On Wednesday, Michael Cohen, President Donald Trump’s former personal lawyer, is set to publicly testify before Congress about his involvement in and knowledge of hush money payments made during the 2016 election. Cohen also testified behind closed doors before Congress on Tuesday, and will do so again Thursday.
On Tuesday, CBS News reported that Cohen will reveal documents that indicate tax fraud and accuse the president of “criminal conduct and racism.” Cohen also plans to testify that Trump knew of the hacked DNC emails before WikiLeaks released them, according to his prepared testimony.
