    The Special Counsel's Office declined to comment on the NYT report. Michael Cohen's lawyer, per the NYT, says the Special Counsel's Office referred the matter to the US Attorney's Office in Manhattan. The US Attorney's Office in Manhattan (SDNY) also declined to comment.https://twitter.com/csmcdaniel/status/983434457993695232 …

        Note: Although people keep referring to Berman, the US Atty in SDNY, as a Trump nominee, he is not. Although backed by the White House, he's not been nominated for the role. Right now, he's a Sessions appointee to the job. https://www.buzzfeed.com/chrisgeidner/federal-agents-seize-communications-of-trumps-personal?utm_term=.jprxJaElR#.gcDMk86qK …pic.twitter.com/PqHLRpd3F5

        OK, I'm home now, and I added more information to explain ~why it matters~ that Geoffrey Berman is a Sessions-appointed — and not Trump-nominated/Senate-confirmed — US attorney: https://www.buzzfeed.com/chrisgeidner/federal-agents-seize-communications-of-trumps-personal?utm_term=.ogxBRYzLq#.py0na32XQ …pic.twitter.com/1nQHoNobaL

        Inclined to believe this might be a bigger deal than Daniel's payments. *IF* RR is feeling the admin might apply pressure for keeping findings under wraps, seeking SDNY to prosecute/investigate means they won't be kept by Mueller's requirement to stay mum on findings.

        Or they thought he would destroy the evidence. WaPo reporting Cohen is being looked at for bank fraud, wire fraud, & campaign finance violations. Stormy Daniels accusations over the $130k.
