Michael Cohen’s public testimony in front of the House Oversight Committee Wednesday was as combative as expected, with plenty of congressional grandstanding and partisan fireworks.

Cohen Is Assisting With Other Unspecified Probes With Trump Links

Perhaps the biggest bombshell is what Cohen couldn’t discuss Wednesday. Asked specifically about his communications with Trump after an FBI raid on his home, and more broadly about other Trump misconduct the committee hadn’t discussed yet, Cohen in both instances said that he couldn’t answer those questions because of ongoing investigations in the Southern District in New York.

Later on the hearing, he said again that he was assisting prosecutors on those questions.

“There are ongoing investigations currently being conducted that have nothing to do with this committee or Congress that I am assisting in,” Cohen said.
