Live: Trump's Lawyer Testifies Before Congress

by Nomad


Donald Trump's former lawyer, Michael Cohen, will testify before the House Oversight Committee. As Vox notes:
While questions specifically about Russia will be off the table due to special counsel Robert Mueller’s continuing investigation, Cohen will be questioned about Trump’s business practices and hush money payments to women who alleged affairs with Trump during the 2016 campaign.
It's likely to be very interesting- and possibly explosive- so I decided to provide a live feed of the proceedings. It is scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. ET on Wednesday.


With a hat tip to Kathleen, I have also included the written testimony Cohen submitted earlier to Congress.

Yesterday, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders told reporters that Cohen shouldn’t be trusted given that he has pleaded guilty to lying to Congress.

In an exceptional(but unintentional) irony, Sanders added:
“It’s laughable that anyone would take a convicted liar like Cohen at his word, and pathetic to see him given yet another opportunity to spread his lies.”
Here is an incomplete list of the lies that Huckabee has told since becoming a spokesperson for the Trump administration.
