CNN: Cohen claims Trump knew in advance of 2016 Trump Tower meeting
Michael Cohen, President Donald Trump’s former personal attorney, claims that then-candidate Trump knew in advance about the June 2016 meeting in Trump Tower in which Russians were expected to offer his campaign dirt on Hillary Clinton, sources with knowledge tell CNN. Cohen is willing to make that assertion to special counsel Robert Mueller, the sources said.
This could be huge. Multiple news outlets have now confirmed this story.
