Episode Details

This week on Look Forward, Jay and Brad dig heavily into the seven-hour Michael Cohen congressional testimony. They also discuss the rest of Trump's chaotic week with North Korea, Roger Stone, and much much more!!! SHOW NOTES

• A LOT
  • -(Clip) Cohen states that he was in the room when Roger Stone called Trump and was on speaker phone to hear him state that Wikileaks was going to be dropping new email data in the coming days. This is important because Mueller team says they have proof that Stone lied about not speaking with Trump about Wikileaks. Stone is also on the record (on Tucker Carlson's show) stating that he knows that Trump put in his written answers to Mueller that he never talked to Stone about Wikileaks. Thus Michael Cohen isn't lying and Trump committed perjury.
  • Cohen makes mention that Trump's lawyers reviewed and edited his statements that he was to give before Congress on the Trump Tower in Moscow project, instead of Trump directing him to lie. Thus showing that the Mueller team was right to rebuff the story, but Buzzfeed was ultimately correct.
  • - (Clip) AOC goes after Trump's alleged fraud in devaluing his golf properties, as well as, devaluing his father's real estate before inheriting it (for himself and his siblings).
  • - Cohen calls Trump a racist, con man, and a cheat
  • - Cohen says Trump knew about the hacked emails ahead of time
  • - Cohen tells story of likely DJT Jr telling his dad that the Trump Tower meeting was officially setup.
  • - Cohen states that Trump inflated and deflated his wealth, and lied to Deutsche Bank to get a loan to buy the Buffalo Bills
  • Jackie Spires...MORE MORE MOOOOORE
  • Mark Meadows is racist
• Donnie had a rough one this week
  • Trump leaves NK empty-handed (again)

  • Jared clearance
• BAH GAWD, THAT’S...THAT’S...RAND PAUL’S MUSIC?
