it's incredibly important to link up the money trail, because michael cohen will need buttressing. he is going to be attacked like no witness in the case. he's been consistent about the story he's telling, but he will be attacked in terms of all of this untruthfulness, his participation in the crime. you can't prove a crime by just having that nuns embrace, you need participation. you need the transaction of the movement of the money around it, so i believe the government is doing exactly what they should be doing, probably putting him in the middle of the case. you want to set the stage about how important this crime is to prove, through david pecker, and put these custodial witnesses around again , and put: in the middle of the case. you do not want to the jurors, the last thing they hear, to be a bloody cross-examination, which is coming. >> i understand this case a lot better, thanks to the interpretation you both have provided. we appreciate having you on. thank you. >>> coming up, it's hard to overstate how bizarre and unprecedented yesterday supreme court oral arguments were
