So Michael Cohen, Donald Trump's former fixer, the star witness against him in the New York City criminal case, somebody I used to know. I've done interviews with Michael Cohen. I've spoken to Michael Cohen before. I wasn't friends with him, but I knew him. He is now going back to Donald Trump. Why you ask, who knows? There's some theories going out there, but Michael Cohen is grifting from MAGA now, which is very, very disappointing. He apparently, according to Trump, has recanted his testimony. And now they're like friends again. They're like hanging out. And Michael Cohen is helping. the Republicans win elections. He went from being Trump's fixer to being on the right side of history and calling out Donald Trump's crime, corruption, and insanity, and now he's gone back to MAGA.

It's just so strange that on the sinking Titanic ship, that is MAGA, if somebody offers you a free table on the ship, you're not going to take it. Michael Cohen has said, yeah, I'm in. Let's do it. It's very, very strange. And so I want to cover the story with you and talk about it because it is important. And we'll get into that in just a moment. But Donald Trump on social media the other day, September 4th said, I am pleased to report that Michael Cohen, the prosecution's star witness and in actuality only witness in the New York State Attorney General and Manhattan DA, witch hunt case is brought against me, which was not true. It was not the only witness.

Has just fully recanted his testimony. He was pressured and coerced to say things that were not true. I would like to thank Michael for having the wisdom encouraged to step forward and do the right thing. His active bravery is a great credit to the justice system in New York City and state. I am sure it was not easy for him. Now we are asking that any remnant of those politically weapon, cases against me be immediately terminated and dismissed. It's not how it works. Their star witness said everything they did was wrong and unlawful. Leticia James and Alvin Bragg broke the law in order to

do this in order to prevent me from becoming president of the United States. Such a thing can never be allowed to happen again. Thanks for your attention to this matter. So reminder, Donald Trump was convicted by a jury of his peers on every single charge against him. Michael Cohen was not the only witness. He knew a lot about Donald Trump. Was with Donald Trump for a lot of this was central to the case, but he was not the only witness in this case, to be clear. And also, you can't just demand on social media that the case be thrown out and then have that happen. And it's one thing for Michael Cohen to say to Donald Trump, yeah, I was pressured. It's another for him to say that under oath. You can say anything outside the courtroom. You can say anything on social media for clicks, but will you say it

under oath? That's a different question. So he can recant it all he wants to get Donald Trump's favor. It doesn't actually change anything about the case. And Michael Cohen, for some reason, is now sucking up to Donald Trump. He was on CNN recently talking about repairing his relationship with Trump, and this is what he said. It is really just a disgusting example of grifting in our politics to go from Trump's fixer to hating Trump to loving Trump. Nonsense. The answer is actually much simpler than people want it to be. The answer is, is that we forgave. And not because the past didn't happen, not because the scars disappeared, not because every day. disagreement suddenly becomes irrelevant and certainly not because I have forgotten anything.

I have not. But remember this. Forgiveness does not require amnesia. It requires the courage to stop allowing yesterday to dictate tomorrow. How would you describe your relationship with the president right now? It's being resuscitated. Well, let me just ask you because you say that you haven't forgotten the past. You testified under oath, obviously, that President Trump directed you to commit crimes. Do you stand by that? So let me say this. I will not discuss what I had said in the past, what I had stated under oath. I will not go there simply because I want to live for the future. I refuse to be pulled back into yesterday's news and yesterday's headlines so that a slew of people can turn around and start to try to pull it apart. I truly believe that there is forgiveness

between Donald Trump and myself. And that to me is what is important right now. That is cowardly shit. And I don't swear on the show often, but that is some cowardly shit. Okay? Because Michael Cohen says, well, I won't talk about what I said in the past under oath. I won't say that. I can't talk about it, which number one is a major cop out because he's claimed very serious things against Donald Trump in the past, such as that he directed him to commit crimes. So you won't talk about that. But apparently Michael Cohen will go to Donald Trump and talk about what he said under oath then. So he's picking and choosing what to talk about from the past. So either you don't talk about the past or you do. Which one is it? Well, he's picking to do

what's convenient for him, which gets him back into Donald Trump's orbit, which why would you want to be in that guy's orbit? Nobody likes Donald Trump. I mean, his numbers are terrible. But we'll talk about that in just a moment. He's also announced that apparently he's speaking or wanting to speak, I guess is speaking, at the RNC, the Republican convention that they're having in Dallas.

Why are you selling yourself to these ghouls, to these bad people who you have said committed crimes that are bad people? You're speaking at their convention? It is such a grift. It is a disgusting and on the point of why would you want to tie yourself to these people? Check out these numbers. Why would you want to be connected to this? It means this. Take a look here. Trump's negative net approval rating. Every single poll, every single poll since March 29, 2025 has had Trump in the negative. He has been in the negative in every single poll since that point. You know how many days in a row that is? You know how many days in a row that is? Well, depending on when you watch this,

It's going to be about 500 days in a row plus. If you're watching this on Sunday, it's a little bit less than 500 days. It's more like 498 days in a row. But if you're watching it afterwards, it's 500 days. Now, 500 days straight with negative approval rating. And Michael Cohen's like, yeah, let me get back associated with that. But some people have some theories as to why he's doing this. And of course, it comes back to Epstein.

Now, these are just theories. They're not confirmed, but some people have some theories. So Michael Cohen in the past has actually defended Donald Trump's connection with Jeffrey Epstein. And this was even when he was still anti-Trump. He defended Donald Trump's connection with Epstein, which raised a lot of eyebrows for people. Like, why are you defending that? What? Why are you doing that?

That's a little peculiar. I don't think there's any defense for Donald Trump's connection to Epstein. He found one. And some people are theorizing. This is JoJo from Jurz, who used to know Michael Cohen as well, saying, weird how once the pressure to release the Epstein files really started ramping up, Michael Cohen, who I once foolishly trusted, went running back to Trump. Hell of a coincidence, ain't it? It is, I would agree. Here's Wajat Ali saying quid pro quo,

but we have to keep asking, what does Michael Cohen know about Epstein, Trump, and these survivors who are now in hiding? There's a big story there. Because remember, Michael Cohen was was Donald Trump's lawyer and fixer and just aid for many, many years. In the years where Epstein was still alive and, well, allegedly still had some communication. communication with Donald Trump. So you're telling me that they never crossed paths. You didn't hear anything. You never talked about it with Trump. That I find very, very difficult to believe. I'm going to be honest. And here's one from Chip Franklin talking about the timeline and the evidence here, which could suggest maybe it might be connected to the Epstein files.

The rise in the eventual fall of MAGA will have rats fleeing for safety, hoping that we don't remember who they are and what they've done. Why does you want to go in? Storm in the Capitol. It's a revolution. We have thousands of people. As much as I load these cockwaffles who not only attacked our democracy, but sent over 100 Capitol Hill cops

to the hospital, I have to acknowledge that as evil as they are, they're not Michael Cohen. Boss, you remember when I was by your side? This is Michael Cohen. Once called him Von Schittsson pants. A huge fucking rat who left Trump and pled guilty, asking for our support and forgiveness. Mr. Trump is a con man.

Some of us forgave him, but not me. I never trusted him, and when I interviewed him, I asked him straight up. How do we know that if Trump opened his ass and invited you back in, you wouldn't go? He stumbled around and said, well, why would I? And I hate being right, but that's exactly what he did. A stunning, unexpected reunion between President Trump and his former fixer and personal attorney, Michael Cohen. Now, a few things here.

One, why is Michael Cohen trying to get back with Trump? Cohen's actions is Trump's personal attorney and fixer led to his own federal criminal convictions. Cohen admitted that he routinely violated his moral compass to protect Trump, like he has a fucking moral compass. I respect the fact that you recanted everything you said. Cohen acted as Trump's legal enforcer, threatening critics, journalists, institutions, and individuals not only with lawsuits, but their personal safety. Carrying out illegal acts that President Trump told him to do. So why is he pulling in Mike Johnson now?

Only one reason makes sense. Cohen joined the Trump organization as a special counsel back in 2006, operating as Trump's personal lawyer and fixer. So what was he fixing? In 2021, as part of Galane Maxwell's trial, it was revealed that Donald Trump lied about riding on Epstein's plane. He actually flew on it seven times. Look at the timeline.

He started working for Trump in 06, and in 2008, Trump buddy Jeffrey Epstein was convicted at a Florida state court. He got a slap on the wrist by prosecutor Alex Acosta, who approved a secret deal where Epstein pleaded guilty to state charges involving minors. And Acosta was later rewarded by Trump with a job as Secretary of Labor. The deal shielded Epstein at potential unnamed co-conspirators from federal prosecution. And who was in the middle of it all? attorney Michael Cohen. Conman. Cohen like Todd Blanche has intimate knowledge of Trump's attacks on young

girls. How much does Cohen know and even more to the point? Did he participate? The question, could Trump have been told about what's in the millions of unreleased documents and could Michael Cohen be in them? Or could- I mean, I think there are some valid questions there of like, what does Michael Cohen know and why of all of the topics about Trump that he chose to defend while being anti-Trump, which we know as a con, but why of all the topics he picked? it was Epstein. I want to defend Donald Trump's connection with Epstein. It is pretty weird. And I think there are some questions that he really should be answering given the severity of that, that connection that Donald Trump had. But look, the idea of like a quid pro quo that you help me, I help you

politically is not new in Donald Trump's orbit, to put it mildly. Like, for example, there was the whole thing with Eric Adams, where Eric Adams, the Democratic mayor of New York City was anti-Trump. and then he got arrested for some connections to Turkey, some money laundering, some campaign finance violations, and then all of a sudden he's pro-Trump and then all of a sudden his charges get dropped. You know, this is not new. And of course, more recently, Galane Maxwell has been asking for clemency in exchange for testimony that will prove Trump is innocent. And of course, she is currently sitting in a low-level security prison in Texas after being moved from a high-level security prison in Florida, which once again, why that happened, the Trump administration has never told us why that happened.

So I just think this is just so disappointing. I mean, people over the years had been saying to me behind the scenes, and I'll be honest with you, that Michael Cohen is a grifter, that if given the opportunity, he would go right back to Donald Trump, and they were calling him pathetic and things like that for that reason. And I wanted to believe that that wasn't true. I wanted him to prove me wrong, especially in the Trump years. And he has proven everybody I've ever spoken to about him right. and that's really disappointing.

So I will leave it there. Thank you so much for watching. Please make sure to subscribe down below, drop a like on the video, comment, let me know what you think about this stuff. Have an amazing rest of your day. Two and five Canadians will hear the words you have cancer.
