00:00President Trump's Congress massacred him.
00:27So, thank you very much.
00:37As you know, I've been saying for a long while, this is a rigged trial.
00:41It's coming from the White House.
00:43They have White House DOJ people in the trial, in the DA's office, representing the DA because
00:50he's probably not smart enough to represent himself as a guy who got elected using Trump
00:55and you're not supposed to do that, very much like Letitia James, all of it.
01:00New York is going down as a very corrupt place to do business, and I can tell you a lot of
01:05people are not going to be moving to New York.
01:08But this is a rigged case, and this is a case that was put in very strongly because of politics.
01:13So instead of being in Pennsylvania or Georgia or North Carolina or lots of other places
01:19today, I'm sitting in a courthouse all day long, this is going on for the week, and this
01:23will go on for another four or five weeks, and it's very unfair, and people know, and
01:29people know it's very unfair.
01:31The gag order has to come off.
01:34People are allowed to speak about me, and I have a gag order, just to show you how much
01:38more unfair it is.
01:40And the conflict has to end with the judge.
01:43The judge has a conflict, the worst I've ever seen, and it has to end with the judge.
01:49The gag order has to come off.
01:51I should be allowed to speak.
01:53Every time I come out to speak to you, I want to be open because we did absolutely nothing wrong.
01:58I showed you yesterday 30 stories, 32 stories of experts, legal experts, and I don't have
02:04one the other way.
02:05Thirty-two stories of legal experts saying very strongly there's no case, this occasion
02:10has been brought, Trump did nothing wrong.
02:13And they say it strongly, Trump did nothing wrong.
02:16So they ought to get rid of the conflict with the judge, because that's something that he
02:21cannot do anything about.
02:23It's wrong, it's wrong.
02:25And the second thing is I have to be released of a gag order.
02:28They've taken away my constitutional rights to speak, and that includes speaking to you.
02:34I have a lot to say to you, and I'm not allowed to say it.
02:37And I'm the only one.
02:38Everyone else can say whatever they want about me.
02:40They can say anything they want.
02:42They can continue to make up lies and everything else.
02:45They lie, they're real scum.
02:47But you know what, I'm not allowed to speak, and I want to be able to speak to the press
02:53and everybody else about it.
02:55So why am I gagged about telling the truth?
02:58I'm only telling the truth.
02:59They're not telling the truth.
03:01The judge has to take off his gag order.
03:03It's very, very unfair that my constitutional rights have been taken away.
03:09Thank you very much.
03:10Are you going to keep posting about Michael Cohen?
03:12Are you going to talk about Michael Cohen?
