Cross-examination will be lit!

[Nervous Tick]

Didn’t they just have a break? I hope the delicate judge isn’t being overworked. Poor thing.

[mware]

Costello thinks DAs office was trying to shut him down. He wonders if the Grand Jury saw all the documents he brought to them.

[mware]

Post 122 is not regarding present case but Grand Jury.

Cohen never had a retainer agreement with Trump.

[mware]

Sidebar with judge. Cohen agrees neither trump or Trumps campaign was party to transaction

[mware]

Done for day.

[lurk]

Team Trump needs to take this Dem prosecutor fumble and run it the other way for a touchdown.

[desertsolitaire]

You sure don’t have to say that twice.

[mware]

I think there needs to be an investigation of what the Grand Jury was presented. Costello openly question if the material he respected was shown to them.

[mware]

Represented

[cdnerds]

Did someone call the police, because Trumps Defense murdered Cohen on cross today.

[mware]

Are you putting up a new thread for 5/20???

[mware]

Several sidebars already. Defense wanted a witness called but judge said it would confuse the jury.

[mware]

Jonathan Turley got into the courtroom as observer. This is going to be good.

[mware]

Defense got upset with some piece of evidence not allowed ( think it might have been text message) Judge told defense to relax.

[mware]

Defense asking Cohen how many times he met with prosecutors ahead of testimony.

[mware]

Cohen met with D Congressman Dan Goldman for Congressional testimony.

[mware]

Cohen said every time he testified under oath he was preped.
