cohen was a witness here. kise is talking about cohen and not surprisingly accusing michael cohen of being a lawyer -- i'll look at what else they're saying about him. they're trying to undercut his credibility. he's not a key witness here. he does have a conviction for lying. calling him a liar is not inaccurate, though, michael cohen doesn't like it when people call him a lawyer. he accuses cohen of using this to call attention to his podcast. they're also noting a recent incident that was embarrassing for michael cohen where he used a.i., artificial intelligence, to drum up case citations. he works with a long-time friend, an attorney. he handed over these citations to that attorney who didn't check them. they were submitted to the court. that was highly embarrassing. seems irrelevant to the case at hand. kise is going there because michael cohen is the origin of the investigation. >> that was a plan months ago. they believe that if they made this case about michael cohen they could say, michael cohen has b

first he learned from roy cohen. then he searched for notice roy cohen after roy cohen died in 1986 after complications of aids and now in many cases he's become his own roy cohen. >> those words you said are sticking in my brain, attack, deny, delay. those are three words that, frankly, are very characteristic of the strategy trump has employed perhaps as a businessman, but certainly we've seen in recent days as a politician, candidate, defendant in all these matters. that strikes me as so fascinating, the idea of replacing one's roy cohen. remember that famous line where's my roy cohen? you're saying he found one in himself when he couldn't find one externally? >> it is him. it is not michael cohen. it is not rudy giuliani. it's not anybody, any of the many, many attorneys who have represented donald trump the last 50 years. it is donald trump himself who is his own roy cohen. he was perhaps roy cohen's best pupil, learned those lessons well starting in '73, certainly throughout the decade of the '70s into the earl

what michael cohen have to say this morning?s morning, the message from coalition strikes on multiple targets is clear. to prevent more attacks by the iran-backed militants on the most important shipping routes, the red sea. the u.s. and uk hit over 60 houthi targets including weapons he posed in radar systems. they are warning there could be further measures. priscilla alvarez is joining us now from the white house. what more is the administration saying about the 60 strikes. >> the resounding message from officials is this was a move to deescalate by degrading the capabilities of the hewitt houthis following multiple attacks in the red sea. the white house had called all of those attacks intolerable. >> now on tuesday there were additional attacks and that's what officials said marked the final straw. the president convening his national security team to review a list of military options and after that, the president directing the defense secretary austin to carry out the response, which as you mentioned there, included 60 tar

and in chris kise's closing arguments, talking about michael cohen saying he was the only witness for intent and conspiracy, he was right, he was their only witness. the attorney general says you have to find him credible. he's now accused of lying yet again. this is a serial liar. he comes to court and it couldn't get any better. he said trump asked allen weisselberg and me to change the statement of financial conditions and then he admits that president trump did not direct him to inflate the numbers. michael cohen told you the process using handwritten evidence and that belies the testimony from their own witness jeff mcconney, he's making up a story based on something that is convenient, he hates president trump and he makes money trashing president trump. what better reason to come here and create lies and gin up a bunch of media attention for his -- katie sat down with michael cohen, has a lot of reporting on this as well. interesting the way they're approaching michael cohen and the defense's closing arguments here. >> yeah. and katie, thoughts on that, also, you know, this is

cohen then went to work as a community organizer to tackle the issues of homeless teens and later as an administrator in a federally funded anti-poverty agency. he then went to law school to defend human rights a legal level and earned a doctorate of jurisprudence. since then he has worked on various lawsuits from those taking on the nsa spying program to others involving false. accusations targeting various minorities and individuals, defending patrice lumumba against accusations of the material support of terrorism and defending the hamas political leader against extradition by the israeli regime. due to his success in various such legal projects, stanley cohan has for long been a target for smearing campaigns and various threats which he has survived to date. well, thank you so much. stanley coin for being with us. i'd like to start off with mainstream media's favorite question: do you condemn hamas and what are the legal definitions of their actions according to law? i i like to respond to that question with who did you pick on before hamas from 1936 to 1985? the mainstream media

, back in 2019, cohen testified before congress that trump had misled the government and banks about his net worth to get more favorable terms on loans and for his taxes. and that testimony is part of what has brought us here to this civil case in new york. they also took aim at cohen's recent mishap where he relied on artificial intelligence to drum up some citations for a court case. now, they're taking aim at his credibility because they argue that cohen is the only one who testified here there was any intent to defraud. now, it's been interesting to watch the judge in this case. he has interrupted kise a few times, as you know, this at times, this case has been pretty combative. he has interrupted kise a few times today on some technical points. but i think there you're seeing the judge try to preserve the record for appeal because he knows whatever his final decision here is, will likely be appealed almost immediately. and this afternoon, of course, the district attorney will present her closing arguments or her team's closing arguments. >> okay, paula, thank you. i'm told as yo

. >> michael cohen has recanted all of his testimony. >> that is not quite accurate. michael cohen was asked on the stand at one point, did donald trump ever tell you specifically to falsify these amounts, and michael cohen said, that is not how donald trump operated, he didn't give us explicit instructions, we understood the general marching order. so, he didn't take everything back in his testimony. michael cohen has certainly got some credibility issues, but it was an overstatement as to what happened with him. >> jamie, this is probably one of the clearest examples we have seen to date, and there have been a number of them, trump using his many legal problems as his campaign platform. are there any signs the strategy isn't working for him? >> it seems quite the opposite, to be working for him. we see the numbers going up, as we discussed, you see is this, jake, is very effective. he shows up, he gets these speeches, he thinks it helps him with the voters, he thinks portraying himself as a victim helps them with fundraising, with getting his base riled up. so, i th
