Korean peninsula possibly. all eyes transfixed on capitol hill, including ice here in hanoi. watching the presidents former attorney with all that hes testified to. i agree with what chris has said about some of the key moments. i do believe that there were a couple of other interesting points. one that michael cohen basically blasted that buzzfeed story, saying that donald trump told him explicitly to lie about the trump tower and moscow building to congress. he said, "no, thats not how we oper...

Lot of reporting including buzzfeed that cohen was directed by the tonight lie, he did not say that today. he said he lied and that was his own decision. under his own initiative. but he said he understood that that is what mr. trump wanted. heres michael cohen. >> mr. trump knew of and directed the trump moscow negotiations throughout the campaign and lied about it. he lied about it, because he never expected to win. he also lied about it because he stood to make hundreds of millions of dollars...

Said i want to apologizie to th people of the united states, you deserve to know the truth. approximately a month later buzzfeed news ran a story that was the story of the country for a couple of days, january 17th, 2019. on january 18th your counsel went on tv and wouldnt confirm or deny the story. the next day the special counsels office did something thats never happened, never happened. they said the description of specific statements to the special counsels office and the characterization o...

Consider whether otherdies are necessary. >> i want to make sure im clear on this. you togged about his previous testimony. of course there was this wieltd 24 hours in come "buzzfeed" said the president directed him explicitly to lie, its timeline was knocked down by the special counsels office. do you intend to ask about that under oath? >> we certainly do. we want to know why me made the false statements he did. who was aware that he was going to testify to this? after all, there were public w...

Maintain a policy you cant indict a sitting president, cannot also say and were not going to share with congress the evidence that would allow you to consider whether otherdies are necessary. >> i want to make sure im clear on this. you togged about his previous testimony. of course there was this wieltd 24 hours in come "buzzfeed" said the president directed him explicitly to lie, its timeline was knocked down by the special counsels office. do you intend to ask about that under oath? >> we cer...

Now we dont know how much of the "buzzfeed" report was true or false but there is a story that we want to hear and we want tahear the truth and well certainly be asking about that. >> the house intelligence committee, thank you very much. im joined by tw people with inside knowledge. author of the book "trump nation" and the winner of season 4 of "the apprentice." co author of "black faces in white places. i saw reporting -- hes unvietnam, will be staying up all night to watch cohens testimony. ...

And leekike a john grisham nove your karkds are going to have so many dimensions to them. michael cohen, hes not a saint. hes a sinner. hes got some serious baggage. hes been convicted of crimes. but i think his incentive now is to tell the truth. he has no reins to lie. and the big question is is he corroborated? hes going to be an open book. a decade of being side by side with donald trump and he apparently is set to testify to it all. if i was lucky enough to get a chance to question him i wo...

>> id start with the hush money payments shimon mentioned. he was convicted of that, he said in court he did it with the direction of the president. i then go to his testimony before the senate about the moscow project. and again if you look at the plea documents there, doj said he did this in coordination with others. >> and at the direction of or -- >> who are they? is it the president? we dont know. he had the buzzfeed story that was then sort of rebutted. but who? somebody. id go to the inau...

Special counsel, that buzzfeed story in which it was reported he had been expressed ordered by the president to lie. is he going to back that statement up tomorrow? hell certainly be asked about it. thats the kind of conundrum that cohen is in. hes been at the center of everything for so long. its why hes so valuable. but the level of trust, i just cant speak to it enough, is exceptionally low. >> so if he does come in with receipts, and according to a knowledgeable source, he potentially will h...
