Michael Cohen Testimony live before the House Oversight Committee

President Trump's former personal attorney and fixer Michael Cohen had harsh words for his former employer during public testimony before a House congressional panel Wednesday. "He is a racist. He is a con man. He is a cheat," Cohen, testifying before the House Oversight Committee, said in his opening statement about Mr. Trump.

Cohen's testimony comes as Washington prepares for a final report from special counsel Robert Mueller's nearly two-year investigation into Russian interference in U.S. elections and possible coordination between Trump campaign associates and the Russian government.

The irony of Cohen's testimony two months before he reports to federal prison for lying to Congress was not lost on lawmakers. "I've made it abundantly clear to Mr. Cohen if he comes here today, and he does not tell the truth, I will be the first to refer those untruthful statements to the DOJ," Chairman Elijah Cummings, a Maryland Democrat, said when opening the hearing.

This should not be about Dems or Rep...It should be about the truth.

I feel so bad for Cohen, he looked so powerless and nervous.

"You think i'm stupid, I'm not going to Vietnam". This I believe. Sounds just like Trump in his signature waving arm motion

There is a lot of "beating a dead horse" going on here.

I hope you get a shorter sentence and that you stay safe in jail. I am praying for your family too. You will get through this too Michael.

I would prefer that the House does not have to waste time investigating the president. Sadly, they have to given the number of laws he has broken. Like all Americans I would prefer we had a president that was not a criminal and our government could focus on other issues. But that is not where we are at in 2019...

Notice his head shaking when Mr. Jordan was trying to make it sound as if all his crimes were committed for himself lol.

Cohen: The president has been making indirect threats against my family.
Republicans: [Begin each of their interrogations by making Godfather-esque comments about Cohen's family.]

3:05:08 'Our colleagues are not upset because you lied to Congress for the president, they're upset because you *stopped* lying to Congress for the president.' Thank you, Congressman Jamie Raskin.

Rep. Jordan is out-of-order. He sounds like a kid.., not a man.
