New details about the more than 100 Michael Cohen recordings seized by the government. Some are of conversations with Trump, others with reporters. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/im-not-going-to-be-a-punching-bag-anymore-inside-michael-cohens-break-with-trump/2018/07/25/2471797a-9024-11e8-bcd5-9d911c784c38_story.html

(22,020 posts)The government has seized more than 100 recordings that Cohen made of his conversations with people discussing matters that could relate to Trump and his businesses and with Trump himself talking, according to two people familiar with the recordings. Cohen appeared to make some recordings with an iPhone without telling anyone he was taping them.
A significant portion of the recordings is Cohen surreptitiously recording reporters who met with or questioned Cohen about Trump during the campaign and after Trumps election, the people said.
Trumps voice is on several of the recordings, but only in snippets typically when he is returning a call from Cohen or asking Cohen on a voice-mail message to call him back, the people said. The only recording in which Trump and Cohen have a substantive conversation is the one that Davis released Tuesday, according to these people.
Michael Cohen had the habit of using his phone to record conversations instead of taking notes, Davis said. He never intended to make use of the recordings and certainly didnt intend to be deceptive.
