HOUSE OF REPS/MICHAEL COHEN/SENATE/TRUMP AS PRESIDENT/TRUMP BUSINESS: “U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday [11-29-18] denied pursuing a Trump Organization real estate project in Moscow, which his former lawyer Michael Cohen said they had continued until June 2016, during the presidential campaign. Cohen pleaded guilty on Thursday to lying to Congress about the project, putting fresh pressure on the president. At issue is a proposal to build a skyscraper bearing Trump’s name in Moscow. Cohen told both the Senate and House intelligence panels the real estate project had ended before the political primary season began, according to a court document. Trump told reporters outside the White House he had decided not to build the building in Moscow, although he did not specify when he decided against pursuing the project.”
