Michael Cohen, the longtime lawyer for President Donald Trump who pled guilty to lying to Congress, will testify before the House Committee on Oversight and Reform today. Here’s everything you need to know to watch a live stream of the Cohen testimony for free.
When is Michael Cohen’s testimony?
The hearing before the House Committee on Oversight and Reform is scheduled to begin at 10am ET on Feb. 27.
This public hearing is just one of several testimonies Cohen will give to Congress. The former Trump lawyer spoke with the Senate Intelligence Committee on Tuesday and will speak with the House Intelligence Committee on Thursday. Those hearings will not be public.
What will Michael Cohen’s testimony include?
Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-Md.), the chair of the committee, shared a memo that outlined the scope of the hearing last week. It is expected to touch on a number of topics surrounding the president, including his taxes and his hush money payments to adult film stars, as well as other issues.
On Tuesday, the Wall Street Journal reported that Cohen is expected to accuse Trump of committing criminal conduct.
Cohen’s testimony is perhaps the most anticipated event in the Russia collusion probe since former FBI Director James Comey spoke before Congress in summer 2017.
