NEW: Michael Cohen pleaded guilty this morning in Manhattan federal court to one count of false statements to Congress in connection with “the Moscow project.” Prosecutors were members of the special counsel’s team, including Jeannie Rhee & Andrew Goldstein.
“I made these statements to be consistent with Individual-1’s political messaging and to be loyal to Individual-1,” Cohen said in court.
After Cohen stated his allocution, a prosecutor stood up & added that Cohen had also “minimized his contacts with the Russian government” to Congress, and that in fact Cohen had had a 20-minute conversation with a spokesman for the Kremlin. Cohen acknowledged that was correct.

SDNY just filed its brief in opposition to an effort to have Michael Cohen search warrant materials unsealed.

In its court filing, SDNY acknowledges "a grand jury investigation into Michael Cohen and others, which remains ongoing."
More from SDNY's brief re Michael Cohen search warrant material:

"unsealing of the Materials at the present time would interfere with this investigation, and would implicate significant privacy concerns for numerous uncharged third parties who are named in the Materials."
SDNY has made a separate filing under seal that it says contains specifics about the ongoing grand jury and law enforcement investigations it references in today’s public filing.

New: Here are the documents recovered from Michael Cohen’s shredder buzzfeed.com/jasonleopold/h…
When the Department of Justice announced that investigators had pieced together shredded records belonging to the president’s former lawyer, Michael Cohen, critics, legal experts, and journalists feverishly speculated about what they might contain.
buzzfeed.com/jasonleopold/h…
BuzzFeed News has obtained the documents, as reconstructed by the FBI.

The records are a combination of documents that prosecutors already had, notes about a taxi business, insurance papers, and correspondence from a woman described in court filings as a “vexatious litigant.”
