." THE FIXTURE TURN A PHOTO. MICHAEL COHEN FINALLY TAKING THE STAND AND ALVIN BRAGG'S HUSH MONEY TRIAL AGAINST DONALD TRUMP WHERE THE RADICAL D.A. PUTTING ALL OF HIS CHIPS IN THE TESTIMONY OF THE DISGRACED SERIAL PERJURING CONVICTED FELON THAT IS BEHIND PRISON WALLS FOR 13 MONTHS. TODAY, THE JURY GOT TO HEAR FROM A DESPERATE AND DUPLICITOUS MAN. LONGING FOR TRUMP'S APPROVAL AND AFFIRMATION AND WILL DO ANYTHING FOR ED INCLUDING TAKING OUT A HOME EQUITY LINE OF CREDIT TO TAKE CARE OF THE SITUATION FOR HIS BOSS. SECRETLY RECORDING DONALD TRUMP WITHOUT HIS KNOWLEDGE. STILL NO EVIDENCE OF A CRIME YET. TRUMP IS STILL GAGGED AND UNABLE TO RESPOND TO HIS FORMER ATTORNEY. >> EVERYBODY'S SAYING, THERE IS NO CRIME. D.A. BRAGG -- BY THE WAY, HE TURNED IT DOWN IN THE CASE. IT COULDN'T BE BROUGHT BECAUSE SEVEN YEARS AGO, EIGHT YEARS AGO, RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF MY PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN. THERE IS NO CRIME HERE. THIS IS 4 WEEKS OF KEEPING ME FROM NOT GETTING PAID. THE WHOLE WORLD IS LAUGHING NOW FROM NEW YORK, WEAPONIZED LEGAL SYSTEM. >> Jesse: TRUMP'S LAWYERS HAVEN'T YET HAD THE CHANCE TO DUNK ON COHEN'S CREDIBILITY. THEY WILL HAVE PLENTY OF MATERIAL TO WORK WITH. LAST MONTH, HE SAID HE WOULD CEASE POSTING ANYTHING ABOUT TRUMP DURING THE TRIAL. HE GOES ON TIKTOK TO TRASH AND WEARING A SHIRT THAT SHOWS THE FORMER PRESIDENT BEHIND BARS AND OF ORANGE JUMPSUIT AND HANDCUFFS. ALSO TRYING TO CASH IN BY SHOPPING THIS REALITY SHOW CALLED "THE FIXER." >> MY NAME IS MICHAEL COHEN. FOR YEARS, I WAS A PERSONAL LAWYER FOR A NOTORIOUS AND BAD MAN. SINCE THEN, I'VE BEEN ON A JOURNEY OF REDEMPTION LOOKING TO SET THINGS RIGHT. NOW I'M PAYING IT FORWARD. WIELDING THE TOOLS THAT I'VE LEARNED IN TROUBLE. THE LITTLE GUY DOESN'T USUALLY HAVE ACCESS TO PEOPLE WITH MY PARTICULAR SET OF SKILLS. >> Jesse: GREG, YOU'RE LAUGHING THE HARDEST. YOU GET TO GO FIRST. >> Greg: IT'S AMAZING TO SEE HIM DO THAT. I'M VERY SHINY BY THE WAY. I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON HERE. I WENT FOR A BIG RUN. [LAUGHTER] IT DOES I'M SORRY. IT'S HARD TO POKE HOLES IN COHEN'S TERRITORY. IT'S ALL HOLES AND NO CHEESE. IT'S ALL AIRED. CALLING HIMSELF THE FIXER, WHAT HAS HE FIXED? HE COULDN'T FIX A PARKING TICKET. LOOK AT HISTORY RIGHT NOW. IT'S LIKE JESSE PITCHING A SHOW AND HUMILITY. IT SHOULD BE CALLED "THE RAT." HE LOOKS LIKE A RAT. IT'S A LESSON IN LAW FAIR. WHERE AM I LOOKING? OVER HERE? ONCE THEY SET THEIR SITE ON THE TARGET, A SLIGHT REGULAR WARFARE. THEY END UP ACTING WORSE AND DOING MORE TERRIBLE THINGS AND ALIGNING YOURSELF WITH MORE DESPICABLE ROTTEN PEOPLE THAN THE ACTUAL PERSON THAT YOU ARE TARGETING. WHAT IS WORSE? TRUMP TAKEN THE LAWYER LAWYER'S ADVICE AT EXPENSE OR WHAT THE PROSECUTORS ARE DOING, WHICH ARE USING THE FELON TO CREATE A LEGAL EXPERIENCE TO IMPRISON THE DEFENDANT IN A WEIRD WAY. THEY DON'T KNOW IT, BUT THEY ARE PROSECUTING MICHAEL COHEN RIGHT NOW INSTEAD OF TRUMP. THIS IS THE CLEAR FOR PALESTINE MOMENT. THE ACTIVISTS THAT HATE JEWS SO MUCH THAT THEY ALIGN WITH PEOPLE WHO WOULD ACTIVELY EXTERMINATE THEM. THE MEDIA ALLYING WITH THE OBVIOUS CRIMINAL AND FELON TO TAKE DOWN TRUMP. NEVER MIND THAT IT WILL STAIN EVERYBODY INVOLVED IN THIS. YOU COULDN'T PICK BETTER WITNESSES ON BEHALF OF TRUMP. NO ONE CAN TAKE THIS GUY SERIOUSLY. EVEN THE GUY THAT DRAWS HIM IS HAVING PROBLEMS. ONE LAST THING. IT'S AMAZING HOW THE MEDIA CALLED COHEN'S TESTIMONY BOMBSHELL'S WHEN HE BROUGHT UP LAMIA. THAT WAS A CONVERSATION THAT RECORDED BETWEEN THIS LIAR AND TRUMP. SHUT IN THE BOMBSHELL BE THAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT A PRIVILEGE CONVERSATION BETWEEN A LAWYER AND CLIENT? YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW IF IT IS TRUE. WHY ARE YOU REPORTING ON IT? THEY CAN'T EVEN EXPLAIN THE CRIME. >> Jesse: THIS IS FOLLOWING UP THE LAST STAR WITNESS WHO WAS A WOMAN WHO GETS PAID TO HAVE SEX WITH MEN ON TELEVISION. >> Katie: THANK YOU, I'M AWARE. >> Jesse: SHE HAS SEX FOR MONEY ON TELEVISION. >> Katie: I DON'T NEED YOU TO HOLD MY HAND. IF YOU LOOK AT THE TESTIMONY FROM TODAY, THERE'S NOT A LOT OF NEW THAT MICHAEL COHEN IS ABLE TO PRODUCE TO THE JURY, NOT TO MENTION THE REPORTERS TALKING ABOUT THIS BECAUSE WE CAN TELEVISE IT. COMING INTO TODAY, NOT A SINGLE WITNESS AS ANYTHING GOOD TO SAY ABOUT MICHAEL COHEN. WHEN YOU START HEARING THAT HE IS SECRETLY RECORDED HIS CLIENT WHO IS DONALD TRUMP, THAT GOES INTO HIS POCKET OF CREDIBILITY AS NEGATIVE WHEN IT COMES TO SOMEONE THAT IS TRUSTWORTHY. ATTORNEY-CLIENT PRIVILEGE. TRUST YOUR ATTORNEY. HE SECRETLY RECORDS THEM SO HE CAN USE IT AGAINST THEM LATER. THAT IS SOMETHING I THINK MOST PEOPLE SAY IS A RED FLAG FOR THEM. I AM SURPRISED TESTIFIED HE WENT TO PRISON FOR FRAUD. STORMY DANIELS WHO OWES DONALD TRUMP HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN A DEFAMATION CASE. MICHAEL AVENATTI SERVING PRISON GIVEN HOW MUCH THE MEDIA AND THE LEFT UPHELD HIM AS THE ONE GUY WHO COULD BRING DOWN TRUMP. THAT IS WHAT THEY HAVE BEEN HOPING FOR WITH MICHAEL COHEN. >> Greg: WHEN DO THEY TEACH YOU IN LAW SCHOOL, HAROLD THAT YOU SHOULD SECRETLY RECORD YOUR CLIENT? >> Harold: I NEVER TOOK THAT CLASS. IT IS GOOD TO BE BACK AROUND THIS TABLE. I WOULD AGREE THAT A LOT HAS BEEN SAID. GREG MAKES PROBABLY THE MOST INTERESTING POINT. I WOULD BE INTERESTING TO HEAR THE JUDGE'S REACTION. THIS SAME SET OF FACTS IT SEEMS LIKE MR. COHEN WAS TRIED ON YEARS AGO A WHILE BACK, RETRYING HIM WITH A TARGET OF PRESIDENT TRUMP WHICH I THINK IS INTERESTING. I HEARD A NUMBER OF LEGAL SCHOLARS TODAY ON DIFFERENT NETWORKS AND OUR OWN NETWORK ABOUT THE TAPING OF THIS CONVERSATION. THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT SOMETIMES LAWYERS BELIEVE THAT THEY NEED TO HAVE SOMETHING ON RECORD A CLIENT MAY BE SAYING OR THINKING ABOUT OR -- YOU NEVER TAKE THEM. YOU HAVE A WITNESS WITH YOU AND WRITE IT DOWN YOURSELF. IT IS BIZARRE BUT NOT ILLEGAL TO TAPE YOUR CLIENT AND BE ABLE TO PLAY IT BACK. I FOUND THAT REALLY ODD. THE FLIP SIDE OF IT. THE EVIDENCE THAT THEY ARE TRYING TO ESTABLISH HERE WITH COHEN WHETHER OR NOT THESE PAYMENTS WERE MADE OR WHAT THE MOTIVATION WHERE FURTHER PAYMENTS. I DIDN'T SEE ALL OF IT. I SAW A LOT OF THE TRANSCRIPT. I SAW A LOT OF WHAT WAS BEING WRITTEN ABOUT REPORTING WE HAVE FROM THE COURTROOM. THIS IS ONLY DIRECT. IT SEEMS LIKE COHEN CHECKSUM OF THE BOXES THAT THE PROSECUTORS MIGHT'VE WANTED HIM TO A CHECK AS FAR AS ESTABLISHING MOTIVATION. I'M NOT YET SEEING WHERE MR. TRUMP WAS IN ON ALL OF THIS IN TERMS OF DIRECTING IT ALL. I GUESS WE WILL HAVE SOME MORE OF THAT TESTIMONY LATER. I THINK I CAN QUOTE THE JUDGE ON THIS PIVOTAL LAST WEEK. JUDGE GAVE US A GREAT DEFINITION LAST WEEK. IS HE CONVINCING BEING COHEN? IF THE JURY BELIEVES HIM ON 2 FRANCE, ONE THAT THE REASON THAT THE PRESIDENT PAID THIS MONEY WAS BECAUSE THE CAMPAIGN ADVANCEMENT AND 2 THAT HE WAS IN ON ALL OF IT, THEN THE JURY IS GOING TO HAVE -- YOU UNDERSTAND NOW WHY THE PROSECUTION THINKS THERE'S SOMETHING FOR THE JURY TO ANSWER. ALL OF THIS IS REALLY NOT FAIR FOR THE PRESIDENT AT THIS MOMENT TO THE CROSS EXAMINATION HAPPENS. WE SHARED LAST WEEK WITH SOME OF THE CREDIBILITY CHALLENGES THAT HAVE BEEN PRESENTED ABOUT MR. COHEN. THE CROSS EXAMINATION WILL CERTAINLY BE INTERESTING AND INCREDIBLY INTENSE. >> Greg: TAKE US THROUGH WHAT HAPPENED TODAY AND TELL ME WHAT IT MEANS. >> Judge Jeanine: I DON'T KNOW. >> Judge Jeanine: LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING DETERMINATIVE. MICHAEL COHEN IS A MAN WITH A CAUSE. HE IS A MAN WITHOUT A COMPANY. HE IS A MAN WITHOUT A LAW LICENSE. HE'S A MAN WITHOUT A JOB. AND HE IS A MAN WHO IS DESPERATE. SO HE NEEDS A CONVICTION. HE NEEDS FOR PEOPLE TO BELIEVE HIM IN ORDER TO SURVIVE. BECAUSE MICHAEL COHEN HAS DESTROYED HIMSELF AND ALL OF THIS. THE ONLY WAY HE GOES FORWARD IN LIFE IS IF HE HELPS CONVICT DONALD TRUMP. THE AMAZING PART OF THIS IS IN ORDER TO DO THAT, HE WILL DO WHATEVER IS NECESSARY. SO LET'S TALK ABOUT THE TABLE BEING SENT TO YOU. THE TABLE IS SET. MICHAEL COHEN COMES IN AS THE BULLY, LEFT ET CETERA THE GUY WHO BREAKS THINGS -- THAT'S WHY THEY NEED FIXING. HE COMES IN AS A JERK, SELF-CENTERED, A GUY WHO IS HATED, AND A GUY WHO IS SCREAMING AT PEOPLE, PRONE TO EXAGGERATION, HOSTILE, AND THROWS A BARRAGE OF INSULTS. THAT IS WHAT WE HAVE HEARD ON THE PEOPLE'S DIRECT CASE. WHAT WE KNOW ABOUT DONALD TRUMP FROM PEOPLE WHO HAVE WORKED FROM HIM IS THAT IT WAS FANTASTIC WORKING FOR HIM. THAT IS A QUOTE. HE WAS A REALLY GOOD BOSS. HE WAS A MULTITASKER. HE WAS A HARD WORKER. IT WAS GREAT WORKING FOR HIM. THAT IS YOUR TABLE. NOW, YOU HAVE GOT THE MAIN WITNESS AS MICHAEL COHEN, THE HATED GUY GOING INTO THIS TRIAL. THIS GUY IS SO CORRUPT. HE'S NOT JUST A CORRUPTED FELON. HE IS A CONVICTED LION AND A CONVICTED PERJURER. THAT IS THE ESSENCE OF INCREDIBLE. HE SHOULD HAVE A SIGN ON HIS FOREHEAD THAT READS "LIAR." BECAUSE WE HAVE DEFENDANTS WHO GO INTO COURT THAT WE CROSS-EXAMINE THE MASS BALANCE. YOU ARE PER SE UNBELIEVABLE WHEN YOU ARE CONVICTED OF PERJURY. LET'S CONTINUE WITH THIS. HE IS INCREDIBLE AS A MATTER OF LAW. HE IS A GUY WHO GOES IN AND LIES TO THE BANK ANALYZE WHO HE PUTS ON THE BANK STATEMENT THE PURPOSE OF THE LLC. SAYS IT IS A RETAINER. TRUMP SIGNED NOTHING. HE IS NOT PUT A FINGER ON DONALD TRUMP. IT'S JUST LIKE STORMY DANIELS. HE HATES DONALD TRUMP. STORMIE HATES DONALD TRUMP. AT THE END OF THE DAY, THE QUESTION IS, IF THERE'S A CONVERSATION BETWEEN ALOE EISENBERG AND MICHAEL COHEN, WHAT DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH DONALD TRUMP IF DONALD TRUMP DID NOT SIGN ANYTHING OR WAS NOT PART OF THE CONVERSATION? I WILL TELL YOU ANOTHER MOTIVATION FOR MICHAEL COHEN TO LIE AND TRY TO DESTROY DONALD TRUMP. WHAT BIGGER INSULTS IS IT IS FOR DONALD TRUMP AS HIS FIXER AS MICHAEL CALLED THEMSELVES AND TO NOT BE INVITED INTO THE WHITE HOUSE? DO YOU KNOW IN MANHATTAN WITH ALL HIS FRIENDS, HE SAYS I'M GOING TO THE WHITE HOUSE. DONALD IS THE PRESIDENT. I'M PROBABLY GOING TO BE HIS COUNSEL. DONALD TRUMP KNEW NOT TO INVITE HIM. DONALD TRUMP KNEW NOT TO MAKE THEM PART OF THE TEAM. DONALD TRUMP KNEW EXACTLY WHAT HE WAS. FINALLY, THIS IS ONE ON ONE PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT. YOU BELIEVE ONE OR THE OTHER. THEY ARE SO WRONG ON THAT. THIS IS NOT A ONE ON ONE. THERE IS NO OBLIGATION ON THE PART OF A DEFENSE TO PRESENT ANY KIND OF STATEMENT WHATSOEVER. THE BURDEN OF PROOF IS ON THE PEOPLE BEYOND A REASONABLE DOUBT. THE DEFENDANT YOU CANNOT INFER OR ANYTHING AT THE DEFENDANT CHO. FINALLY, WHO IS IN THE COURTROOM TODAY? ALVIN BRAGG AGAIN SQUEEZING INTO ONE OF THOSE PEWS. BECAUSE HE KNOWS HIS CAREER IS OVER. HE KNOWS HIS CASE IS A LOSER. HE KNOWS THAT AS WEAK AS THIS JURY LOOKS IN TERMS OF THE JURY THAT IS GOING TO STAND UP AND SAY WE DON'T BELIEVE THIS, THEY KNOW THEY'VE GOT NOTHING. NO ONE IS PREDICTING AROUND DONALD TRUMP. FINALLY, THE NAIL ON THE COFFIN FOR MICHAEL COHEN, HOW DARE YOU TAPE-RECORD A CLIENT? THAT IS AN ETHICAL VIOLATION. THAT IS AN ATTORNEY-CLIENT VIOLATION. WHAT YOU RECORDED IS MEANINGLESS. IT'S NOT EVEN A CRIME. YOU ARE STUPID, TOO. >> Greg: AND FINALLY. >> Judge Jeanine: THAT IS THE END OF AT. [LAUGHTER] >> Jesse:
