00:00 Well, I'm honored to be here with my colleagues from the House Freedom Caucus, where we watched

00:06 Michael Cohen get dog walked through the series of lies he has told.

00:12 There is literally no branch of government that Michael Cohen has not lied to.

00:17 He lied to investigators.

00:18 He lied to the judge who sentenced him.

00:20 He lied to the United States Congress and he committed these lies for his own benefit.

00:26 And while we're talking about what we saw in that courtroom going on for people's own

00:30 benefit, we would be remiss if we did not mention this corrupt judge.

00:36 This judge whose own family is making six figures off of Democrat politics that continues

00:42 to gaslight the country that there's some sort of crime committed by President Trump.

00:48 This is a made up crime.

00:49 No other American in the country would be charged with this type of crime.

00:54 It's like the Mr. Potato Head doll of crimes, where they had to stick together a bunch of

00:58 things that did not belong together.

01:01 Observing the jury, I could see that there was a great appreciation for the liar that

01:06 Michael Cohen was, and we are not getting a fair shake in front of this judge.

01:11 The prosecutors don't even have to state the basis for their objections.

01:15 He's agreeing with the prosecutors without even hearing argument on these objections.

01:20 And there should be evidence getting in about the depth and breadth of Michael Cohen's lies

01:25 that we're not seeing entered into it.

01:27 And so we're here voluntarily supporting our friend, President Trump, the leader of our

01:32 movement, the leader of our party, and soon again, the leader of this great country.

01:37 And I want to hand it over to the leader of the House Freedom Caucus, my friend, Bob Good.
