Michael Cohen confronts woman ripping down signs of Israeli hostages in NYC

Former Trump attorney Michael Cohen confronted a woman on the Upper East Side Friday tearing down fliers of missing Israeli hostages — precipitating a tense confrontation.

“What’s wrong with you?” Cohen snapped at the well-dressed middle-aged woman, wearing sunglasses and a beige trench coat and holding a tote bag, shows video obtained by The Post.

“This is illegal. Turn it on yourself, freak. You should be in jail,” the woman shot back.

She also appeared to confuse him with hedge fund billionaire and Mets owner Steve Cohen.

When Michael Cohen demanded the woman’s name, she said it was “Steve Cohen and I should be back in jail because I’m a piece of s—t.”

When reached by The Post, Michael Cohen said he wanted to get the woman’s name and hold her accountable.

“While walking on Park Avenue at the corner of 61st street, I was shocked to see this racist, antisemitic curmudgeon tearing the face off the missing-child poster and laughing about it. There is no place for people like her in civilized society,” he said.

Cohen also posted an image of the woman to X.

The one-time Trump fixer, who stared down the ex-president court last month during Trump’s civil fraud trial, is known to be considering a primary challenge against Rep. Jerry Nadler.

This week, two 18-year-olds — Charlotte Wimer and Gray Segal — were arrested for tearing down flyers on private property.
