Michael Cohen testified about Donald Trump’s life of crime three times last week to three different congressional committees. Only one of those three hearings was in public, and thus far it’s had the most immediate impact on observers. But it now looks like one of Cohen’s private hearings will end up being more impactful before long, and in fact something big is planned for next week.

The Democratic Party-controlled House Intelligence Committee questioned Michael Cohen in private on Thursday. That kind of setting allows for a more free discussion of evidence that’s a part of ongoing investigations and criminal cases. It also apparently led to something big and unexpected. When Cohen finished his testimony, he told reporters that he’ll be returning this Wednesday to provide more testimony to the House Intel Committee. At the time this sounded like perhaps they had simply run out of time and needed another day.

Then Congressman Eric Swalwell, who sits on the House Intel Committee, appeared on MSNBC on Friday night and revealed the real reason Michael Cohen is being brought back for another round. Cohen said something during his testimony which he hadn’t previously mentioned, and it turned out to be far more relevant than he thought it was. Swalwell said that he and his colleagues were “at the edge of our seats” while Cohen was revealing this.

So now we know that House Democrats are bringing Michael Cohen back next week because they have something big up their sleeve. This hearing will presumably once again be behind closed doors, and we don’t know when the Democrats will reveal what it is. But if you want a clue, watch for who and what the House Intel Committee subpoenas next. They’re onto something big, and they’re clearly looking to move quickly on it.

It's been a tough week, a tough month, a tough year. For all of us. But the fight goes on. Because we know how important this is. Because we care. Because we're the ones who fight. It's you and me. It has been for a decade. And I'm never backing down. But Palmer Report does have operating expenses. And in this uncertain time, I truly need your help. For that reason I've launched the Palmer Report 2025 Operating Expenses Fund. If we can fully fund this, it'll bridge the gap and ensure that Palmer Report can keep fighting now and forever.
