The ongoing testimony of Michael Cohen, former lawyer to Donald Trump, is a double-edged sword for the former president’s defense in the charges brought by Manhattan’s Democratic district attorney. While Trump’s lawyer aims to damage Cohen’s credibility, the jury may question why Trump kept him around for so long. The prosecution has attempted to corroborate Cohen’s testimony but has only done so on non-incriminating elements. Conversely, the Trump Organization’s CFO, Allen Weisselberg, has not corroborated Cohen’s key story on Trump’s knowledge of the payments. The defense should focus on the legality of non-disclosure agreements and refrain from attacking the issue of Trump’s state of mind too aggressively.

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has reportedly launched an investigation into the non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) used by top US banks, including JPMorgan, Bank of America, and Citi. The probe focuses on whether these agreements potentially discourage whistleblowers and hinder the reporting of wrongdoing to the regulator. The CFTC’s investigation follows similar government actions targeting companies accused of using NDAs to suppress employee disclosures of violations.

Taylor Swift’s ex-boyfriends rarely speak about their past relationships with the singer, and legal experts believe non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) may be the reason. Swift’s songs often draw inspiration from her past relationships, but her exes have largely remained quiet, unlike some high-profile relationships in the entertainment industry. While Swift has stated that she prefers to express her experiences through her music, legal expert Emma Gill believes NDAs are a likely explanation for her exes’ silence. NDAs are legal agreements that protect confidential information and prevent it from being used for personal gain. In the case of relationships, NDAs can prohibit ex-partners from discussing the relationship or sharing private details. This helps to protect both parties’ privacy and reputation.
