Ex-Trump lawyer Michael Cohen's testimony at House intel panel delayed by nearly 3 weeks

The planned testimony of Michael Cohen, the former personal attorney and fixer for President Donald Trump, at the House Intelligence Committee was rescheduled Wednesday to Feb. 28 — just days before he is slated to report to a federal prison.

Cohen was originally scheduled to testify before the panel this Friday.

But Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., said Cohen closed-door testimony would be delayed until Feb. 28 "in the interests of the investigation."

Trump, meanwhile, is slated to be in Vietnam on Feb. 28 for his second summit with North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un.
