President Trump’s former personal attorney Michael Cohen pleaded guilty in Manhattan federal court Thursday to making false statements to Congress in 2017 about efforts to build a Trump Tower in Moscow during the 2016 presidential campaign.
The Wall Street Journal reports that the false statements include remarks about the timing of the Moscow project and about discussions with other individuals at the Trump Organization about the project.
Mr. Cohen pleaded guilty to a single charge brought by special counsel Robert Mueller’s office.
