To join us with reaction to Michael Cohens testimony but, first, jug head is in a jam. Thats to the focus of tonights angle. Laura The Big Moment In Court today was supposed to be the playing of a taped conversation that Michael Cohen recorded between trump and himself back in 2016, yeah. 8 years ago where they could be heard talking about how they would buy the rights to karen macdougalls story. And on the tape cohen can be heard explaining to the then president ial candidate his plans to form an llc through which he would finance the purchase of the rights to that womans story. We know what happened, okay, get rid of this. Its so false what they are saying, such bull [bleep] laura its all bull today as well. None of the hype amounted to anything. None of it proved anything. Lets break it down for you. Remember, in this case the state has to prove that the trump organizations internal bookkeeping records were not only falsified, okay, but they also were falsified to the extent that tr

competition for collection admissions and the job market. so they see the general level of competition for everything that has gone up tremendously and so rather than simply lament that, they are doing all they can to prepare for it as and when they can as children. you have a great line in the book, professor, that reads this way. the question shifts from what do you want to be when you grow up to simply what do you want to be like right now? who are you going to be when you re a child? what are the implications of when you re writing about here for who these kids grow up to become? what does our society look like as they get jobs, as they enter all the different fields that would be served products of the intensity that they ve had in these spelling bees and sports and music and everything else? i think some of it is that they bring a vast republic twar republic twor repertoire of wha they re doing. in high school or college, a lot
