Amid talk that former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen again lied to Congress, Cohen’s lawyer sent a letter to the head of the House Oversight Committee clarifying Cohen’s testimony that he never sought a pardon from the president.
Cohen declared under oath on Feb. 27 that “I have never asked for, nor would I accept, a pardon from President Trump.”
“Bad lawyer and fraudster Michael Cohen said under sworn testimony that he never asked for a Pardon,” Trump tweeted. “His lawyers totally contradicted him. He lied! Additionally, he directly asked me for a pardon. I said NO. He lied again!” “With that in mind, as a past member of the joint defense team, Mr. Cohen asked his then attorney to discuss with another Trump attorney possible pardon options consistent with the president’s prior public declarations,” Monico said.Giuliani said last Thursday he was contacted in May or June about a possible pardon for Cohen. He said his answer was that the president “is not going to consider or give any pardons now.
