Michael Cohen is scheduled to begin a three-year prison sentence on May 6th. He really doesn’t want to. On Thursday, lawyers for President Trump’s former lawyer and fixer sent a letter to congressional Democrats explaining that Cohen has conveniently discovered a “trove” of new documents that his team believes “have significant value to the various congressional oversight and investigation committees.”

President Donald Trump’s longtime personal attorney/fixer Michael Cohen has been sentenced to 36 months in federal prison on 9 counts — six of them having nothing to do with Trump. Even so, as he pleaded for leniency, Cohen took huge swings at Potus.
On the charge of lying to Congress about Trump’s Moscow project, Cohen has been sentenced to two months, to be served concurrently. He will begin his jail time on March 6.
Arguing for leniency in U.S. District Courthouse in Manhattan, Cohen this morning said his biggest crime was “blind loyalty” to Trump.
“Recently the President tweeted a statement calling me weak and it was correct, but for a much different reason than he was implying, ” Cohen said in an emotional courtroom scene. “It was because, time and again, I felt it was my duty to cover up his dirty deeds.”

Michael Cohen, President Donald Trump’s former lawyer and fixer, was sentenced to 36 months in prison for campaign finance violations on Wednesday morning. Cohen admitted to orchestrating hush money payments to two women who had affairs with his former boss. The money, which Cohen told prosecutors was delivered at Trump’s direction, changed hands in the months leading up to the 2016 election as part of an effort to shield then-candidate Trump from negative publicity.
