MSNBC legal analyst calls Cohen an ‘opportunistic thief’ after admitting to stealing thousands of dollars from Trump Organization
Sean Hannity: Eric Trump will be joining us soon. He was in court today. This is his famous quote. Now, what happens to judges? bob costello It’s really disgraceful. He won’t allow his story to be told, the same story he told in Congress, because he knows it would be devastating and put an end to this sham trial. This is not justice. He’s right. Marchan, let Stormy Daniels testify about ghosts, about unimportant adult stories that have nothing to do with the case. But at that moment, Robert Costello testified about his interactions with their star witness, Michael Cohen, and began to impeach his testimony. Even with the NDA, he actually said many times that he did it himself.

Judge Marchand also placed strict limits on another witness that defense attorney Bradley Smith, a former FEC commissioner and expert on federal election crimes, plans to use. Now, let’s recall a key part of the prosecution’s case. donald trump. That’s vague. This is a novel federal election crime theory. He was never accused in any way, shape, or form. It’s not even specified. But Marchan has prohibited Bradley Smith from testifying fully in court, based on legal provisions. I think it’s from Banana Republic’s kangaroo coat. But it’s clear what the judge is doing.
