CNBC: Trump Escapes FEC Punishment For Karen McDougal Hush Money, But National Enquirer Publisher Pays Settlement
Michael Cohen, a former lawyer for ex-President Donald Trump, admitted to facilitating hush money payments at his behest to Karen McDougal and Stormy Daniels.
Former president Donald Trump won’t face a fine or any other kind of punishment from the Federal Election Commission for ordering $150,000 in secret payments to be made to Karen McDougal to keep their alleged affair quiet.
The National Enquirer has to pay up more than Trump did. https://t.co/vSRZcEKdqK via @TPM
