Michael Cohen testifies to House Oversight Committee

ABC News – Michael Cohen, President Donald Trump’s former lawyer and fixer, began testifying publicly for the first time Wednesday about his experience in the Trump orbit before the House Oversight Committee, painting a harsh portrait of the president as an unscrupulous businessman who may have committed a crime while in office.

Cohen also repeated what he said in a copy of his prepared remarks obtained by ABC News, claiming that Trump, as a candidate, knew his longtime confidant Roger Stone was talking with Julian Assange about WikiLeaks’ revealing emails hacked from the Democratic National Committee.

In a statement to ABC News on Wednesday morning, Stone denied Cohen’s allegation.
