President Donald Trump's former lawyer and confidant Michael Cohen has been cooperating with the Mueller Investigation for weeks. 

That's according to a report from ABC news, which says investigators have asked Cohen about a range of topics including the president's dealings in Russia, and whether he offered Cohen a pardon. 

Cohen was the president's personal lawyer for more than a decade, before getting wrapped up in a campaign finance investigation earlier this year.

He pleaded guilty to two counts of campaign finance fraud in August, and implicated the president

Since then President Trump has attacked Cohen on social media, and the president's new attorney Rudy Giuliani, called Cohen a pathological liar.

These reports come less than a week after President Trump's former campaign manager Paul Manafort agreed to work with the Mueller probe as part of his plea deal as well.
