Pretty amazing the blood, the 7 00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:23,919 Speaker 1: sacrifice that so many gave for all of us. No 8 00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:26,720 Speaker 1: greater love hath any Man is there when you think 9 00:00:26,720 --> 00:00:30,360 Speaker 1: about it, I will tell you. And before we get 10 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:32,600 Speaker 1: to the ins and outs of all that's been happening 11 00:00:32,600 --> 00:00:36,240 Speaker 1: with closing arguments in this sham New York courtroom today, 12 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:40,559 Speaker 1: let me just give you a quick headline. As the 13 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:44,199 Speaker 1: defense is now I'm sorry with the prosecution is now begun. 14 00:00:45,120 --> 00:00:52,199 Speaker 1: They're closing arguments. I am completely stunned, absolutely stunned at 15 00:00:52,200 --> 00:00:57,960 Speaker 1: the fact that the prosecution is spending so much time 16 00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:05,080 Speaker 1: in efforts to rehabilitate Cone's disastrous testimony. And I think 17 00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:09,200 Speaker 1: it just speaks volumes that they sound desperate, and the 18 00:01:09,240 --> 00:01:12,480 Speaker 1: same with Stormy Daniels. They're trying to rehabilitate her image 19 00:01:12,480 --> 00:01:15,080 Speaker 1: with the jury, and I mean to get to the 20 00:01:15,120 --> 00:01:17,600 Speaker 1: point that there are so many lies that they even 21 00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:22,040 Speaker 1: they realize that they have to rationalize, which is why 22 00:01:22,280 --> 00:01:25,480 Speaker 1: the prosecution, this guy Steinlass is given the clothes for 23 00:01:25,640 --> 00:01:29,119 Speaker 1: the prosecution, you know, then says, oh, well, forget about Cone. 24 00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:32,759 Speaker 1: There's there's a mountain of other evidence. What other mountain 25 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,880 Speaker 1: of evidence? And if so, why did you bring him 26 00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:39,640 Speaker 1: on the stand to begin with? I mean, it's pretty unbelievable. 27 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:42,600 Speaker 1: He starts out by telling the jury the noise, you know, 28 00:01:42,760 --> 00:01:45,480 Speaker 1: go tune out the noise, the side show of the defense. 29 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 1: Con is understandably angry because he he's the only one 30 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:54,800 Speaker 1: paying the price. Understandably angry. He's selling t shirts of 31 00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,840 Speaker 1: Donald Trump in jail and admitting he will profit if, 32 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:01,160 Speaker 1: in fact, on the outcome of this case. This is 33 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:06,080 Speaker 1: a convicted liar, admitted liar, proven liar, and also a 34 00:02:06,120 --> 00:02:08,639 Speaker 1: thief on top of it. And then to have to, 35 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 1: you know, go into this long drawn out defense of 36 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:16,040 Speaker 1: Michael Cohne. You can't blame Cone selling merchandise and making 37 00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 1: money on Donald Trump. Well, it certainly goes to the 38 00:02:19,520 --> 00:02:23,440 Speaker 1: heart of the motives of their star witness. Of course, 39 00:02:23,720 --> 00:02:26,600 Speaker 1: of course you can blame him for that that he 40 00:02:26,639 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 1: hasn't that he has a that he'll benefit from the 41 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:30,320 Speaker 1: outcome in this case. 42 00:02:31,240 --> 00:02:33,560 Speaker 2: And yeah, Stormy Daniel's story is messy. 43 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:37,079 Speaker 1: I cannot believe how defensive they are and and this 44 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:42,120 Speaker 1: effort at rehabilitating them. And anyway, Combe was was convicted 45 00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,000 Speaker 1: of a crime that was that Trump's direction. That immediately 46 00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:49,320 Speaker 1: got an objection, rightly so, because there's no evidence that 47 00:02:49,400 --> 00:02:53,080 Speaker 1: was brought forth in this trial that says any of that. 48 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:57,160 Speaker 1: Just the opposite, regardless of what Cone may have testified 49 00:02:57,200 --> 00:03:00,160 Speaker 1: at different points in this trial. At one point he 50 00:03:00,240 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: had to acknowledge that he told many people in the 51 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:07,399 Speaker 1: pres and elsewhere that he and he alone did this 52 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 1: without informing Donald Trump. And then the absurdity of him 53 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:17,799 Speaker 1: writing Keith Schiller, Trump's security agent and saying that he's 54 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 1: got this fourteen year old prankster. Will you help me 55 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:23,040 Speaker 1: with the prankster? Aligning with the phone call that he 56 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:26,360 Speaker 1: says is the phone call that Donald Trump that he 57 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:30,280 Speaker 1: informed Donald Trump about the Stormy Daniels deal. That whole 58 00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: phone call was a minute in thirty six seconds, and 59 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:36,320 Speaker 1: he had testified to that a week prior. And then 60 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:38,720 Speaker 1: when he admits that that was the phone call, he 61 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 1: tries to save it by saying oh, I did both. 62 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 1: I talked about the fourteen year old Starker and I 63 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:48,040 Speaker 1: talked about Stormy Daniels that he went into excruciating detail with. 64 00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 1: So he said, and this doesn't matter in this case. 65 00:03:52,200 --> 00:03:57,400 Speaker 1: You know, it's pretty unbelievable. And you know conefields Trump 66 00:03:57,480 --> 00:04:01,480 Speaker 1: did him dirty. That's their best argument. So that you 67 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:05,280 Speaker 1: want to justify a way that the fact that this admitted, 68 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: convicted liar that is making money off off Donald Trump 69 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:13,800 Speaker 1: by selling T shirts and merch with Donald Trump in jail. 70 00:04:14,120 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 1: I mean, this is how bad this got. And then 71 00:04:17,320 --> 00:04:19,880 Speaker 1: Conan and Schiller they know each other well, they spoke 72 00:04:19,920 --> 00:04:24,000 Speaker 1: in a coded language. Huh okay, where did that conspiracy 73 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:28,479 Speaker 1: theory come from? And you know what, Donald Trump picked Combe. 74 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:31,960 Speaker 1: We didn't pick Michael Cone. Trump did, well, you picked 75 00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,599 Speaker 1: him as your star witness, So you did pick Donald 76 00:04:34,640 --> 00:04:37,240 Speaker 1: Trump up picked Michael Cone to go against Donald Trump. 77 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,320 Speaker 1: And then says, well, if Trump, if Cone is such 78 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:42,000 Speaker 1: a liar, why didn't he go all the way and 79 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:45,160 Speaker 1: say that Trump slept with Stormy Daniels. That's an easy 80 00:04:45,200 --> 00:04:48,800 Speaker 1: one because he'd been on record repeatedly saying the opposite. 81 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: That's probably why you know Cone was drawn to Trump 82 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:54,919 Speaker 1: like morth to a flame. What does that have to 83 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:58,159 Speaker 1: do with anything about the veracity of their star witness 84 00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,720 Speaker 1: and the testimony here, and the prosecutors. 85 00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 2: Saying they don't even well, we don't even need Cone. 86 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,200 Speaker 1: There's a ton of other evidence without them, without listening 87 00:05:06,279 --> 00:05:09,560 Speaker 1: the other evidence without them. You know, this case is 88 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:13,000 Speaker 1: not about Cone, but con could connect the dots. That's 89 00:05:13,040 --> 00:05:16,360 Speaker 1: if you believe Cone, whose testimony was impeached. 90 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,080 Speaker 2: And again he's an admitted, convicted liar. 91 00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,479 Speaker 1: And even in this case, you know, many experts are 92 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:27,279 Speaker 1: pretty convinced he told multiple lies here. I mean, it is, 93 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 1: it is unbelievable what has gone on in this courtroom. Well, 94 00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:33,280 Speaker 1: let me let me backtrack for a second, as all 95 00:05:33,320 --> 00:05:34,920 Speaker 1: of this is unfolding here, and I'm going to be 96 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:39,479 Speaker 1: very very honest with you. I'm not pollyannish about things. 97 00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:42,320 Speaker 1: I have a duty to be honest with you, my audience, 98 00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 1: and I will follow through with that. You know, I 99 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:50,360 Speaker 1: told you from the beginning of this trial that Donald 100 00:05:50,400 --> 00:05:52,640 Speaker 1: Trump could not get a fair trial in New York. 101 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:57,719 Speaker 1: I also mentioned DC or Fulton County, Georgia. Can't, is it? 102 00:05:57,920 --> 00:05:58,120 Speaker 2: You know? 103 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 1: Nine out of ten people in New York and this 104 00:06:01,120 --> 00:06:06,239 Speaker 1: venue are registered Democrats. Okay, not exactly Trump friendly territory. 105 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:08,120 Speaker 1: I think maybe got twelve percent of the vote. I 106 00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:12,080 Speaker 1: think in twenty twenty. You know, you just go back 107 00:06:12,080 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 1: to the beginning. You have a judge is a Biden donor. 108 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:20,200 Speaker 1: You have the judge's daughter and these allegations that you know, 109 00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:24,400 Speaker 1: she's not allegations she works with prominent Democrats and might 110 00:06:24,440 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 1: actually benefit from the outcome of this case and fundraise 111 00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 1: off it. Okay, that's a problem too. It we never 112 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,840 Speaker 1: got into the bottom up. We have a DA that 113 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:37,679 Speaker 1: ran on a platform to get Donald Trump. We learned 114 00:06:37,680 --> 00:06:40,600 Speaker 1: from Bob Costello that he spent an hour and a 115 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:45,919 Speaker 1: half on a zoom call with the DA's lawyers explaining 116 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:51,560 Speaker 1: all the exculpatory evidence that he had that was purposely 117 00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 1: withheld from the indicting grand jury in this case. 118 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,479 Speaker 2: That would be excuse me. 119 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:03,720 Speaker 1: Any prosecutor has a legal obligation to do so, one 120 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: of what will be many means of appeal for Trump 121 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 1: should there be a conviction in this case. The judge, 122 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 1: you know, look at the judge's actions towards the end 123 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,760 Speaker 1: of this case. The judge basically is trying to put 124 00:07:15,800 --> 00:07:21,760 Speaker 1: cinderplocks on the side of the prosecution and the scales 125 00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:25,200 Speaker 1: of justice to bring this case back because it was 126 00:07:25,200 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 1: such a disaster with with all the testimony of their 127 00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:30,960 Speaker 1: star witness and Stormy Daniels, and he. 128 00:07:30,960 --> 00:07:31,840 Speaker 2: Allowed it to go on. 129 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:36,800 Speaker 1: The judge won't allow the former FEC chair to actually 130 00:07:36,800 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 1: go into great specificity and explain the law in a 131 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:44,880 Speaker 1: court of law by lawyers. No, no, no, that's my job. 132 00:07:45,280 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 1: Oh okay, he's been so fair up to this point. 133 00:07:48,840 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 1: And the jury instructions will will will be the you 134 00:07:53,400 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 1: know all, but be it, you know, a judge's conviction 135 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:59,160 Speaker 1: based on the desperation that the judge has shown in 136 00:07:59,200 --> 00:08:02,720 Speaker 1: the final days this this whole trial, this sham trial. 137 00:08:03,680 --> 00:08:05,480 Speaker 1: But you got to remember a couple of facts here 138 00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 1: because they're very relevant. Biden's weaponized Department of Justice, the FEC, 139 00:08:11,920 --> 00:08:17,440 Speaker 1: the Southern District of New York, Bragg's predecessor, Cyrus Vance, 140 00:08:17,800 --> 00:08:21,800 Speaker 1: and Bragg even himself didn't bring the case or want 141 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 1: to bring the case. Bragg was embarrassed into bringing the 142 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:29,800 Speaker 1: case after these two guys in this case, you know, 143 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,240 Speaker 1: left at a protest that because they wanted to get 144 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:37,240 Speaker 1: Donald Trump so bad but again Bragg ran on a 145 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:41,600 Speaker 1: platform to get Trump. You have a misdemeanor whose statute 146 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:46,360 Speaker 1: of limitations had long passed. And then the mystery novel 147 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:49,920 Speaker 1: legal theory that nobody even to this day can explain 148 00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:54,240 Speaker 1: that allows a city jurisdiction to upcharge to a federal 149 00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:58,400 Speaker 1: felony crime. Again, the statute of limitations had run out. 150 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:04,600 Speaker 1: Their star Win is an admitted liar and a convicted 151 00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:08,280 Speaker 1: felon for lying. Now a thief that comes out in 152 00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:08,720 Speaker 1: this case. 153 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:09,920 Speaker 2: Well, Trump signed. 154 00:09:09,640 --> 00:09:11,640 Speaker 1: The Trump said he knew everything that went on and 155 00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:16,079 Speaker 1: the Trump organization he signed the checks. Okay, if he 156 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:18,520 Speaker 1: knew everything, how come he didn't know Michael Cohne was 157 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:22,240 Speaker 1: stealing from him. Add to that the fact that a 158 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:27,520 Speaker 1: non disclosure agreement is not illegal, Catch and kill is 159 00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:32,560 Speaker 1: not illegal. Stormy was allowed to drone on about you know, 160 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:38,600 Speaker 1: irrelevant immaterial information's hillatious innuendo, allowed to discuss talking to 161 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 1: dead people and costello, you know, ordered by a very 162 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:46,760 Speaker 1: angry judge who clears the court room in spectacular fashion 163 00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 1: because he rolled his eyes. 164 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:49,600 Speaker 2: Oh my god, to think of it. 165 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 1: You know, he can't impeach their star witnesses testimony, not 166 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:56,760 Speaker 1: in front of a jury, not in his courtroom, or 167 00:09:56,800 --> 00:10:00,160 Speaker 1: expose the exculpatory evidence that was with help from a 168 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:04,760 Speaker 1: grand jury. Now, there's so many reasons why any guilty 169 00:10:04,840 --> 00:10:08,680 Speaker 1: verdict would be overturned on appeal, but likely that would 170 00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:13,679 Speaker 1: be post election. That's why Donald Trump keeps saying that 171 00:10:14,559 --> 00:10:19,720 Speaker 1: you know this, this is election interference. I mean, hopefully there 172 00:10:19,760 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 1: are people on that jury that will see all of 173 00:10:21,960 --> 00:10:24,960 Speaker 1: this for what it is. But beyond that, let me 174 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 1: just start by saying, this is a sad, sad day 175 00:10:29,800 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 1: for this country. This is a pathetic day for justice 176 00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:39,400 Speaker 1: in America. This is a really dangerous time for our 177 00:10:39,480 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 1: constitutional republic. You see the rule of law dying before 178 00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 1: your eyes, equal justice, equal application of our laws, you know, 179 00:10:49,520 --> 00:10:52,760 Speaker 1: dissipating before our very eyes. And I got to tell 180 00:10:52,760 --> 00:10:55,840 Speaker 1: you something. I think maybe the best thing then in 181 00:10:55,920 --> 00:11:00,240 Speaker 1: closing that the defense did was was rightly identify by 182 00:11:00,960 --> 00:11:06,199 Speaker 1: Michael Kohne, who they're desperately trying to rehabilitate in the 183 00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:10,079 Speaker 1: prosecution's closing arguments and refer to him as the gloat 184 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:12,079 Speaker 1: the greatest liar of all time. 185 00:11:12,360 --> 00:11:15,319 Speaker 2: Ouch. I think the jury will remember. 186 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:20,479 Speaker 1: That, you know, the only corroborate corroboration of Cohne's testimony 187 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:25,520 Speaker 1: in the crucial meeting would be this guy Weiselberg. Weisenberger 188 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:29,719 Speaker 1: is his name, who prosecutors could have immunized give. I mean, 189 00:11:31,280 --> 00:11:34,200 Speaker 1: they could have given him immunity in this case, and 190 00:11:34,240 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 1: they could have called him. The only reason they wouldn't 191 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:40,679 Speaker 1: call him is because they know he would have testified 192 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:44,840 Speaker 1: that Coohne lied about the meeting, and at that point, 193 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,280 Speaker 1: after the disaster that was Cone, they weren't going to 194 00:11:47,320 --> 00:11:50,600 Speaker 1: make it an any worse than it was, which is 195 00:11:50,679 --> 00:11:53,680 Speaker 1: why I mean, they are just they are just fixated 196 00:11:53,720 --> 00:11:56,839 Speaker 1: on trying to rehabilitate and then just totally dismissed their 197 00:11:56,840 --> 00:11:58,320 Speaker 1: own witnesses in this case. 198 00:11:59,360 --> 00:12:01,080 Speaker 2: I don't think I've ever seen a case like this 199 00:12:01,160 --> 00:12:03,840 Speaker 2: in my life. It's unbelievable. 200 00:12:05,320 --> 00:12:07,920 Speaker 1: It's, you know, trying to say in twenty fifteen and 201 00:12:08,040 --> 00:12:11,199 Speaker 1: meeting a Trump Tower was a subversion of democracy, and 202 00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,360 Speaker 1: the judge is going to let that in as if 203 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:14,960 Speaker 1: it has any relevance in this case. 204 00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:15,400 Speaker 2: It does not. 205 00:12:17,080 --> 00:12:20,360 Speaker 1: Now back to earlier in the day, Todd Blanche, you know, 206 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:24,120 Speaker 1: offering closing arguments for the defense and rightly just pointing 207 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:27,480 Speaker 1: out President Trump's innocent, He didn't commit any crimes. The 208 00:12:27,559 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 1: DA did not meet the burden of proof. That should 209 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:33,200 Speaker 1: be the end of it. And here's the saddest part 210 00:12:33,200 --> 00:12:35,200 Speaker 1: of all of this to me, after talking to so 211 00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 1: many people that have been watching the case in the 212 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:43,000 Speaker 1: courtroom and their observations of the jury. I mean, I'll 213 00:12:43,040 --> 00:12:45,960 Speaker 1: refer to Matt Gates. There's six to eight people on 214 00:12:46,000 --> 00:12:49,240 Speaker 1: that jury. He thinks that would convict Donald Trump for 215 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,520 Speaker 1: killing Jimmy Hoffa. Oh, I don't like the odds in 216 00:12:52,559 --> 00:12:56,720 Speaker 1: that case. So I can't tell you what outcome to expect, 217 00:12:56,720 --> 00:12:59,280 Speaker 1: but you better expect the worst in this case, in 218 00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:03,880 Speaker 1: this court room with this judge that is a bidened downer. 219 00:13:04,800 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 1: I mean, it's simple basic common sense by New York law. 220 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 1: He should have recused himself. He didn't recuse himself. You know, 221 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:15,640 Speaker 1: as the defense pointed out, they should want more than 222 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:21,000 Speaker 1: Michael Kohne and demand more than the testimony of Keith Davidson, 223 00:13:21,040 --> 00:13:24,320 Speaker 1: an attorney who was trying to, in their words, extort money. 224 00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 1: He says, the consequence is simple, it's a not guilty verdict. 225 00:13:29,800 --> 00:13:32,560 Speaker 1: This case is about documents, and we seem to forget 226 00:13:32,600 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: that part. In other words, it's a paper case. It's 227 00:13:36,280 --> 00:13:39,720 Speaker 1: not about an encounter which Stormy Daniels eighteen years ago 228 00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:43,760 Speaker 1: that she repeatedly denied ever happened, including as late as 229 00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:47,520 Speaker 1: January of twenty eighteen. It's not even about a non 230 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 1: disclosure agreement of eight years ago. The charges are about 231 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 1: whether or not Donald Trump had anything to do with 232 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:57,320 Speaker 1: payments to Cone on his personal accounting ledger. And the 233 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:01,160 Speaker 1: answer is the bookings were accurate. No, no intent to defraud, 234 00:14:01,200 --> 00:14:03,280 Speaker 1: and intent is part of the law, not that I 235 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:06,000 Speaker 1: think the judge will bring that up and make it 236 00:14:06,000 --> 00:14:09,480 Speaker 1: as conspicuous for this jury as he should. And no 237 00:14:09,600 --> 00:14:13,760 Speaker 1: conspiracy to influence the twenty sixteen election. And there's been 238 00:14:13,760 --> 00:14:18,280 Speaker 1: no evidence to prove that there was. Case closed. Not guilty, 239 00:14:19,080 --> 00:14:22,960 Speaker 1: but you can't count on that. I cannot emphasize how 240 00:14:23,040 --> 00:14:27,320 Speaker 1: shocking this is at the desperation of the prosecution in 241 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:32,040 Speaker 1: this case. I mean that they are now trying to 242 00:14:32,120 --> 00:14:35,480 Speaker 1: defend Kohne. And don't get me wrong, Cone made his bed. 243 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,360 Speaker 1: A few jurors just shook their head at the prosecutor. 244 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:43,000 Speaker 1: I'm told by people in the courtroom. Jurors are yawning now, 245 00:14:43,160 --> 00:14:46,480 Speaker 1: very in the weeds. Hard to follow But how spectacular 246 00:14:46,600 --> 00:14:50,120 Speaker 1: is this. You have the closing arguments of the prosecuting 247 00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:55,880 Speaker 1: prosecution admitting that Michael Cone committed grand larceny and they 248 00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 1: knew about it, they didn't charge him with it, then 249 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:02,680 Speaker 1: justifying him selling merchandise. You can't blame him because he 250 00:15:02,720 --> 00:15:06,800 Speaker 1: has only this connection to sell. He's portraying Cone like 251 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,640 Speaker 1: he's selling goods on the street to support his family 252 00:15:10,600 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 1: to live in Trump a Trump condo, and he's making 253 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:16,640 Speaker 1: what four and a half million dollars between the podcast, 254 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:20,640 Speaker 1: the books, and the merch Really, that's what they're saying. 255 00:15:21,760 --> 00:15:35,080 Speaker 2: Wow, I've never seen anything like this. He never stops 256 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:37,240 Speaker 2: working for the good of a country. 257 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:42,760 Speaker 1: Sean Hannity with behind the scenes information on today's breaking news. 258 00:15:43,240 --> 00:15:47,600 Speaker 2: Hannity is on right now twenty five to the top 259 00:15:47,640 --> 00:15:48,000 Speaker 2: of the hour. 260 00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:50,240 Speaker 1: I have a lot of economic news I probably won't 261 00:15:50,240 --> 00:15:53,000 Speaker 1: get to today in light of closing arguments ongoing in 262 00:15:53,040 --> 00:15:55,760 Speaker 1: the Trump trial of New York. But none of the 263 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:57,960 Speaker 1: economic news is any good. 264 00:15:58,200 --> 00:15:58,680 Speaker 2: None of it. 265 00:15:59,120 --> 00:16:01,680 Speaker 1: A lot of you know, oh, firsthand, you're struggling with 266 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:05,440 Speaker 1: everyday bills. Everything is more expensive than ever. I mean, 267 00:16:05,480 --> 00:16:08,760 Speaker 1: it's unbelievable. About twelve grand more than you were spending 268 00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 1: four years ago for the exact same stuff. Now, if 269 00:16:11,800 --> 00:16:14,200 Speaker 1: you do own a home, I want you to consider 270 00:16:14,240 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 1: getting a free no obligation consultation from our friends at 271 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:22,280 Speaker 1: Americanfinancing dot net I because interest rates now are are 272 00:16:22,400 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 1: far lower than they've been in a long time, and 273 00:16:25,200 --> 00:16:30,440 Speaker 1: compared especially to credit card interest rates twenty one percent plus. Well, 274 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:33,880 Speaker 1: they're able to save their customers an average of eight 275 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty four bucks a month. That's like a 276 00:16:36,440 --> 00:16:39,040 Speaker 1: ten thousand dollars a year raise. And they do it 277 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:42,960 Speaker 1: by tapping into their homes equity. It wipes out high 278 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:46,440 Speaker 1: interest card debt. You know, average home prices in the 279 00:16:46,480 --> 00:16:49,680 Speaker 1: last year up eight point seven percent. Okay, there's real 280 00:16:49,720 --> 00:16:52,840 Speaker 1: money there that you could tap into anyway. That is 281 00:16:52,880 --> 00:16:56,240 Speaker 1: a fortune. And credit card interest rates are insane and 282 00:16:56,320 --> 00:16:58,440 Speaker 1: if you're carrying a balanced month to month, you're never 283 00:16:58,480 --> 00:17:00,640 Speaker 1: going to pay it off. American Finance and can help 284 00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 1: you take care of that.

And we've just gone over 298 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 1: all the reasons, you know from the beginning, how conflicted 299 00:17:41,040 --> 00:17:44,520 Speaker 1: they were, and the judges conflicted in this case. But 300 00:17:44,600 --> 00:17:50,920 Speaker 1: then literally just you know, dismissing Michael Cohne's admission he 301 00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:56,080 Speaker 1: stole from Donald Trump. He could call it larceny, whatever 302 00:17:56,160 --> 00:17:59,240 Speaker 1: term legal term is justified in this case, but anyway, 303 00:17:59,720 --> 00:18:04,600 Speaker 1: and then justifying him selling all this merchandise and saying. 304 00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:08,240 Speaker 2: You can't blame him, You can't blame him. 305 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:12,199 Speaker 1: If Donald Trump was was responsible for this, would you 306 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:16,600 Speaker 1: blame him? I mean, he's literally, you know, we're not 307 00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:18,840 Speaker 1: talking about a guy that's living on the streets in 308 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:23,200 Speaker 1: New York. He's living in a multimillion dollar Trump condo, 309 00:18:24,240 --> 00:18:27,080 Speaker 1: and he struggles, you know what, we made four and 310 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:30,080 Speaker 1: a half million dollars on his books and his podcast 311 00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 1: and his merch as the as the prosecution even admits, Oh, 312 00:18:35,480 --> 00:18:39,359 Speaker 1: there's nothing wrong with telling merchandise, you know, selling merchandise 313 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:39,920 Speaker 1: on Trump. 314 00:18:40,000 --> 00:18:41,440 Speaker 2: You can't blame them. What do you mean? 315 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:43,919 Speaker 1: You can't blame them? And he has an outcome in 316 00:18:43,920 --> 00:18:46,120 Speaker 1: this case. He has a bias in this case. That's 317 00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 1: why it's relevant. 318 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:48,879 Speaker 2: You know. 319 00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:52,080 Speaker 1: Then he of course belittles his past perjury and he says, 320 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,840 Speaker 1: you know, well, he has a little problem with taking responsibility. 321 00:18:55,960 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 1: That's your answer. This is your means of rehabilitating your 322 00:19:01,760 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 1: star witness in this case. This is what they're now offering, 323 00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 1: an excuse that's okay to light to Congress, light to 324 00:19:08,320 --> 00:19:11,639 Speaker 1: a court, light to your family, light to your client, 325 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:15,920 Speaker 1: based on what your own testimony said. I mean, it's 326 00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:20,240 Speaker 1: pretty unbelievable. You know, let's just forget about the larceny 327 00:19:20,280 --> 00:19:23,560 Speaker 1: and the perjury and the convictions and the admissions. Let's 328 00:19:23,560 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 1: just move straight to the convicting Trump and that we're 329 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:28,919 Speaker 1: going to use him as your star witness. But we 330 00:19:28,960 --> 00:19:31,240 Speaker 1: don't need him. There's a mountain of other evidence that 331 00:19:31,240 --> 00:19:35,080 Speaker 1: they have yet to identify. One thing Andy McCarthy pointed 332 00:19:35,119 --> 00:19:37,639 Speaker 1: out is the DA in New York just made up 333 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 1: a property right supposedly vested in the voting public to 334 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:46,919 Speaker 1: politically damaging information about candidates. And he said, this is 335 00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:49,760 Speaker 1: important on the intent to defraud, because there's no fraud 336 00:19:49,840 --> 00:19:52,600 Speaker 1: unless there's a deceptive scheme to deprive someone of some 337 00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:56,879 Speaker 1: property right. Well, that's Bragg making up his own version 338 00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:00,920 Speaker 1: of federal campaign finance law, in which any expense which 339 00:20:00,960 --> 00:20:03,919 Speaker 1: is intended to influence the outcome of the election, no 340 00:20:04,000 --> 00:20:07,280 Speaker 1: matter whether the expense would have existed independent of the 341 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:11,720 Speaker 1: campaign as a campaign expenditure, the triggers the FEC. Again, 342 00:20:11,760 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 1: I go back. The FFEC didn't act on any allegations here. 343 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:19,440 Speaker 1: They didn't find any wrongdoing, Nor did Biden's weaponize DOJ, 344 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:24,600 Speaker 1: nor did the SDNY, nor did Bragg's predecessor and originally 345 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:27,720 Speaker 1: brag himself until he was embarrassed into bringing this case. 346 00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:31,120 Speaker 1: And then of course the third highest ranking Justice Department 347 00:20:31,160 --> 00:20:34,480 Speaker 1: official under Biden brought in to argue this case. Let's 348 00:20:34,520 --> 00:20:37,320 Speaker 1: leave my prestigious position of the DOJ, and maybe that 349 00:20:37,359 --> 00:20:40,680 Speaker 1: will result in me getting a promotion down the line. 350 00:20:40,680 --> 00:20:43,639 Speaker 2: Who knows. But this is not the law. 351 00:20:44,240 --> 00:20:47,719 Speaker 1: And this is why Bradley Smith, former FEC chair, his 352 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:51,000 Speaker 1: testimony was crucial. And of course he was only going 353 00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 1: to be able to testify on a limited basis. 354 00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 2: But if he was free to testify on the law. 355 00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:00,439 Speaker 1: In a court of law, being a you know, it 356 00:21:00,480 --> 00:21:03,800 Speaker 1: would put a whole different take on this case. It's 357 00:21:03,880 --> 00:21:08,240 Speaker 1: pretty amazing, you know. Or the prosecutor in this case, 358 00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:14,320 Speaker 1: stressing Cone, pled guilty to the crime committed to Trump's direction. Okay, 359 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:19,040 Speaker 1: the defense objection was overruled. Just like everything else, this 360 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:22,840 Speaker 1: judge is trying to throw their way. It's just the 361 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:26,879 Speaker 1: most unbelievable thing I've ever seen. I mean, the judge 362 00:21:26,920 --> 00:21:30,399 Speaker 1: in the final days, based on the disaster. You know, 363 00:21:30,480 --> 00:21:36,480 Speaker 1: Donald Trump was trying to subvert democracy. Well, they're attempting 364 00:21:36,520 --> 00:21:41,360 Speaker 1: to subvert democracy here, and they're willing to make up, 365 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 1: you know, new case law that doesn't exist and come 366 00:21:44,680 --> 00:21:48,320 Speaker 1: up with a novel legal theory to do it. You know, 367 00:21:48,359 --> 00:21:50,520 Speaker 1: there are two things that he expects the jury must 368 00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:54,000 Speaker 1: find relating to the documents. The documents contained false centuries 369 00:21:54,000 --> 00:21:57,399 Speaker 1: that Trump acted with intent to defraud. He said, the 370 00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:00,880 Speaker 1: records are not false. They were labeled as a business expense. 371 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:05,480 Speaker 1: He's correct, there was no intent to defraud. Nor is 372 00:22:05,520 --> 00:22:10,280 Speaker 1: a catch and kill operation illegal, nor is a NDA illegal. 373 00:22:11,280 --> 00:22:14,639 Speaker 1: And unless you prove an intent to defraud. Is a 374 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:17,399 Speaker 1: whole host of reasons why somebody might sign an NDA. 375 00:22:17,520 --> 00:22:21,399 Speaker 1: One might be just be the sheer cost to one's family, 376 00:22:21,520 --> 00:22:25,119 Speaker 1: let's start there, which is believable. And that again, the 377 00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:28,119 Speaker 1: burden of proof is on the prosecution in the case. 378 00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:33,960 Speaker 1: You know, Blanche pulled out invoices and bouchers. You know that, 379 00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:36,400 Speaker 1: you know, create the voucher based on what they knew 380 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:38,280 Speaker 1: on the at the time. And he says the info 381 00:22:38,320 --> 00:22:41,800 Speaker 1: on the checks was auto inputed by the invoices and 382 00:22:41,840 --> 00:22:45,199 Speaker 1: the vouchers. Not a single invoice was ever sent to 383 00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 1: Donald Trump, And there's no recollection that the invoices were 384 00:22:49,560 --> 00:22:52,960 Speaker 1: staple to the checks at all, and it was the 385 00:22:53,040 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 1: general practice of the Trump organization. But there's there's no 386 00:22:57,080 --> 00:22:59,960 Speaker 1: evidence that that that anybody ever brought forward in this case. 387 00:23:01,280 --> 00:23:03,240 Speaker 1: I can't tell you how many times I have my 388 00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:05,440 Speaker 1: accountants sent me something to sign and I'm like, okay, 389 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:08,399 Speaker 1: I'll sign it. They just you know, you count on 390 00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 1: people to do this. Why do you think Weiselberg was 391 00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: never called in this case because he would have contradicted 392 00:23:13,840 --> 00:23:17,920 Speaker 1: everything Cone said and that case would have been close shut, 393 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:22,080 Speaker 1: and the prosecution chose not to bring him. You know, 394 00:23:22,200 --> 00:23:25,960 Speaker 1: Blanch showed a twenty seventeen May email from Cone to Weiselberg. 395 00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:27,960 Speaker 1: He says, the government wants the jury to believe in 396 00:23:28,000 --> 00:23:31,919 Speaker 1: a conspiratorial agreement to falsify the records that Cone was 397 00:23:31,960 --> 00:23:35,639 Speaker 1: working for free, but that contradicts to Cone in his 398 00:23:35,720 --> 00:23:40,199 Speaker 1: own testimony, and Macone said that he did this of 399 00:23:40,240 --> 00:23:42,960 Speaker 1: his own volition and told members of the press he 400 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,280 Speaker 1: did it of his own volition without the knowledge of Trump. 401 00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:48,320 Speaker 1: Lance said that the email that you can see con 402 00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:51,680 Speaker 1: asked Weiselberg to call based on where Cone was doing 403 00:23:51,680 --> 00:23:57,040 Speaker 1: for Trump. Lance, you know, it's unbelievable. And you know, 404 00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 1: as earlier in this by the defense that cloeeing argull 405 00:24:00,880 --> 00:24:03,679 Speaker 1: what Cone told you on the witness stand is not true. 406 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:08,240 Speaker 1: Lance continued, there's no evidence President Trump knew anything about 407 00:24:08,280 --> 00:24:12,200 Speaker 1: this voucher's system. There's not been a shred of evidence presented, 408 00:24:12,640 --> 00:24:16,320 Speaker 1: not a single word of it. Then he discussed the 409 00:24:16,440 --> 00:24:20,879 Speaker 1: DJT trust. When Trump became quotas calling you know it, 410 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,600 Speaker 1: you know matters because initially he wanted to pay Cone 411 00:24:23,640 --> 00:24:26,399 Speaker 1: out of his trust et cetera, et cetera. But Trump 412 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:29,399 Speaker 1: wasn't running the Trump organization at the time. Remember he 413 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:33,680 Speaker 1: had to give that up at the time. It's unbelievable, 414 00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:40,520 Speaker 1: you know, it's uh, it's really unbelievable. Lance then gets 415 00:24:40,520 --> 00:24:43,320 Speaker 1: to the underlying quote so called crime and laying out 416 00:24:43,359 --> 00:24:47,400 Speaker 1: that a conspiracy to influence the election. Well, that's true, 417 00:24:47,440 --> 00:24:50,960 Speaker 1: that's called trying to win an election. It's not sufficient 418 00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:53,080 Speaker 1: to find there was an attempt to commit a crime 419 00:24:53,119 --> 00:24:57,360 Speaker 1: in this case. Yours must find that there were unlawful means, 420 00:24:58,080 --> 00:25:01,960 Speaker 1: actually said, I expect prosecutors will say that unlawful means 421 00:25:02,040 --> 00:25:06,480 Speaker 1: were established through either campaign finance violations, tax violations, or 422 00:25:06,480 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 1: books or records violations. Then he just tore apart the 423 00:25:10,280 --> 00:25:14,679 Speaker 1: whole Stormy Daniel's issue, says, you know, it was already 424 00:25:14,800 --> 00:25:19,280 Speaker 1: published in twenty eleven. She had denied it multiple times. 425 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:23,639 Speaker 1: How could it at that point influence the twenty sixteen election. 426 00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:27,120 Speaker 2: What a great point. It's unreal. 427 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:31,440 Speaker 1: Lance says, Stormy went public because Larry Flint was will 428 00:25:31,480 --> 00:25:35,360 Speaker 1: in a pair legal fees Lance says the recording between 429 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:41,080 Speaker 1: Conan Davidson and Davidson calls the payment settlers remorse. Blan 430 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 1: says Stormy was able to get out of the NBA, 431 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:46,240 Speaker 1: write a book, have a podcast. He says it started 432 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:52,160 Speaker 1: out as extortion and ended very well for Stormy. You know, unbelievable. 433 00:25:53,119 --> 00:25:56,680 Speaker 1: Blanch says Costello testified last week and said Cone told 434 00:25:56,920 --> 00:26:00,119 Speaker 1: him Trump did not know about the payment to Stormy. 435 00:26:00,600 --> 00:26:04,000 Speaker 1: Bland said that this is another example of Cone taking 436 00:26:04,400 --> 00:26:07,840 Speaker 1: the stand and quote lying his words. He continues, I 437 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:10,080 Speaker 1: don't know how many lies are enough lies to reject 438 00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:14,920 Speaker 1: Cone's testimony. You know, he's the gloat, the greatest liar 439 00:26:14,960 --> 00:26:17,960 Speaker 1: of all time. Was pretty devastating. Then he did ten 440 00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:21,160 Speaker 1: things that I thought were very effective. He laid out 441 00:26:21,200 --> 00:26:26,760 Speaker 1: ten reasons for reasonable doubt. One invoices created by Cone 442 00:26:27,400 --> 00:26:30,360 Speaker 1: accurate and Trump had no intent to defraud. No evidence 443 00:26:30,400 --> 00:26:34,720 Speaker 1: Trump knew the invoices were sent. No evidence, that's reasonable doubt. 444 00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:37,680 Speaker 1: Any testimony of Cone is reasonable doubt too, but put 445 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:43,200 Speaker 1: that aside. He says that February fourteen, twenty seventeen, vouchers 446 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:49,520 Speaker 1: no evidence Trump saw anything that this person uh tarisof 447 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:53,240 Speaker 1: who testified did with the vouchers three. No evidence of intent, 448 00:26:53,400 --> 00:26:56,880 Speaker 1: which is part of the law to defraud the ten 449 00:26:56,960 --> 00:26:59,920 Speaker 1: ninety nine issue Trump tweeted and submitted to all of 450 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:04,720 Speaker 1: government ethics here ready they didn't defraud it for no 451 00:27:04,800 --> 00:27:09,680 Speaker 1: intent to unlawfully influence the twenty sixteen election. And he says, 452 00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 1: you'll have to prove a conspiracy of unlawful means. The 453 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:18,760 Speaker 1: Federal Election Campaign Act must willfully violate the FECA, and 454 00:27:18,840 --> 00:27:24,280 Speaker 1: that is no evidence of willfully violating that or tax laws. 455 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:28,439 Speaker 1: Weiselberg says, you know, well, gross up. No evidence of 456 00:27:28,480 --> 00:27:33,440 Speaker 1: improper handling by Trump. No evidence of falsifying business records. 457 00:27:33,480 --> 00:27:36,359 Speaker 1: No falsification of business records it was labeled as a 458 00:27:36,600 --> 00:27:41,440 Speaker 1: legal expense. No evidence that Donald Trump knew anything, which 459 00:27:41,480 --> 00:27:46,160 Speaker 1: is key and critical to the paragraph that. 460 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:47,399 Speaker 2: Says you must show intent. 461 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:50,879 Speaker 1: No evidence of your illegal effort to influence the twenty 462 00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:55,800 Speaker 1: sixteen election. Oh okay, because how would you prove that 463 00:27:56,560 --> 00:28:00,760 Speaker 1: when everybody knew about it twenty eleven? No evidence, you know, 464 00:28:00,800 --> 00:28:03,920 Speaker 1: ami would have? You know, the story that Trump had 465 00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 1: fathered this other child, which was completely false and debunk 466 00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:11,680 Speaker 1: shows that, you know, when people make false allegations, oftentimes 467 00:28:11,680 --> 00:28:15,400 Speaker 1: people pay for them. That ought to make people sympathetic 468 00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:19,840 Speaker 1: to people that you know are in that situation. Stormy 469 00:28:19,880 --> 00:28:23,520 Speaker 1: had already gone public. McDougal didn't want the story to 470 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:26,840 Speaker 1: go public. She wanted her career to continue. That's where 471 00:28:26,880 --> 00:28:31,480 Speaker 1: she made the deal with Ami. Government made mistakes with 472 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:35,520 Speaker 1: presenting evidence Malania's text to Cone asking him to call Trump, 473 00:28:35,520 --> 00:28:38,720 Speaker 1: but no evidence of a phone call text between Cone 474 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:43,160 Speaker 1: and Schiller about the fourteen year old harassing them. Cone's 475 00:28:43,200 --> 00:28:48,000 Speaker 1: phone sink, no evidence you know, on the device used 476 00:28:48,040 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 1: for sink or wiping sinking. How can you trust the 477 00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 1: recording between Cone and Trump as reliable? And by the way, 478 00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:59,760 Speaker 1: they didn't hear the whole recording. And then he ended 479 00:28:59,800 --> 00:29:04,320 Speaker 1: with Michael Cone is the human embodiment of reasonable doubt. 480 00:29:04,960 --> 00:29:09,400 Speaker 1: He'd lie to you repeatedly. He is biased, he is motivated. 481 00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:13,320 Speaker 1: And then the president's attorney said, the kind of witness 482 00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 1: you want is one to tell the truth. Wow, this 483 00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:22,440 Speaker 1: is what's going on in the courtroom today. But I 484 00:29:22,480 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 1: go back to where I started, and nothing in this trial. Nothing, 485 00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:33,840 Speaker 1: you know, an expired crime, statute of limitations have run out, 486 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:39,480 Speaker 1: the mysterious secondary crime you know, and a lying witness 487 00:29:39,720 --> 00:29:43,040 Speaker 1: who turns out to also be a thief. I mean, 488 00:29:43,080 --> 00:29:46,280 Speaker 1: that's that just sums it all up, which is why 489 00:29:46,360 --> 00:29:49,080 Speaker 1: it's it's kind of shocking to hear it and see it. 490 00:29:49,120 --> 00:29:51,680 Speaker 1: But they really don't have any choice but to try 491 00:29:51,680 --> 00:29:55,640 Speaker 1: and rehabilitate the damage done by both Cone and Stormy Daniels. 492 00:29:56,280 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 2: It really is, you know. 493 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:01,160 Speaker 1: And then I guess they'll go on with four hours 494 00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:05,760 Speaker 1: of closing arguments from the prosecution. But you do have 495 00:30:05,800 --> 00:30:11,280 Speaker 1: this missing witness, and that being Weiselberg, which the prosecution 496 00:30:11,440 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: didn't call because he would not confirm what Cone said, 497 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:19,400 Speaker 1: and I would have probably ended the case even for 498 00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:21,280 Speaker 1: the moment. And by the way, they rightly said, this 499 00:30:21,320 --> 00:30:25,280 Speaker 1: isn't about Trump, and thus jury promised they wouldn't make 500 00:30:25,320 --> 00:30:26,000 Speaker 1: it about Trump. 501 00:30:26,280 --> 00:30:27,320 Speaker 2: Good luck with that part. 502 00:30:29,040 --> 00:30:34,480 Speaker 1: Unbelievable and making up a fraud crime with no evidence. 503 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:39,160 Speaker 2: That's what's been going on here. Unbelievable. 504 00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:44,160 Speaker 1: You know, if you worry about, you know, equal justice, 505 00:30:44,200 --> 00:30:47,840 Speaker 1: equal application of our laws, Well, this is a sad 506 00:30:47,960 --> 00:30:52,080 Speaker 1: day in the United States of America. Regardless of the outcome. 507 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:56,120 Speaker 1: You can't make the case that Donald Trump got a 508 00:30:56,120 --> 00:30:59,120 Speaker 1: fair trial in New York. It's like in the civil 509 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:03,080 Speaker 1: case were the eighteen million dollars, No, it's not, it's 510 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:06,320 Speaker 1: or it's closer to a billion. And the judge stood 511 00:31:06,320 --> 00:31:09,760 Speaker 1: by that, stands by that and was able to get 512 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:13,640 Speaker 1: away with that. How do you possibly get get there? 513 00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:18,360 Speaker 1: You know them the prosecutors defending Michael Cohne's phone records. 514 00:31:18,360 --> 00:31:22,520 Speaker 1: He's really defensive about Michael Cohne. The call between David 515 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:26,280 Speaker 1: Pecker and Trump makes it impossible to claim that Cone 516 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:29,080 Speaker 1: acted independently. Where's the evidence to prove what happened in that? 517 00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:33,640 Speaker 1: Where is the evidence there? Where's the mountain of evidence 518 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:38,920 Speaker 1: that they say exists beyond Michael Cone doesn't exist. One 519 00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 1: thing that there is evidence for is that the mission 520 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:45,360 Speaker 1: of Preborn to offer free forty ultrasounds to expecting moms 521 00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:47,520 Speaker 1: has an impact on people's hearts and minds. 522 00:31:47,600 --> 00:31:50,280 Speaker 2: Linda, The ward's one. 523 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,720 Speaker 3: Of those things where it's just one of those those 524 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:55,560 Speaker 3: amazing organizations that's doing something that nobody else is doing. 525 00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:58,000 Speaker 3: And we all have a lot of responsibility.
