House lawmakers clash over GOP allegations Dems coached Cohen

Lawmakers are clashing over GOP allegations that Democrats met extensively with Michael Cohen before his scheduled testimonies, an early sign of partisan divides growing deeper amid the House investigations into the Trump administration.

Republicans claim Democrats knew ahead of time what the president’s former personal lawyer was planning to testify to on Capitol Hill, voicing concern of cooperation — and even coaching — between Cohen and the committee majorities.

Democrats have strongly rejected these claims, stating that meeting in advance with potential witnesses is standard practice for committees conducting investigations.

One such clash took place over the weekend when conservative Rep. Mark Meadows (R-N.C.) accused House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) of meeting with Cohen for 10 hours ahead of his planned testimony.
