BOOM! Great news for the Mueller timeline. Now things can REALLY start moving forward.
Flip Cohen, then Manafort (and indict Stone, probably others as well); write COLLUSION report b/f the Nov 6 election. #mueller #michaelcohen tinyurl.com/yb3u9tzf

1/ The materials will be determinative for Cohen in deciding what he will have to proffer, and will be useful for Mueller in assessing what kind of plea agreement might be involved in getting Cohen to flip.
2/ Note that the AP article mentions only the business dealings. This is misleading almost to the point of being fake news.
3/ Prosecutors are required to turn over to other investigators anything that appears to be materially relevant to THEIR investigations. So Mueller will get anything materially relevant to his Russia investigations. #mueller #michaelcohen
4/ According to Steele, Cohen and Manafort were the two central players in the Trump Russia collusion. So unless Steele got this completely wrong (most unlikely) there will be evidence for MUELLER in the raid materials. #mueller #michaelcohen
5/ Note, however, that the raid materials will be useful to Mueller in flipping Cohen on Russia even in the VERY unlikely event that there is only incriminating stuff in there about Cohen’s BUSINESS dealings.
6/ On Cohen and the Russian probe, see the remarks by Cohen’s friend Donny Deustsch on June 21. tinyurl.com/ybw278pu
