According to The Hill:

Long-time Trump personal attorney Michael Cohen has reached a plea deal with federal prosecutors in Manhattan regarding banking and tax fraud allegations, ABC News reported Tuesday.

The U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York’s office is running the probe, but any cooperation could extend to other federal investigations.

Beyond the banking and tax fraud charges, Cohen is being investigated for campaign finance violations for his role in alleged hush-money payments he coordinated with women who claimed to have had sexual encounters with President Trump.

The plea deal a surprising development since Cohen has not yet been charged formally with a crime. Cohen is set to appear in court at 4 p.m. to enter his plea deal.
