    As speculation about Michael Cohen reaches a fever pitch, Judge Kimba Wood reminds everyone that Cohen, Trump, and the Trump Org are on the hook for half of the special master's expenses: https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/4511181-Cohen-v-USA-Order-on-Expenses-061318.html …pic.twitter.com/hVWGjGqgyf

        And, yes, I've been paying attention to the Cohen stories: 1. https://abcnews.go.com/US/trump-lawyer-michael-cohen-cooperate-attorneys-leave-case/story?id=55861988 … 2. https://www.wsj.com/articles/trump-lawyer-michael-cohens-attorneys-expected-to-quit-his-case-1528903379 … 3. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/13/nyregion/michael-cohen-investigation-lawyers-trump.html … Everyone appears to agree that Steve Ryan and Todd Harrison and the rest of McDermott Will & Emery are done after the doc review.

        None of the lawyers in the New York matter are making public statements, though, and there's nothing on the docket. In terms of the cooperation talk, it reads to me like a lot of background message-sending is going on with these stories.

        FWIW, Brent Blakely, Cohen's lawyer in the two Stormy Daniels lawsuits in California, tells me that nothing has changed in his representation of Cohen on those cases.

        How can they make them pay for an investigation when they haven’t been charged or indicted yet? Don’t get me wrong , I agree!! They should pay for all of it.

        There's no right to have a special master. USA-SDNY wanted to use its own "taint team" — lawyers uninvolved in the case — to review the docs for privilege, but C, T, & TO pressed for the special master. As such, they agreed to pay half of her costs.

        Well, the government agreed to pay the other half, so, yes, you’re technically right that the taxpayers are on the line for half! But, my point was about the Cohen part.

        In other words, "we don't care about truth nor law and order (I did officiate the Soros wedding after all), we're willing to resort to whatever communist tactics necessary to bring down the USA. And, I'm a judge who ignores the law in favor of partisan politics."

        What is your ridiculous tweet about? This is basically a restatement of the principles that were agreed upon as part of bringing on the special master. 🙄

        Nevermind that the whole point of all these lawsuits is to bankrupt people because your elite masters lost an election they were sure they'd rigged sufficiently and w/the help of seditious conspirators use communist tactics 24/7 for "death by 1000 cuts". #Traitorspic.twitter.com/05bECszahk

        But — hey — thanks for replying. Is the next step to dox me, bully my family and get me fired from my job before burning our house down? All because progressives are angry that their access to trafficked children to feed their habit is being cut off? https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/more-2300-suspected-online-child-sex-offenders-arrested-during-operation-broken-heart …pic.twitter.com/y4QwMG0wpp

        ... which means Trump is going to stick Cohen with the bill because it didn't turn out to be KFC and Big Macs for Trump Org. Hence the departure of the attorneys. Trump is a one trick pony.
