The latest revelations about Michael Cohen all stem from that document posted earlier this week by Stormy Daniels’ attorney Michael Avenatti. There were some small outgoing payments on the last of the seven pages that appear to have been tied to other ‘Michael Cohen’s’. Those were errors.

Or rather there was even more money than Avenatti’s document suggested. A lot more.
