Allies of President Trump fear that federal investigators may have seized recordings of conversations made by Trumps personal lawyer Michael Cohen.
Cohen occasionally taped his conversations with others and would play them back for colleagues, those close to Cohen told the Washington Post newspaper.
Now some Trump associates reportedly fear that tapes of recorded conversations could have been taken by FBI agents during the raid of Cohens office on Monday.
We heard he had some proclivity to make tapes, one Trump adviser told the paper. Now we are wondering, who did he tape? Did he store those someplace where they were actually seized? ... Did they find his recordings?
Its unknown if Cohen did record any conversations between himself and Trump, but sources told the Post that Cohen recorded discussions dealing with both business and politics.
One individual said Cohen would play recordings for him of the Trump lawyer talking with other top advisers to the president.
It was his standard practice to do it, that individual said.
FBI agents raided Cohens office on Monday on a referral from special counsel Robert Mueller, Cohens lawyer said.

Arrest ALL Swampsters NOW. Honestly, I don’t know how DJT hasn’t had all of his patience exhausted by now.
It’s a race to see which one will happen first:
Arrest all the traitors
or
They take him out, and trigger God knows what.
“Honestly, I dont know how DJT hasnt had all of his patience exhausted by now.”
It’s a wonder. No one in the swamp has his back. I wouldn’t blame him if he walked.
Those that would illegally attempt to hurt our president and thus our country, putting our very lives at risk, should be treated as any other enemy.......after due legal process.
We will need miles of rope.
The whole witch hunt is about damaging Trump and the MAGA agenda so that the uniparty deep state can get back to their business-as-usual work of selling the country.
Remember when Hillary made one of her hatchet-men (was it Blumenthal?) one of her lawyers just to prevent him from being compelled to testify due to attorney-client privilege? Once again, there is one form of justice for swamp rats and another form of justice for everyone else.
Notice no one is even trying to investigate collusion between the DNC and Hillary and various PACs? Which are real federal crimes.
The seriousness of the charges vs no charge can ever be serious enough.
Apparently attorney clients privilege no long exists, I can’t wait until our side starts raiding Lib’s attorneys.
>> I wouldnt blame him if he walked.

Having had the “audacity” to challenge the Global Elites and their Deep State lackeys, do you think they would even “allow” him to just walk away now?
I think they have been so enraged that anyone has gotten as far as DJT has, in coming up against them, and exposing them, that nothing less than taking him out would satisfy them at this point.
If Goodness does not win, the world will be plunged into a darkness we can’t fathom. It is a “must win” for both sides. IMO, anyway.
Scary true, and to add to this travesty of justice the fact that Mueller kicked this case into NY for something to continue there against Trump, even after Mueller closes his Russia case.
Its just never going to end, even if Mueller is fired by morning.
The only crime Trump is guilty of is defeating the Establishment.
Remember there is the silent FBI investigation happening in Arkansas, on the Clinton Foundation / URANIUM 1. That should rope in a head or two.
Isn’t Trump’s lawyer suing FUSION GPS?
Assuming the investigators don’t have “accidents”.
Thumbs Up, Dude!
Forget the legal process////This will be prime material for leaks. Leaking taxes and confidential talk about taxes and anything that can harm Donald Trump. Maybe there are other women Cohen has paid off.
Well said.
The brilliance of our founding Constitution is, at its core, a Gentleman’s agreement that Presidents will not be Kings, Power will transfer peacefully and elections will be respected.
This attempt to overturn the results of a Presidential election by the political hacks within the Justice Department and the Democratic party (and their accomplices in the Republican Party) has already changed our system of government forever.
Every future President will now take steps to never be in the position Trump finds himself today. The Justice Department will be purged of all opposition party members and Department Heads will only be the most ardent supporters of the Presidents party. The Department of Homeland Security Secretary - who oversees the Secret Service - will be charged with not only protecting the President’s life, but also his Presidency, empowered to put down the very type of silent coup being perpetrated before our eyes.
Have you ever thought about the consequences constitutionally if the Secret Service decided to arrest Meuller, his staff, Rosenstein, and the FISA Judge on charges of Conspiracy to commit Treason against a sitting President of the United States? Before Trump, that scenario would have been considered pure fiction. Now it is a conceivable counter move to what the Justice Department is trying to pull off.
What happened to...
For a newbie, you're very productive and engaged, but that one niggling posting habit has caught my eye.
Carry on, and welcome to Free Republic.
Think leaks and blackmail of raided material. They must be duplicating hard drives and paper files as fast as they can in case a judge says they have to give it back ten months from now.
I thought the Qubists were keeping their discussions of the prophet Q's droppings on their own prayer meeting threads.
We heathen unbelievers aren't allowed to blaspheme there.
I’m not so sure that wouldn’t be the best thing to happen, at this point, as things at DOJ are out of control. Rosenstein is only proving he is Deep State, and Sessions looks that way, and obviously Mueller.
Mueller looking for Russian collusion only need look in the mirror. WikiLeaks posted last year on Twitter a copy of his travel information to Russia, and the approval to bring sample. He took that Uranium One sample to Russia for Hillary Clinton, while he was acting FBI Chief! This fiasco is a CYA project for Mueller!
The changes you speak of aren’t the worst thing that could happen for Trump, however, what are the long term pros/cons with that change to Homeland Security overseeing the Presidency?
