According to a new report from The New York Times the focus of the FBI’s raid on Michael Cohen
FBI agents were seeking records related to the infamous “Access Hollywood” tape when they raided the office and hotel room of President Donald Trump’s lawyer Michael Cohen earlier this week, The New York Times reported Wednesday.
According to the Times, which cited three sources briefed on the contents of the federal search warrant, the FBI also sought evidence of whether Cohen attempted to suppress damaging information about Trump during the 2016 campaign. The Times said Cohen’s connection to the tape was unclear.
This is a new revelation in the raid of Trump’s lawyer hotel room and office. It was initially thought the center of the raid was around the Stormy Daniels payment. It is unclear how this pertains to Russian meddling in the 2016 election or if at all.
