New York, October 26 (RHC)-- In New York City, Michael Cohen testified in Trump’s civil fraud trial that his former boss instructed him to inflate the value of his assets “based upon a number that [Trump] arbitrarily elected.” 

Michael Cohen, Trump’s one-time fixer and lawyer, said he would “reverse engineer” financial data to reach “whatever number [Trump] told us.”  Cohen took the stand as Trump watched on just feet away.

Meanwhile, ABC News is reporting former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows testified at least three times to a federal grand jury after he was given immunity in special counsel Jack Smith’s investigation into Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 election.  

Mark Meadows reportedly testified Trump was being “dishonest” with Americans and that Meadows did not believe the election fraud claims were true.
