Reuters reports:
Donald Trump’s former fixer Michael Cohen testified on Monday that he stole money from Trump’s company, an admission that could chip away at his credibility as a star witness at the former U.S. president’s hush money trial.
Questioned by Trump’s lawyer Todd Blanche, Cohen acknowledged stealing from the Trump Organization by including a reimbursement to a technology company in his bonus package and pocketing most of the money.

The “Star witness” strikes again. LOL
Michael Cohen just admitted to stealing tens of thousands of dollars from the Trump Organization. So he’s a convicted liar and now also a thief. I’ll have a lot to say about this tonight on Triggered on Rumble @ 6 pm!pic.twitter.com/CHhetD49RQ— Donald Trump Jr. (@DonaldJTrumpJr) May 20, 2024
