Rep. Dan Goldman, Client of Judge Merchan's Daughter, Says He Prepped Michael Cohen Testimony

[BREITBART] Democrat Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY), client of Justice Juan Merchan’s daughter’s consulting firm, said Tuesday he prepared Michael Cohen for testimony.

Cohen, of course, testified this week in the ongoing trial of former President Donald Trump

...His ancestors didn't own any slaves...
, and many believed that Goldman’s comments indicated he was preparing Cohen for this testimony. But Goldman’s office now says that he was referring to previous testimony from Cohen in other matters and that Goldman has had nothing to do with Cohen in this ongoing case in New York.

"Congressman Goldman was referring to his February 2019 deposition of Michael Cohen, when the Congressman was Director of Investigations for the House Intelligence Committee overseeing an investigation into Donald Trump’s financial ties to Russia," Goldman’s communications director Madison Andrus told Breitbart News on Wednesday afternoon after the initial publication of this story. "The Congressman has had nothing to do with the Manhattan District Attorney’s prosecution of Donald Trump."

Goldman also paid more than $157,000 dollars to the political consulting firm of Merchan’s daughter, Loren Merchan, Federal Election Commission disbursement filings obtained by Breitbart News show:

#1 But Goldman’s office now says that he was referring to previous testimony from Cohen in other matters

Love how he comes up with this bullshit after his boy Cohen got his pants pulled down by Trump's lawyers.

#4 Appears Cohen thought he could ride Trump's coattails into politics. When the train left the station without him, he became angry and vindictive.

#5 If Trump is elected the narrative of all these people will be that "they really didn't mean any of it."

#10 ‘Don’t Tell Me To Calm Down!’: GOP Oversight Committee Hearing Turns Into Absolute Chaos

From the link:

The Oversight Committee held a vote to hold Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt of Congress for failing to hand over the audio recording of former special counsel Robert Hur’s interview with President Joe Biden. Nearly an hour into the hearing Republican House Oversight Chair James Comer could be heard asking if any other member would be seeking recognition, to which Republican Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene responded by asking if any Democrats on the committee were employing Judge Juan Merchan’s daughter.

Democratic Texas Rep. Jasmine Crockett and Occasional Cortex got their panties in a wad in response to Greene's remarks. Video at the link is precious.
