Michael Cohen's phone line was tapped - pdq - 05-03-2018

It is not clear how long the wiretap has been authorized, but NBC News has learned it was in place in the weeks leading up to the raids on Cohen's offices, hotel room, and home in early April, according to one person with direct knowledge.

At least one phone call between a phone line associated with Cohen and the White House was intercepted, the person said.

Remember that Trump called Cohen after the raid on his offices. Wonder what they talked about? Giuliani supposedly told Trump not to talk to Cohen any more after he heard about this little convo.

I can't believe that Trump's DOJ would order a tapp on Trump's lawyer's phone! Worse than Watergate!

Just in case you were wondering...

Former U.S. Attorney Chuck Rosenberg, now an NBC News analyst, says there's a high bar for having a wiretap approved.

"The affidavits are typically highly detailed and carefully vetted by experienced lawyers," he said. "In all cases the wiretap must be approved by a federal judge."

"This is an exacting process where the government must demonstrate to a federal judge that there is an ongoing crime."

A tap on a Mob lawyer's phone ? Quel surprise. Probably why he had 10 burner phones...

Geez! Why hasn't Newt been invited to this party?

Not the kind of phone tap to listen to conversation. Only who called who and when.
