The Times story said "federal or state investigations" (obviously vague). But you're right that Cohen is showing some signs he might flip (e.g. talking about the toll this is having on his family). There's also been reporting that the President's legal team expects it (I think "resigned" to it was the language).

Such as?


Mr President,

When the deal was made for the purchase of the Russian oil company, did you in any way know if Jared Kushner was a undisclosed party in the negotiations?

Did you also have knowledge of any financial perks which would allow Mr Kushner to obtain 184 million dollars through a Qatari entity, when no American institutions would lend him the money?

We can start here. I’ll have more questions later

Good point. Whatever it is, its not good news for michael cohen. He isn't getting no jail time without something valuable in return.

I am curious as to why the state is doing this as opposed to the feds. I guess we will find out.

If Cohen was killed, that would pose an interesting optic issue for trump.

Standard language for a plea agreement to require cooperation in all law enforcement investigations. This means literally nothing.
