"The former Chief Financial Officer of the Trump Organization is reportedly in talks to plead guilty to perjury, the New York Times reported Thursday.
In October, Forbes reported that Weisselberg lied under oath when he testified about figures he gave about the size of the Trump Tower penthouse."

You have a lot of scammers in your comments section. I have reported them, but please keep an eye out for them.
Nah, we don't want to give money to liars and idiots like you guys.
Ywnbaw
Why did you guys have the same name (The Young Turk) as the Armenian political group who committed christians genocide? Imagine having a channel called National Socialist workers party and not changing it. Wild world we live in.
How do you enrich your life with $2m if you’re sitting in a jail cell?
I like presidents who dont steal govt secrets and lie about having them.
The question now is did Trump write him a check?
This is the literal definition of a payoff...
As dum as Trump is to put that clause in Weisselberg’s severance package, he found a lawyer dumb enough to write it for him!
The lawyer who wrote it up isn't necessarily dumb, push comes to shove all they have to say is trump ask me to draft a document, and that's what I did, whether it's enforceable or not isn't my concern.
@@leothenomad5675
You're not wrong here!
As dumb as biden is for sending billions to the Ukrain 😆
Any organization or entity using such clauses means they have something to hide !!!
That clause in the severance deal should be evidence enough by itself that these people are criminals.
Accordion hands 😂 Yiu know dump is lying when he starts in with those ridiculous accordion hands 😂
2 million dollars that was money people sent to trump. It's grifted money.
It’s so incredibly embarrassing that some of my fellow American citizens actually felt that Donald Trump was the best one to represent them and lead our nation. And it’s even more embarrassing how, after seeing how much of a complete imbecile Donald Trump was as a representative and a leader, there are STILL quite a number of my fellow American citizens who feel that he is the best one to represent us and lead our nation again. God, I’m so incredibly embarrassed for our nation right now!!
Have u been to any red states? Not that surprising that they would vote for a racist grifting scumbag like trump
@@brando7266better then a pedo like you and biden 😂
@Rock12857
Hey Rock, you see pedo’s everywhere. To me, that means you are one yourself! See how you're projecting?
Let me guess...🤔! The severance contract was written by Habba ? It couldn't be Boebert or Greene...! (Neither can string a sentence together !)
Lets make it 500 million so Trump can say it’s biggest suit judgement the likes of which the world has never seen.
It would need to be over $787 million
So Trump. “Do not cooperate with the law clause”. Lol. What an absolute bum.
Almost as dumb as biden 😅
Obstruction. Coercion. Racketeering.
1st agreement should be withdrawn and he should be prosecuted the same way anyone else would be.
Only a career criminal would be this determined to seek total immunity from the courts. Nobody in American history has ever been bold enough to ask such a thing. But America has never had a criminal of this magnitude before.
Trumps lawyers are at the level of Keyrock "The Unfrozen Caveman Lawyer" from SNL skits.
The lawyer that formed the severance contract needs to be reported to the bar for ethics violations
WHAT???? You're legally required to cooperate with law enforcement??? Who knew?? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That means that you don’t tell them anything that they can’t already prove you did.
Trump is the same person who mentioned the idea that he hopes to pardon himself
That is so true. It's things like that that people need to be reminded of.
How legitimate is a company that demands its employees not talk to law enforcement without being forced by law to do so? I think there was a segment on Trump University where a similar suggestion was made to instructors to call a lawyer before answering any questions asked by law enforcement.
Unless he legally has to ,,, WOW what a freak 🤮
When does the new E Jean Carroll Tower sign go up?
As soon as she shows.
The famous "Dump Trower" is collapsing.
The longer this stuff comes out about trump the more curruption is going to be found.
I would have signed that clause and then snitched as soon as the check cleared because I have a legal obligation to say something if I see something
Actually, you don’t. That’s the whole point. If you see something there’s no obligation for you to talk about it.
People are required to tell the truth when called on by the courts,no clause can stop that.
Courts, yes, police, no.
If there's a subpoena, sure. If the cops knock on your door and say they want to talk, then you have no obligation to do so.
It said unless legally required to do so, as in a subpoena.
The clause means if one witnesses a crime, they cannot report it.
Not legally binding.
In addition to jail time, fine him $2M.
INNOCENT PEOPLE DONT DO THIS
Wow, he literally put it in writing. Talk about confession on paper. LMAO
An illegally binding contract
Isn't that called obstruction?
Trump *can't* be the dumbest man in America... It's *gotta* be one of his followers!
Sigh 😕... overwhelming evidence that the whole organization is crooks! "His best people" 🤨
Committing fraud in a corporate contract negates the deal 😎
Can imagine being pulled over by the cops for speeding, and saying I can’t cooperate and answer your questions because I’ll lose $2,000,000.
It’s a mafia type contract.
And you say Trump is not a CRIMINAL! Why the Clause if he is not?
Jackson is spot on. The orange doesn't even try to say I am innocent. He just keeps saying I should get to do whatever I want.
So years ago I was married to someone and we were children's pastors at a church. And we found that the senior pastor had been contacting prostitutes on our computer. So we went to the appropriate channels to report it and we kept our mouth shut. We wanted to do the right thing. And we ended up getting a letter from an attorney telling us that we had to keep every bit of that to ourselves or they would not give us our severance package. So we kept our mouth shut and every person in that church hated us because they thought we were lying. And a year later his wife turned up with syphilis. And the church came crashing down. A lot of people tried to contact me and apologize and I'm just not one that holds grudges so I was like whatever I forgave you a long time ago because you didn't know. But we did have something happen like that it just wasn't a huge corporation.
It’s hard but sometimes you have to say what’s going on in order to try to keep a congregation clean in Gods eyes, and let the chips fall where they may.
Thank you for your post and condolences to you and your congregation for such trauma.
Seems to me that the clause, unless he is required to do so, negates the first part of the same sentence.
Rendering it unenforceable.
Trump has the bestest words in contracts!
That should be used as witness tampering
Isn't the severance package and $2 million payment given that term itself evidence of obstruction of justice?
Put Trump back in the white house for he can dismantle the Republican Party laugh
Under contract law, that is what would be called an "ultra vires" clause (beyond the law) and legally unenforceable.
No way Can make this shit up. I guess what trump supporters don't care this guy is a conartist
More like Weaselberg amirite?
He needs another taxpayers funded stay ( Rikers) 2more yrs
Considering that Trump had people sign NDA'*s, anything goes!
* A non-disclosure agreement, also known as a confidentiality agreement, confidential disclosure agreement, proprietary information agreement, or secrecy agreement, is a legal contract or part of a contract
Same clause that was put in Trump SoHo scam deal, when he settled that case in 2011.
cope and seethe LMAO
Why did they not just put in the agreement the word "obstruction"?
It's a bit like the clause he said he put in his financial documents. Utterly meaningless. Like him.
The BIGGEST CON MAN that has ever existed!!!!!!
Severance..nah...hush money more like..
Trump... sign this contract, 🤗🤑
Employee, I need to read it... 😐
Trump, OK 🤗🤑
Employee, Um, is this statement, in the fine print, is this all Legal. 🤨
Trump, yes as I'm a very smart man, and I understand these things, better than most. 🤗🤑
🤣😂Honestly, you're going to be putting Comedians out of Work...🤡🥸
And these are the people that you're placing in Power...😕😈
lock him up.
Another " why am I not surprised ". How many companies put clauses like that in their severance packages ? One.
I really hope he go back to jail for a while.
0:28 “… blowed away …” huh!
Wow! I wasn’t born in the US. And, English is not my native language. If I were the one who said that, my 9th grade English teacher would have scolded me for the grammatical error.
Please don’t embarrass TYT. Learn to use the language properly.
Blow, blew, blown.
The drug cartels have the same employment clause as Trump does.
You give them too much credit, drug cartels are usually much more organized. And Trump don't have the manpower with the balls or competency to take out hits on their 'enemies'.
You have to stop at red lights..unless they are green .. was probably in that contract also 😂
WTF,😂😂😂 That along should be another crime and the lawyer should make him pay a pine.
If the money has been paid, alan should start singing
Legal analysis is not exactly correct. Contract clauses that contravene public policy are unenforceable. I think there's an argument agreeing not to volunteer cooperation . . . ? OK, OK, unenforceable.
Doesn’t that clause establish witness tampering?
This was publicly reported MONTHS ago.
Agreed but the judgement has been postponed because Weiselberg is going to give new evidence admitting perjury, so it's kinda new too.
We need to see more of Jackson White on TYT and all other branches of it.
No no no, HERE's how stupid that clause is. JUST DO AN NDA. An NDA is completely enforceable and would prevent him from disclosing information to law enforcement unless legally compelled.
So instead of doing the OBVIOUS and COMMON thing that would have accomplished what they wanted, they wrote this insane thing that ADVERTISES they are committing crimes and know they are committing crimes.
FFS - he is the most INCOMPETENT gangster in history.
I'm sure he also signed an NDA. Trump has everyone sign an NDA.
Ivana didn't make her flight to France
She knew way too much
Ex wife was a liability
Check out her grave site if you want an example of the man's character. He registered Bedminster as a cemetery for tax purposes. Ivana is the ony one buried there.
Yep, the 37th hole. And it's overgown 😕
So that’s how an Orange Mob Boss gives Severance packages. Hmmm.
I Love How TA-RUMP-DA-DUMP does his DIS-,PAINS-ING
They might as well walk around with a bullseye on their back, where the hell do they find these people? 😮
Thanks for your excellent reporting 💝
Lies always beget more lies!
Is any of these people actually a lawyer. If so, why would they demonstrate to the world their complete lack of understanding of the law2?
Yes. Both Cenk and Rayvanna are attorneys
😂😂😂 YOU don't need to be a attorney to figure that out.
Truly a mobster move...😂😂
More like a monster move
Smells like bribe sprit
If you have nothing to hide, then you wouldn’t put that in the contract.
It's not enforceable. WTF
Too true not enforceable however he stands to lose the money by talking. This is obstruction at its best!😮😮
Enjoyed it immensely.😂
Who are the Attorneys who wrote these Contracts???
Only the mob takes the fifth
It be funny if the court awarded him with that severance package just to spite trump
Jessica Habba probably wrote that contract. It would explain a lot.
She is NOT smart enough. That's Trump, he's obviously got something more to hide. And stupid enough to think he can get away with it.😂😂😂
"...unless legally required to do so"
This bit makes the previous words null...
Am I taking crazy pills?
Either Alina or Boris drafted that severance package clause. Can’t decide which of them is dumb enough to.
Trump did.
@@CCFONESOL lol. Almost forgot how dumb he is.
So one could surmise that they were breaking the law , and were colluding to defraud with knowledge. It says so much .
He must be
Guilty.why do that if innocent!
Put weiselberg back in Rikers
It is absurd after the fact, but the wording would preclude the cfo from proactively going to authorities to notify them of an on-going crime. Under questioning, the cfo would be acting under coercion. The point that the trump org required such a clause that indicates potential on-going crime is well taken.
Golden
As long as he's getting those payments from trump we KNOW he's not being forthcoming as trump has NEVER given anyone anything that doesn't benefit him directly. So if he continues to make payments to Weisselberg, it's because Allen continues to be untruthful about trump. Period. Mr. Weisselberg needs to spend some serious time in prison since he was required to tell the truth in exchange for his slap-on-the-wrist jail term last time around.
Weislberg is fall guy cohen said fuck you trump and woke up
That is odd, you are supposed to cooperate with law enforcement because you are legally required to do so or you can plead the 5th amendment.
The clause means if you know of wrongdoing you cannot voluntarily expose it.
so he'd lose his severance if he called 911?
How far does that go, could Trump had held a knife to his neck, threatened his life, and he'd still get his $2M severance as long as he didn't go to the cops? $2M is a pretty low-ball offer to keep quiet about all the illegal activity associated with Trump.
$$$ for nothing
Mark Knoffler sang about this " Money for Nothing"
Is that blackmail?
Who is that Mexican guy? Never heard of a Mexican guy named Cenk!
You ever been to Tijuana? Every other taco vendor there is named Cenk.
Because he's not Mexican
