FULL TRANSCRIPT

0:00

as we're about to go through the Trump

0:02

indictment and continue to hear updates

0:04

on the Trump case uh apparently the

0:06

Manhattan district attorney is now

0:09

suggesting that Trump's scheme included

0:12

a thirty thousand dollar payment to a

0:14

former Trump doorman who alleged that

0:17

Trump fathered a child out of a wedlock

0:20

again uh worth remembering mark your

0:23

calendar for these dates uh we have the

0:26

judge has set the next court hearing for

0:28

December 4th Trump's legal team has said

0:31

that motions to potentially dismiss or

0:33

otherwise are due within four months so

0:36

that means August promotions December

0:38

for the next court appearance and

0:41

potentially a trial nine months from now

0:44

in January of 2024 worth also

0:48

remembering that these counts against

0:49

Trump are only felonies if they are used

0:53

or or if the actual uh

0:56

instance of concealment was done with

0:59

the intent to defraud and as a way to

1:04

potentially commit another crime let's

1:06

get into some more details what the

1:08

practice is let's do a quick breakdown

1:09

of the complete indictment against

1:12

Donald Trump it's 16 pages long but

1:14

surprisingly it won't actually take that

1:16

long to go through because the

1:18

indictment doesn't really give us

1:20

anything juicy it doesn't give us

1:22

evidence it doesn't tell us potentially

1:25

what crime was elevated that is remember

1:28

what Donald Trump is being charged with

1:30

here falsifying business records on its

1:33

own if you write you know a check uh for

1:37

a restaurant meal for you and your wife

1:39

and then you say it was a business

1:41

expense that potentially and and even

1:43

though you did no business maybe that

1:45

could be argued as falsifying business

1:46

records right that might be a

1:48

misdemeanor generally falsifying

1:50

business records or misdemeanor if now

1:53

that potentially LED you to cover up

1:55

that you actually

1:57

stole the money you used to pay for that

2:00

dinner because you edited the source of

2:03

the check or the signature or you used

2:04

somebody else's check it could be argued

2:07

that that misdemeanor is now going to

2:09

get elevated to a felony a classy felony

2:11

in New York it's the lowest class of

2:13

felony that exists but that's

2:15

essentially what's being done with

2:17

Donald Trump here the argument is hey

2:19

you know you paid off essentially Stormy

2:23

Daniels through Michael Cohen maybe not

2:26

the Trump organization or uh the Trump

2:29

campaign itself but maybe use your

2:31

family trust to do it which kind of

2:33

circumvents and finds the hole in

2:35

Michael Cohen's attorney's a letter

2:36

saying Donald Trump never reimbursed the

2:38

money so going down that hole if Donald

2:40

Trump then had his trust commit uh

2:43

basically uh or reimburse Stormy Daniels

2:46

via Michael Cohen uh for a hush money

2:51

for her not making comments during

2:54

Trump's political campaign then the

2:56

argument that New York is trying to make

2:58

is well you making that payment in a

3:01

roundabout way was a misdemeanor

3:03

falsifying documents but it also in our

3:05

opinion violated campaign Finance rules

3:07

so now we're going to elevate it to a

3:08

felony that is essentially the

3:11

allegation here uh and we don't really

3:13

get much more evidence of it here's the

3:15

actual set now what I've done is I've

3:17

gone through and just highlighted the

3:18

stuff that's not copy and paste because

3:21

most of this indictment of the 34 counts

3:24

is copy and paste so the 34 counts I

3:28

will read each of the 34 counts to you

3:30

specifically the parts that are

3:31

different an invoice for Michael Cohen

3:33

dated Feb 14 2017. a detailed general

3:37

ledger from Donald Trump a revocable

3:39

trust a detailed general ledger from

3:42

Donald Trump revocable trust with a

3:43

different number a check and check stuff

3:45

from Feb 14. on invoice from Michael

3:48

Cohen that's already count five count

3:51

six a voucher from the general ledger of

3:54

the accounting books a Czech stub count

3:57

seven a false entry of business records

4:00

account eight this is all related to the

4:02

same stuff detailed General entry count

4:04

uh nine check number and check stub

4:07

count ten you've got an invoice from

4:11

Michael Cohen dated May 22nd count 11.

4:14

a false entry of business record into

4:17

detail of the general alleger for Donald

4:20

Trump with a voucher number count 12

4:22

count 13 check number and check date uh

4:27

or check stub count 14 false entry of

4:29

business records and uh uh from an

4:31

invoice of uh Michael Cohen then we've

4:34

got an entry into detailed Ledger for

4:37

Donald J Trump bearing voucher number

4:39

blah blah blah maintained by uh the uh

4:42

Trump organization count 16 account uh

4:46

check and check stub dated June 19th so

4:49

it's basically every single check and

4:52

invoice that was potentially used to

4:54

reimburse uh uh Michael uh Cohen

4:59

or is being counted here count uh here's

5:02

count 17 which is another invoice from

5:03

Michael Cohen count 18 general ledger

5:06

count uh 19. uh a check count a 20 and

5:11

invoice count 21. uh a uh uh general

5:15

ledger entry as which is basically three

5:18

per right it's invoice Ledger check

5:21

invoice Ledger check here's another

5:23

account number 22. check count 23

5:26

invoice count 24 general ledger count

5:29

number 25 check count number 26 invoice

5:34

count 27 entry count 28 check see the

5:38

pattern here count 29 invoice count to

5:41

twenty uh or sorry uh I'm already on uh

5:44

count 30. uh uh a general ledger entry

5:47

uh account number 31 check and then can

5:49

you get the can you guess what's gonna

5:50

be next invoice Ledger

5:53

check stop that's literally it over and

5:57

over and over again here the same

5:59

allegation I think the only one that's

6:01

really different is the first one here

6:03

uh although this is uh no it's an

6:06

invoice from Michael Cohen so invoice uh

6:08

it doesn't even really matter because

6:10

none of them are really unique so it

6:11

looks like a couple Ledger entries maybe

6:13

for the first one that's how we get

6:15

three counts per uh and maybe these are

6:18

11 checks and and one of them had two

6:20

entries or something like that so

6:22

there's no evidence here uh there's uh

6:24

they're just allegations there's no

6:26

evidence of why they're elevating this

6:28

to a felony there's nothing now we

6:31

expect the D.A to give some kind of

6:33

press conference breaking down these 34

6:35

different allegations here uh but the

6:38

next court hearing is now set for

6:40

December 4th motions are due in four

6:44

months which would be August so motion's

6:46

due in August

6:47

the uh uh Court proceeding or the next

6:51

hearing would potentially be December

6:53

2023

6:55

the trial against Trump could start

6:57

January of 2024 and the judge is saying

7:02

they want to move

7:03

judiciously

7:05

except they're still going to take a

7:07

nine months to move judiciously so it

7:10

seems a little ludicrous to me uh that

7:13

there was a lack of really evidence

7:15

provided here I think this really

7:17

actually does the opposite that the

7:18

prosecution wants to accomplish and just

7:21

reinvigorates Republicans to look at

7:23

this and go are you serious this is an

7:25

empty indictment this there's no new

7:27

information on this you're still not

7:28

providing evidence you're you're 3xing

7:32

you're basically taking the same

7:34

instance of hush money payments made to

7:38

potentially two individuals which may

7:40

not even be an election crime a federal

7:42

election commission's crime it may not

7:44

even be that it's been refused to be

7:46

prosecuted before on a federal level

7:48

level because to some extent some people

7:50

might argue that hey like paying

7:52

somebody to sign an NDA might be a fair

7:54

use of campaign money even if it was the

7:57

campaign that paid for it yet now 11

8:00

different invoices check stubs and and

8:02

Ledger entries are being used as a tool

8:04

uh to say oh there are 34 counts of

8:07

felonies against Trump it's all the same

8:10

instance the same circumstance

8:12

essentially maybe you could say two hush

8:14

money payments but again is that

8:16

necessarily wrong

8:18

and uh is it a felony or is this a as

8:22

we've said or or have heard a political

8:25

Witcher we'll see but that gives you the

8:28

actual full text of the indictment let's

8:31

keep listening over here information and

8:34

unlawful activity from American voters

8:37

before and after
