Mr. tough guy has freaked out so bad, he's not sleeping or eating. He's lost over 20 pounds and looks like shit.

Hey Michael, tell the nice FBI men all they want to know and maybe you'll be able to see your kids again.

Oh, and tell them who the thug was that threatened Stormy Daniels and her infant in the gym parking lot while you're at it.

CNN is going to discuss Cohen next up!

“Don't fool yourself," Andrea wrote to her sister, according to the texts. "That money we have is blood money."

"You know he has killed people in Ukraine? Knowingly," she continued, according to the reviewed texts. "As a tactic to outrage the world and get focus on Ukraine. Remember when there were all those deaths taking place. A while back. About a year ago. Revolts and what not. Do you know whose strategy that was to cause that, to send those people out and get them slaughtered."

But it's reassuring to know that I wasn't the only one to see it. I've been sick, but I don't think I've lost my mind.

ABC News accidentally convicted an indicted former top Trump aide of crimes he was never charged with in an onscreen graphic that aired Wednesday.

It appeared during the network’s special coverage of President Trump’s announcement that he would reverse course on his administration’s “zero tolerance” border policy, which led to thousands of children being taken from their parents and ignited a firestorm of condemnation.

“Manafort pleads guilty to 5 charges of manslaughter,” the graphic read.
