Yeah compare him to to the 1000s of criminals you took off the street and back to the boxes of documents oh and let's throw in a quote from the bible too! he TRIED to say earlier that the boxes WERE ALREADY reviewed and seized-- and he received them BACK. They won't let him FULLY answer the questions they're asking (which means they really don't want to know) and it's a BIG FAT waste of time. Oh I know that but he's like he's a dog after a bone

oh, I'm not mad at you; I know you know-- I'm just mad at how much of a farce this whole situation is and I really want someone to yell BACK at the Republicans.
if it was me, I'd be yelling "let me answer the freakin' question, already!!" but they just jump directly to 'I yield the remainder of my time...'

What the hell is Norman trying to prove with his stupid questions about his bank loans he's said numerous times he has never defaulted on a bank loan.

Man, I know Cohen is a sleaze bag, but he is impressing me with his composure and how present and attentive he is. i'm impressed too! he seems prepared and detailed for most part. he has gotten upset but he remained focused and composed. he actually got in some great digs here and there that left some GOP stammering. i think he could provide more information if the committee just asked the right questions. i get that the GOP will do nothing more than beat a dead horse about him lying to Congress. but come on, Dems, ask questions to things we don't already know about. use your time and opportunity more efficiently.

Not receipts as in paper receipts but first hand testimony is. (I’ve heard people to that as “bringing the receipts!”) Oh...I haven't. "Receipts" are proof...tangible evidence that corroborates a statement. In my mind, anyway. I'm stuck at work. Really wish I was at home today watching this. I think. From what I'm reading here, my television might be in danger of being hit by a flying something-or-other if I was at home. It's just a catchphrase meaning holding people accountable.

So for all of those people who believed/still believe in Trump - that he was going to "Make America Great Again" and that he was going to save America from whatever problems you fear will destroy her - it turns out that you were nothing more than pawns to be used in his quest for the almighty dollar. The sad thing is that there are still people out there who believe that he cares about them, he is going to rescue them, he is going to be the white knight who saves their community. He doesn't care about you, he never has, and he never will. You were conned. It's hard to admit it, but that's what happened. You can now either recognize that you were conned, or you can continue to have faith in someone who isn't at all who he says he is. You'll continue to lose your farms, your communities will continue to decline, your coal mines and steel jobs aren't coming back. He's not your savior. In fact, he may well be your worst nightmare. They won't believe you. They will just chant "fake news".

Cohen is going to sit there today and tell the democrats whatever they want to hear. He has nothing to lose, he's already been charged with lying to congress so they can't get him again. On the other hand he has a lot to gain.....a book deal, maybe a movie of the week. Poor Michael, duped by the likes of Trump. The dems will treat him like the second coming of Christ and the republicans will rip into him like a fresh piece of red meat. We've been watching this same show in congress for years and the only thing that changes are the people in the starring roles. When it's all said and done the only thing that's a given from the whole shitshow will be fresh fodder for the news pundits. We'll be no closer to knowing the truth then we were yesterday. For over 2 years we've been told Mueller is a straight shooter so I'll just wait to see what's in his report. Predictable response.

Rep Carol Miller (R-WV) fits right in with Rep Higgins.......Meadows and Jordan! Although she was a bit classier with her nastiness.

No the gentleman right before her but she is good too but she's a Democrat. I think his name was Amsh??? Amash from Grand Rapid Michigan, who is ultra conservative but is not a blithering idiot. He also voted against the Trump Crisis at the wall yesterday. only republican He is not the only republican who voted against the wall yesterday. I am beyond proud to say that Fred Upton from my side of the state also voted against it. He almost never does anything hat I am happy about. As did these other republicans listed here: www.google.com/amp/s/www.washingtonexaminer.com/news/13-republicans-help-democrats-vote-against-trumps-wall-funding-grab%3f_amp=true😁 (Eta to provide current list and removed the original article from December).

Cohen has no credibility because he is a liar. Trump is the biggest liar in the country, but the Republicans see no reason not to defend him to the bitter end. And people fall for this shit!?!?!?

Sheesh. How many freaking times do they have to ask him if Individual 1 is Trump? Do they think he's going to all of the sudden say, 'No, it's __________."

Not so disheveled and haggard. Stress free (relatively) in not having to lie and keep stories straight when telling the truth, IMO.

I agree he must have gotten so weary trying to juggle all those lies and keeping Trump happy and from shit sticking to him.

Youzers - it’s break time. Thankfully. I think I’m taking this way too seriously. When those asswipes are interrogating MC, I feel like they are attacking me ! When it’s the Dems turn, I can take a sigh of relief. Man, I hate Trump and his supporters too much.
