york grand jury about hush money payments to stormy daniels and whether there s an indictable offense there. the new york times says criminal charges are likely, and the star witness testifying before the grand jury for over three hours today. yes, it s someone you probably recognize if you follow the news, michael cohen, who was a loyal trump lawyer until he wasn t, who served hard time for a related offense in the federal courts this is a grand jury presentation that the grand jury could be reaching its conclusion cohen expected to come back for more testimony wednesday if you re thinking a lot changed last week, that seems to be the case if you re thinking it is barrelling forward this week, that seems to be the case. and he also spoke outside of the grand jury proceeding. i feel fine i have been dealing with the same issues now for more than five years, so i feel fine this is all about accountability he needs to be held accountable for his dirty deeds. it s the end
welcoming conspiracy thaeories o air. he s been criticized for how he pushed that great replacement theory, which is something that argued basically there is a secret cabal of evil jews and racial miernorities who are goig to replace the voting public it is hateful stuff. carlson built the following on these supersized lies and of course on an alliance with republicans, which is the very thing tucker said initially previously he opposed. i actually love donald trump as a guy [ cheers ] [ cheers and applause and i i know trump. i ve known trump for 20 years because i work in the media. and i just have always gotten along with him trump is like, totally charming and engaging and fun and interesting. that was three months ago, and you can compare it to what
color suggesting they were foreign or unamerican and, you know, it escalated when he singled them out one by one in his rally in north carolina that elicited send her back chants against omar who came here who is a naturalized u.s. citizen for a moment, the president seemed to disavow those chants but is turning it back on the so-called squad, and i think he doesn t want to debate these women on politics. he wants to frame this as us versus them. this is a quote from the president on friday. the first lady thinks it horrible what they said about israel and horrible what they have said about our country, these congresswomen call our country and people garbage. they can t be anti-semitic. they can t talk about evil jews, which is what they say. again, he said it friday.
none of the congresswomen have ever uttered the phrase evil jews. omar tweeted in 2012 israel committed evil doings but she never called anyone evil jews. why is he turning it into that? is that a talking point? he s not the only one that says that. look, what the president and republicans have done is they have seized on the criticisms of u.s. policy in israel. earlier this year, omar did apologize when she made certain comments about the proisraeli lobby that did perpetuate jewish stereo types and she apologized for those comments. but what happened is since then republican haves sought to weaponize her identity any time she s opened her mouth about u.s., israel, u.s., israel relationship. sabrina, everyone, i m sorry to have to cut you off. recognizing an opportunity to make her the foil for trump. i got to get to breaking news. thank you. i got to get back to the breaking news now.
weeks now. he s usually talked about ilhan omar, now he s talking about rashida talib and criticizing her in the speech. listen. this talib, talib [ crowd booing ] i believe honestly, i believe they hate our country, okay? i believe they hate our country. i m not going after these four people, the squad. by calling them out because we don t like when they talk about evil jews. so if anybody thought this was going away, they would be very wrong. this has become something of a staple of the president in the last several days. those attacks keep coming day after day. clearly the president seems to think they are working. abby, thank you.
