Today he stood up and testified under oath that Donald Trump directed him to commit a crime by making payments to two women for the principal purpose of influencing an election. If those payments were a crime for Michael Cohen, then why wouldn't they be a crime for Donald Trump?

- 1) @MichaelCohen212 this morning reaffirmed what he said last July 2 and told me many times since — that he decided to put his wife, daughter, son and country first. Today he again told the truth and nothing but the truth. @realDonaldTrump called him a liar. Who do you believe?
- .@realDonaldTrump Have you no sense of shame? Decency? Tweeting on this day of honor and grief for John McCain? Does your exclusion from service embarrass you? Time to apologize for disparaging his military service? For refusing to lower flag? If not now when?
- Why is my representing @MichaelCohen212 as attorney of such high interest? Not about me. It’s about a nation’s yearning for truth. And Michael Cohen has said it’s time for him to speak the truth and put his family and Country first. I am glad to help him.
- Michael Cohen took this step today so that his family can move on to the next chapter. This is Michael fulfilling his promise made on July 2nd to put his family and country first and tell the truth about Donald Trump.
- As the #Country waits for the #MuellerReport, know this...it does not matter how #Barr #RedactedMuellerReport. @MichaelCohen212 has 7 days, 70 hours, + 100 pages of what #TeamMueller knows and can fill in the bulk of the redactions. Nice try Mr. @POTUS. #Truth We will tell it all
- All. Please Retweet this. Thank you @AdamParkhomenko for bring this to our attention. I hope this add gets wide redistribution by @ProjectLincoln and @RVAT2020 and all other Americans - Rs and Ds - who care about the soul of America and vote for @JoeBiden @JoeNBC @RonaldKlainthis is one of the most powerful ads i have ever watched
- Obviously, there is an ongoing investigation, and we are sensitive to that. But suffice it to say that when the recording is heard, it will not hurt @MichaelCohen212. Any attempt at spin can not change what is on the tape.
- #1 We will not respond to @RepMattGaetz despicable lies & personal smears, except to say we trust that his colleagues in the House, both Republicans and Democrats, will repudiate his words & his conduct.
- Did @RudyGiuliani really say on Sunday shows that @MichaelCohen212 should cooperate with prosecutors and tell the truth? Seriously? Is that Trump and Giuliani definition of “truth”? Trump/Giuliani next to the word “truth” = oxymoron. Stay tuned. #thetruthmatters
- So let me get this straight. @IvankaTrump gets to decide which emails are personal and which are official business, and without any outside review, such as FBI investigation, gets to declare to media that only 100 or so were about official business? Anyone see #doublestandard?
- 1)Michael Cohen’s legal victory over Donald Trump in Thursday’s NY State Supreme Court decision. Cohen can subpoena Trump to testify to prove case that Trump owes him legal fees - if Trump refuses, Cohen can obtain “default judgment” and seize Trump assets to pay off debt
- Is there any @realDonaldTrump supporter who can defend, much less state they are not embarrassed, by the decision of @POTUS not to attend honor ceremony at the cemetery of the WW I fallen due to rain? Anyone? Any GOP member of Congress? #@realDonaldTrumpembarrassesAmerica
- 1) DEAR RED STATES; WE'RE LEAVING. We've decided we're leaving. We intend to form our own country, we're taking the other Blue States with us...that includes Hawaii, Oregon, California, New Mexico, Washington, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, Illinois, and all the Northeast.
