Donald Trump Keeps Tweeting About a 'Brand New Manuscript' by Michael Cohen That Doesn't Seem to Exist

Donald Trump Keeps Tweeting About a 'Brand New Manuscript' by Michael Cohen That Doesn't Seem to Exist

Yeah, that's not a thing.

The explosive testimony of President Donald Trump's former attorney and self-proclaimed fixer Michael Cohen before the House Oversight Committee saw a wealth of accusations arise against Trump.

The once staunch ally of the President submitted corroborating documents to accusations that Trump knew beforehand of illegal hush money payments made on his behalf. Cohen also gave insight into Trump's moral character, describing him as a "racist, conman and cheat."


Republican members of Congress leapt to attack Cohen's credibility in an effort to defend Trump. Cohen had previously lied to Congress to protect the President and will soon begin a three-year prison sentence for that and other crimes committed on Trump's behalf.

Now, the President is taking to Twitter, to tell Americans that Michael Cohen lied to Congress again, citing Cohen's alleged unpublished manuscript that he says contradicts his claims before the committee.

But there doesn't appear to be any evidence of the existence of such a manuscript.

While it is true that Cohen was courting a Trump-positive book deal in an effort to offset the negative portrayal of Trump brought by the "tell-all" Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House, plans for the book crumbled after the FBI raided Cohen's office, securing documents that would eventually lead him to turn on the President.

Trump claims Cohen's manuscript of the book is "just released," however no one can seem to find it. Not even Cohen's would-be publisher, who said it "never saw a manuscript." Cohen's lawyer Lanny Davis added that the plans never passed a preliminary proposal.

This is not a good look for Trump.

Many remain unconvinced.

For some, the manuscript wouldn't do much in clearing Trump's name. Cohen routinely lied and threatened to protect the public's perception of Trump.

Trump's claims have done nothing to offset the massive public backlash against him.

Similarly, Cohen's testimony did little to convince the President's supporters that Trump had committed any wrongdoing.

More of the President's associates are expected to testify as a result of Cohen's testimony.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
