‘The Five’ reacts to judge fining Trump for violating gag order

IT'S 5:00 IN NEW YORK CITY, AND

THIS IS "THE FIVE."

♪ ♪

TOTAL MAYHEM BREAKING OUT AT

COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY, A MOB OF

ANTI-ISRAEL STUDENTS BARRICADING

THEMSELVES INSIDE A BUILDING ON

CAMPUS AND HUNKERING DOWN FOR

THE LONG HAUL.

WE HAVE MUCH MORE ON THAT TO

COME IN THIS JOB AT FIRST FORMER

PRESIDENT TRUMP SOUNDING OFF

AFTER ANOTHER HUGE DAY AND IS,

IN A HUSH MONEY TRIAL.

WATCH.

WATCH.

>> THIS GAG ORDER IS NOT ONLY

UNIQUE, IT IS TOTALLY

UNCONSTITUTIONAL.

I'M THE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE FOR

PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.

I RECEIVED THIS HONOR IN RECORD

TIME.

NOBODY HAS EVER DONE IT FASTER.

IT'S NEVER HAPPENED.

NOBODY HAS EVER GOT THE NUMBERS

THAT WE GOT.

I AM SITTING IN A COURTHOUSE ALL

DAY LONG, LISTENING TO THIS

STUFF.

IT'S A BIDEN TRIAL, AND I NEVER

SAW SO MANY PROSECUTORS, THEY

ARE ALL SITTING IN THE ROOM AND

NOTHING, OVER ABSOLUTELY

NOTHING, THERE IS NO CRIME.

THERE IS NO ANYTHING HERE.

>> Dana: AND THIS MORNING THE

JUDGE RULING THAT TRUMP BE HELD

IN CONTEMPT OF COURT AND MUST

PAY $9,000 FOR VIOLATING THE

GAG ORDER.

GAG ORDER.

HE EVEN THREATENED TRUMP WITH

JAIL TIME IF HE VIOLATES IT

AGAIN.

TRUMP DID GET ONE SMALL WIN.

THE JUDGE IS GOING TO ALLOW HIM

TO ATTEND HIS SON, BARON,

VALUATION CEREMONY ON BAY

17TH.

TODAY, MORE WITNESSES TAKING THE

STAND INCLUDING THE LAWYER

REPRESENTING TWO WOMEN ALLEGEDLY

FROM TRUMP PAST, BUT IT IS THE

PERSON WAS NOT TAKEN THE STAND

YET THAT SOME SAY IS THREATENINE

CREDIBILITY OF ALVIN BRAGG'S

CASE.

STAR WITNESS MICHAEL COHEN

ACCUSED OF CASHING IN ON THE

TRIAL WITH A NIGHTLY

LIVE STREAMS ON TIKTOK.

ABC NEWS DOING A REVIEW OF THOSE

STREAMS AND THEY SAY THAT IT

APPEARS COHEN IS EARNING A

FINANCIAL BENEFIT THROUGH

VIEWERS DONATION SPIRIT >>

MICHAEL COHEN HERE WITH ANOTHER

"MICHAEL COHEN REACTS."

10:00 AGAIN.

SAME BAT TIME, SAME BAT CHANNEL.

WHEN I WAS TESTIFYING BEFORE THE

HOUSE OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE, I

TURNED AROUND AND I SAID THAT

DONALD TRUMP HAS SHOWN ACTS OF

GENEROSITY, BUT HE IS NOT A

GENEROUS PERSON.

>> Dana: MICHAEL COHEN RAILING

AGAINST THE REPORT ON TWITTER

CALLING IT A NONSTORY AND SHODDY

TABLOID HYPE.

LET'S START THERE.

IT IS WONDERFUL TO WELCOME YOU

TO "THE FIVE," PROFESSOR TURLEY.

CAN WE START WITH MICHAEL COHEN

MAKING MONEY ON TIKTOK AFTER THE

SHOW, COMMENTING, WHEN NOBODY

ELSE IS ALLOWED TO COMMENT?

>> Jonathan: MY ASSUMPTION IS

THERE NOT GOING TO HAVE THE

SPECIAL EFFECTS WHEN HE

TESTIFIES.

WHO KNOWS?

LOOKED, NOBODY IS SHOCKED THAT

MICHAEL COHEN SEEMS TO HAVE GONE

BACK ON HIS WORD THAT WAS ONLY A

FEW DAYS AGO.

HE WAS JUST RECENTLY CRITICIZED

BY A JUDGE AS A SERIAL PERJURER

WHO IS GAMING THE SYSTEM.

SO IT'S FASCINATING ABOUT THIS

TRIAL, SETTING THE TABLE FOR

THIS GUY AS THEIR STAR WITNESS.

AND I WOULD THINK ANY LAWYER --

WHEN HE TAKES THE OATH IN THAT

COURTROOM, I THINK PEOPLE WILL

BE LOOKING UP TO MAKE SURE

LIGHTNING DOESN'T STRIKE IN THE

COURTHOUSE.

>> Dana: JUDGE, WHAT DO YOU

THINK OF THAT PIECE, AND THEN I

WOULD LOVE TO GET YOUR TAKE ON

THE GAG ORDER, AS WELL.

>> Judge Jeanine: THE

>> Judge Jeanine: THE

FUNDAMENTAL ISSUE HERE, A FORMER

PRESIDENT AND RUNNING FOR

PRESIDENT RIGHT NOW IS BEING

GAGGED BY ONE OF THE WITNESSES

WAS ALLOWED TO TRASH HIM

EXTENSIVELY EVERY DAY, MORE THAN

EVERY DAY.

IT IS EMINENTLY UNFAIR.

THE AMERICAN PEOPLE KNOW IT IS

UNFAIR.

WHEN MICHAEL COHEN -- I'M GOING

TO GO ON TIKTOK AND MAKE A LOT

OF CASH.

I SAID THIS, PROFESSOR, LAST

WEEK.

WEEK.

HAVE A COPY OF THE MARCH 26TH

ORDER AND IT SAYS TRUMP IS NOT

ALLOWED TO MAKE OR DIRECT OTHERS

TO MAKE PUBLIC STATEMENTS.

THE REPOSTING OF TWEETS IS NOT

MAKING OR DIRECTING OTHERS TO

MAKE STATEMENTS, AND TO ME IT IS

INDICATIVE OF THE INCOMPETENCE

OF THIS JUDGE, THE FACT THAT

THIS IS APPEALED, IF THERE IS A

CONVICTION, WHEN IT IS

APPEALED, THIS WILL BE PART OF

THE REVERSAL, AND I THINK TODAY,

YOU'VE GOT COLANGELO FROM THE

DEFERMENT OF JUSTICE WHO CAME

OUT AND SAID, YOU KNOW WHAT, ON

THE VIOLATION OF THE GAG ORDER,

WE WANT TO BE ABLE TO

CROSS-EXAMINE DONALD TRUMP.

WHAT THAT IS TELLING YOU IS

THERE GOING TO TAKE EVERYTHING

AND SEEING WHAT THEY CAN THROW

AT HIM AND SEE WHAT STICKS,

WHETHER IT IS DEFAMATION,

E. JEAN CARROLL, CIVIL LAWSUITS,

IMPEACHMENTS, AND HE VIOLATED

THE GAG ORDER.

AND THIS IS THE DEPARTMENT OF

JUSTICE, WHO IS PRETTY MUCH

GOING TO CROSS-EXAMINE

DONALD TRUMP.

>> Dana: DO YOU THINK HE

SHOULD NOT TESTIFY, THEN, IN

THIS CASE?

>> Judge Jeanine: I DON'T

THINK HE HAS ANYTHING TO GAIN

BECAUSE OF YOU LOOK AT THIS,

THIS BANKER, ALL HE DID WAS HE

DEALT WITH MICHAEL COHEN, TO

ESTABLISH AN LLC, AND THEN THE

PRESIDENT'S ATTORNEYS GET UP AND

THEY SAY DID YOU EVER HAVE A

CONVERSATION WITH DONALD TRUMP?

NO, IT'S GOT NOTHING TO DO WITH

TRUMP.

>> Dana: A JUDGE, JESSE, USE

THE WORD INCARCATORY, YOU COULD

END UP GOING TO JAIL FOR THINGS.

>> Jesse: I DID NOT KNOW ABOUT

THAT.

TRUMP'S INVOLVEMENT IN THE

CONSPIRACY, THE CONSPIRACY IS ON

THE LEFT.

YOU HAVE A DEMOCRAT D.A.

COORDINATING WITH A DEMOCRAT I

CAN DONATE A JUDGE TO SUPPRESS

THE FREE SPEECH OF THE

REPUBLICAN NOMINEE FOR

PRESIDENT.

AND SO WHAT THEY HAVE DONE IS

THEY HAVE TAKEN A MAJOR ISSUE

OFF THE TABLE.

WEAPONIZATION OF GOVERNMENT,

RENEGADE PROSECUTORS,  

CORRUPTION.

THAT IS A MAJOR ISSUE FOR VOTERS

IN THE FALL AND BECAUSE THEY ARE

CHARGING TRUMP, HE CAN'T TALK

ABOUT A MAJOR ISSUE FACING

VOTERS?

VOTERS CAN HEAR ABOUT THE RIGGED

SYSTEM, THE CORRUPT PROSECUTION,

A DEMOCRAT D.A. WHO HAS INSERTED

HIMSELF INTO A GENERAL ELECTION?

AND THEN GAGS THE GUY WHO IS

PROSECUTING FROM TALKING ABOUT

IT?

THAT'S INSANE.

SO ALL THESE THINGS ARE ON

TRUTH SOCIAL, THEY ARE LIKE

PRESS RELEASES.

A JUDGE IS SAYING WE ARE GOING

TO NOW CONTROL THE TYPES OF

PRESS RELEASES THAT COME FROM A

PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN.

AND IF IT ATTACKS ME OR IT

ATTACKS THE D.A., YOU ARE NOT

ALLOWED TO DO THAT.

WELL, WHAT DID HE POST?

ONE TIME HE JUST CALLED COHEN A

LIAR.

COHEN IS A CONVICTED LIAR.

AND THEN HE CALLED A PORN STAR

EXTORTIONIST A SLEAZEBAG.

THAT IS NOT A LIVE.

THAT IS NOT A THREAT.

THAT IS JUST AN OBSERVATION, AND

HE SHOULD BE ABLE TO BE ABLE TO

MAKE OBSERVATIONS AT TRIAL.

THE OTHER THING, HE RETWEETED

SOMETHING I SAID.

WHAT I WAS SAYING WAS THERE ARE

PEOPLE WHO ARE LYING ON JUROR

QUESTIONNAIRES.

ABOUT NEGATIVE THINGS THEY

POSTED ABOUT THE DEFENDANT.

AND THEN IT TURNS OUT, OH, YOU

KNOW WHAT, I DID SAY HE BELONGS

IN PRISON.

WHOOPS.

AND SO HE CAN'T TALK ABOUT

ANYTHING LIKE THAT?

THAT MEANS RACHEL MADDOW COULD

BE SEATED AND DONALD TRUMP

COULDN'T SAY MADDOW IS ON MY

JERRY AND SHE IS STARING AT ME,

HE CAN'T SAY THAT OR THEY ARE

GOING TO THROW ME IN JAIL.

THAT'S NOT RIGHT.

THE AMERICAN PEOPLE KNOW IT IS

NOT RIGHT.

THIS WHOLE CHARADE HAS HAPPENED,

HIS POLL NUMBERS HAVE POPPED.

>> Dana: LET ME GIVE YOU THE

FLOOR.

FLOOR.

>> Greg: WHAT DO I DO WITH IT?

>> Dana: DON'T DO THAT.

>> Greg: TRUMP HAS GOT TO BE

REALLY, REALLY PISSED.

HE NOW HAS TO GO TO BARRON'S

GRADUATION.

NOW HE HAS TO SIT THROUGH THREE

HOURS OF TEDIUM.

YOU WANT TO DO THAT, WATCH

"FOX & FRIENDS."

I KID, I LOVE THAT.

MICHAEL COHEN, WE HAVE TO REMIND

EVERYONE, MICHAEL COHEN WAS

TRUMP'S LAWYER.

TRUMP'S LAWYER.

IF SOMEONE BROKE THE LAW OVER

THE LEGAL ADVICE GIVEN TO YOU,

WOULDN'T THAT BE ON THE LAWYER

WHO GAVE YOU THE ADVICE?

YOU HAVE TO ENTER THE LEGAL

PAYMENT THIS WAY, BECAUSE THERE

IS NO OTHER WAY TO DO IT, HOW IN

THE RIGHT MIND CAN THE LAWYER

TESTIFY AGAINST ME AS THE CHIEF

WITNESS.

THIS IS LAWFARE ON BOOTS, AND IT

IS ANOTHER EXAMPLE, YOU LOOK AT

CHRISTINA -- WHAT IS HER NAME,

CHRISTINA BOTTOM, A LAWYER FOR

SPEED, SHE COULD FACE A TOTAL OF

LIFE IN PRISON OVER THIS

OTHER STUFF, THEY ARE

HUNTING EVERYBODY ON TRUMP SO HE

IS ISOLATED IN THE MEDIA HAS

ALWAYS WARNED US THAT TRUMP IS

AN AUTHORITARIAN AND HIS

SUPPORTERS ARE LIKE THIS BIG MOB

IN RED HATS.

IF YOU WANT TO LOSE POWER AND

GET HUNTED, SUPPORT TRUMP.

IN TODAY'S CULTURE, IF YOU WANT

A TARGET ON YOUR BACK, YOU WANT

YOUR POWER TAKEN AWAY, IF YOU

WANT YOUR JOB THREATENS, IF YOU

WANT TO BE THREATENED WITH JAIL,

YOU SUPPORT TRUMP.

HOWEVER, IF YOU WANT TO REJECT

TRUMP, SAY HE IS EVIL, YOU RISE,

YOU RISE IN YOUR CAREER AND

EVERYTHING.

IF YOU WEAR A RED HAT YOU WILL

BE SHAMED AND LAUGHED AT, SO THE

IDEA THAT IF TRUMP GETS INTO

OFFICE, WE ARE GOING TO HAVE

THIS AUTHORITARIAN WORLD, WE ARE

KIND OF SEEING THAT RIGHT NOW

BUT IT IS AGAINST TRUMP AND HIS

SUPPORTERS.

IN OTHER CASES COMING UP,

EVERYBODY IS STUPID, THE ONE IN

GEORGIA IS BASED ON ONE WORD.

"FIND."

THE WORD "FIND" THAT TRUMP SAID

WHEN HE SAID "FIND VOTES"

DOESN'T MEAN LOOK FOR, IT MEANS

CREATE.

LET'S APPLY THAT TO REAL LIFE.

LET'S SAY, JESSE, YOU ASK YOUR

SPOUSE, CAN YOU FIND ME THE

SCISSORS?

AND FOUR HOURS LATER SHE RETURNS

WITH AN ARTS AND CRAFT PROJECT

SHE MADE OF WOODED TWINE OF

SCISSORS.

YOU WOULD THINK SHE IS CRAZY.

YOU WOULD GO, LOOK, DEAR, THE

SCISSORS ARE UNDER THE PILLOW

WHERE I LEFT THEM, AND SHE WOULD

GO, OKAY.

FINDING ASSUMES SOMETHING IS

ALREADY THERE.

YOU KNOW, DOESN'T MEAN CREATE.

BUT THE DEMS ARE ALWAYS ABOUT

MIND-READING.

IF YOU TAKE AWAY MIND READING,

THEY HAVE NOTHING ELSE, SO IF

YOU DON'T WANT GIRLS COMPETING

AGAINST MEN IN SPORTS, THEY

MIGHT READ AND SAY YOU ARE A

TRANSPHOBE.

IF YOU ARE AGAINST DEI THEY

MIGHT READ AND SAY YOU ARE

RACIST.

TRUMP SAYS GO AND FIND ME THESE

VOTES, THEY THINK ALL HE IS

SAYING MAKE IT UP.

>> Judge Jeanine: OKAY, I HAVE

TO ADD SOMETHING.

YOU JUST HAD A VERY IMPORTANT

THING.

YOU SAID THE TRUTH IS THAT

DONALD TRUMP IS DOING THINGS ON

ADVICE OF COUNSEL, OKAY?

DO YOU KNOW WHAT THE JUDGE

GAGGED DONALD TRUMP FROM SAYING

GAGGED DONALD TRUMP FROM SAYING

IN COURT?

HE IS NOT ALLOWED TO SAY ON THE

ADVICE OF COUNSEL.

THIS JUDGE HAS LITERALLY PULLED

FROM DONALD TRUMP THE ABILITY TO

USE A DEFENSE ESSENTIAL TO HIS

CASE.

>> Jonathan: HE IS ALSO

GUARANTEED TRUMP CAN'T TAKE THE

STAND, ALONG THE SCOPE TO BE

THIS BROAD, I MEAN, FOR TRUMP TO

TAKE THE STAND IS LIKE JUMPING

INTO A WOOD CHIPPER AND HOPING

YOU COME OUT ON THE OTHER SIDE.

I MEAN, IT IS NOT A GOOD

SITUATION.

BUT BY THE WAY, THIS JUDGE SAID,

ON THE ORDER COME ON THE

CONTEMPT ORDER, THAT THIS IS ALL

A MATTER OF FIRST IMPRESSIONS, L

AUTHORITY.

THEN HE WENT AHEAD AND SANCTION

HIM.

YOU WOULD THINK IF THE JUDGE

THOUGHT IT WAS -- HE WOULD SAY,

LET ME CLARIFY, HERE IS THE

RULES GOING FORWARD.

INSTEAD, YOU KNOW WHAT, WE'VE

GOT TO DEVELOP THIS AS WE GO.

HERE IS YOUR SHANKS AND SPIRITS

BEFORE THIS IS NOT SPIRITS

>> Judge Jeanine: THIS IS

CRAZY.

>> Jesse: HOW DID YO
