This now via CNN, something to keep an eye on:

  • Michael Cohen, President Donald Trump's former personal attorney, claims that then-candidate Trump knew in advance about the June 2016 meeting in Trump Tower in which Russians were expected to offer his campaign dirt on Hillary Clinton, sources with knowledge tell CNN
  • Cohen is willing to make that assertion to special counsel Robert Mueller, the sources said
  • Cohen's claim would contradict repeated denials by Trump … that the President knew nothing about the Trump Tower meeting until he was approached about it by The New York Times in July 2017.
