Federal prosecutors said Tuesday, for the first time, that the National Enquirer played a pivotal role in silencing adult-film star Stormy Danielsabout her alleged affair with Donald Trump during the 2016 election.
Those details emerged as Michael Cohen, the former fixer and personal attorney for Trump, pleaded guilty to tax evasion, bank fraud, and campaign-finance law violations in Manhattan federal court. Cohen faces years in federal prison after he’s sentenced on December 12.
The campaign-finance violations concern Cohen’s role in arranging hush-money payments for Daniels and ex-Playboy model Karen McDougal, who also said she had an affair with Trump. Prosecutors said these payments, which served to suppress damaging information about a candidate for federal office, were tantamount illegal campaign contributions to Trump.
