I'm Ben Myselis from the Midas Touch Network, the Trump organizations, former controller Jeff
McConney took the stand again previously was cross examine now under direct examination
in the New York Attorney General Civil Fraud trial and broke down and started
crying hysterically while he was testifying.
He was called by Trump's lawyers.
He was being asked questions about the various proceedings that he was involved in and he
broke down, started crying, basically saying, I can't take this anymore.
And he said, I just want to relax and just stop being accused and brought into all of these
cases and being told that I'm misrepresenting assets for the company that I was working
for.
I just wanted to stop.
Then he had to be handed a tissue by the ballot. I mean, we're talking about
Balling he was crying hysterically on the stand and by the way This is someone who was given an immunity deal in the Manhattan District Attorney criminal case where the Trump organization was
convicted of over a dozen felony counts for its tax fraud
Criminal conduct for the various felonies.
In that matter, he was called on cross examination.
Remember a few weeks back,
one of the first witnesses in the civil case,
now called on the stand by Trump's lawyers.
And that's when he broke down crying.
You know, I was talking to Michael Cohen about this
on the political beat down podcast that I do in Cohenven's like that's what Donald Trump does to people who
Works for me breaks him down someone like Jeff McConney was there
Basically doing what he was told to do he was basically, you know the village idiot working for Donald Trump
Go do do do do while he was
Inputting
Fraudulent numbers and so now while goes, I was just doing my job,
while the job that you were doing was fraudulent.
That's why the organization was convicted
on multiple felony counts.
In the other case, you were given immunity.
That's why your directory port Allen Wieselberg,
the former chief financial officer,
pled guilty to multiple felony
counts and serve time in Rikers Island.
And that's why you are in that seat.
One of the key moments of McConee's testimony, he listed all of the various proceedings
that he's been involved in and that he's been testifying him.
One of the things he let slip, and this was kind of a big one.
He talked about getting a subpoena
from the Southern District of New York,
the federal prosecutors,
and that raised a lot of eyebrows,
which case was he talking about?
Not the Manhattan District Attorney case,
not the Washington D.C. Special Counsel Jack Smith case,
not the Southern District of Florida case,
not the Georgia Criminal Rico case,
not the New York Attorney General civil case, a federal case being investigated by SD and
I SD and why is the Southern District of New York federal prosecutors now investigating
Donald Trump for other criminal conduct or for other conduct or the Trump organization.
That is something worth noting as well. And then after Jeff McHoney was, you know,
the direct examination presentation by McHoney and by Don Jr. and by some of the other people
who the Trump organization would call up, they called the insurance expert up this past week.
You know, basically they're going through PowerPoint presentations and painting a very
rosy picture, which on cross examination is just so easy to basically break. Watch out,
the New York Attorney General broke each witness. You've got Don Jr. Okay, Don Jr. Did
you ever review any of the Statement of Financial Conditions? No. You were the leader of the organization. Yes. You didn't think that you needed to review any of the statement of financial conditions? No. And you were the leader of the organization. Yes.
And you didn't think that you needed to review any of the statement of financial conditions, which is the heart of this case. No.
So you have no clue what's happened at all regarding the finances of the Trump organization. No, why?
I just let the professionals do it. Okay. Next up, the Trump organization wants to call an insurance expert
and say, look, the reason that Zurich had to do the, was doing this deal is because they
wanted to do the deal with Trump and they were so, they so needed Trump's business that
badly. And it was like, what are you talking about? I mean, Zurich, what billion dollar
insurance company couldn't live without Donald Trump. That's what you're saying.
And by the way, were you aware that the insurance, that the person who worked at Zurich,
who testified, said that the material misrepresentations that were made would have altered the
equation about whether to provide insurance at the amount that was given. Oh, so you're not aware
of that. Okay. All right, Jeff McConney. Let's talk about where the amount that was given. Oh, so you're not aware of that. Okay. All right,
Jeff McConney. Let's talk about where the numbers you were given actually accurate numbers
when you actually look back at them. No. And were they based on assumptions that actually
were false? Well, we didn't know they were false at the time. Well, you were aware that
you were creating at some point you needed to create accurate assumptions.
And you couldn't just come up with random numbers.
Well, that's, that's, that's true.
Well, and you do realize, for example, that Mar-a-Lago's actually was a commercial property,
not a residential property, were you aware of that?
Were you aware that Donald Trump's triplex was actually 10,000 square feet, not 30,000
square feet, were you aware that some of these buildings were rent controlled, but they
were basically represented to lenders as not having rent control and that the square
footage was calculated at the highest possible valuation with no rent control at all and
full occupancy when everybody knew
that wasn't the case and that was used to inflate the valuations.
Whoa, I don't know.
Where you go through each property and McConney just couldn't handle it.
And again, just crying and crying on this.

This is what Donald Trump does to people who work for him.
Okay, whether it's a mcconny, whether it's a Weissselberg, whether before that,
look, my co-host on political beatdown, whether it is Michael Cohen, and you want to look at the
version 2.0 or 4.0 or 6.0 of this, I mean, look no further than his current crew. Look at Alina
Haba, who goes up there, look at Christopher Kaiss, who goes up there. Look at Christopher Kaiss who goes up there. Look at Joe Takapina who goes up there.
How you can look at the track record
of how Donald Trump cannibalizes the professionals
who works for him.
Choose him up, spits him out,
uses them as actual pawns.
The physical manifestation of that is having Jeff McConney
on the stand crying. And this is someone, McConney on the stand crying.
This is someone, McConney, six, three, six, four, he's Donald Trump's height, Donald Trump's
size, not 250 pounds, talking about a large man crying hysterically on the stand, bail
off giving him tissues, bawling his brains out.
That's what Donald Trump does.
Everything Donald Trump touches.
This is what happens to.
And look, Donald Trump's been on a tear this evening.
He's been posting and posting and posting on his social media platform.
Folks, he is spiraling out of control as accountability is coming his way.
So he can say all of the things that he wants.
He can say, Mar-a-Lago, this, you can say, you know, my properties are the biggest
valuation in the world. He can attack judge and gore on. He can attack judge and gore on's
law clerk, but the facts aren't on his side. And if the facts were on his side,
he wouldn't be attacking the law clerk for the judge.
He wouldn't be attacking the judge.
He wouldn't be attacking the prosecutor.
You know what he would do?
He'd go into court and he would say, actually, let's go through the financials.
Don Jr. would be saying, yes, as a owner of this organization, as a co-trustee, yes, as a owner of this organization, as a co trustee, yes, I looked through all
of the documentation. Here is how I did my due diligence. Eric Trump would say, I take
my due diligence seriously. For all the mega explainers out there who want to explain
to me that the valuation for fair market values, 5,000% more than the tax appraisal when the entity itself
is devaluing the property by encumbering the property with historical easements and other
types of incumbrances to try to devalue the property to pay less property taxes for all of those
people who want to mag explain it to me. Tell me about the CEO of what's supposed to be
an important corporation that doesn't review their financials. Explain it to me. Explain
to me. I've never heard of that. CEOs, their office is next to the CFO, next to the COO.
They all communicate.
They don't go, oh, I don't know what it is.
I don't know what it is.
And they don't have their former controller take the stand and start crying as brains out.
