Republicans fear that Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., met with Michael Cohen before he appeared before the House Oversight Committee in efforts to coach a witness.
The California Democrat — and chairman of the House Intelligence Committee — traveled to New York to meet with President Trump’s ex-personal lawyer on at least four separate occasions and a total of 10 hours, Fox News reported.
Rep. Mike Turner, R-Ohio, sent a letter to Cohen’s team Wednesday requesting answers regarding the meetings.
Turner asked if Cohen had any contact "with Democratic Members or Democratic staff … prior to his appearances before House and Senate committees last week.â€
"These questions are important for the public to understand whether or not they were watching witness testimony, a public hearing, or well-rehearsed theater," Turner wrote.
