Cohen to testify before Senate Intel on Tuesday

Michael Cohen is scheduled to appear before the Senate Intelligence Committee for closed-door testimony Tuesday, a source familiar with the plans confirmed, teeing up a busy three days on Capitol Hill for President Trump’s former personal attorney.

Cohen is also slated to testify publicly before the House Oversight and Reform Committee next Wednesday, an appearance that promises high drama as lawmakers question the one-time Trump confidante about money paid to women who alleged affairs with Trump before the election, the president’s business dealings and other matters.

The former Trump lawyer will also appear before the House Intelligence Committee in a closed setting the following day as part of the panel’s revived and expanded investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election.

Cohen was spotted on Capitol Hill on Thursday ahead of his testimony, though it was not immediately clear why he was there.
