Thank you for simply giving facts. Others seem to have a hard time not shoving their "opinions" in my face

[ronlugbill]

Thank you. In one minute, I got more info. than I would in any other video or article that are much loner.

[Charlie]

trump won't take the stand. He said he would, that's how I know he won't..

[kellywilson]

Dang lady, you are so fast and smart. 👌

[estheroliver]

Thank you Mam for your fine reporting.

[Julie-py]

So if his lawyer did time for it so should he, his lawyer wasn't doing it for himself ...

[JusticeFALL-USA]

He had knowledge and intent, PRICELESS prosecutorial aromatherapy.

Put that traitor in prison for life ....jan6th

[moedawg]

If it was anybody else they would have been in jail it’s high time they hold him accountable and lock him up

[PatriciaHain-uwvx]

And that's all we need to know in LESS than 60 sec🤗 Well Done

[darrelllowe]

Let him take the stand and then lock him up.

[triatheilean]

Katie summed it up in a NEW YORK MINUTE! 🤣🤣

[hervedelnorte]

Nice quick summary. Tired of the long, drawn out reviews where lawyers just want to hear themselves speak.

[dgronzega]

But you can't falsify records. His cheapness got him. Wanting to take it as "legal" fees. Oopsie.

[michelesinclair]

The hush money isn't the crime. Listing it as campaign expense is illegal.

[UncompressedWAVmusic]

Wow a good summary of the bad court day for Trump in only 60 seconds. Thank you.

[prajnachan]

Katie- you're the best.
What a ride (!)

Thanks girlfriend 🌟

[rickrose]

You CAN do that. But when you do it to prevent the disclosure while you're running for office, you're required to declare it as a campaign expense.

[katalystkatapatheticalyssa]

Thank you for the quick, succinct, updates.
