Opening Arguments

OA257.5 Michael Cohen Testifies, Part 2


Listen Later

Today's episode continues our breakdown of ex-Trump fixer Michael Cohen's testimony before the House of Representatives and all the Yodel Mountain implications that stem from it that we started in Episode 257.  What's next?  Listen and find out!

We begin where we left off -- with Michael Cohen.  Find out how Cohen's testimony (and documents) implicate our favorite legal genius, Stormy Daniels!

After that, it's time to check in on Roger Stone's former flunky, Andrew Miller, and his quixotic quest to undo the Mueller investigation.  That effort was just slapped down by the Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, and we've got the full opinion covered for you.

Then, it's time to check in on an odd development in the sentencing saga of Paul Manafort.  What does the government's latest (redacted) filing portend?  We're not entirely sure... but we want you to know what we know.

And then -- after all that! -- we  end with a brand new Thomas Takes the Bar Exam Question #116 regarding a rather odd traffic accident.  As always, remember to follow our Twitter feed (@Openargs) and like our Facebook Page so that you too can play along with #TTTBE!
