Weisselberg wanted to generate $130K through golf memberships, bar mitzvah at Trump properties: Cohen
By Kyle Schnitzer
Michael Cohen testified that Allen Weisselberg, the former chief financial officer of the Trump Organization, talked about possibly generating $130,000 through golf memberships or holding a wedding at one of Trump’s facilities.
The conversation happened when Cohen was scrambling to find a way to fund the LLC account to pay off Daniels, when Weiselberg suggested that he should see if someone wanted to buy a membership at one of Trump’s golf clubs.
Other options included finding someone to host a wedding or bar mitzvah, Cohen said.
He testified that it “wasn’t a possibility because each of those entities have a Trump name” attached to it and he wanted to keep it away from Donald Trump’s name.

Cohen used Yom Kippur as excuse to delay Stormy Daniels hush money payment
By Ben Kochman
Michael Cohen testified that Donald Trump told him to delay paying Stormy Daniels the $130,000 until after the election.
As part of this plan, Cohen emailed Daniels' lawyer Keith Davidson on Oct. 12, 2016, that he couldn't talk on the Jewish holiday of Yom Kippur -- but it was just part of their ruse to stiff Daniels, Cohen testified.
Trump believed that if they could merely push off the payment until after the election, "it would not matter," Cohen told jurors.
Yom Kippur is the most sacred day on the Jewish calendar, and is intended to be used for atonement and repentance.

Cohen said he had to change LLC name because it had same name as friend's company
By Kyle Schnitzer
Michael Cohen admitted he had to change the name of the LLC for hush money payments because it had the same name as his friend's company.
“I realized during the process but I couldn’t realize why we called it Resolution Consultants," Cohen testified.
"It’s actually the name of a company of someone that I know who is out of state, and I don’t think he’d appreciate using the same name as his company."
Cohen said he changed the name to "Essential Consultants LLC."
Cohen then testified he lied on paperwork filing out the form to say it was a management consulting company because he wasn't sure if it would go through knowing it was money for a porn star.
"I'm not sure if they would've opened it if it stated 'to pay off an adult film star for a nondisclosure agreement,'" Cohen said.
