Michael Cohen's public hearing on Wednesday could become a three-ring spectacle and will be the first big televised show for an oversight committee that has vowed to spend the next two years on intense investigations of Trump.

The building was never built.The challenge for Cummings and the other members of the oversight committee may be in navigating which subject matters fall on which side of the line they have drawn with Justice Department special counsel Robert Mueller.Cohen, meanwhile, may offer implicit clues about which areas are connected with alleged collusion in the questions that he agrees to answer and those to which he demurs.

Ranking member Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, has vowed that Republicans will ask what they want to ask."I have serious process concerns with this hearing," Jordan said."I will not stand by quietly while an admitted liar comes before the committee. Our members intend to question Mr. Cohen about the crimes he pleaded guilty to, other criminal activity he participated in but refused to disclose, his international financial dealings, and a long list of other probative activities.

'Republicans want to damage Cohen's credibility so much that no one can believe anything he says.' Right...because Cohen has every incentive by this point to stack more perjury charges on top of his perjury charges. I guess he just really wants the longest possible prison term?

Media is salivating about hearing a confessed liar trash President. No interest

Normally this would be big news, but with this administration, we're almost jaded to this type of thing..

😂😂😂 the retractions begin. Thought this was bringing down the house guys? 1/1024th accurate journalism. Seriously watch ScottAdamsSays or JackPosobiec , your accuracy will improve.

Another partisan piece. It’s past time to revoke government funding.

Hillary's RUSSIAN COLLUSION detailed. Hillary's PAY-TO-PLAY schemes started when she was the Obama’s Secretary of State & she was BRIBED by RUSSIANS to give them favors when she would become President.

The big week is in Saigon. Dummies

I guess I would have to ask...WHERE'S THE RUSSIAN COLLUSION & WHERE'S THE BROKEN LAWS since Collusion is not against the law but...CUMMINGS won't allow that because he knows there was never any collusion.

Michael Cohen needs to work on a screenplay in prison.

It will be a sleepless night for Trump.

Almost nothing

You’ll update this to reflect mattgaetz public threat of this federal witness, won’t you?

Happy Birthday!

Ho hum

Threatened by the GOP the night before.
