      @KlasfeldReports Am I correct that Wood did not issue a TRO yet, deferring to Monday? Does that mean FBI started going thru files at noon yesterday?

      Correct that she did not yet issue TRO. My understanding is that government paused probe of materials voluntarily until this docket resolves, but I need to double-check that with the transcript.

      Double-checked, and this is accurate. AUSA from the transcript: "After Mr. Cohen's counsel contacted us asking us to stop our review, and then after he filed the temporary restraining order, we ceased our review of this important evidence..." (cont'd)

      "...first as a courtesy and then in light of the pending motion, but every day that goes by is a day that we are lawfully allowed to review this evidence and further our investigation, and we're not able to." So the government volunteered to pause probe pending motion.

      Anytime. Also, interesting bit from the unsealed portion that took place at sidebar: AUSA: "It's that this is a fast-moving investigation. We are devoting a large amount of resources to the whole case but, in particular, to our filter team to get this review done very quickly."

      I am gobsmacked that he allegedly arranged a payoff for someone and used the same fake names for the female and male as in the Stormy Daniels case. What is Cohen's alleged connection to that other lawyer (KD)? How did that other lawyer get involved to begin with?

      Not sure if you saw @Popehat's comments on this yesterday, but it sure seems like these two had an extortion racket going.

          OK, so this sounds sleazy as shit, but I'm not sure I understand what crime Cohen would be committing if he discloses to the male that he was contacted by KD because they have had dealings like this previously...?

          It's not outside the realm of possibility that Cohen and KD have a line on who's fucking sex workers (broadly defined), have a pre-set hush agreement (on a sliding scale based on whether a child was conceived), but that Cohen tapes the arrangements to have kompromat on hushee.

          So for example, would Cohen -- and through him, Trump -- have leverage over Broidy for having set up (and recorded) a hush agreement for him?

          This sounds more and more like the mafia... or some new tv series.... My head is spinning.

          No question it is the mafia. And also a reality TV show overflowing its banks. And, sadly, it is our reality.

          TheSmokingGun did an extended profile on Davidson (featuring an attempt to blackmail the publication itself). Seems like these sort of 'partnerships' may be his MO: http://www.thesmokinggun.com/documents/investigation/keith-davidson-profile-907453 …

          Is it safe to assume that, if this is the case, all NDAs with Cohens fingerprints will be essentially meaningless? Is this why Trump is fuming?
