sater by reporter for the associated press. he stated, "felix sater -- boy, i have to even think about it." he added, "i am not that familiar with him." mr. cohen, where would we find business records that explain the president's relationship to the convicted russian mobster felix sater customer up with those be in the trump organization files? >> mr. cohen: they would be in the files, they would be ccs to bay rock, the name of his company. i suspect on his email address, possibly hard files. in possession of mr. sater. >> when you say in possession of the trump organization -- where? >> mr. cohen: it depends upon who the attorney was that was working on it. now it would probably be in a box off-site. they have a storage facility that they put old files end. >> in addition to convicted russian mobster sater, do you know of any other ties to convicted or alleged mobster's president trump may have? >> mr. cohen: i am not aware. >> is it true that many people with ties to russia ultimately bought condos in trump properties? usuall

felix sater. we'll be learning a lot more about this guy over the next couple of weeks. rather complicated background as we heard from evan perez, once in business with the russian maf mafia, later convicted. became an fbi informant, at one point was intimately involved with planning the development of a trump tower in moscow that could have generated potentially millions if not hundreds of millions of dollars. what do you think he could bring to the table? >> let's say another man with a less than stellar track record of associates and activities that president trump sought to bring into his orbit. wolf, it depends in front of whom he's testifying. we found out he will be testifying in front of the house intelligence committee and democrats in the house are really playing this from a team perspective. house intelligence committee is looking into counterintelligence issues. i would expect those kinds of questions to come up in his testimony in march. and we have the house oversight committee, which has really limited its investigation to false statements by the president

>> yes. >> to conviction russian mobster felix sater pay rent for his office?no, he did not. >> so based on those facts, isn't it true that president worst,isled, at best, or light under oath? >> yes. amy: 10 seconds, marcy wheeler, the significance of this? guy broke green the tower deal all through the election and trump made similar commenents during the election about not knowing felix sater, when in fact, he was negotiating a $300 million real estate deal russians forced of immigrant elijah cummings at the end of the hearing. do believe the president committed crime while in office? looking at the text anand l listening to mr. cohen,t appears that he did. amy: "it appears he committed a crime," said the house committee chair elijah cummings. that does it for our coverage today. today. the western is the best type of picture. it's action. you have background. scenery, color. and that's why they're interesting. it's the great american form; it's so simple and elemental, it represents the schizophrenia of the american experience. just when the western seems l

russia, putin, trump -- let's connect them," whether it was trying to build a trump tower, and felix sater, a russian-american who worked for president trump saying, "if we connect vladimir putin and donald trump, we can engineer this and make our boy president." he never turned down those offers. in fact, after it was revealed that the russians were attacking our democracy, he went to a press conference and said, "russia, keep doing it," essentially. >> we're familiar with that sequence of events. >> and that's evidence. that's evidence. >> no, but as a prosecutor, that wouldn't be evidence in court. i mean, as a prosecutor, you know the difference between hard evidence and circumstantial evidence. >> i think an admission by a defendant is the most powerful evidence, and saying -- asking somebody to continue to commit a crime, after they've already committed a crime -- i mean, that is eagerness to collude. i don't know what else to call it. and then i think you have consciousness of guilt by all of these follow-up cover-up actions. again, people only tell someone else to lie, people only

that's the best evidence we have with michael cohen working with russian-american felix sater, talkingbout the kremlin trump tower moscow deal. and then fast forward to the trump tower meeting they took and moved heaven and earth to make happen. then you have the president inviting the russians to keep hacking. now we know in this hot month of august where there's so much activity, again, the president's chairman is sitting down with a meeting with this ukrainian-tied individual. again, they're trying to win in the united states. why are you working with so many russians? it doesn't make sense unless you believe the russians can help you. i think they were all too eager to take the russians' help. ? congressman, talk about a hot month of august. it's been a hot february. this was the first time it was described to me as a unicorn sighting, seeing andrew weiss man quoted at the heart of the probe. do you feel like the mueller probe, perhaps under the direction of a new attorney general, do you think that you got honest answers from outgoing acting attorney general matt whitaker? or was

sater. >> you said you lied about the negotiations to bring don michaels has moscow tower because he made it clear to you that he wanted you to live. one of the reasons you knew this is because, "mr. trump's personal layers stomach lawyers edited my statement to collis about the timing of the negotiations before i give it." this is a pretty breathtaking claim and i want to get to the facts come here. which specific lawyers reviewed and edited your statement to congress on the moscow tower negotiations, and did they make any changes?" >> mr. cohen: there were changes made it. jay sekulow, for one -- >> was there to do by the time a customer next week of the gentleman's time has expired. you may answer that question. >> mr. cohen: there are several changes made including how we are going to handle that message. >> will you finish? >> mr. cohen: the message of course being the length of time that the trump tower moscow project stayed and remained alive. >> that was one of the changes? >> first of all, i would like to clear up something prejust a little something that bothers me. you sta

other characters who may have been involved beyond the names made public over the years, like felix saterhas ties to the russian mafia and finally, there is a strong belief there may be other women beyond karen macdougall and stormy daniels who may have been silenced. the question is what more is in david pecker's safe. >> if you're just waking up, we have the draft opening statement michael cohen will provide before the house oversight committee at 10:00 eastern time and he new about the hack by wikileaks and knew about the trump tower meeting the subject of so much speculation in june of 2016. that he in fact has signed checks, cohen has signed checks from president trump, while in the white house, while president of the united states in 2017, to help with payoffs of stormy daniels. one other thing to remember, michael cohen has been with the special counsel for 70 hours providing testimony on everything he knows. richard haass, i want to go back to the other track we are on here, the summit in hanoi with kim jong un. i think i heard correctly as the president offered those spray remark
