The congressman who represents California’s Silicon Valley wants to summon a telecommunications behemoth to testify before the legislature to account for over a half a million dollars in payments made to the consulting firm, shell company that Trump’s lawyer and ambulance-chaser Michael Cohen established in order to pay hush money to keep secret a tryst between Trump and porn star Stormy Daniels.
The payments from AT&T only came to light in the wake of the attempt to silence Ms Daniels and although AT&T claims it only secured the services of Mr Cohen to gain insights into the inner workings of the administration, it’s intimated that the company was buying influence with the Federal Communications Commission to persuade them to repeal regulations that helped enshrine the principles of net neutrality and anti-trust laws that might be roadblocks to company acquiring a media monopoly.
