The Feds take a blowtorch to everyone around Michael Cohen as he prepares to flip on Donald Trump

Michael Cohen is planning to flip on Donald Trump, according to reports from ABC News, CNN, and NBC News. But there is no plea deal officially in place, even as Cohen has hired an attorney with ties to SDNY, seemingly for the explicit purpose of cutting a deal with the SDNY. Meanwhile, as this drags on a bit, the Feds have begun setting everyone around Cohen on fire – creating a very short window for them to flip before Cohen does.
------------
Once Michael Cohen cuts his inevitable plea deal, he’ll have to give up Donald Trump, as well as everyone he conspired with. That means David Pecker of the National Enquirer may want to hurry up and cut a plea deal of his own before Cohen’s deal is official. It’s clear the Feds are going to torch everyone who participated in the illegal schemes that Cohen ran on Trump’s behalf.
