House Oversight Chairman Elijah Cummings on why he wanted Trump's former lawyer Michael Cohen to testify: 'We are in search of the truth.' Follow live updates
House Oversight Committee Chairman Elijah Cummings just called today's hearing featuring testimony from Michael Cohen to order.
Federal prosecutors have previously explained the scheme in court filings, saying that Cohen falsely submitted invoices to the Trump Organization, at the direction of “executives” of the company, during the year 2017, for a total of $420,000. The reimbursements were to be paid in monthly installments of $35,000, according to prosecutors.
At today's hearing, Cohen is expected to say that one of the checks he received to reimburse him was from Trump’s personal bank account and was signed by Trump. Cohen is also expected to testify that other checks he received were signed by Donald Trump Jr. and Trump Organization Chief Financial Officer Allen Weisselberg, who received immunity in the investigation of Cohen. A spokesperson for the Trump Organization declined to comment on Cohen’s expected testimony.Michael Cohen arrives in committee chamber
