Michael Cohen’s testimony on Capitol Hill last week is still irking President Donald Trump.
Trump late Sunday complained about "Presidential Harassment" in investigations being led by "crazed Democrats" and of the "corrupt Mainstream Media that any president has ever had to endure" following three days of testimony by his former personal lawyer related to the Russia investigation, campaign finance law violations and hush money payments to porn star Stormy Daniels.
"For the Democrats to interview in open hearings a convicted liar & fraudster, at the same time as the very important Nuclear Summit with North Korea, is perhaps a new low in American politics and may have contributed to the 'walk'" he tweeted. "Never done when a president is overseas. Shame!"
It's unclear whether Trump left talks in North Korea with leader Kim Jong Un over the Cohen talks.
Following Cohen’s testimony, House Judiciary Committee Chairman Rep. Jerrod Nadler, R-N.Y., said he would be issuing document requests to over 60 different people from "the White House, to the Department of Justice, Donald Trump Jr., to begin investigations."
Democrats on the House Oversight Committee have also set a Monday deadline for materials related to a report that Trump overrode objections from senior officials to grant top-security clearance to his son-in-law Jared Kushner.
