Michael Cohen Testifies Before House Oversight Committee

Michael Cohen, President Trump’s former lawyer, testified before the House Oversight and Reform Committee about his experiences working for the president, before and after the 2016 presidential campaign. He offered his perspective on the way the Trump Organization operated, and detailed specific actions he took and words he said at the direction of his former boss. He said he had broken the law and had lied many times, including in previous congressional testimony, at the direction of the president, and presented documents to the committee related to his testimony which he said proved he was telling the truth in this hearing.
