Trump ex-lawyer Cohen delays testimony citing ‘threats’ by president
Donald Trump’s former lawyer Michael Cohen has postponed testimony in Congress citing threats from Trump and the president’s current attorney, Rudy Giuliani, Cohen’s advocate says.
Cohen’s appearance before the House Oversight Committee, scheduled for February 7, is being pushed off “due to ongoing threats against his family from President Trump and Mr. Giuliani, as recently as this weekend,” Lanny Davis says in statement.
“This is a time where Mr. Cohen had to put his family and their safety first,” Davis adds.
