed a felony. Because that’s why he lied in the first place.
? ?
The original lie has come back to haunt him.
The boy who cried wolf.
Who?
Micheal Cohen.
Ooh..I thought you meant Individual 1.
Yeah they seem to be digging into him pretty good.
They are about to descend on this post like flies swarming a pile of trump.
This entire comment section will be a sh!tshow of deflections, denials, and I expect Hillary’s and Obama’s names to be mentioned quite a bit too.
Cohen details Trump’s disparaging comments about African Americans
Michael Cohen notes that the president has been accused of courting white supremacists, but he claims the reality is “worse”. “He once asked me if I could name a country run by a black person that wasn’t a ‘sh**hole.’ This was when Barack Obama was president of the United States,” Cohen plans to say. “While we were once driving through a struggling neighborhood in Chicago, he commented that only black people could live that way. And, he told me that black people would never vote for him because they were too stupid.”
This made me laugh ?
Love me some Wiz. Love this gif lol
Cohen went up in there like a scorned woman who kept every dinner receipt n valentines day card 2 show 2the wife when u piss her off. Comey looking at this saying dayum l thought l had receipts. Cohen learned a hard lesson u protect your wife n family not a friend.
If YOU are a liar then you surround yourself with other liars. Cohen is going to prison. When will Don follow his friends?
He cool Chile? eating and scoping !!??
I want to see all of the trolls who cape for Trump defend this.
Did U see that Black woman standing up ready to testify?? Just because Don didn’t spit in Your face doesn’t mean he hasn’t done it to others!
At this point, Cohen has zero reason to lie. Lock Dump up.
That’s what I’m saying. As soon as Trump’s henchman get caught up, the Repubs want to call them liars and frauds. If your man is so clean, why is everybody that he associates with dirty? His supporters take stupid to another level.

Rudy ugly azz going down as well. Remember when he got on télévision n said we got something up our sleeve the famous october surprise.
Exactly. You want to know what U look like…look at your friends.
he has a conviction for Lying so what does he have to lose by lying?
Michael Cohen is being way too cooperative and respectful with the republicans. I want him to have the same “go fuk yourself” energy the repubs allowed their witnesses to have towards dems when they were in control.

Lol I love it. Cohen just shi–ed on those Republicans.
Cohen has been answering each of the Republican questions about his crimes and said this to the republicans..
Mr. Chairman (in response to Jim toxic waste Jordan..look him up) I thought I was coming here to answer questions about the President. I’ve confessed to what i’ve done wrong, i’ll continue to do so, and i’m paying the ultimate price for that (meaning jail time) and I find it odd that i haven’t been asked not one question by any republican member of this committe about what I know or what I just testified about Donald Trump. Not one.
Oop.
I wish paris dennard was still around 2 defend this so l can get my laugh on Wonder what dump other lil brown nuggets silk n polyester gotta say about this. They aint trying 2 get their checks cut off .Rachel n lawrence gonna be lit tonight.

I feel her
My whole mood in a GIF. LMAO
Sounds about yt
What did she say?
Nobody is stopping him from working. Except maybe his Twitter time. And Trump tells more lies than a little bit.
Please he treats the white house like a airbnb.
I just gasped for air. A LOT of air!
“African Americans” was all over The Donald before he became president. Those niccas got their wake-up call from their white masters. If they don’t diss The Donald their careers are finished.
Here is a song about The Donald from the group called The Time who worked with Prince. The song is called “Donald Trump Black Version.” Plus there are photos (some I got from another poster here) of The Donald with some of the same people that hate him now because they are cowards!

Song About The Donald (from black folks)

There is no honor among crooks. He knew he had to cover himself.
Cohen up there dropping tea and before going on to the next question they are like is there anything ELSE you wanna share on this Mr. Cohen??
Cohen: https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/97a5f129b0cd22512413f248998fe2d1f33e0690666314302b9bfb3b27c563eb.gif
Have you seen that Clay Higgins? Saw him for the first time last night. Speaks like someone from the 18th century. Every time he speaks I feel like making the sign of the cross.
She told the Cummings to continue as Jones was over his time.
LOL
Why should we believe this guy, He lied once another le wont make any difference..
yep hill and o were liars too…
He lied because the Clown Commander in Thief gave him an order to do so. Perjury at this point would cost him more than what he is already about to pay..
And?
Green money blinds the blackest people into thinking his orange ass wasn’t racist. When Donald deals with his own he sees his peers, when he deals with black people he only sees green. He goes where the money is and anyone stupid enough NOT to see this is sad in truth. Where is there one regular person in that picture. When have you seen Donald actually in any non rich black community unless it was to garner votes? let me know when you got that info..
You sound crazy. He’s been doing stuff since back in his player days in NY. People up north never claimed him. ?
Yeah he threw him under the bus then ran over him!!! Oh WELL!
The Donald in the photo is the same person now. You sound like a trained dog. You just repeat what white liberals tell you just like the black celebrities in the photos. The brainwashing has worked well on you and shows that white folks still hold black people as slaves. The Donald is one of the best opportunities in years for the “ordinary” black person to receive the type of assistance needed like cleaning up Shitcago. But no, the dumb azz so-called black leaders didn’t want to meet with The Donald. Any ordinary black person would have had the opportunity to meet with The Donald but the dumb azz coons block their path. Even if the photos showed The Donald with ordinary black folks (like the photo in the oval office) you’d still say he is racist because you’re a trained dog by white liberals.
The Donald wanted to give vouchers so that people in the inner city can go to better schools but noooooo the coons didn’t want that. The Donald wants to stop illegal immigration, But noooo he’s a racist because you know immigration hurts black folks the most but that doesn’t matter. While
The Donald is in Asia stopping nukes from hitting our shores you stuck on a distraction by a traitor liar Cohen. What a fool you are. I admire this president’s perseverance and courage because goodness knows the enemies of America like you. The illegal loving, baby killing (infanticide), LGBTUWGFZ supporting, government dependent, brainwashed follower of white liberals like yourself is doing nothing but destroying this country. If you can’t see through all this bullsh*t then you are a very, very, very stupid person and there’s nothing more you can say to me. Toodles Bye Child
Cohen is just like the hoes that get mad and tell the wife when the husband dumps them. ?Bih, get out my face. You wasn’t saying that when you was fvcking and sucking him.
You sound like house nigga looking for masters approval you bitch you.. I don’t subscribe to the thoughts of ignorant coons who sangs and dances real good for massah..catch a brick to the face hoe..
It’s a white troll
Didn’t watch the so called hearing because Fake News, isn’t my thing but I did my research on Cohen.I researched Cohen through independent sites as well as court transcripts.
Michael Cohen was recently disbarred from practicing law. He has been slapped with a felony and will be going to prison for lying to congress as well in a court of law. Michael Cohen stated in the hearing that he has never been to Prague,so there goes the Russian conspiracy that many Demwits thrive on.He told many lies in this fiasco and of course he was coached by Hank Johnson/Adam Schiff and otherTrump hating Democrats.
Cohen had always spoke of President Trump being a honorable man up until he was convicted of a crime,so now he repeat the lies that Democrats want you to believe. The fact that Dems deem Cohen credible speaks volume….
Last but not least,Cohen motive for turning against President Trump was the fact that President Trump would not hire him as Chief of Staff which he lobbied big time for. He is also mad that President Trump whom he deemed a man of credibility did not use his clout as President to make that felony dissappear…

These niggazz don’t know shyt!
They believe everything they see on Fake News which convey they have no thought process let alone the drive to do independent research.
You would think that Trump supporters would respect Cohen and appreciate him going that extra mile to protect their leader. Every Trump supporter would lie to protect 45 if he asked them to. This is not debatable.
They are so STUPID Debut THEIR stupidity set our people back. Many are too d@mn prideful to admit they are wrong.
These fools are too d@mn stupid to see who the real racists are.The real racists and fbeir Black gatekeepers keep Black Democrats constantly focusing on race. They keep hammering racism because they have lost a significant number of the Black vote,so they want the “runaway slaves” back on the plantation.
These people are not interested in reasoned arguments. They aren’t interested in facts. It’s all about their “feelings.” The facts hurt them because they want something for nothing. What the left-libtards gives them is an illusion. They give identity groups status because of their skin color, because they are LBGTQSRT, because they are Hispanic, because they are women, transgender, and the list goes on. Never mind if they haven’t done anything to warrant status. If they belong to one of these groups it’s automatic status and they are favored based on that premise alone.The left Demoncraps builds an “artificial world” for them. They live in it and cry like babies when you don’t agree with them. These people are weak and deep down inside they know it. They are ruining this country and the best we can do is separate from them.
All I gots to say is I can’t wait for them to get this stupid MoFo out of office.

Well for one, hel’ll lose more years of his freedom, away from his family, if he lies again.
Are you referring to me? ?
So true…
This is why I rarely talk politics with them because they’ve been extremely brainwashed by Fake News. It’s a waste of time trying to discuss politics with people who are allergic to facts.
Tell me this which of trump policies have harmed America?
He’s racist? Hmmmmmm.. ???? oh no..
Cohen said hell, if I am going down, We All going down.
I know. He was saying it too nicely and not getting raw and dirty with it.
When his presidency ends
He didn’t stutter!!
At this point..what does Cohen have to loose? I tip my hat at him when he said” I made some mistakes, and now I am going to own up to them”
Mel, are you really smelly?
Nah I smell like Roses pun intended
L0l!
