    Cohen is a really big fish to fry from the Trump swamp. He's the linchpin in Trump's shady operations with over 10 years of information. Dedicated and loyal to Trump indicting Cohen would probably hit Trump harder than indicting one of his kids.

    Charges have not been filed against Michael Cohen. Just a no knock search warrant.

    I don't think I could be clearer. Mueller knows he's got nothing. He's trying to goad Trump into firing him to create a shitstorm in Congress. It's very simple.

    Trump was dangling pardons and now this big fish in NY can kiss his pardon bye bye.

    He's not investigating real crime. Clinton is safe in her padded bathtub.

    What were they looking for? It might not have a thing to do with Trump nor for that matter, Stormy Daniels. Absent a crime vs Daniels, I can't imagine why Cohen would be looked at given he says he has fully complied with all former requests.

    You could attempt to present something resembling evidence.

    The Manhattan US Attorney is the organization that executed this investigation, on the basis of the referral from Mueller. In other words, this is outside the realm of the Mueller investigation, but is still evidence of a criminal act.

    Well; unless the judge is an activist judge out to get Trump, and the evidence presented to get a warrant is on par with evidence, presented to FISA court.

    That is possible, but unlikely. To get a no knock warrant against a laywer's office is extreeeeemely tough.

    They may be going against any of hundreds of Cohen's clients and not him at all.

    I did not know you saw the warrant and the argument to obtain it. What does it say?

    If that was the plan trump came up with I would say you might be right, but that is only because trump is a delusional idiot. I am pretty sure that would be the worst plan ever. This is what happens to people when they try to defend trump and reason out his lies. That was some Olympic level mental gymnastics there.
