In this is the Ingraham Angle from washington tonight. But first, michae we told you Michael Cohen could not beprov trusted in this trial is on, political sand and might and we were proven right again. In a Bombshell Moment during crossexamination, defense attorney Todd Blanche Masterfully and singlehandedly Destroyed Whatl little shred of credibility Michael Cohen may ehave had left here and now, it started earlier this week when cohen testified aboutd october 24th, 2016 phone call he had with trumps body, shall her aand talk to trump. Edz he claimed he needed to talk to the boss after transferred aftei cohen transferred 130,000 to Stormy Daniels here the entire call lasted one minute and 36 seconds he read about textto messages from minutes before revealed that cohen wanted to talk to him about Something Else entirely. Prank calls from a 14yearold. S blanche said cohen text schiller n i speak to about office . And then he texted cohen so cohen called him. Now it seems like a lot of ground to cover in 90 seconds. C advice on a teenager in the details of paying off a porn star . Well, jughead knew we was caught. Michael cohen was cornered in what appeared to be a lie i think too many in the room and had to adjust suddenly his memory that he had just testified to on tuesday. Exam having just witnessed tht piece of conversation, do you have doubts the conversation happened the way cohen testified . Absolutely, absolutely. Laura cohen tried to clean t itru up when blanche accused him of lying and said he did not talk to him that night. M im not certain that was accurate. It was a perry mason moment,o which maybe this was here and how do you come back from that . Clearly, the prosecution has to figure out a way to go back at this and make it sound like a completely plausible story about which Michael Cohen was noing. Tn lying. In now laura joining me now, someone who was in the corner. Yo i was so jealous, martha, i was there on tuesday and you got to be here for the school momenty. And a host of the story which i love everyday. Martha, how does the jury believe anything Michael Cohen says after what transpired today . A w well as you know better n the rest of us, laura, this was a very methodical process. Ay we sold the initial reference to this call on tuesday. Thissayi was Michael Cohens waf saying after the boss told Me Ty Take Care of this business, pay her off, this was my sort of i wraparound call just a few weekv before the election to tell himu i had taken care of everything. Itph was all done, right . As you pointed out, it was a short phone call but it laid it out tuesday and this morning in the courtroom, at times it felt plotting and meandering and all about these different times that Michael Cohen had lied, set up situations where he didnt tell his wife about the home equity loan. Did you go back and tell her later . No, whate did you tell her . Did oath, did you take an oath when, you said i that . T he yes, i did. Othe did you take an oath today . That as, i did pure the oath you took the other Day Proceedings we took the other day. So we set it up with all of these times of inconsistent statements and times that you h like my times you are a perjurer if any are. Came back to the phone call and it was beautifully executed and laid tn and basically said to come are you lying . Y it is a very, powerful, succinct wraparound, right . But you know that all of this takes very careful execution. But this is what he was coming m arounday to, but is not finishe, laura, so there may be more to lay this down. It is looking increasingly like perhaps they wont call in aexa defense witnesses. This is the end of the crossexamination for the prosecutions case. If it continues to go this way,e it may be best to leave it right here, laura, for these jerks. Y o laura so dont redirect and go back to try to redirect. I mean, sometimes prosecutors will try to rehabilitate their key witness on redirect. On this case, if you saw Michael Cohens facial expressions as i did and marthas did, he was getting, he was getting nervous on tuesday when blanche got up there and he is a methodical lawyer and i mean, some of us wanted it to be quick, ten, 20 questions, might drop. He laid the foundation of the perjuring past of Michael Cohenf and then how it continued through his life. When i think it ends up being incredibly effective if maybe not as quick as some of us like this Crazy Culture Wy Cue live. I was watching the jurors faces and from long touches come i thought he is losing them. This is to meandering. Laura that is what i thought. And the of thing to say dilie dt light here, a perjurer and hen could have been tight on a lot of this. But you understand what he wasge doing. But i was worried he was losing them thisth morning. There was a fusion fidgeting,iv. Shifting in the seats and a couple of peoples attentive, tension is good and taking notes but other people seem to bethis wondering why he was going over and over this ground. I think it became very clear just before launch exactly whate his plan was and the snare he was laying appeared whether or not effective with the jury come of course we wont know for sevl days. But it certainly it certainly appeared to hammer that nail pretty well right before break today, laura. Laura to watch our colleagues on the other networks, no fans, excuse me, of donald trump to say the least. They were shocked. Martha, im so glad you were int there today and thank you for giving aodu so birdseye view e whole thing. Fox we appreciate it. Make sure to check out marthas Fox News Specials and the secrett journey and history of world war ii, season 3, fantastic. Check those out. Michael cohen didnt alreadyt no destroy alvin braggs prosecution when potentialtnes witness and martha said there might not be other witnesses called, but there is one who could feel the final blow perhaps, former cohen Legal Advisor unofficially, bob costello. He testified yesterday on capitol hill that Cohen Insistes to him on multiple occasionsp. Over two hours that he had nothinanytg on donald trump. Trump did not do Anything Wrongo but that is not all costelloould brought information to bragg. Why wouldnt open bragg talkh to you . You have to ask him that. When i talk to eight of his assistant das. Whehe what was that reception liker they did everything in their power not to ask me the questions that would elicit the exculpatory information. Is this the same information you took to the southernecid district . They were happy to the get it, o did they decide . They decided they did not use Michael Cohen for anything. Ks laura boy, so they stomp out from it like bragg didntas care that cohen had no credibility asring long as it wd help bring the case to bills bo mike against trump, which is turning for a prosecutor to dupe you are joining us now, bob costello. Great to see you. Catihave you been given indicatn that you could be a witness in this trial . No, that is not what has happened. Obviously, they have tbvioo wail until Examination Ofel c Michael Cohen is over, and then i am sure they will make a motion to try to get rid of thi, case. Im also sure that this judge, although we should dismiss the case, wont. And so the question is poised for todd blanche to decide who he is going to call as a witness. F i would think in light of theou Testimony Sei gave Yesterday Don at the house, that im very likely suspect. Im ready to go. Im telling the truth. It is ann easy story to tell, ac im not concerned at all. In laura well, when i was in the courtroom on tuesday yeah, Michael Cohen was asked about his various conversations with you, he kep thet the same,u know, pattern going that heth y wasnt being completely forthcoming or forthcoming at all with you about trump because he hadnt retained you. He he didnt quite like you. He didnt quite trust you. That is what basis im paraphrasing but that ising basically what he said tuesday. A he was trying to protect the president. To that you say . I read the transcript of cohen on the way down to washington. T virtually, every single thing he said about me was a lie. Who remember, it wasnt just me. I have my law partner who knew Michael Cohen for ten years sitting next to me. When we saw him in the regency hotel, this guy was by his own admission suicidal and he kept on saying come im looking for my escape route. Is. Tell me how i can avoid this because two nights before he said he was on the roof of the y ready to jump off. I didnt know whether to believt that or not, but i looked at my partner who knew him for ten t hoyears and he shook his head, a yes. E th he thought Michael Cohen was telling the truthim,h that he ws suicidal. During that entire time that we met him, at his request, by thes way, he didnt say sketchy hasob testified, that is nonsense. He said Rudy Giuliani was on board for the first meeting and that i was conspiring withe Rudy Giuliani that he was afrait that anything he said to me i would go right to Rudy Giuliani. Well, in fact, Rudy Giuliani did not represent donald trump for another three or four days. He was not in the picture at all all. Yet, michael voluntarily lies and embellishes stories just toe make himself look good. That is what he does laura he was trying to say c you were back channel into trump. He said you were back channeling for Rudy Giuliani to trump and t that is how this was going downc i want to play a challenge. Todd blanche representing trumpn do you remember telling costello you had nothing ononde President Trump and could not cooperate . Cohen responded, no, sir. T sablanche asked, do you not remember or are you sure you didnt say it . Cohen answered, i do not recall. Pret that is kind of classic come is dont recall. Pretty important moments in his life, right . Nk veriny crucial moment in his life. He was thinking about killing himself. Ther to him that there was a way to solve his problem if he had truthful information about donald trump because that is clearly where the Southern District was going then i told him, if that is the case come i can get you out of legal poems by the end of the week. Every time i brought it up, he said, i swear to god, bob, iny dont have anythinthg on donald trump. But i kept coming back to it toh make sure he knew that this was the way out if he wanted it or if he had truthful information. The bubbling he didnt have truthful information. He kept saying during the same meeting he would count his fist onto the table and point his finger at jeff and i and said, guys i will do whatever the f i have to do and do not spend with her one day in jail. W he blames donald trump for that. Now, i wonder though why he would go out of his way because he explained 130,000 transaction was all his idea and he said donald trump had nothing to do with it. Why would you take this burden on . He said, when i knew i spoke to im sorry, somebody yelled in my ear i knew when i spoke to Stormy Daniels lawyer that. She was going to say she had sex with donald trump. I didnt leave the allocationha but i knew it would be wou embarrassing to Melania Trump so i decided guyi would take caref this. Why would a guy decide to takeh care of Something Like that . During the conversations, michael revealed he was veryfact annoyed at the fact that when trump got elected, the entire inner circle went down frompers new york to washington, d. C. , except one person, our friend, Michael Cohen and it left him behind. It was clear he was blaming bad jared and you funko because he kept did bad mouthing them. Wa although we did not say specifically it was therefore that they didnt go to washington but what do you think would have happened if You Wentd To Washington and what job were you looking for . Believe it or not, i think i could have been Attorney General for the United States or atunny least i swear to god, or at least, Chief Of Staff to they president. I looked at the guy and i thought, hes delusional. This guy has no sense orwa selfworth or lack thereof. Laura he is insecure. He is obsessed. But doing this Payment Andback taking care of this was his way of getting himself back into the good graces of donald trump because he could then go to trump afterwards and say,ha balls, that is what he called him, he you could have had a big, embarrassing problem buts id come on michael koman, tooka care of it. bob, it is great to see you and your lycan oldw new york storyteller and but actually a story that People Cal Follow and facts that you can follow and we really appreciate taking time tonight.

Laura his comm Commencement Address to the catholic benedictine college, the Kansas City Chiefs kicker laidl on the line. Id never be afraid to confess the one holy catholic and Apostolic Church for this is the church that jesus christ established through which he received sanctifying grace. Laura he is merely repeating what he told us, notil to be afraid and basically saying, im with you. But the gatekeepers of our culture want us afraid. They want us silent, and yeah, they want us compliant. The world around us says weto should keep our beliefs to ourselves whenever they go against the tyranny of diversity, equity and inclusion. We fear speaking truth because now, unfortunately, truth is inh the minority. Laura he i is right, truth is under attack everywhere we we once took that for granted when we were going up which the left wants us to h believe somehow hoatw controversial or even hateful.

My success is made possible because the girl and met in band class back in Middlo School would convert to the faith and become my wife and embrace one of the most important titles of all homemaker. Laura that really rattled all the right cages. He they usually like it when men get emotional. Why do they like that . T notice what hes not sayingsnt there. He is not saying women should b stay home erwin and should neve be doctors or lawyers orto whatever they want to be or own their own businesses. He said one of the most important titles of all is homemaker here because home matters. You might have thought he issued a decree that women may never work again so. Neve it just feels like such a a huge step backwards in our culture. St and i thought we were so paste this and here we are againan beckons 50s.
