One asked if there’s a love child. Another asked if the president abuses drugs. Another still suggested the entire Trump family could be compromised by the Russians.
For some Democrats on the House Oversight Committee, Wednesday’s hearing with ex-Trump lawyer Michael Cohen turned into a fishing expedition of sorts as they floated sensational rumors and unproven conspiracy theories about the president — live on national television.
Some questions seemed to be rooted in unsubstantiated rumor. Others just seemed hypothetical.
“Do you have any knowledge of President Trump abusing any controlled substances?” Illinois Rep. Raja Krishnamoorthi asked Cohen of Trump, a teetotaler.
“I’m not aware of that, no,” Cohen replied.
Krishnamoorthi seemed to float the possibility Trump could have paid for abortions in his past, without directly making the claim.
“Do you have any knowledge of President Trump arranging any health care procedures for any women not part of his family?” he asked.
“I’m not aware of that, no,” Cohen said.
Krishnamoorthi wasn’t the only one to raise salacious questions about Trump.
“Is there a love child?” California Democratic Rep. Jackie Speier asked.
Cohen said he was unaware of one.
Speier asked Cohen about a rumor that there’s an elevator tape of Trump once hitting his wife, Melania Trump – a rumor Cohen rejected.
“I don’t believe Mr. Trump ever struck Ms. Trump, ever,” Cohen said.

Florida Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, the former chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee, floated the possibility that Trump’s entire family could be compromised by the Russians.
“Is it possible the whole family is conflicted or compromised with a foreign adversary in the months before the election?” Wasserman Schultz asked.
“Yes,” Cohen replied, though he said he lacks direct evidence of collusion by the Trump campaign with Russia.
Others asked about details from the infamous, unverified dossier about Trump’s relationship with Russia. Maryland Rep. Jamie Raskin asked, “Are you aware of any videotapes that may be the subject of extortion or blackmail?”
“I have no reason to believe that that tape exists,” Cohen replied.
Some Republicans used the hearing to try to clarify persistent rumors. The dossier, which was used by the FBI and DOJ to obtain surveillance warrants in the Russia case, included a claim that Cohen went to Prague in 2016 to meet with Russians during the campaign.
“I’ve never been to Prague,” Cohen said, in response to a question from Republican South Carolina Rep. Ralph Norman.
Some asked Cohen to describe any possible crimes the president may have committed.
MICHAEL COHEN WON’T RULE OUT RUNNING FOR POLITICAL OFFICE IN NEW YORK
“Is there any other wrongdoing or illegal act that you are aware of regarding Donald Trump that we haven’t yet discussed today?” Krishnamoorthi asked.
“Yes and again those are part of the investigation currently being looked at by the Southern District of New York,” Cohen said.
Republicans, meanwhile, repeatedly blasted the hearing itself. Texas Rep. Chip Roy called the hearing a “charade” and an “embarrassment for our country.”
“This is not what the American people sent us here to do,” Roy said.

Does anyone else think that the Cohen hearing impacted Trump’s negotiations with North Korea? How could an utter despot like
Kim take seriously a president who can’t even muzzle his own people? Satan can go after Trump, but he is always out to make one sin have larger and larger consequences in the world. I pray that God gives us another chance for peace on the Korean Peninsula. I pray that voters take a look at how their representatives are refusing to use their time and power to improve our country. I pray that God lift up Trump and his family as they cope with the constant attacks. Please have the attackers be destroyed with their own weapons; hit them with a political boomerang. Amen.
Reveal the wickedness of your adversaries and embolden your witnesses for your name’s sake. These hearings were a travesty of smear, innuendo and gossip during a time of needed national unity with a nuclear summit in Vietnam. The disunity and political hackery were disgraceful. Thank you for the fact that hope springs eternal because of your wisdom, guidance and power. Your agenda will be established in spite of opposition.
Father in Heaven, uproot all lies and false accusations, rumor and gossip, fear mongering, shameful abuse of elected power and responsibility to the people of America who elected this man, Donald Trump to be The President of the United States. Rebuke the devourer that has entered into the hearts of men and women who are driven by fear of losing power, fear of the people who vote their faith, distain for their freedom to have the victory rightfully won. May those who are digging pits, laying traps, spreading distrust for our Constitutional way of governing be caught in those same traps they’ve spread out for others. May the secret agendas of those mocking Democracy and our freedom of speech and thought, indoctrinating our children in ways that lead them away from God, and even murdering babies before and after birth, be brought to justice themselves and exposed in the light of Truth…..God’s truth. In God we must trust, for He alone knows the wickedness and intents of the heart. May God protect the President and our God given liberties….have mercy on the United States of America and the world.
Lord God, you love truth, justice, and mercy. May these hearings expose those virtues and expose the lies, dishonesty and manipulation. Enhance the voices of those who value you and truth and silence those that do not. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
