Michael, thank you for being instrumental in bringing Trump to justice. As a convicted felon, he’s not allowed entry to my country. As a Canadian, I am forever grateful to you. I can’t even thank you enough. Bless you.
Well said my Canadian friend!
Love that added bonus for us Canadians😉

Like Harry Litman said, Michael didn't get rattled by the SLOAT - he's above that. Thanks to Harry for stopping by!
I wish that I could say the same for Scotland (sigh)
Hunter prosecuted for position of a gun while using drugs. So where is the prosecution of Donald for position of a gun (in Florida) while being a felon?
Excellent point.
He hasn't been to court for sentencing...
He hasn't been to court for sentencing...
I, personally think he's going to be remanded to custody for violating the gag order...
@@jayscott921 He's not allowed to possess a firearm while indicted as a condition of release. There are three courts that should be revoking his personal recognisances at this moment..
@@fred_derfhow he hasn’t been ordered yet to surrender the weapon he has in his possession in Florida is ridiculous!! Local law enforcement should have been able to get the weapon from him,and charge him with willful concealment,as a crime in and of itself!! The two weapons from his tRump Tower were turned over to New York authorities before he left Manhattan for Mar a Lago. He is getting preferential treatment because he is a former president.
Hunter lost his sister, his brother, his mother, and got a head injury in the accident. It's not surprising that he's not running his life very well.
Excellent points.. he's a survivor 👍
TBI with a number of traumatic events. Hunter deserves compassion and gratitude that the gun was tossed though inappropriately. I am guessing there was self-harm in his mind.
Michael, you are much calmer now that your testimony is behind you. My prayer is that you get justice for what trump and Barr did to you. Peace my brother. ❤
🙏🙏🙏
You are an unlikely hero in American politics. Thank-you sir. Your family can be proud of your service.
The US Judiciary just does not wholly act in GOOD FAITH anymore ever since Citizens United. Maybe some of us have experienced it ourselves in state and federal courts (I damn sure have) - but there's too many crooked judges in USA - acting in BAD FAITH - since that accursed case.
Yes, isn’t it a beautiful thing to see him in such cheerful spirit 😊 ?
Revoke von Shittenpants' bail & send him to jail!
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
For the rest of his hatefilled misable life
I love Michael and Harry!!! 💙💙🇺🇸🇺🇸💙💙
Heroes everywhere. Dunn and the Sgt too on J6.
@@jannichi6431 absolutely!!!💙💙
Michael you are looking so much better. Onwards and upwards. Much love from an old lady in the UK xx
Ditto! I’m so happy you are back with us Michael.
And another in the US. :)
Ditto from New Zealand. Well done!
Thank you very much to the UK for your support when we need it ❤❤❤❤
And from an old lady in Canada as well 😊!
Thanks Harry for applauding Michael Cohen for us
We all respect your comments.
I think Trump should go to prison.
We need to see the emperor in orange clothes
, clashing with his rotten-orange face
@@nancycrocker4819I think some place is still have stripes LOL
At least for the duration that Michael went to jail
Would be great for his campaign!! Go for it Dems
See how easy it was to take Hunter to court? Why isn't that easy taking Trump to court?
Cooperation with the law, accountability.
Yes why ???
There's still time... The old adage it ain't over till it's over. Are you ready now it's going to happen fast...kaboom, any day now
What felon gets to keep their gun. This country is a joke
No republican should ever own a gun,.EVER!
Absolutely correct!!
And they are after Hunter for his paper ? When trump still has his gun and refuses to turn it in . Trump isn't even being prosecuted even being on probation. He's just running free
@@user-cj6lm8ob5jYou accuse Trump of violating our Constitution. In the next breath, you want to violate the Constitution.
As a gun owner, who is not a democrst, republican, or Trump supporter, I can say this: you are one reason why democrats will never attrack those of us who back the 2ndA.
Go to your mommy's basement if you want to attack our rihhts, while crying Doormat Donnie is doing the same.😅
...and a travesty that a felon is not allowed to volunteer as chaperone on their child's school field trip but can run for President.
Michael I respectfully disagree, Trump was the kingpin in his felony crimes and deserves the full 4 years for this. You did 3 years as a co-conspirator and trump deserves this cause his behavior he chose
"Disrespectfully disagree?" Wth
@@junglejane2824 Relax Jane. It's pretty clear he meant, "respectfully". Especially, since he was respectful in his comment. 🙄
I like how U think!
TELL IT!!!
Yes! In a contained space just like Michael was forced to do. Including some solitary confinement! Not MAGALARDO!
You look GREAT, Michael!!!! I’m so happy this nightmare for you is coming to an end. Thank you for the work you’ve done for the country. You paid your dues and we love you!!!
I totally agree 💯
The “Tommy Johns” undies too 😂😂
You deserve a medal 🏅
No living being should have to eat processed food for every meal of their life. Except Trump. He loves that shit.
💯 and look how that has affected his brain. Such a vindictive crazy person with massive addled brain…
Well, let's hope it's as palatable as dog food 😁.
tRump: “hey what’s on the menu?”
Prison worker: “that’s meat… and that’s not meat!” NEXT!
Congratulations Michael! You kept your cool on the witness stand. Very important, especially upon cross examination.
Totally agree!
Harry was spot on with his analogy: Michael slayed the giant!
Great show Michael & Harry!! 🇺🇸 VOTE BLUE 🇺🇸🔵🇺🇸 TO END MAGAT REPUBLICAN TYRANNY 🛑
I am a 66 year old woman who is terrified of the direction we are going in. I am grateful for the Meidas bros and what they have created. I listen as much as I can and do what I can to be very informed. And there are some days where I just have to take time off, as its become stressful. I am clear, that as an American citizen, I have a responsibility to know what is going on with our government. And to be able to speak-up to my representatives in DC (thank you Ron Wyden for the inquiry into Jared, et al) and those around me who are NOT paying attention.
I am doing my best to be optimistic, as I believe the rapid growth and popularity of the Meidas Touch programs reflect the interest and concern many have for our country.
Great work! Keep on with what you do so well!
I'm in my 70's and I was shocked and dismayed at how Trump gets away with things but now I am feeling very saddened. The open corruption of Thomas and the unethical politics of Alito as well. Trump lost the popular vote but got in anyway. Same thing with Bush who lost the popular vote with Gore. It really does look like the big money ultraconservative power elite is actively trying to create fascism in America except in name. They'll insist their fascism is still democracy and people will self censor themselves after that.
I hope the corrupt supreme court stays out of it!
They will be trying to free this felon.
What can they do to a state court, is it not out of their jurisdiction? I'm actually wanting to know, not challenging your comment. Cheers
@@DirtyMoneyHipHop This is Ameerican where anything is possible. I just want trump in jail now!
IT'LL BE NICE SO MUCH IS ON THE LINE
SCOTUS has no jurisdiction over State crimes. As we sit here, SCOTUS cannot change the verdict nor sentence.
Thank you Michael Cohen for what you have done from start to finish. For all the testimony -& proof of evidence you are my hero. Stay well and take good care. We love you. Thanks again.
Do appreciate you both for working so hard for our democracy! Thank you. 💙💙💙💙💙💙.
I do too! Time marches on and SO DO WE PATRIOTS to save our Democracy! Vote Blue.
@@Jan-zv7ze 💙💙💙
Thanks Michael and Harry! You guys make us smarter when ever we are lucky to hear you both!!💙💙💙
Love them both! Feel for Michael, so wounded from a clown! 🙏🏻🇺🇸⚖️💙🗽🩺🗳️❕
VOTE BLUE Send him to prison where he belongs.
Vote BLUE freedom matters vote Blue 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
One year and a day then 1000 hours of community service. Cleaning toilets in the prison cell.
Just vote blue a Blue vote is our best choice. 😅
Hahah to sit next to them at table, I can see how the stories and discussions and philosophy go on till the wee morning hours 😁
My favorite lesson I learned from Cohen's cross: "That sounds like something I would say." "That sounds like something I would do." Freakin brilliant.
This voter understands what’s at stake. Thanks for keeping it real.
The most irritating aspect of all the cases is that this defendant is treated with special deference because he is a former president. He needs to be held to a higher standard of responsibility because he is a former president. Justice demands that as former president he knows right from wrong and needs to set an example to the public for respect of and obeying the law. To that protocol, the consequences of breaking the law need to set an example that no one is above the law. In other words, the sentences need to be the harshest according to previous behavior, level of contrition, and the crimes committed. Leniency sends the wrong example now and for the future. Not just for these types of crimes but for all crimes.
I agree . image this same thing happening back in the 70's .
Trump should not be allowed to run as President.
Dementia may take him off the board, if it accelerates.
The Western world share your opinion. A convicted sex offender , a convicted felon has no place at the White House. @iadorenewyork1
Cohen’s best interview…for me. Harry is so accommodating, brilliant & credible. Thank you both so much!🇺🇸
My thought is that Michael, who is a passionate New Yorker and loud sometimes, kept his composure like a real champ. His control was exceptional!
I won a pistol at a Duck Unlimited dinner. When I went to pick up the gun and filled out my info, I asked the seller if anyone ever answered yes to the question about drug use. Lol, he said no. Yet Hunter gets a DOJ trial. Wow.
A Duck Unlimited dinner?
So everyone eats under the table?
@@Buzz_Purr yep. Anything goes.
PRESIDENT Biden is the best stateman and president I know in 40 years
Vote blue 💙💙💙
Amen.
Obama said: Hold my beer....
Spot on, not since FDR. Wish he'd be more aggressive and threaten to expand the Supreme Court.
@@willicat44Obama needs to MORE involved!!!
@@jannichi6431I agree about expanding the SC. If tRump does win, it will be decades before the court can be at an even keel
I can't tell you how much this conversation means to me. Thank you #MichaelCohen 🩷 ⚖️ #HarryLitman 🩷 It helps for me to visualize the court room.
We are not alone
Man Michael, you've been through hell. You did the right thing. Trump is child.
Indeed he has...along with his family. I can't imagine the pain and suffering his wife and kids have endured through all of this...an example of great strength, love and devotion. ✌
@@mkself3231Peace brother. You turned it around in a big way!
@@lisasante254 ✌sister friend! 💙💙
Trump is a crazy monster!
A bad one.
Trump looks sick…
Trump looks evil that he is
He's sick on many levels & in many ways.
we can judge this book by it's cover
He I'd a sick dirty bastard! 🤬 Vermin! Lowest of 5he low!
Brain a squirming like a toad!
I would pay to see him picking up trash or serving the homeless!
Lol..me too!
Wouldn't that be fabulous!!!
Just don’t give tRump the pay!
Only JAIL will suffice.
With his secret service detail in tow! Not permitted to help him, even hold the trash bag!!
Community Service would do nothing. He's a narcissist, he's not going to suddenly become Father Christmas. It doesn't work that way, he is emotionally stunted.
Hey guys nice to see you guys Michael Cohen did a great job
Donald Trump
VonShitzInPantz 🖕🏼🤬🖕🏼
Two voices of American Heroism🙏🇺🇸💖
I have so much disdain for donny,That every second he spends in court & cant talk is a good day for me. Cohens my hero
I was not in the courtroom but my favourite moment was hearing from the media about the "calm, poised" Micheal Cohen.
Thank you Michael Cohen 🙏🏿 🐐🫵🏿🇺🇸
Nope, he needs to go to jail and sit for 4 yrs per count!
I'm so proud of you for owning what you did wrong. You are a super star for standing up not only for yourself but also for all of us. I've been sending your whole family positive thoughts. Thank you.❤ ❤❤
All I know is on July 11th..I better here a sentence of imprisonment for the orange 🍊 🤡.
Regarding lifetime appointments... don't forget, when the Constitution was written the average life span was much shorter also.
Life experience was 38. Consider the example of our Founding Fathers. When they were born in the 18th century, life expectancy was below 40. Yet the average lifespan of the 56 signers to the Declaration of Independence was 66 years, and a quarter of them (including Thomas Jefferson, John Adams, and Ben Franklin) lived to 80 or older
There is a huge amount of us out here who care deeply about. I served in the Marines to pay for the wonderful life I have here in the USA.
Thank you for your service and sacrifice for our great country. It pains me when I hear trash talk about America, due to political talking points. I'm proud to be in a family with generations of military service, and it's a slap in face, to all those who have served and fought.
You KNOW who you take your Oath to, the Constitution of USA not a wanna be 👑
Go back so far, documented WWII MIA for 128rh. Name on memorial in Philippines for 128th Division.
SEx Pres idea of Normandy is double D day! (Tacky, I know)🤣
Normandy is 🚫 not double D day, like the S-Ex President probably thinks.
It’s a failure of our system that Trump gets all this special treatment. Lock him up.
Surely Trump's sentence must be equitable (at least) to what Michael got?
If he is not sent to prison, he will call it a victory and a justification.
This is true. He will spin it that he's won. Hope there's lots of push back on that but Fox and Friends have a way of spreading his spin fact free.
Donnie was the one who the crime was committed for you received 3 years why should he get any less ?
🎉 Don't put Trump with the poor they don't need more grief in their life, because he would terrorize them.😢
Good point.
None of us need to be terrorized by that insane monster.
He wouldn't be frightening dishing out food wearing a hair net 😂
@@nelliekenny9630Hairnet??!! 😂
@@nelliekenny9630😅
2024 ballot..vote for either democracy or dictatorship
Cohen Rocks . He came through as TRUTHFUL! & Respectfully.
Hunter should not have been prosecuted.
The Agreement he signed should have been honored. He has dealt with his Addiction & has remained cleaned .
That should have been to his credit+ the fact it was after he had lost his brother he was self destructive in dealing with his grieve.
Hunter was a sacrifice its sad
Hunter Biden was not sacrificed! He was found guilty of crimes that he did commit! He did his family an extreme disservice! I despise Trump/MAGA/RUSSIA, but, let's keep things truthful!!!
Very sad … and very mean on the part of the Republicans! 😢
@@ThanaBrunges-mx7ji I'm voting for Biden. But, Hunter a very separate issue. He was/is guilty of his convictions.Leave it be! Let him go!
Trump should get a minimum of 4 years.
Michael, I am decedent from one of the first Federal Judges. Back then, they rode circuit. Doing so was dangerous. They faced highway men, Indians, blizzards and illness. No one wanted the job. They had to offer them lifetime appointments to get anyone to do the job. The average lifespan of a Federal Judge was only 2 to 2 1/2 years after appointment.
No disrespect to your family history. It's unclear what time your referring to 1800's, 1900's? I've never read or heard such a thing about, the reason for lifetime appointments was due to it being "dangerous". History shows the all people were faced diseases, weather, "outlaws." Construction jobs, farming, factory workers, miners, etc, cost many lives and injuries. I rather doubt being a federal judge was anymore dangerous. 🙄 And their salary was by far better than most.
SLOAT! Good one. Stupidest lawyer of all time. Which leads to SPOAT - stupidest President of all time.
Its been reported that the #1 topic is our Democracy in this election with the economy 2nd and I agree cause Democracy is the holder of all our rights & freedoms and without this none of these other issues can be solved. We need to keep our Democracy safe.
Women’s rights will be up there actually. I believe there will be many Republican women (not MAGAs) who will “secretly” vote for Biden because of this. Also loads of the youth (including males) who aren’t brainwashed, will also vote for Biden because of women’s rights. 💙💙💙
@@evaadams8298 Since Democracy is the means of civil liberties, and human rights..."women's right to choose her health options" are a part of US Democracy. 💙💙💙
@@mkself3231 too much attention on this women's right stuff which is really just feminism
@@starradelowokan7843 Maybe if your right to choose your health care options were taken away, you'd think differently? Since feminism is allowing women to have the same rights as men...call it whatever you want. The US has the highest maternal mortality rate of all the developed countries. But, sure...women dying is getting "too much attention."
Love it when you guys get together. No lack of passion.
Why torture the homeless to have trump work in a soup kitchen ?
He'd declare them "losers"!
It was BEYOND disheartening to hear that the judge said, at one time during the trial, when addressing 45, that he “didn’t want to put him in jail,” because he (45), is a former president, with the possibility of holding the office again! Either NOOOOO man is above the law or there are those who are! SADLY, many know the “truthfulness” of this statement. Nonetheless, It was hard to hear coming from a judge who is SUPPOSEDLY charged to UPHOLD THE LAW WITHOUT FEAR OR FAVOR. 😔
I agree that it is disheartening.
I don't agree...
I can't imagine any judge not steeped in corruption or bitterness actually wanting to throw a former President in jail and I'm equally certain there isn't a single judge who wants his name to be the name of the judge written in the history books as the judge who jailed a former President...
Why is no one talking about a full independent psychiatric evaluation, with prison or IVC hospitalization to follow????
Randomer from Ireland here. Thank you for standing up for all of us Michael. You changed history with your guts and grit. X
Welcome to the world of discrimination within the justice system. Stop whining about whether or not you should have been charged or you were protecting your wife. If that were the case you would not have helped Trump in the first place. You paid the price and did your time and are directly responsible for making solid cases for going after Trump. You won trial by fire. I respect that and you. I believe the universe put you right where you needed to be and you Michael have made a miracle happen.
Great post! 💙
Good come-back discussion, Michael and Harry!! Thank you!! Vote BLUE!!
Thanks to you, Michael Cohen. Justice favors the rich and privileged. " We have a social responsibility to correct injustice of the world." Started with ourselves. I'm glad you had to choose between family and corruption. You took family 💐
About Michael's Option B: How about serving 1,000 hours in some service for "illegal" immigrants, so he actually has to interact with people he has defamed so egregiously?
Or how about spending 352 days “confined” living in a Trailer Park with some of his hillbilly MAGAs?
I love that idea! 👍
How has he 'defamed'?
Truth, the whole truth from Michael Cohen.
He needs he legal license reinstated by NY Governor to give back to Community. He's doing his part with Mea Culpa,.books, and now MT "Michael Cohen". Please share. 🗣️
@@jannichi6431 Trump has called them rapists and criminals, among other things, generalizing about 11 million or so. He characterizes an influx of asylum seekers as an "invasion."
My favorite moment was when Michael said, “sounds like something I’d say,” when Blanche whined about an insult. Perfect! Lmao.
Thanks Michael and Harry!
Wtf is wrong with this country that it doesn’t thoroughly vet its presidential candidates?
This is one of my favorites. Love Harry & Michael together. So informative once again.
Great show. This show explains a lot. Michael, I appreciate your explaining your situation that led to your imprisonment. It is obvious your were scapegoated. Stay strong.
Trump should be in Rikers with Bubba…
Harry's explanation of Hunter Biden's case makes sense to me now
I can't help it: 65 YO lady and when Harry dropped an F-bomb I giggled like a little kid.
Love U 2
This was very enlightening for me as a South African 🇿🇦. All I can say is “Good luck on your Nov’24 elections”. God bless your beautiful country 🇺🇸
Oh my God, I'vee been waiting for both of you(G.O.A.T). I was on the edge of my seat throughout the show. ❤❤❤❤❤. You guys are awesome! You made my day!!!! thnx!!
My prediction is Trump will get a jail sentence, but he will not be ordered to jail until after the outcome of his appeal.
Thank you Michael and Harry.
Very informative! I always enjoy you and Harry .
Michael and Harry!!
So excited to see and hear them talk together! 🙌🏻 💙 🌊
Two of my favorite commentators on this channel!! It seems like you two could talk for hours.....and I would listen😅❤
Great 👍 show
Mr Cohen praying the judge sends that devil Trump to prison! 🇬🇧
Same 🇦🇺🌎💙🙏
Mike, let us heal too. You look better. We all went through it with you.
It’s so good to see you Michael finally rested up and no bags under your eyes!
Before you got on the stand you had me worried that you were gonna stroke, no joke! You rest and know in your Spirit that you did the right thing for our country! Bless you Harry for being a true friend to Michael!
Such a joy to see Harry on here - it was fun to see the two of you so animated and having a good time.
Michael, thank you for your service, you’re a true warrior, like David and his sling! It’s great to be with your fight!
Michael, your delivery of the truth to the jury was polite, concise and truthful. Thank you for your professionalism and service to our country.
VOTING FOR DEMOCRACY!

My guy "Give em' hell Harry"
This interchange with Harry was exceptionally interesting. I couldn’t stop watching. Michael’s personal perspective was exciting and riveting.
You're a class act, Michael! It's always encouraging to see a person with integrity and strength of character.
Love listening to Harry Litman.
Micheal, love your outdoor jacket and of course you amazing knowledge . Go Cohen!
I have a lot of respect and admiration for both of you! Thank you!
THANK YOU, Michael Cohen, for fully redeeming yourself, in spades, from your past life with what's-his-name, and for forking over the immense knowledge and golden truth that you now represent. :) And I must say that I love your dramatic advertisement of Lumen, beet gummies, Tommy Johns, etc., reminiscent of so many breathless 1950s ads.
Great discussion gentlemen!! Make trump help society! I agree!
From here it only gets worse for him. Externally and internally. He’s toast
Please, let it come true!!!
America Loves you M.C. 😊
