Michael Cohen Files Implicate Trump, Hope Hicks and David Pecker

MANHATTAN (CN) When the first batch of Michael Cohen search-warrant materials became public, the files disclosed evidence that President Trumps former fixer secretly worked for a foreign government.
The new materials released on Thursday proved no less significant, detailing the actions Cohen took after the release of the Access Hollywood video threatened to derail Trumps campaign. Within days of the release, according to the warrants, Cohen exchanged a series of calls, text messages and emails with Trump; his then-press secretary Hope Hicks; the National Enquirers David Pecker; and Stormy Daniels lawyer Keith Davidson.

Its more painful to hear these kinds of things than not. Like the Mueller report with its non-conclusions after over a year of obvious obstruction, publicly recorded for all to hear. No one significant pays for it.
