  1. Why are we wasting taxpayer money to go after someone for paying a pornstar? If January 6th is not enough then move on.

  2. Break laws pay the price no matter who you are…That's it.

  3. Past due to put CHEETOMAN behind bars ! Somebody needs to indict this loser like yesterday!

  4. It's also unprecedented that a former president has committed so many crimes.

  5. JUSTICE FOR ALL COHEN was found gu

  6. JUSTICE FOR ALL COHEN was found gu

  7. Ol Preet. The most hated US attorney ever. No one complained when trump canned him. Trump saved Bill Deblasio

  8. Anyone who votes for Trump in 2024 should be classified as TOTALLY INSANE…

  9. We do NOT CARE about Trump's VIRGIN PROBLEMS🔥🏴‍☠️

  10. He's not gonna be charged and he's not gonna be arrested so get the FARK over it you bunch of 🤡s. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂Your news out lit is LYING to the people all bull 💩. YOUR WRONG AH.

  11. What’s happening to the Biden corruption scandal NBC why so quiet …Hunter’s emails all available to view …What about Pelosi’s years of insider trading ..? Good to see fake news switching the narrative and keeping dishonesty as their core objective

  12. Oh lord just come on with it already and officially charge that criminal. African Americans are charged all the time for crimes and at least half of them are innocent. They are still charged though. That person has done the things he is being accused of and the only person who seems in doubt is Merrick Garland. If President Biden runs for reelection and is lucky enough to defeat his rival, then let us pray that he replaces Attorney General Garland with someone who has courage and is not so cautious with dishing out Justice to criminals.

  13. The Female wrote a letter Saying Different SIGNED BY HER ..
    MAKES IT A SLAM DUNK BUST CASE

  14. Trump's own Supreme Court determined that "no one is above the law" so it does not matter one bit that tRump "was" a president. He was twice impeached too.

  15. maga have declared war on America… ignore them at our peril…

  16. Trump is going to shoot someone on 5th Ave. That's how desperate he is. I pray every day that Trump ,Don Jr, Kimberly nasty Jr ,Ivamka and Jared and Steven Miller just all get blown away in a tornado of justice.

  17. all Trump needs to do is to pay the judge some hush money

  18. Bill Clinton was a master of covering up affairs.

  19. I don't know why bharara is in the head of the DoJ they would all be in jail by now

  20. It’s complete garbage as with it all.

  21. The Trump Derangement Syndrome continues…..

  22. The trilogy a pig, snake and rat. Guess who’s who on this wall of shame.

  23. Liberals grasping at straws😂

  24. America used to produce goods and services. Now all we produce are endless investigations. Trump really does have the number 1 T.V. show now because the world is watching him, which is really all he ever wanted. That and blind obedience which his GOP is fearfully providing. What kind of threat to you or your family would get you to sell out your Country? Ya, that's the one.

  25. Is that what they call that. Hush money? No such thing as a guarantee on any investment.

  26. eye liner? sorry, that's what I came away with.

  27. NBC News tricked me into watching Meet the Press. The host is repulsive and the show is normally under its own heading. Not this time, MTP was under the NBC News logo. A click is a click, it counts and I’m not going to support Meet the Press until it gets a respectable host.

  28. This guy aged a lifetime in 5 years.

  29. His claims that any investigation into his doings is correctly labeled as political is simply his idea of a get out of jail free card. His misdeeds have political ramifications, but that's on him.

  30. Hey so if he gets charged and sent to prison, which id love. What about all the democrats like Nancy pelosi and the Clinton's that commit bank and tax fraud and inside trading

  31. Another fat L for the lunatic liberals

  32. Michael Cohen serial liar and perjurer… pled to a non charge to help the anti Trump prosecutors…purely invented….

  33. Bragg is crumbling tp pressure on a very old NON case at the 11th hour, someone pressured him……

  34. Lol, how Bragg is handling it yes it is its pretty obvious. The media knows as well but this gets ratings. Bragg failed to see if his bombshell witness Cohen signed an attorney client privilege waiver, or any signed court docs and emails dismantling his case. Cld the grand jury in NY indite with no evidence of course, mug shot and released. Campaign ad and merchandise created.

  35. Have you ever heard an American Republican / Drumpf supporter say:

    • ''I support Drumpf and the GOP, but I draw the line at and cannot support their continued fight to ban all Muslims'', or

    • ''I support Drumpf and the GOP, but I draw the line at and cannot support their continued fight to ban of all gays'', or

    • ''I support Drumpf and the GOP, but I draw the line at and cannot support their continued fight to deport all DACA Dreamers'', or

    • ''I support Drumpf and the GOP, but I draw the line at and cannot support their continued fight to build the greatest wall since China, trying to force the already poorer nation to pay, etc’’, or

    • ''I support Drumpf and the GOP, but I draw the line at and cannot support their continued fight to control all female bodily autonomy, etc’’, or

    • ''I support Drumpf and the GOP, but I draw the line at and cannot support their continued fight to separate immigrant and refugee children as an often permanently orphaning child torture-based deterrent’’, or

    • ''I support Drumpf and the GOP, but I draw the line at and cannot support their treasonous continued fight for a white supremacist, fascist, Christian coup / civil war''?!?!

    Me either.

    Putin thought Drumpf and the GOP would've been dictators of a new USA by now and supporting his every desire.

    Every American Republican and/or Drumpf supporter is inescapably a traitor and a radical bigot, fighting for a white supremacist, fascist, Christian dictatorship / civil war, just like the slavery-defending Confederates they literally idolize.

  36. Trumps level of overt criminality is unprecedented, therefore everything that follows is also unprecedented.

  37. You got nothing on any case. No conviction on any count. Boo hoo hooty hoo hoo hoo 😢😢😢😢

  38. I would like to listen to Preet, but I cannot stand Chuck's insipid hand wringing.

  39. The Tide is Turning … Stormi Weather off the coast of Florida with 100% chance of Karma !
