You have no basis to claim that was their motive when they requested a wiretap of Cohen. You also have no way to claim it was Trump on the intercepted call from the White House. So this is a preposterous statement to make.
You don't need a wiretap to investigate bank fraud and money laundering. That is a serious waste of time and resources. You think it's a coincidence Trump has been under investigation for a year and all of a sudden his lawyer's office is tapped and then raided? The Feds give mobsters more consideration than they gave Cohen. First it was Russian collusion, then it was obstruction and now it's a campaign finance issue.

Okay? And you know that's all they're investigating Cohen for how?

So is Trump even a suspected of anything?

This is from CNN:
quote:
Michael Cohen, President Donald Trump's personal attorney, has been "under criminal investigation" for months in New York because of his business dealings, the Justice Department said Friday.
The basis for the criminal investigation is Cohen's business dealings. We're talking about the S.D.N.Y. here. This is the prime target for terrorism in the world. This is the home of La Cosa Nostra, the Russian Mafia, a distribution point for Latin drug cartels and home to scores of street gangs engaged in RICO activities.
These are the cases you expect to see wiretaps, because you have people who are extremely insulated from day-to-day criminality and there's no other way to obtain similar information.
Wiretaps are expensive in terms of time and manpower. To think that a lawyer who has 3 clients is worthy of the resources and time required to effectuate a long-term wiretap is to feign logic. If Cohen didn't represent Donald Trump and he was under investigation, they would have subpoenaed documents and conducted an interview like they would for almost all other business crime investigations.

MSNBC now reporting Cohen's calls are being logged ("pen register"), not a title III wiretap.

NBC has now retracted its "scoop" about a wiretap. A pen register is much easier to get and much less intrusive than a wiretap. No actual phone call content is listened to. Basically it's a real-time log of calls.

So they are fake news.
And I don't believe them

Damn! That was a factstorm complete with factnados.

I’m thinking the people leaking these things may actually be white hats. They see the corruption and lies behind closed doors and they are bringing them to the world to see by leaking.

Since when did the Republican Party consider valid search warrants a "DISGRACE!" ?
Or are you stupid enough to think that they did this without a warrant?

a warrant based on a bunch of lies laundered to FBI by the Democrats?!?! As we’ve learned over the last couple of years, just bc a warrant was issued, doesn’t mean it was “lawfully obtained”— at this point, it’s more likely than not the warrant was issued on false information. And they’ve prolly been listening in on him since the election.
