and what is the likelihood that because of that he winds up giving everything he s got on trump. you don t have enough time to be able to do that. we could be here for days if not years to do that. two crucial things that i wanted to bring up is the fact that people need to remember michael cohen is not only looking at the stormy daniels lawsuit in california, the federal investigation in the southern district of new york, but he also has the mueller investigation. i mean, this is not just i m only fighting one front. what s happening is especially vis-a-vis whether or not he has to invoke his fifth amendment right and whether he will do so to protect himself, his family, his children and ultimately donald trump is the following, you know, cohen s lawyers on friday argued that they don t have any evidence pause it all got seized. however, we do know that the lawyer and the federal investigation in new york and the lawyers, computes me, for michael cohen are going to get a full copy o
clinton s missing e-mails. the day after donald trump said the same thing. the russians have those e-mails. they ve had them for some time. how does he do both? how is he potentially somebody mueller might want to talk to and also the lawyer that ends it? he can t be donald s lawyer in court if he s also a witness. that doesn t mean he can t advise donald. and rudy s not a practicing lawyer at this point. he s a rainmaker for greenberg, the law firm he s now at. his former law firm, giuliani, and i think it was burrman, they did work for cambridge analytica. that would also make him a likely witness that mueller may want to talk to at some point. as long as he s not representing trump in court, he s advising him, that s much less of a problem. but there s no way he s going to be in court representing him in these matters. and by the way, your other guest is quite right about the relationship with the fbi. the association of former fbi agents used to meet at the trump
and seeming to know so much about what was going to happen to hillary clinton? i think that giuliani has ties from the old days to the prosecutors and to the fbi. the relationship between him and donald president trump is interesting. you know, it sort of died down after the election. but clearly giuliani is his apologist. he loves him. yeah. and what he is now doing, david, is he told the new york post that this is what he said about him believing he can actually end the mueller probe. he says i don t know yet what s outstanding, but i do think i don t think it s going to take more than a week or two to get a resolution. they re almost there. him seeming to pretend he has foreknowledge it s going to end. here s my question. how is he going to be the lawyer when he seems to have had some knowledge of what was going on behind the scenes? here is rudy giuliani on a raid show saying russia has hillary
on himself. paul. first of all, whoever ends up impeaching trump, that s their opening statement. ultimately if there s a criminal case, that s the opening statement. that s obstruction of justice. now, again, i ve always said, unless there s evidence of collusion, that is conspiracy to defraud the united states, i don t think mueller brings the case of obstruction, but joy you just laid out the compelling evidence that s corroborated. i have to say i think collusion is coming. when comey had that conversation with priebus, comey told priebus that the allegations in the dossier had been substantiated. the dossier is about collusion. we love having you guys on to debate. this is our favorite debate. nick ackerman, seema iyer. and coming up. trump s got himself a new lawyer. what difference at this point does it make? what difference does it make?
michael cohen and donald trump s lawyers, that motion has gaping holes in it as it relates to their effort to delay or stay our case. so let s go through because there s so many things piled on michael cohen right now that i feel like it s confusing to a lot of people that are listening to it. we now know from the washington post that your client, stephanie clifford, aka stormy daniels previous lawyer, the lawyer who esht negotiated the nda that michael cohen says he took a home equity loan to pay her $130,000 is now cooperating with the federal investigation of cohen. he has been asked to provide certain limited digital information for the probe in the southern district of new york and he has done so and will continue to cooperate. what does that mean? first of all, joy, and i ve got a lot of inside knowledge about what s been transpiring in that regard, i can t i can t get into a lot of the details, but sufficed to say that cooperation was not optional. it wasn t voluntary coo
