Former attorney and fixer for former President Donald Trump is admitting he stole from the Trump Organization.

During cross-examination in Trump’s hush money trial in New York City,  Todd Blanche, an attorney for the former president, asked Cohen, “You did steal from the Trump Organization, correct?”

“Yes, sir,” the former fixer answered.

As CNBC notes, “Cohen pocketed $30,000 of the $50,000 he received from the Trump Organization and then gave about $20,00 to the tech firm Red Finch, which previously worked for the Trump Organization.”

“Cohen said that although Red Finch’s owner would have preferred getting the full $50,000 he was owed, he was ‘placated for the time being,'” it added.

The outlet points out, “Cohen is a key witness against Trump, having previously testified he paid porn star Stormy Daniels $130,000 before the 2016 presidential election to keep her quiet about allegedly having sex with Trump once a decade earlier.”
