Michael Cohen House Oversight Committee Testimony Megathread

[Karpatsky]

Man, the anti-Semitism just comes right out as soon as you get angry, doesn’t it?

LOL I called him a lying rat.

Reread the first sentence of your post.

Calling the son of a holocaust survivor 'big nosed' is quite different from calling someone with a bad spray tan orange, as it would be to call someone of African descent a 'monkey' compared to a WASP with a tendency towards seemingly confused speech - but I'm sure you know this. A word of advice, your choice of dog whistle is very audible - maybe next time try calling him a 'globalist'.

Look at all the Republicans getting defensive and screaming they aren't getting defensive. Highly amusing, especially from our resident soulless cultist in Ohio.

I am being honest. I love the President, I think he's great, and every thing goes his way. Remember the crap I took during the Kavanaugh hearings? What happened? Nothing. He's on the Supreme Court. It's done. I don't even think Nixon would have left office due to Watergate had it occurred in today's day and age. I think much of this is political and I have long stressed that we should never, never talk impeachment or anything unless under extreme circumstances.

I don't understand why Democrats don't prepare impeachment. Or bills to create it.

You cannot impeach someone just because you disagree with their policies. This is why I roll my eyes at stupid conservatives who say "Impeach Obama!" No matter how much you disagree, no laws were broken. We have to stop this already.

Even under Obama. I highly disagree that we should try and overthrow election results from the people. That's why I hate political investigations or judicial activism.

According to Twitter the media is loving Amash for being "maverick-y" and asking somewhat serious questions. Is there any truth to him not being one of the GOP puppets during the hearing?

[Inmate Trump]

“He once asked me if I could name a country run by a black person that wasn’t a ‘sh**thole.’ This was when Barack Obama was President of the United States.”

”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.”


If you still support Trump, I question your patriotism and your integrity.

Lol....thats why they voted for him. Trump is a racist and the GOP is the fourth incarnation of the Klan.

He was the only Republican so far to ask legitimate questions.

Yes, he asked serious and reasonable questions.

Well, frankly that has been the case since 2015.

True.

The level of repulsiveness of the modern GOP is astonishing.  The rate at which they’ve dropped their morals and values simply to appease and bow before the likes of Donald Trump is disgusting.

The modern Republican party is a combination of a racket and a cult.

Cohen says he had never been to Prague or the Czech Republic

[NYSforKennedy2024]

Holy campaign finance/banking/law/ethics/marital/everything violations.

[Xing]

The true litmus test of being a Republican is never taking Trump's d*** out of your mouth. News at 11.

He's only been to Praha in Czechia.

Guys: don’t engage with trolling. Report anti-Semitic comments to moderators and we can keep this thread on topic.

I reported it almost as soon as it was posted (just reported it a second time).  All due respect, but the post is still there and presumably he hasn’t been sent a moderator warning.  I’m pretty sure I’d get a mod warning in a shorter amount of time if I changed my username to “Reaganfan is an anti-Semitic racist” even though that’s an objectively true statement.

No moderator who moderates the board has been around to take needed action. It as of this typing remains unresolved but the reported post (that has been reported 6 times) is literally the first apparent post on the reported post log, so I expect action as soon as said moderator of USGD becomes online but none of the non-USGD can take direct action on that particular post.

Fair enough and thanks for clarifying; I appreciate it!

 I found it disturbing that Cohen spoke of Trump as basically a mob boss. He seldom talks on the phone, doesn't use electronic communications, deals mostly with family and close associates, directs people into actions without asking, has known criminal associates not only in his inner circle but with an office on his same floor of his base of operations.

 I think Mueller won't prove collusion unless he has extensive electronics records or somebody who flipped and can prove or testify to that. These dudes operate like criminals. Trump is so outlandish that his conspiracy in plain sight almost works as a defense. Trump tells Russia to hack Clinton's emails but it's just a joke, like c'mon he's joking, that's the Donald.

 And like most mob style families the pampered son is always more stupid than the boss. Donald Trump is way dumber than Fred Trump, Don Jr. is even dumber than his father Donald.

This is indictable evidence. Impeachment and indictment charges should be filed, " obstruction of justice" for removing an FBI agent in middle of investigation, and directing lawyer to lie to investigators. Let SCOTUS decide if sitting president should be indicted.

It's because he'd been to Bohemia instead. Checkmate.

[CatoMinor]

Reaganfan, considering Cohen's nose seems normal sized, and he is Jewish, is it not a fair assumption that your phrasing of "big nosed" crosses a line?

[P. Clodius Pulcher did nothing wrong]

I wish we had more con men-turned-rats like Cohen to expose their sleazy bosses. I also just wish it didn't take so long for Cohen to come clean……
