Cohen was in ‘close and regular contact’ with Trump White House staff, legal team while crafting misstatement to Congress
By Morgan Gstalter - 12/01/18 08:11 AM EST

President Trump’s former personal lawyer Michael Cohen was in “close and regular contact” with White House staff and Trump’s legal team while he was crafting misstatements to Congress, according to a new court filing late Friday night.

Cohen pleaded guilty Tuesday to making misstatements before congressional intelligence committees while testifying about his contacts with Russians during the 2016 presidential campaign.

In the court filing in the Southern District of New York, Cohen’s lawyers wrote that the false statements “sprung regrettably from Michael’s effort, as a loyal ally and then-champion” to help push forward Trump’s political messaging.

Cohen followed the political messaging that Trump, identified as Client-1 in the documents, his staff and supporters “repeatedly and forcefully broadcast.”
