Page 2 - Consent State News Today

Shock our viewers but thats what we learned. what we make of the tape itself, the leaking of it, is this within the law, are there ethical and legal implications of this? >> it is likely within the law and that new york is a one party consent state. as long as cohen is a consenting party on the in conversation, he makes it under the wire. the ethics issue is much more serious. i consider this to be flagrantly dishonest dishonest and disloyal act by a lawyer, its not the first time i have been sh...

You asked a number of questions there. will his base believe this? the "access hollywood" tape happened, he still became president. air force one, no, youll have to ask my attorney, i didnt know about it. weeks later he admitted he knew about it. will it make a difference with the people who support him, who have believed him, or the people hes lied to, which is the american people? or what does that mean for him legally? you said you dont think we should focus on the legal part, but if youll ju...

Donald trump, and i know a lot of them is that they will tell you this, he is fiercely loyal to his people. he does not pretend to be a saint, but he is ferociously loyal to his people. it is really ridiculous that this guy was giving them legal advice and then recording them and releasing the tapes. he better be damn sure that donald trump was in new york, because if he was in florida or mar-a-lago, florida is a 2-party consent state. >> sean: does that matter? >> it matters to who you are reco...

Thats the big question knnow. >> and the president had tweeted it may possibly be illegal for cohen to make these recordings. not really in new york, right? >> not really. we dont know what their strategy is, exactly, about why they want to have these tapes released to see the light of day. so its unclear what the strategy is there. and thats really the big question. again, is this just another thing for the feud that continues to go public. >> and if cohen made the reporting here in new york, i...

Affidavits to fully disclose your concerns that it may not be as crystal clean as another source of information might be. it is true that the dossier is in there, it is not fully exposed to the level that a lot of people would like to have seen it. it is complicated by the fact that there is some possibility of circular reporting where christopher goes to the media and takes the media report as corroborative evidence. >> dana: we will keep following that. in the meantime, the president found out...

Colleagues, i have never heard of that happening anywhere any time. any attorney will tell you, theres definitely clients they have had had they wouldnt mind having on record because maybe they waffle a little bit. but thats the part that trump is correct about. what hes not correct about is that the sur repetitiotaping byn was illegal because it comes down to where the phone call was made. states fall into one of two categories. either theyre an all-party consent state where all parties to the ...

Component of the business as a total. shareholders have not taken well to the news. shares are trading down as much as 3%. a bit of a frightening story. a st. louis lyft driver was in hot water after his live stream of passengers was discovered over the weekend. he was streaming video of people riding in his uber all day long. >> absolutely. thats the story. he was suspended now. apparently he was live streaming full conversations of passengers in the back of the car, them alone and conversati...

Clients interests at heart? is he really up holding his responsibility to his client? maybe he was not the kind of ride or die sidekick we all thought he was. >> as a lawyer, is that something youve heard of before? >> you can do it new york. you can tape your clients, tape other people. its a one party consent state. why are you doing, well its true. you want to make sure you have this information if it has value later on, and thats why. to quickly answer that question why that payment was neve...

Is off the rails of the intention of this investigation. by the way if russian collusion in american -- im sorry russian interference great. collusion thats a nonsensical narrative. this will not move the needle on donald trump one bit. the most damaging political narratives are the ones that same some preexisting notion. donald trump babien has been honest who he is it will not move the needle on him one bit but will move the needle on bob mueller how crazy this is. abby: isnt he the lawyer of ...

Introduced at a criminal trial. i dont know that the reporting has nailed down whether the special master who passed on that question, whether this was covered by attorney/client privilege has concluded that, no, these tapes are fair game and they are not privileged materials. it seems like because they are in the hands of the fbi, it may very well be that these are not privileged, which means they could be used in a court of law against either michael cohen or, if it came to it, donald trump. t...
