Speaker 1: Welcome to Political beat Down, Ben Mysella's Michael Cohen. Look
Speaker 1: who better to talk to about what went down today
Speaker 1: than Michael Cohen. I was gonna call you, Cohen and
Speaker 1: just ask you, how are you doing? What went down?
Speaker 1: But I figured let's just do it live, so tell
Speaker 1: us what's going on?
Speaker 2: All right?
Speaker 3: So let me be clear that I literally just came
Speaker 3: home and I received a phone call from Ben and
Speaker 3: all sided.
Speaker 2: You know what happened? What happened? The fireworks, the fireworks?
Speaker 2: What happened?
Speaker 3: I said, you know what, before I share it with you,
Speaker 3: I think we should share it with the entire Brigader family.
Speaker 3: All right, our entire Political Beatdown family. Here's something that
Speaker 3: was interesting. Political Beatdown actually became a topic at the hearing.
Speaker 2: She wanted to know about my two podcasts.
Speaker 3: Wanted to know how successful they are, how much revenue
Speaker 3: is determined?
Speaker 2: Do you have advertisers? So I said to her, I.
Speaker 3: Was like, why, what kind of relevance is my podcasts
Speaker 3: with Ben or on my own? What's the relevance to
Speaker 3: this case? To which the judge acknowledged and it moved on.
Speaker 3: But how stupid because they actually know how successful Political
Speaker 3: Beatdown is how successful patreons it. They're following everything. I
Speaker 3: wouldn't be shocked if one of the people that's on
Speaker 3: there is probably them in disguise. But several things happened today.
Speaker 3: First and foremost, they fell flat and flat on their
Speaker 3: face as it related to impeaching me, my credibility and
Speaker 3: so are yes, I acknowledge there are things that I
Speaker 3: did wrong. I acknowledged it. However, one of the things
Speaker 3: they tried to do is to impeach me. Where I
Speaker 3: turn around and I say it on this podcast, I
Speaker 3: may occulp on television in my books, both disloyal and
Speaker 3: revenge that I did not commit tax evasion I didn't
Speaker 3: and the fact that I did not misrepresent anything to
Speaker 3: the bank in order to determine a he lock. And
Speaker 3: so we tried to get in the Petrillo sentencing memo
Speaker 3: that was my lawyer, which the judge truly ignored, and
Speaker 3: right now that's going to be briefed. So we'll see
Speaker 3: what happens with it down the road. But it makes
Speaker 3: no difference because afterwards the judge was asked by one
Speaker 3: of the attorneys.
Speaker 2: He was asked he was actually they.
Speaker 3: Made a motion in order to dismiss the case a
Speaker 3: directed verdict, and the judge looked and he was like,
Speaker 3: what say, he goes, We're making a motion for a
Speaker 3: directed verdict based on the fact that mister Cohen is
Speaker 3: a convicted perjurer and that I mean, this is definitely
Speaker 3: a Trump play out of a playbook. And it fucking
Speaker 3: fell short, like you can't imagine. They thought they were
Speaker 3: going to get a directed verdict based upon the fact
Speaker 3: that they took one line, which is actually not inaccurate
Speaker 3: though it's it's not clear, but they thought they were
Speaker 3: gonna get one line out of a five hundred page
Speaker 3: congressional hearing and use that to impeach my credibility and
Speaker 3: to get a directed verdict. Not once, but twice they
Speaker 3: made motions for a directed verdict, to which the judge
Speaker 3: ultimately said absolutely not, absolutely denied.
Speaker 2: And with that.
Speaker 3: Trump threw his hands up starts yelling like the diaper
Speaker 3: Donald baby that he is, and you know, oh, I
Speaker 3: to get my way on to get my way. Thinking
Speaker 3: that Michael Cohen is the only witness, He's the key witness.
Speaker 3: The judge turned around said, Michael Cohen may or may
Speaker 3: not be the key witness. There are many witnesses here.
Speaker 3: In fact, there's enough documentation already on this case to
Speaker 3: fill up this courtroom.
Speaker 2: So he goes.
Speaker 3: No, no, and Donald was so fucking angry he picked
Speaker 3: himself up and he ran out, kicking and screaming, yelling.
Speaker 3: Literally they thought that by trying to denigrate me, if
Speaker 3: I tell you and the record comes out, I'm going
Speaker 3: to do a search. How many times that these fucking
Speaker 3: lawyers for Donald turned around and called me a perjurer,
Speaker 3: a convicted felon, a liar. It's got to be in
Speaker 3: the thousands. Every other word by each and every one
Speaker 3: of them was fell in liar, convicted liar. You know
Speaker 3: that I that I that I don't even know when
Speaker 3: I'm lying because I'm just a liar. Meanwhile, I didn't
Speaker 3: I didn't lie on this why because I accepted the plea.
Speaker 3: I took the plea because, as you all know, when
Speaker 3: I first spoke with the prosecutors of the SDN, Y, yeah,
Speaker 3: I did I lie to the judge accepted the plea
Speaker 3: when he said, you know, did you commit this crime?
Speaker 3: And I said yes, why because if I didn't. In
Speaker 3: forty eight hours, they were coming to my house with
Speaker 3: an eighty page indictment that was going to include my wife.
Speaker 3: I mean, I would fucking lie to God.
Speaker 2: To protect her.
Speaker 3: And the fact that they know this and everybody knew this.
Speaker 3: It's not like anything I'm saying now is new. I've
Speaker 3: been saying this since five years ago. So look that
Speaker 3: got shut down. He freaked out. Now here was the
Speaker 3: big kepa of the day. And it should have been dual.
Speaker 3: There should be duality in this. Donald attacked me again
Speaker 3: on his truth social posts, which he was.
Speaker 2: Warned not to do.
Speaker 3: And at the same time, after I left from the
Speaker 3: first break, he goes out and he sees all of
Speaker 3: the cameras, I mean the gaggle there was like four
Speaker 3: or five hundred, and.
Speaker 2: He can't help himself.
Speaker 3: So he stands in front of the gaggle and he
Speaker 3: starts to attack the judge and in so doing calling
Speaker 3: the judge a partisan hack.
Speaker 2: This, that and that's okay.
Speaker 3: The judge doesn't care because the judge doesn't have it
Speaker 3: as part of the gag order. But what the judge
Speaker 3: does have as part of the gag order is the
Speaker 3: it's the law clerk, and he says, I will not
Speaker 3: permit you to abuse my staff you don't realize that
Speaker 3: your words can get somebody.
Speaker 2: Hurt or worse killed.
Speaker 3: Put Donald put that guy's fat ass onto the stand
Speaker 3: and under oath make him explain who the person because
Speaker 3: he doesn't say her by name or even she, He
Speaker 3: just says the person next to the judge that, of
Speaker 3: course is the law clerk. He then turns around and
Speaker 3: lies why because he's a fucking perjurer himself, the biggest
Speaker 3: liar on the planet. He goes ahead and he says,
Speaker 3: I wasn't talking about her, I was talking about Michael Cohen.
Speaker 3: And so the judge, nobody in the courtroom believed a
Speaker 3: single thing that was coming out of his mouth, And
Speaker 3: of course his lawyers start to advocate for him, because
Speaker 3: they're just sycophantic morons themselves. So all of a sudden,
Speaker 3: the judge turns around and goes, I don't believe you,
Speaker 3: and finds him ten thousand dollars and also warns him
Speaker 3: that one more time if you do it, there's going
Speaker 3: to be very significant and severe consequences.
Speaker 2: So let's just you know, let's.
Speaker 3: Just all acknowledge that Donald can't keep his mouth shut.
Speaker 3: He had to try to steal the thunder the spotlight.
Speaker 2: He does it. The worst thing is to put him.
Speaker 3: In front of a camera, because every time he does,
Speaker 3: he implicates himself on something. And so those are the
Speaker 3: two big takeaways. I am now finished. I am done.
Speaker 3: You know, I've met my obligation. I feel very confident
Speaker 3: in the testimony. I do believe, as I had stated
Speaker 3: on Redirect, that Donald is like a mob boss. He
Speaker 3: does not tell you, for example, oh, go in and flight. No, no,
Speaker 3: he tells you I'm not.
Speaker 2: Worth five and maybe I worth six or eight billion dollars.
Speaker 3: And so go to the YouTube, go to the room
Speaker 3: and go figure it out. You know what he wants
Speaker 3: to do. He may not say it specifically. But then again,
Speaker 3: as I've always said, I've said in the first book Disloyal,
Speaker 3: I said it in the second book, Revenge. I talk
Speaker 3: about it on may O Cult, I talk about it
Speaker 3: here in Political Beatdown. Donald speaks like a mob boss,
Speaker 3: plain and simple, end of story. And you know what,
Speaker 3: they hurt themselves with the attempted impeachment of me on everything.
Speaker 3: It was an absolutely worthless, worthless exercise for them. And
Speaker 3: you know what, I am more certain today than I
Speaker 3: have ever been that Donald Trump is going to face
Speaker 3: very significant accountability.
Speaker 1: You've said afterwards in a very short press conference that
Speaker 1: you gave that when you saw Donald Trump, when you
Speaker 1: looked at him, and you've known him for a very
Speaker 1: long period of time, although you haven't seen him in
Speaker 1: five years being in a room that he looked like
Speaker 1: a defeated man. Can you elaborate on what you meant
Speaker 1: by them?
Speaker 3: Yeah, especially you know when he went running out of
Speaker 3: there after their motion for a directed verdict was denied twice,
Speaker 3: he throws his hands up, he gets all angry. You know,
Speaker 3: you could you know it's he actually thought that he
Speaker 3: was going to be Victoria's and he built up up
Speaker 3: into his head the fact that they were.
Speaker 2: Going to be victorious.
Speaker 3: So I don't know if Salty, if he has the clip,
Speaker 3: love to show it and then I'll explain a little more.
Speaker 4: Yeah, let's play that clip. If we got at Salty.
Speaker 2: Would admitted if we won the five.
Speaker 3: And if you.
Speaker 4: What did you make of that coming?
Speaker 3: I mean, when was the last time that you ever
Speaker 3: saw Trump in front of a microphone? In under five seconds,
Speaker 3: and listen to the way he's speaking like he ran
Speaker 3: out of oxygen in his lungs.
Speaker 2: Jug and it's really unfair.
Speaker 3: And ultimately you got you know, you got Eric sit
Speaker 3: there Patentum on the back. Oh like, hey, don't worry Dad,
Speaker 3: don't worry dad. You know, yeah, you better start worrying
Speaker 3: because there's gonna be a real problem here.
Speaker 1: What's your final message? And we're gonna go on Political
Speaker 1: Beatdown tomorrow. I want to remind everybody as well to
Speaker 1: you know, support the show. There's no outside investors for
Speaker 1: the Midas Touch Network or this show. And the way

Speaker 1: joins Patreon dot com slash political beat down. Just kind
Speaker 1: of finally, Coen, after you completed your testimony, there's obviously
Speaker 1: a lot more witnesses who are going to be coming,
Speaker 1: And what's your kind of final message to Donald Trump,
Speaker 1: the Trumpkins in general, people who are there.
Speaker 3: So this case, according to Judge and Goron, is over
Speaker 3: December twenty two. And you know, I actually thought I
Speaker 3: was going to be on for more than two days.
Speaker 2: You know, I'm thankful that I'm not. It's an exhausting experience.
Speaker 3: But as I said before, I am more certain today
Speaker 3: nothing that they asked me hasn't been asked and answered
Speaker 3: a dozen times a dozen So what they thought they
Speaker 3: were getting out of this? How they thought they were
Speaker 3: going to end up getting a directed verdict? What I
Speaker 3: mean somewhere along the line, this sea team group of lawyers,
Speaker 3: these bunch of just fucking assholes, especially this Chris Kai
Speaker 3: is God damn, He's sitting there attacking me on on
Speaker 3: a regular basis.
Speaker 2: Oh, I'm a serial liar, and so what.
Speaker 3: My fucking uh you know, uh tricks, you know, uh,
Speaker 3: you know, I'm the I'm the I'm a lying rabbit.
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't even understand what the hell, he's
Speaker 3: talking about everything that I say is a lie? Really,
Speaker 3: I was going to turn around, but I couldn't because
Speaker 3: of course I'm on the stand. Really, was I lying
Speaker 3: when I said before Congress that Donald does not beat Malanga,
Speaker 3: that he never beat her up in an elevator, which
Speaker 3: was a story, It's not true? Was I lying when
Speaker 3: I said that I do not believe that the story
Speaker 3: on the pe tape, the one that took place in
Speaker 3: Russia in Moscow, is legitimate.
Speaker 2: I think it's a if it's a lie. Was I lying? Then?
Speaker 3: Well about all of the other things that I turned
Speaker 3: around that nobody seems so?
Speaker 2: I'm look, he's just an asshole? Right? How many times?
Speaker 2: Four times? He turned around?
Speaker 3: He told us that he uh has tested that he's
Speaker 3: been before the Supreme Court of the United States. So
Speaker 3: what Neil Katial has been up like what forty times?
Speaker 2: Big deal? I mean, if that's your practice, that's your practice.
Speaker 2: Good for you.
Speaker 3: How about this one missed four time Supreme Court? You know, uh,
Speaker 3: you know, attorney, you lost and you're losing this case
Speaker 3: and you're losing it miserably because whoever it is that's
Speaker 3: coming up with the strategy is as big an asshole
Speaker 3: as you you know, because this isn't even a full beatdown.
Speaker 3: I can't even give him the two fingers salute. So
Speaker 3: you know what, fuck it that there you go. That's
Speaker 3: what you deserve, your stupid asshole, right, keep your fucking
Speaker 3: opinions in your nastiness to yourself. And why don't you
Speaker 3: concentrate on trying to create an argument that.
Speaker 2: Could help your client instead?
Speaker 3: Twice the fucking edyt gets twice sanctioned five grand and
Speaker 3: ten grand and the next one. I won't be surprised
Speaker 3: if and gore on first. So I don't think he's
Speaker 3: coming back. That's number one, because he can't help himself.
Speaker 1: You don't think he's even gonna testify, No, no.
Speaker 2: I do not.
Speaker 3: He can't afford to testify. Any question that he refuses
Speaker 3: to answer becomes major news. And in all fairness, he
Speaker 3: lies about everything. It's funny that they're deflecting on me.
Speaker 3: This fucker even lied today to the judge. He lies
Speaker 3: with impunity. For God's sakes, Google it, my brigaders. Google
Speaker 3: it and see how many times did he lie to
Speaker 3: the American people during his four year administration Greater than
Speaker 3: thirty five thousand.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I lied.
Speaker 3: I said I pled guilty to things I didn't do,
Speaker 3: like the tax evasion. But I've been saying the same
Speaker 3: thing literally in this Petrillo sentencing memo. I ask everybody
Speaker 3: look it up. I mean you could read it, especially
Speaker 3: pages like fourteen to seventeen. It's spelled out right there.
Speaker 3: I haven't changed my story, all right, So look, I'm
Speaker 3: gonna continue to push. I'm going to continue to fight.
Speaker 2: I have more.
Speaker 3: There's as you know, in March, there's the criminal case,
Speaker 3: the District Attorney of New York case, so I gotta,
Speaker 3: you know, think about that too. But I will continue
Speaker 3: to push to ensure that Donald is held accountable because
Speaker 3: you made him. See me yesterday in front of the
Speaker 3: gaggle when I say, this is not Michael Cohen versus
Speaker 3: Donald Trump, or Donald Trump versus Michael Cohen, even if
Speaker 3: that's what he wants. This is all about holding him accountable,
Speaker 3: plain and simple, and we brigators. We will hold him accountable.
Speaker 3: Rest assured, because again I have never been more sure,
Speaker 3: especially after the testimony that I provided on direct that
Speaker 3: Donald Trump will be held accountable. And the number is
Speaker 3: going to be real significant.
Speaker 1: Well, leaven On that note. Tomorrow is our regularly scheduled
Speaker 1: Political beat Down. We will see everybody there one thirty
