Prosecutors are done with their questioning of Tarasoff. There were no bombshell moments on the stand, but the evidence prosecutors introduced today was crucial.
He cedes the podium to Trump's lead attorney, Todd Blanche, for cross-examination. Each of the 34 felony charges against Trump corresponds to an invoice, ledger entry, or cheque tied to reimbursing Michael Cohen for the hush money payment to Stormy Daniels.
Today, we saw all those documents.
Prosecutors introduced this evidence by questioning Trump Organization ex-controller Jeffrey McConney, and an accounting employee named Deborah Tarasoff.
We heard that once Cohen’s repayments started coming from Trump’s personal account in spring 2017, the cheques would be sent to the White House for him to personally sign.
And we saw his unmissable, jagged signature, etched in Sharpie ink, on several of those payments.
