Moscow Business Plan Options

There are mainly two types of business plans that are written in Moscow: capital raising business plans and management or managerial business plans.

Raise Capital with a Business Plan

Most business plans are written with eye towards raising money for their venture. In a business plan that is written for investment capital, the structure of the business plans and therefore the most important point of the document will be the value-added benefit. Information on the products, services and the market will play central roles in the development of the plan, as well as various payout or exit strategies for the investors. Most business plans will focus on either selling equity or debt to investors.

  • Equity : In an equity business plan the company seeking funding will sell an ownership stake. If the company is a corporation, they will sell shares or common stock or a variation of them. If the company is a LLC or a Limited Company (which is popular worldwide) interest or units in the company would be offered. Both a form of ownership, just with a different name for each entity. In additional, there are other sweeteners one can add into any business plan offering, including warrants or preferred shares or preferred units or convertible debt.
  • Debt : in a debt offering business plan the company will be issuing some type of bond or a note to investors. A bond or note differ only in terms of the length of each security, which bonds being considered a longer maturity date than a note. There are also convertible debt securities that would convert the notes/bonds to equity at a certain fixed point in time. The business plan for bonds would detail the terms, such as the maturity date, interest rate and other vital information.

Managerial Guidance Business Plan

  • No Capital Raising : In a managerial or a management business plan, the focus is not on raising money but what strategy a company should employ. While most companies that write business plans do so to raise capital, there are some that simply want to get a second opinion or an outside view of their business. They ask us to write them a business plan for growth opportunities, not to raise money. Said another way, the management of the company wants to see our view and take on their business and what we would do to expand their company.
  • Recommendations : A business plan used to simply strategically plan one’s next move is referred to as managerial guidance business plan document. No capital is being raised initially, although sometimes we may conclude that capital should be raised for the company to penetrate or open new markets or opportunities. In the course of research, we may conclude that, in fact, the company should conduct an offering and raise money. We will recommend the amount to raise based on the company’s expansion needs and the company valuation.

  • Prospectus.com’s team consists of industry expert business plan writers. Our Level I Start-up Business Plan can be used for companies raising initial seed funding and getting off the ground. The dollar amount being raised is not of paramount importance.

Trump trial recap: Michael Cohen says he was 'knee deep' in 'cult of Donald Trump'

NEW YORK − Michael Cohen faced stern questioning from Donald Trump's defense team Tuesday in the former president's hush money trial. This was the defense's first crack at Cohen after the disbarred lawyer told jurors Monday that he was following Trump's orders when he bought porn star Stormy Daniels' silence about an alleged affair with Trump.

But Trump attorney Todd Blanche avoided addressing the specifics of the payoff at the center of the case, while working to show that Cohen, Trump's onetime attorney and fixer, may have had motive to lie about his former boss. At one point he asked if Cohen had been "obsessed" with Trump, whom he once idolized.

Trump is charged with falsifying business records to cover up the true purpose of his reimbursements to Cohen − an effort save his candidacy from damaging disclosures in the waning weeks of the 2016 presidential election.

Cohen bolstered the prosecution's case Tuesday, testifying that he made the payment to Daniels "to ensure that the story would not come out, would not affect Mr. Trump's chances of becoming president of the United States."

That testimony showed why Cohen is a star witness for the prosecution, but Cohen's cross-examination could become more combative on Thursday, given Trump and Cohen's history of hurling insults at one another.

Prep for the polls: See who is running for president and compare where they stand on key issues in our Voter Guide

Here are highlights from Tuesday's proceedings:

Trump calls cross-examination of Cohen ‘a very good day’

Former President Donald Trump said that, while he was prevented from talking about his former lawyer, Michael Cohen, because he’s a witness in the money trial, his team’s cross-examination is going well.

“Today we had a very good day,” Trump said as he left the Manhattan courthouse. “The trial is going very well. It’s the fourth week,” he added later.

−Bart Jansen

Cross-examination of Cohen so far largely avoids Trump charges

Blanche's cross-examination of Cohen this afternoon largely focused on questions about Cohen's hostility toward Trump and his possible motivation to help prosecutors. Blanche did ask Cohen one general question about his memory of calls with Trump in 2016, appearing to express skepticism of Cohen's earlier testimony about hush money and reimbursements. 

However, Blanche largely avoided getting into details about the 2016 and 2017 activity that's at the heart of the business records case.

– Aysha Bagchi

Tuesday trial proceedings end

Judge Juan Merchan called an end to proceedings for today. Michael Cohen is set to retake the witness stand for more cross-examination on Thursday, after an off-day in the trial on Wednesday.

Trump lawyer indicates cross-examination of Michael Cohen could end Thursday

Judge Merchan excused the jury for the rest of the day. He then called up the lawyers for a private conversation at his bench, and afterwards asked Trump lawyer Todd Blanche in open court how much more cross-examination of Cohen remained. Blanche indicated he expects to be done by the end of Thursday. 

As usual, there are no trial proceedings this Wednesday.

Cohen defends his reputation as 'fixer'

Blanche asked Michael Cohen a question that appeared to be a direct reference to former Trump aide Hope Hicks' earlier testimony . Hicks said Cohen used to call himself "a fixer" or "Mr. Fix-it," but she used to say that Cohen only fixed what he had first broken.

Blanche didn't mention that testimony, but asked Cohen whether – when he calls himself a fixer – those are things that he broke. "No, sir," Cohen said.

Cohen says he hoped Manhattan DA would help reduce his federal criminal sentence

Trump lawyer Todd Blanche has been asking Cohen a series of questions about Cohen's federal prison sentence. The questions have gone on for a while and they've been a little plodding.

For example, Blanche asked Cohen about getting work credits and education credits from the Bureau of Prisons. Cohen said he put in an application based on those credits to help him with the home confinement portion of his sentence. Cohen remains under supervised release following his 2018 conviction on charges of lying to Congress, tax evasion, and violating federal election laws through payoffs to porn star Stormy Daniels and former Playboy model Karen McDougal.

Blanche appears to be wanting to show Cohen cooperated with the Manhattan district attorney's office during his time in prison to is motivated to get his sentence reduced . Cohen confirmed he wanted the DA to announce he was providing assistance in order to help with his efforts to ease his sentence.

Jurors highly attentive as Cohen is cross-examined

The jurors are paying close attention during Michael Cohen's testimony, and that's consistent with how they've appeared throughout this trial. Right now, you can see many of their heads turning towards Trump lawyer Todd Blanche as he asks a question, and shifting to Cohen as he answers.

Jurors share some small screens in front of their chairs in the jury box, where they are able to have a close look at evidence presented in the trial.

What is the courtroom like?

Cohen was just brought back into the courtroom after a short afternoon break. Every time he enters or exits, he is guided to walk just in front of the first row of benches behind Trump's defense table. That means walking just in front of Trump's supporters – for instance, Eric Trump today. Cohen usually doesn't look at them as he is escorted past and then through a side door in the courtroom.

Cohen has already testified to having a long history not just with Trump, but at least to some extent with the Trump family. Eric Trump turned his head to the left and smirked yesterday when Cohen said he was disappointed his name wasn't included among those considered to become Trump's White House chief of staff, even though he also didn't believe the role was right for him or that he "was even competent."

More: Would cameras in the courtroom change Donald Trump's New York hush money trial?

For much of today, Donald Trump has appeared to be facing forward, instead of being directed to his right, where Cohen is seated in the witness box. However, Trump appears to be watching Cohen at least some of the time as he testifies this afternoon. I don't have my binoculars today and haven't been able to see Trump's eyes on screens in the courtroom. Yesterday morning, his eyes were closed for extended periods multiple times .

Before the lunch break today, as Cohen described turning on Trump and pleading guilty to tax- and election-related crimes, the mood in the room seemed sombre, as if taking in Cohen's description of the full arc of his life shifting dramatically.

Blanche's cross-examination of Cohen is less sombre, but doesn't yet feel as aggressive as many might have expected. Blanche's questions about Cohen's previous admiration for Trump seemed to create some connection between the witness and defendant, despite their current hostility.

'I was knee deep into the cult of Donald Trump'

Trump lawyer Todd Blanche asked Cohen to confirm he hadn't been lying when he said nice things about Trump during the 2016 presidential campaign.

"At that time, I was knee deep into the cult of Donald Trump, yes," Cohen said.

Cohen on Trump: 'I admired him tremendously'

Trump lawyer Todd Blanch asked Cohen to confirm he enjoyed working with Trump. "Very much so," Cohen replied.

Blanche asked about Cohen's feelings on Trump's 1987 book, "Trump: The Art of the Deal." Cohen characterized it as an "excellent book." When Blanche asked Cohen to confirm he thought it was a "masterpiece," Cohen said: "Yes, masterpiece."

Cohen also said he saw himself in Trump, adding the adjective "innovative."

Blanche asked Cohen to confirm he had been obsessed with Trump.

"I don't know if I would characterize the word 'obsessed.' I admired him tremendously," Cohen said.

Cohen says he changed his views about Trump around summer of 2018

Cohen testified he changed his views about Trump around the summer of 2018. "It was around the time that I had gone on George Stephanopoulos," Cohen said.

Cohen tweeted a photo of himself in early July of 2018 with ABC News correspondent George Stephanopoulos, saying: "My silence is broken!"

In a summary of a conversation the pair had, Stephanopoulos said Cohen indicated he was willing to cooperate with federal prosecutors investigating him for possible election and financial crimes.

Cohen pleaded guilty to several federal crimes later in 2018.

"I would like to see accountability': Cohen under cross-examination

Trump lawyer Todd Blanche asked Cohen why he is on TikTok regularly, and Cohen responded that it's to build an audience, create community, and "to really vent" because he is having a difficult time sleeping.

In response to a follow-up question from Blanche, Cohen confirmed another of the reasons is to make money.

Cohen said he's on TikTok six days a week, and also estimated he mentions Trump on his TikTok sessions six days a week.

Blanche asked Cohen about saying on his podcast that he wants Trump to be convicted. "Sounds like something I would say," Cohen responded.

"I would like to see accountability. It's not for me – it's for the jury and this court," Cohen added.

Trump trial timeline: What does Donald Trump's courtroom schedule look like?

Trump’s hush money trial is expected to last six-to-eight weeks, according to a media advisory provided by New York’s Unified Court System before the trial started on April 15. 

The courtroom normally opens at 9:30 a.m. eastern time, and the court takes off on Wednesdays. Judge Juan Merchan previously ruled that the court will break on May 17 so Trump can attend his son Barron Trump's high school graduation, and on May 24 due to a juror scheduling conflict.

Cohen insists he remembers his 2016 conversations with Trump

Blanche questioned Cohen's ability to recall very specific calls with Trump in 2016 while seeming less confident about requests from prosecutors not to comment about the case. Cohen did acknowledge prosecutors have raised the issue of his public comments, although he also invoked his First Amendment free speech rights.

But on his memory of calls with Trump, Cohen indeed said it was very good: "I remember all the conversations with President Trump, yes."

Cohen confirms saying Trump belongs in 'cage, like an animal'

Blanche asked Cohen to confirm this trial is personally important to him, and Cohen said it was.

Blanche then asked Cohen if he had said on April 23, during the trial, that Trump belongs in a "cage, like an animal." Cohen confirmed saying that.

Cohen asked about following trial coverage

Blanche asked Cohen about commenting on TikTok during the trial, when prosecution witness David Pecker was still on the stand, that from everything he had heard that day Pecker was corroborating what Cohen has been saying for six years.

Cohen confirmed he had done that, saying someone called him and told him that.

Blanche then asked if Cohen has been following what is happening in the courtroom on CNN and MSNBC. Cohen said he has watched those channels but "not religiously in order to follow the full extent of the trial." Cohen said he is interested in protests concerning Israel as well as in the trial.

Who is Todd Blanche? 

In his historic hush money trial taking place in lower Manhattan, Donald Trump is relying on one person more than anyone else: his lead defense attorney, Todd Blanche .

In 2019, Blanche led the team representing former Trump campaign chair Paul Manafort in a New York fraud case, in which he was accused of defrauding banks of more than $1 million by submitting false financial statements when applying for residential mortgage loans. 

The judge in that case ultimately dismissed the charges, but Manafort was sentenced to 7.5 years in prison as a result of two other federal cases.

Judge blocks Trump lawyer's 'crying little s---' question as Cohen cross-examination starts

Trump lawyer Todd Blanche opened his cross-examination of Michael Cohen by asking Cohen to confirm they've never met but Cohen knows who Blanche is. Cohen said that was true.

Blanche then asked Cohen to confirm he went on TikTok and called Blanche a "crying little s---."

The prosecution objected to the question and Judge Merchan quickly sustained the objection. When Blanche then asked Cohen if Cohen has commented on Trump lawyer Susan Necheles, the prosecution objected again and Merchan not only sustained the objection, but also called the lawyers up to his bench, perhaps to caution Blanche further on the line of questioning.

Trump arrives in courtroom

Former President Donald Trump entered the courtroom for the afternoon cross-examination of Michael Cohen at 2:10 p.m. EDT. Eric and Lara Trump, as well as Vivek Ramaswamy, are still with the Trump team this afternoon. They've now seated themselves in the first row of benches behind the defense table, where Trump and his lawyers are seated.

Prosecution team arrives for afternoon proceedings

The prosecution team entered the courtroom at 2:05 p.m. EDT for the afternoon proceedings. We're still waiting on the defense team, the judge, and the jury.

Who is Judge Juan Merchan?

New York Judge Juan Merchan  who is presiding the  first criminal trial in history  of a former president, is no stranger to the defendant, Donald Trump.

Merchan presided over a 2022 tax-fraud trial of two parts of the Trump Organization, in which the company’s former chief financial officer, Allen Weisselberg, was convicted for not reporting $1.7 million in benefits, and he sentenced Weisselberg to five months in jail.

Trump has attacked Merchan as biased on the grounds that Merchan's daughter works for a marketing firm with Democratic politicians as clients, and he has twice unsuccessfully moved for Merchan to recuse himself from the case. Merchan has refused , citing the New York State Advisory Committee on Judicial Ethics finding that the judge's impartiality couldn't be reasonably questioned based on his daughter's work.

Trump's attacks spurred Merchan to expand a gag order to limit his commentary about the family members of people involved in the trial. On the second day of the trial, Merchan chastised Trump for speaking to prospective jurors.

Merchan has been a felony judge  for 15 years .

- Bart Jansen

Who is Stormy Daniels and what is her real name?

Stormy Daniels , born Stephanie Clifford, is an adult film star. Daniels says she had an affair with Trump in 2006, months after Melania Trump gave birth to Barron Trump. Trump's former lawyer Michael Cohen paid her $130,000 to stay quiet about the alleged affair ahead of the 2016 presidential election.

Trump's lawyers tried to block Daniels from being called to the witness stand, but New York  Judge Juan Merchan ruled  that  Daniels can testify  because her allegations are "inextricably intertwined" with the criminal allegations.

- Kinsey Crowley , Bart Jansen

Who is Michael Cohen

Michael Cohen, the former Trump lawyer and fixer , is the key in the New York hush-money trial that could send the former president to prison.

Cohen testified that Trump directed him to engineer payments to two women who alleged in the runup to the 2016 presidential election that they had affairs with the married candidate.

While Cohen is Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg's star witness, he may also be the prosecution's greatest vulnerability, given his history of perjury and a felony conviction.

- Josh Meyer

Cohen cross-examination to start after lunch break

Prosecutor Susan Hoffinger indicated she had no further questions for Michael Cohen . Trump's defense team is set to begin its cross-examination at about 2:15 p.m. EDT, after a lunch break. Trump lawyer Todd Blanche was handling objections for the defense while Cohen has been testifying. Generally the same lawyer who handles objections for a particular witness questions that witness.

'Lying, bullying': Cohen describes his regrets

Prosecutor asked Cohen if he had any regrets about his past work or association with Donald Trump.

"I regret doing things for him that I should not have," Cohen said. "Lying, bullying people in order to effectuate the goal."

Cohen said he doesn't regret working with the Trump Organization, adding that there were some "very interesting" times.

"But to keep the loyalty and to do things that he had asked me to do, I violated my moral compass and I suffered the penalty, as has my family."

Trump dropped lawsuit seeking $500 million from Cohen

Cohen described Trump suing him for $500 million, saying the lawsuit was partly based on Cohen testifying to a grand jury.

Prosecutor Susan Hoffinger asked Cohen about the effect the lawsuit had on him. "Financial, as well as emotional," Cohen said.

The lawsuit was brought in April of 2023, alleging Cohen made money from "fictionalized accounts" in his 2020 book,  Disloyal: A Memoir . Trump said the accounts were prohibited by a confidentiality agreement.

Trump later dropped the lawsuit, and a judge ordered the case closed in October .

Read Trump's tweets after Cohen's guilty plea

Here are Donald Trump's two tweets from the day after Cohen pleaded guilty to federal crimes, which were shown to jurors today in Trump's hush money trial:

Trump tweets day after Cohen's guilty plea

Prosecutor Susan Hoffinger asked Cohen about two tweets by Trump on Aug. 22, 2018 – the day after Cohen pleaded guilty to federal crimes. Cohen said he was aware of the Trump tweets on that day.

In the first tweet, Trump said: "If anyone is looking for a good lawyer, I would strongly suggest that you don't retain the services of Michael Cohen!"

In the second tweet, Trump posted that he "felt very badly" for his associate Paul Manafort, saying "unlike Michael Cohen, he refused to 'break' – make up stories in order to get a 'deal.' Such respect for a brave man!"

Cohen said he interpreted the tweets as expressing "certainly displeasure" about his decision to plead guilty.

Asked whether Cohen read in the tweets a message from Trump about whether Cohen should cooperate with the government, he said he interpreted them as saying: "No, do not cooperate."

Asked how the tweets affect him, Cohen said: "Caused a lot of angst, anxiety."

'Worst day of my life': Cohen describes pleading guilty to federal crimes

Cohen told jurors about pleading guilty to federal crimes on Aug. 21, 2018, including campaign finance violations and tax evasion.

Prosecutor Susan Hoffinger asked what that day was like for him. "Worst day of my life," Cohen said.

Cohen says hush money to Stormy Daniels was for Trump campaign

Prosecutor Susan Hoffinger asked Cohen why he paid $130,000 in hush money to porn star Stormy Daniels.

"To ensure that the story would not come out, would not affect Mr. Trump's chances of becoming president of the United States," Cohen said.

Hoffinger asked if Cohen would have paid the money if not for the campaign. "No, ma'am," he said.

On whose behalf "did you commit that crime?" Hoffinger asked. Cohen said it was on behalf of "Mr. Trump."

This is an important part of the prosecution's case . They are arguing Trump committed felonies because he falsified business records in order to conceal violating campaign finance laws through the Stormy Daniels hush money payment. Trump may want to argue the payment was about shielding his family, not helping the campaign.

Cohen describes switching loyalties

Prosecutor Susan Hoffinger's questioning is moving into Cohen deciding to plead guilty to federal crimes, including to crimes tied to his involvement in the hush money deals with Karen McDougal and Stormy Daniels.

Hoffinger asked Cohen where he decided his loyalty should be.

"To my wife, my daughter, my son, and the country," Cohen said.

‘American people have already acquitted Donald Trump’: Burgum

Two House Republicans and two former GOP rivals for the presidency served as proxies for former President Donald Trump outside the New York courthouse for his hush money trial, criticizing witness Michael Cohen and Judge Juan Merchan in ways that Trump can’t under his gag order.

Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla. , said Cohen filled out false invoices to the Trump Organization for reimbursement for paying $130,000 to porn actress Stormy Daniels, despite Trump being charged with falsification of business records.

“This is a joke, it is a farce, it is a travesty,” Donalds said.

Rep. Cory Mills, R-Fla., also criticized Cohen as a convicted liar.

“Michael Cohen has no credibility, no integrity,” Mills said. “This is weaponization against our president.”

Vivek Ramaswamy, a businessman who ran for the Republican presidential nomination, criticized Merchan because his daughter works with Democratic politicians, although a state ethics board cleared him to preside over the trial.

“This is some third-rate banana republic,” Ramaswamy said.

North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum said the “scam trial” prevented Trump from campaigning against President Joe Biden on issues such as inflation, crime, border security and the economy. But he cited two recent polls that found Trump leading in swing states.

“The American people have already acquitted Donald Trump,” Burgum said.

– Bart Jansen

Cohen says lawyer proposed back channel to communicate with Trump

Michael Cohen described having a meeting with a lawyer named Robert Costello, who struck Cohen as "sketchy."

Cohen testified that Costello described himself as "incredibly close" to Rudy Giuliani , and that relationship "will be very beneficial" for Cohen going forward because Giuliani  was close to and spending a "tremendous" amount of time with Trump.

Costello also said "this would be a great way to have a back channel communication to the president in order to ensure that you're still good and that you're still secure," according to Cohen.

Cohen said Costello met him with a retainer agreement, but Cohen told Costello was still meeting with other lawyers and didn't sign it.

New York appeals court upholds Trump gag order in hush money case

A New York court rejected former President Donald Trump’s appeal of the gag order in his hush money trial that prevents him from talking about witnesses or jurors.

Five judges on the New York Supreme Court Appellate Division's First Department ruled Tuesday that Judge Juan Merchan ruled correctly to protect the integrity of the trial.

“Justice Merchan properly determined that petitioner’s public statements posed a significant threat to the integrity of the testimony of witnesses and potential witnesses in this case as well,”

Judge Juan Merchan ordered Trump not to comment on witnesses or jurors to avoid intimidating or harassing participants in the trial. Merchan ruled Trump violated the gag order 10 times and fined him $10,000 – and threatened him with jail for future violations.

Gag orders were also upheld on appeal in Trump’s New York civil real estate fraud trial, where he was fined $15,000, and his federal election interference case.

But Trump, who contends the trial is political interference to keep him off the presidential campaign trail, has argued he has a First Amendment right to respond to his accusers.

“The gag order has to come off,” Trump told reporters Tuesday before entering the courtroom. “It’s a scam. It’s election interference.”

Liz Cheney: Mike Johnson joins Trump's 'I cheated on my wife with a porn star' club

The Trump defense surrogate drawing the most attention is House Speaker Mike Johnson – much of it referencing Johnson's strong Christian viewpoint.

"Have to admit I’m surprised that @SpeakerJohnson wants to be in the 'I cheated on my wife with a porn star' club," said former U.S. Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., on the social media site X.

"I guess he’s not that concerned with teaching morality to our young people after all."

The Lincoln Project, an anti-Trump political organization, said on X: "So good of pious Mike Johnson to show support for cheating on your wife with a porn star, paying her hush money to cover it up, and falsifying business records so America doesn’t find out about it before an election."

Johnson, one of several high-profile Republicans to travel to New York City to speak on Trump's behalf, said he wanted to appear because he believes the trial to be unfair, especially in an election year.

“These are politically motivated trials and they are a disgrace," Johnson told reporters.

– David Jackson

Trump tweets reinforced Cohen's loyalty, Cohen says

The jurors were again shown April 21, 2018 tweets by Trump praising Michael Cohen as "a fine person with a wonderful family," and saying while most people would flip if the government lets them out of trouble, Trump didn't see Cohen doing that.

Prosecutor Susan Hoffinger asked how Trump's tweets affected Cohen. "Reinforced my loyalty and my intention to stay in the fold," Cohen said.

Cohen said he understood Trump didn't want him to cooperate with the government, to provide information, or to flip.

'(Trump's) Justice Department should go nowhere': Cohen describes effect of Trump call after FBI raid

"I was scared," Cohen said about how he felt at the time the FBI raided his office and he called Trump. "First time in my life anything like this. And I wanted some reassurance that Mr. Trump had my back, especially as this dealt with issues that related to him."

Cohen also described how Trump's message not to worry and everything was going to be fine impacted him.

"I felt reassured, because I had the president of the United States protecting me. His Justice Department should go nowhere. And so I felt reassured, and I remained in the camp," Cohen said.

Prosecutor Susan Hoffinger asked Cohen what he meant by saying he stayed in the fold and in the Trump camp. Cohen confirmed to her that he stayed loyal to Trump and continued to lie about Trump's involvement.

'Don't worry. I'm the president of the United States.': Cohen describes last time he spoke to Trump

Cohen said he left a message for Trump to call him after his office was raided by the FBI . He said he wanted Trump to know what was taking place.

According to Cohen, Trump called him back and said:

"Don't worry. I'm the president of the United States. There's nothing here. Everything's going to be okay. Stay tough. You're going to be okay."

Cohen said that was the last time he spoke to Trump.

'Concerned. Despondent. Angry.': How Michael Cohen says he felt after FBI raid

Michael Cohen described being raided by the Federal Bureau of Investigation under a search warrant. Prosecutor Susan Hoffinger asked Cohen how he felt after that happened.

Cohen replied: "How to describe your life being turned upside down? Concerned. Despondent. Angry."

Hoffinger asked if Cohen was frightened. "Yes, ma'am," Cohen said.

Jurors instructed to ignore FEC investigation in assessing Trump's guilt

Jurors have now heard testimony about the Federal Election Commission having investigated the hush money to Daniels, as well as about the responses to the FEC from Cohen and his lawyer. Judge Merchan instructed jurors that, although they have heard that testimony, they cannot consider it when they are determining whether Trump is guilty of the 34 felony counts of falsifying business records. Instead, Merchan said, the testimony is being permitted so they can assess Cohen's credibility and have context for surrounding events.

Remember, Trump is charged with felonies based on the prosecution's theory that Trump falsified business records in order to commit or conceal another crime . Prosecutors say Trump was concealing unlawful interference in the 2016 presidential election through a hush money payment to Daniels that violated campaign finance laws.

Read statement from Cohen lawyer to FEC

You can read the full Feb. 8, 2018 statement from Cohen's lawyer to the Federal Election Commission here:

Cohen describes 'misleading' denial to FEC on Daniels hush money reimbursement

Prosecutor Susan Hoffinger showed jurors a Feb. 8, 2018 statement Cohen's lawyer made to the Federal Election Commission that Cohen just testified was intentionally misleading. The statement referred to "Ms. Clifford," the real name of porn star Stormy Daniels. One portion of it stated:

"Neither the Trump Organization nor the Trump campaign was a party to the transaction with Ms. Clifford, and neither reimbursed Mr. Cohen for the payment directly or indirectly."

Cohen said that portion was literally true but intentionally misleading: it omitted that the Trump revocable trust as well as Trump personally reimbursed Cohen for the hush money he paid Daniels.

Cohen later pleaded guilty to campaign finance violations, including in relation to the Stormy Daniels hush money.

House Speaker Mike Johnson defends Trump

House Speaker Mike Johnson came to Trump’s defense Tuesday, echoing the former president’s criticism of the judge and prosecutor in the hush money trial and voicing what Trump can’t under his gag order by slamming witness Michael Cohen and the judge’s daughter.

“The judicial system in our country has been weaponized against President Trump,” the Louisiana Republican said.  “The system is using all the tools at its disposal right now to punish one president, to provide cover for another.”

Cohen was Trump’s personal lawyer who arranged a $130,000 payment to keep Stormy Daniels quiet before the 2016 election about her claim of a sexual episode with Trump while he was married. Cohen has been convicted and imprisoned for lying to Congress about one of Trump’s real estate projects and to the Internal Revenue Service about his income.

“This is a man who is clearly on a mission for personal revenge and who is widely known as a witness who has trouble with the truth,” Johnson said of Cohen. “He has a history of perjury and is well known for it. No one should believe a word he says today.”

Judge Juan Merchan’s daughter does marketing work for Democratic politicians. A state ethics board cleared Merchan to preside over the case. But Johnson said the relationship demonstrates the Democratic priorities behind prosecuting the presumptive Republican nominee for president.

“They have him tied up here in this ridiculous prosecution that is not about justice, it is all about politics and everybody can see that,” Johnson said. “It’s so corrupt and everyone knows it.”

Cohen says he wanted to cash in as president's personal lawyer

Cohen testified that he wanted to monetize being named the president's personal attorney. He said he made $4 million from clients around that period.

Who is Allen Weisselberg? 

Allen Weisselberg is a former chief financial officer at the Trump Organization who was sentenced to five months in jail for perjury during former President Donald Trump’s civil fraud trial last year. 

Weisselberg had previously been sentenced to five months for tax fraud after falsifying Trump Organization business records and failing to report $1.7 million in benefits. 

Justice Juan Merchan suggested prosecutors consider calling Weisselberg to testify in Trump’s ongoing case in New York Friday after Trump's legal team objected to prosecutors’ attempts to show jurors Weisselberg’s $750,000 severance agreement, POLITICO reported. Merchan ruled Monday that prosecutors can't show jurors that agreement.

Cohen says Trump's signatures are on checks

Michael Cohen was shown a series of checks that he said corresponded to the invoices he submitted in 2017, which he said were false invoices. Several of them, he said, had Trump's personal signature on them. Earlier witness testimony has also confirmed Trump's signature on checks that prosecutors say correspond to these invoices.

Cohen testifies he submitted false invoices

Jurors were shown an invoice Michael Cohen submitted in 2017 stating that he was submitting the invoice pursuant to a retainer agreement, which is an agreement about compensation that reserves a lawyers pays for future services. Cohen just told jurors that statement was false – the requested money wasn't pursuant to a retainer agreement.

Cohen's invoice also said the requested payment was for services rendered for January and February of 2017. Cohen testified that statement was also false. He already told jurors yesterday these payments were actually reimbursing him for paying porn star Stormy Daniels $130,000 in hush money, as well as reimbursing him for another expense and paying him a bonus.

Prosecutor Susan Hoffinger is continuing to show jurors invoices Cohen submitted in 2017, and he is continuing to testify that the invoices were false in similar ways.

When did Donald Trump marry Melania? 

Melania Trump, born Melanija Knavs, married former President Donald Trump in January 2005. They have one son, Barron. He was born in March 2006. 

Mike Johnson comes to Trump’s defense 

House Speaker Mike Johnson will deliver remarks at 10:15 a.m. EDT at a park next to the Manhattan courthouse where Trump’s hush money trial is ongoing, according to a media advisory. 

The advisory says that Johnson will discuss the “political persecution” of Trump by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and President Joe Biden’s “weaponized Department of Justice.” There is no evidence that Biden is behind the hush money trial. 

Jury shown photo of Michael Cohen at White House

The jury again saw a photo of Michael Cohen at the White House. Here is a screenshot from the photo jurors were shown:

The photo, along with earlier testimony from former Trump White House aide Madeleine Westerhout , corroborates prosecutors' story that Cohen visited the White House in February of 2017. There was also testimony earlier in the trial that metadata associated with the photo indicates it was taken on Feb. 8, 2017.

Cohen testifying about 2017 invoice email

Prosecutor Susan Hoffinger has started questioning Cohen. She showed jurors an email jurors have seen before of Jeffrey McConney , the former financial controller for the Trump Organization, asking Cohen in February of 2017 to send him invoices. McConney appears to reference Allen Weisselberg, the former chief financial officer of the Trump Organization.

The email stated: "Mike, Just a reminder to get me the invoices you spoke to Allen about. Thanks, Jeff"

Cohen enters the courtroom after lengthy lawyer-judge conversation

Michael Cohen entered the courtroom at 9:39 a.m. EDT for his second day of testimony in the trial. The judge spoke to the lawyers privately at his bench for several minutes before asking for Cohen to be brought in. We are now just waiting on the jury.

Is Michael Cohen married?

Michael Cohen is married and has two children, a son and a daughter. Cohen has been very protective of his family in the past, expressing fear that Trump's rhetoric could endanger them. Cohen said yesterday his marriage is going on 30 years.

Trump and supporters enter the courtroom

Donald Trump entered the courtroom at 9:25 a.m. EDT for Day 17 of his criminal trial. Today, Lara Trump, co-chair of the Republican National Committee, is here.

Lara Trump's husband and the former president's middle son, Eric Trump, is also here. He has attended multiple days of the trial.

And potential vice presidential pick on the Trump campaign ticket, Vivek Ramaswamy, is here. 

Prosecution arrives for Day 17 of trial

The prosecution team entered the courtroom at 9:13 a.m. EDT. We are still waiting for the Trump defense team, Judge Juan Merchan, and the jury.

Trump supporters respond to posts criticizing judges with threats of violence

Judge Juan Merchan has ordered Donald Trump not to comment on witnesses or jurors, to avoid influencing in his New York hush trial, but a Reuters investigation found the former president’s social media posts about the judge and prosecutors inspired widespread threats of violence.

Trump has repeatedly called Merchan a “highly conflicted” judge and in an April 23 post on Truth Social, said he was presiding over a “kangaroo court.” Trump’s supporters swiftly replied with posts on the Patriots.win website, including “treason is a hangable offense” and “needs to be strangled with piano wire before he makes it to the hangman.”

Reuters documented more than 150 posts since March 1 calling for physical violence against judges in three Trump cases – Merchan, New York Judge Arthur Engoron in his civil fraud case and Fulton County Superior Judge Scott McAfee in his Georgia election racketeering case. The posts were part of a larger pool of hundreds that included hostile, racist or sexualized langue to attack the judges short of explicitly calling for violence.

“Articulating these ideas is the first step along the pathway of mobilizing to violence,” said Mitch Silber, a former New York City Police Department director of intelligence analysis.

Trump spokesperson Steven Cheung said the presumptive Republican presidential nominee has a right to criticize what he called “un-Constitutional witch hunts” and said “Democrats and crazed lunatics” have called for “despicable violence” against Trump.

Was Michael Cohen disbarred?

Michael Cohen was disbarred after he pleaded guilty to multiple crimes in 2018, including lying to Congress.

A panel of New York state judges granted a request from a New York attorney grievance committee to strike Cohen's name from the official list of attorneys in New York state in February of 2019.

Cohen "ceased to be an attorney upon his federal conviction of making false statements to the United States Congress," the panel said in its opinion .

The move was retroactive, striking Cohen's name from the list as of the date he pleaded guilty to lying to Congress, Nov. 29, 2018.

What was Michael Cohen convicted of?

In August 2018,  Michael Cohen pleaded guilty to tax evasion, making false statements to a bank, and violating campaign finance laws by causing or issuing two hush money payments ahead of the 2016 election: $130,000 to porn star Stormy Daniels and $150,00 to model Karen McDougal, the latter of which was paid by American Media Inc. Those amounts greatly exceed the personal contribution limits to a political candidate.

In November 2018, Michael Cohen pleaded guilty to one count of making false statements to Congress. In an effort to protect Trump, had told Congress his boss stopped trying to pursue a real-estate deal in Moscow in January 2016 when they actually continued efforts through June 2016.

Cohen was sentenced to three years in prison, according to a  Department of Justice release .

House Speaker Mike Johnson to appear with Trump

House Speaker Mike Johnson will make an appearance in the courthouse with Trump on Tuesday morning, showing solidarity with the former president according to a person familiar with the planning.

Johnson joins a number of high-profile Republicans joining Trump in Manhattan to support the former president.

Punchbowl News was first to report Johnson’s appearance.

Michael Cohen recording with Trump

On Monday, jurors listened again to a recording of a conversation between Trump and Cohen. This time, Cohen was there to testify about it. He said the pair were discussing a hush money deal to silence former Playboy model Karen McDougal . She has alleged she had a months-long affair with Trump that overlapped with Melania Trump's pregnancy. Trump denies the claim.

On the recording , Cohen references "info regarding our friend, David." That was a reference to David Pecker, Cohen told jurors. Pecker has testified he agreed to be "eyes and ears" in Trump's 2016 presidential campaign efforts by helping identify potentially damaging stories to prevent them from being published.

Cohen and Trump also talk about "financing" on the recording. Cohen said he made the recording to reassure Pecker that Trump planned to pay him back for the hush money to McDougal.

The New York criminal trial against former President Trump isn't televised. But courtroom sketch artists make renditions of court proceedings each day. Here is one sketch by Jane Rosenberg of Michael Cohen's testimony Monday, with prosecutor Susan Hoffinger questioning Cohen and Trump looking on:

What is Trump on trial for?

Trump is charged with 34 felony counts of falsifying business records. Prosecutors say the real estate mogul was trying to cover up unlawfully interfering in the 2016 presidential election through a hush money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels.

Putin concludes a trip to China by emphasizing its strategic and personal ties to Russia

Russian President Vladimir Putin says that Moscow’s offensive in Ukraine’s Kharkiv region aims to create a buffer zone but has no plans to capture the city.

Russian President Vladimir Putin on Friday said his country is ready to provide support to Chinese businesses setting up production in Russia. “We are ready to provide investors from China with economic benefits, assistance and support, as well as access to the unique Russian technological base of highly qualified personnel,” Putin said during an address at the opening of the Russia-China expo event in the Chinese city of Harbin.

BEIJING (AP) — Russian President Vladimir Putin concluded a two-day visit to China on Friday, emphasizing the countries’ burgeoning strategic ties as well as his own personal relationship with Chinese leader Xi Jinping as they sought to present an alternative to U.S. global influence.

Putin praised the growth in bilateral trade while touring a China-Russia Expo in the northeastern city of Harbin. He met students at the Harbin Institute of Technology, known for its defense research and its work with the People’s Liberation Army.

Harbin, capital of China’s Heilongjiang province, was once home to many Russian expatriates and retains some of that history in its architecture, such as the central St. Sophia Cathedral, a former Russian Orthodox church.

Underscoring the personal nature of the relationship, Putin said the Harbin institute and his alma mater, St. Petersburg State University, will open a joint school for 1,500 students. “I’m sure that it will become a flagship of the Russian-Chinese cooperation in science and education,” he said

Speaking to reporters, Putin praised his talks with Xi as “substantive,” saying that he spent “almost a whole day, from morning till evening” with the Chinese leader and other officials in Beijing the previous day. As he departed Beijing, the two leaders embraced.

The partnership between China and Russia “is not directed against anyone,” Putin said in a veiled reference to the West. “It is aimed at one thing: creating better conditions for the development of our countries and improving the well-being of the people of China and the Russian Federation.”

But he still had a back-handed rebuke for the U.S., and others who oppose the Moscow-Beijing relationship, saying an “emerging multipolar world ... is now taking shape before our eyes.”

“And it is important that those who are trying to maintain their monopoly on decision-making in the world on all issues ... do everything in their power to ensure that this process goes naturally,” he said.

Both Russia and China have frequently spoken of the “emerging multipolar world” in response to what they view as U.S. hegemony.

Joseph Torigian, a research fellow at Stanford University’s Hoover Institute, said the message being sent by China and Russia was clear: “At this moment, they’re reminding the West that they can be defiant when they want to.”

In Washington, White House national security spokesman John Kirby played down the importance of the meeting, saying that although the two countries are acting in ways that are contrary to U.S. interests, they don’t have a long history of trusting each other.

Kirby noted that a U.S. intelligence assessment released last month indicates that China has surged sales to Russia of machine tools, microelectronics and other technology Moscow uses to produce missiles, tanks, aircraft and other weaponry. “But they’re also two leaders that don’t have a long history of working together, and officials in both governments that aren’t necessarily all that trustful of the other,” Kirby said.

”What they have in common is a desire to to challenge the international rules based order,” and to challenge alliances and partnerships involving the U.S., Kirby said.

Taiwan’s Foreign Minister Joseph Wu addressed Putin’s visit in an interview with The Associated Press , saying Western powers should continue to support Ukraine as part of sending a message that democracies will defend one another.

“If Ukraine is defeated at the end, I think China is going to get inspired, and they might take even more ambitious steps in expanding their power in the Indo-Pacific, and it will be disastrous for the international community,” Wu said.

Putin this month began his fifth term in power and Xi began his third last year. The Russian leader’s trip “is an example of the two big authoritarian countries supporting each other, working together with each other, supporting each other’s expansionism,” Wu added.

Russia has become isolated globally following the 2022 invasion of Ukraine . China has a tense relationship with the U.S., which has labeled it a competitor, and faces pressure for continuing to supply key components to Russia needed for weapons production.

Putin began the day by laying flowers at a Harbin monument to fallen Soviet soldiers who had fought for China against the Japanese during the second Sino-Japanese war, when Japan occupied parts of China.

At the trade exhibition in Harbin, Putin emphasized the importance of Russia-China cooperation in jointly developing new technologies.

“Relying on traditions of friendship and cooperation, we can look into the future with confidence,” he said. “The Russian-Chinese partnership helps our countries’ economic growth, ensures energy security, helps develop production and create new jobs.”

A joint statement on Thursday described their world view and expounded on criticism of U.S. military alliances in Asia and the Pacific. The meeting was yet another affirmation of the friendly “no-limits” relationship China and Russia signed in 2022, just before Moscow invaded Ukraine.

Talks of ending the fighting featured frequently in Thursday’s remarks, although Russia has just opened a new front by launching attacks in Ukraine’s northeastern border area. The war is at a critical point for Ukraine , which had faced delays in getting weapons from the U.S.

China offered a broad plan for peace last year that was rejected by both Ukraine and the West for failing to call for Russia to leave occupied parts of Ukraine.

Since the invasion and subsequent Western sanctions on Moscow, Russia has increasingly depended on China for technology and some consumer imports while exporting cheap energy. Trade between the two countries increased to $240 billion last year.

European leaders have pressed China to influence Russia to end its invasion, to little avail. Experts say the Moscow-Beijing relationship offers strategic benefits, particularly when both have tensions with Europe and the U.S.

“Even if China compromises on a range of issues, including cutting back support on Russia, it’s unlikely that the U.S. or the West will drastically change their attitude to China as a competitor,” said Hoo Tiang Boon, who researches Chinese foreign policy at Singapore’s Nanyang Technological University. “They see very little incentive for compromise.”

Xi and Putin have a longstanding agreement to visit each other’s countries once a year, and Xi was welcomed at the Kremlin last year.

Wu reported from Bangkok. AP writers Dasha Litvinova in Tallinn, Estonia, and Simina Mistreanu and Christopher Bodeen in Taipei, Taiwan, contributed.
