The Department of Justice filing on Michael Cohens guilty plea on bank fraud, tax fraud and campaign finance law violations expands on details surrounding hush money payments to two women who claim to have had affairs with President Trump.
The filing says Cohen coordinated with one or more members of the campaign, including through meetings and phone calls, about the fact, nature, and timing of the payments.
Cohen said Tuesday he was directed to make the payments to adult film actress Stormy Daniels and Playboy playmate Karen McDougal by the candidate, not mentioning Trump by name.
A $130,000 payment to Daniels, whose real name is Stephanie Clifford, was completed just weeks before the 2016 election. She is now suing Cohen and the president for defamation and to void the nondisclosure agreement.

And it isn't even Mueller. Love it.
