There's been a lot of talk about this being a witch hunt.

I worked in the Watergate prosecutor's office.

I was probably the only Republican at the time.

I'd actually voted for Richard Nixon twice.

Until this last time with President Trump,

I had voted for every Republican candidate for president,

from Barry Goldwater forward.

What I said in Watergate, when people asked

how a Republican could be involved

in pursuing Richard Nixon, I said there's no Republican way

to violate or investigate the law.

There's no Democratic way to violate

or investigate violations of law.

There's only equal justice under law.

I think the same thing applies today

to the investigations relating to Trump and his administration.

And I believe that the professional prosecutors

who are involved in these investigations

are honorable and objective,

and not involved on a partisan witch hunt.

One of the most significant issues

that needs to be addressed,

especially in light of the Cohen guilty plea,

is the extent to which the President should be insulated

from any accountability in the normal judicial process,

from responsibility for what he has done

while he's still in office.

The issue is, is he entitled to be immune from indictment

so long as he can stay in office,

which might include reelection.

The Justice Department has said that it takes the position

that a president may not be indicted while in office.

I believe Bob Mueller has indicated

that he would follow that policy.

I think that policy is wrong and wrong-headed.

I think it's not either constitutionally

compelled or politically justifiable.

And I think that needs to be a subject

that should be reexamined by scholars and prosecutors.

One of my problems with the notion

that a president is immune from indictment

while he's in office,

is that it sounds more like a banana republic system

than a system that the framers of our Constitution had in mind.

In Latin American countries,

legislators as well as their presidents

are immune from prosecution,

no matter who corrupt, as long as they can keep in office.

I don't think that's what the framers had in mind here.

Washington University 2018 White Coat Ceremony - Duration: 2:01.

Zachery Hong from Chapel Hill, North Carolina.

Luxi Qiao from Tallahassee, Florida.

Alden D'Souza from Anaheim, California.

Once I put it on it was,

I think, this transformative concept of, like:

Oh, I'm here to become a physician.

This is what we're starting. It's really starting now.

I can go into the hospital, I can shadow people.

Emily Anne Johnson

from Grosse Pointe Park, Michigan.

I think there is a kind of a different feeling

that comes with the white coat.

I don't even know that I was expecting that,

you know, it's a piece of clothing.

But it really - I've never had a piece of clothing

really mean so much.

And I think that the oath building process

actually helped me feel that change.

We were thinking about using the word

devote instead of dedicate.

I will devote myself to a lifetime...

It helped me just realize my obligation

to the people I care for,

both within the walls of the hospital

and outside of the hospital.

I think if we flip that, it would be a lot stronger:

And that I will endeavor to build trust

and value the trust that they place...

We talked about, you know,

every different part of what it means to be a doctor,

whether it be caring for your patients,

whether it be how you approach the profession,

yourself. And also how you interact

with the rest of the healthcare team

and the changing healthcare world.

I pledge that I will devote myself

to a lifetime of learning, teaching,

and advancing the art and science of medicine.

For me it's it's a responsibility,

you know, getting this coat.

It's almost, it's a privilege, you know,

and I want to make sure that I live up to it,

that I can show that I have what it takes

to be a successful doctor,

to be my best over the next four years and beyond.

This oath I make freely and upon my honor.

[Applause]

Washington - Das Weiße Haus hat sich nach dem Geständnis von Michael Cohen entschieden gegen die Dar - Duration: 4:05.

 Das Weiße Haus hat sich nach dem Geständnis von Michael Cohen entschieden gegen die Darstellung gewehrt, Präsident Donald Trump habe sich etwas zu Schulden kommen lassen

 Trump habe nichts Falsches getan, es gebe keine Anklage gegen ihn, sagte seine Sprecherin Sarah Sanders am Mittwoch

Nur weil Cohen einen Deal mit der Staatsanwaltschaft eingegangen sei, bedeute das nicht, dass sich dadurch ein Verdacht gegen Trump ergebe

 Trumps langjähriger Anwalt und Vertrauter hatte den Präsidenten am Dienstag vor einem Gericht in New York schwer belastet

Seinem Geständnis zufolge soll Trump an Schweigegeldzahlungen an Frauen beteiligt gewesen sein

Das Geld soll gezahlt worden sein, um Schaden vom Wahlkampf des damaligen Präsidentschaftskandidaten abzuwenden

Es wäre damit ein Wahlkampfbeitrag, der strengen gesetzlichen Vorschriften unterliegt

  Trump bestritt am Mittwoch, dass es sich dabei um eine Straftat handelt. «Michael Cohen bekennt sich in zwei Fällen der Verletzung von Vorschriften der Wahlkampffinanzierung für schuldig, die keine Straftaten sind», schrieb Trump auf Twitter

Er bezichtigte ihn indirekt zudem der Lüge. In einem Interviewauszug des Senders Fox News erklärte Trump, er habe von den Zahlungen an die Frauen erst «im Nachhinein» erfahren

 Das Geld soll während des Wahlkampfs 2016 an die Ex-Pornodarstellerin Stormy Daniels und das Ex-Playmate Karen McDougal geflossen sein und war Cohen später von Trump erstattet worden

Selbst wenn Cohen mit den Zahlungen Straftaten begangen hat, ist strittig, ob auch Trumps mögliche Beihilfe dazu einen Verstoß gegen Gesetze zur Wahlkampffinanzierung darstellt

Für Kandidaten gelten unter Umständen andere Regelungen als für deren Personal. Mit seiner Aussage vor Gericht weckte Cohen unterdessen das Interesse einer anderen Behörde

Das Steuer- und Finanzministerium des Bundesstaats New York forderte im Zusammenhang mit einer Untersuchung gegen die Trump-Stiftung Informationen von dem Anwalt ein

Das Ministerium habe angesichts seiner Aussagen vom Dienstag eine Anordnung an Cohen geschickt, hieß es in der Stellungnahme eines Sprechers, aus der der Sender CNN und andere US-Medien zitierten
