That is one of the spookiest most gruesome scenes of any movie I've ever watched. She really did a great job of scary the heck out of me. Nothing else that scary...except when the little boy is out in the water and the sheriff hones in on the shark.

Cohen disappointed Trump didn't consider him for Chief of Staff position

Michael Cohen said he was disappointed that Donald Trump didn't consider him for his Chief of Staff role in the White House.

Trump didn't offer him the position, and Cohen even admitted he didn't "believe" the role was the right fit, but he just wanted his name included with other candidates.

“I had other ideas for myself that I wanted but I wanted to be considered. It was more about my ego than anything," Cohen said.

Michael Cohen's crisis response to Wall Street Journal's McDougal bombshell: blame 'Clinton machine'

Cohen testified about how key figures responded to a Wall Street Journal report that blew open the Karen McDougal story, after spending hours speaking about his role in 'catch and kill' matters.

Hope Hicks, who testified earlier, emailed Cohen with some proposed responses, which Cohen tersely described as an effort to 'deny.' She called the story 'false' and wanted to call out a 'publicity hungry individual.'

'We have nothing to do with this final attempt by the liberal elite to disparage Donald Trump and stop this historic movement,' was one of HIcks' proposed responses, just hours before the election.

Cohen wrote back with his preferred language

'Instead, say these accusations are completely untrue and just the latest despicable attempt by the liberal media and the Clinton machine to distract the public …' Cohen advised.

Asked if Trump was angry during this frantic period of damage control that could surface the Stormy Daniels story, Cohen said 'Yes. Because there was a negative story that could impact the campaign as a result of women.'

Prosecutors to continue questioning Cohen on Tuesday

The DA's office said just now that they expect their questioning of Cohen to go into at least part of Tuesday. That means Trump's lawyers won't be able to start what's expected to be a fiery cross-examination until at least tomorrow

"Peggy Peterson,"?  That name could give a look into Cohen's proclivities.

Trump listed as 'David Dennison' and Daniels as 'Peggy Peterson' in hush money contract shown to jurors

Jurors took another look this afternoon at a copy of a hush money contract struck between Cohen and Daniels that used fake names to describe Trump and Daniels.

Daniels' name was marked down as "Peggy Peterson," while Trump's was "David Dennison," the document shows.

Cohen also said he falsely called the $130,000 a "retainer" on a wire transfer form, when it was really a hush money payment.

A year later, Trump's company falsely marked the reimbursements to Cohen as "legal services" on filings throughout 2017, trial evidence shows.

Michael Cohen, an ex-con who's served prison time

Michael Cohen pleaded guilty in two separate federal cases in 2018 and did prison time for the crimes.

Cohen first copped to tax evasion, making false statements to a bank and to campaign finance violations in August 2018 in connection to the hush money payments he arranged to be paid to porn star Stormy Daniels and to Playboy model Karen McDougal on President Trump's behalf.

He then pleaded guilty in November 2018 for lying to Congress about his efforts during the presidential campaign to seek approvals and financing from the Russian government for a Trump development project in Moscow. Cohen said he lied to match his story with Trump's "political messaging."

Then in December, Cohen was sentenced to three years behind bars but he was released to home confinement after just over a year in May 2020 in an effort to reduce the spread of COVID in prisons.

Cohen was freed from home confinement in November 2021.

He previously testified against Trump at a civil fraud trial last year, where Trump's team sought to discount his testimony based on the fact he's a convict and admitted liar. Trump's lawyers will likely also attack Cohen's credibility at the current trial.

Cohen says he 'wanted credit for myself' after Stormy Daniels deal was done
By Post Staff

Michael Cohen told jurors he immediately told Donald Trump that the Stormy Daniels deal was done on Oct. 27, 2016 -- two weeks before the presidential election -- because he wanted "credit" from his then-boss.

“The task he gave to me was finished, accomplished and done,” Cohen testified, adding he sent Trump the update “to take credit for myself so that he knew I had done it and finished it, because this was important.”

Cohen says he spoke with Hope Hicks, David Pecker after learning about WSJ story
By Kyle Schnitzer

Michael Cohen said he spoke with Donald Trump's communications chief Hope Hicks and National Enquirer publisher David Pecker to plan a defense after learning that a Wall Street Journal story set to be published would not only mention Playboy model Karen McDougal but also would mention Stormy Daniels.

Jurors were shown a call log of Cohen’s calls, which he confirmed and then explained the situation.

He said he spoke with the pair “so that we could all coalesce around this issue in an attempt to again quell the potential effects of an article like this."

Our entire food supply vegetables, dairy 🧈 industry and meat production is done by illegals on huge corporate farms.Native Americans will never work in those slaughterhouses field work picking crops in any measurable way to make a difference.

The hospitality industry, maids, dishwashers, are all illegals  or peoole on work permits.

Trump will build a wall and keep our the criminal but will vet millions in. Our economy would collapse w/o illegals because our native birth rate  is heading to negative numbers
Illegals  who obtain work permits also get a fed govt id number and they do pay into SS 

In my area Hispanics do most of the tree trimming and lawn care and I live in a whitebread area.  Young white males will just not do this work or they are all on drugs, no drivers license and lazy with poor attitudes. Not all but enough.. It's pitiful

@banddag You are full of it.  First of all, ILLEGALS don't assimilate.  If that were the case I wouldn't have to press 1 on the phone to hear English and 2 for Spanish. They wouldn't be getting free housing, healthcare, and food. I have witnessed BOA giving out loans with only a matricula card; basically no verified U.S. citizenship needed for loans, bank accounts and credit cards.

Secondly, many contractors hire ILLEGALS in order to underbid other contractors who don't hire ILLEGALS so in essence ILLEGALS are taking jobs away from Americans. It's not a matter of Americans not wanting the jobs. Same goes for agriculture -- there are plenty of dairy farmer and cattle ranchers that are hurting because once again, they can't compete with the cheap ILLEGALS labor.

There are plenty of CNA's, LPN's and nurses who work that are not of 'ILLEGAL' descent.  Same goes for maids, cooks, dishwashers, etc. 

As for population -- open your eyes.  The gov't just went after folks in nursing homes with this mandated COVID b.s. to wipe out the elderly population -- they've gone after LEGAL Americans and insisted and mandated the COVID vaccine.  Those vaccines have proven to have cause adverse side effects in younger people, and in some instances death.  IMHO I believe that there is the possibilities that the vaccines given to our youth have made them sterile.

Do you think all the ILLEGALS have been given the vaccines?  Heck they're coming across without being vaccinated for measles, rubella, polio, tuberculosis, etc.

The gov't is trying to lower the U.S. population.  Why?? Yet you're claiming that our population is so low that we need ILLEGALS.  I declare b.s.

Oh, and back to your comment about vetting. Please explain how are they supposed to vet an ILLEGAL???  Look their name up on the computer and if nothing shows up let them through?  Do you think that they're all waiting patiently and nicely in line to give their story and apply for asylum?  What qualifies them for asylum???  How do you vet a refugee??? Most are coming in without even being noticed.  Our border is NOT complete.  There are many areas that they can just come across.

This has been a problem for decades.  It is nothing new.  However, it's now being addressed because of the 7,000,000 let in under Brandon and those are just the ones that they can account for. People in NY, Chicago and Denver are now realizing exactly what is happening.
