This will be my MICHAEL COHEN thread for today.
Cohen's lawyer just alerted the court that their claim in their sentencing memo that Cohen had paid $6 million in taxes during the years at issue in the case was wrong. It was actually $1.9 million. They regret the error.
Here's our @BuzzFeedNews story, from @ambiej, on Cohen's filing from last week —> buzzfeednews.com/article/amberj…
The SDNY US Attorney's Office and special counsel's office — the two offices prosecuting cases in which Cohen has pleaded guilty — are due to submit their own sentencing memos by 5 p.m. today.
BREAKING: Federal Prosecutors Say Michael Cohen Should Serve A "Substantial Term Of Imprisonment" buzzfeednews.com/article/chrisg…
I think we can NOW safely say that Individual-1 is Donald Trump, all.
NEWS: Federal prosecutors suggest three-and-a-half years of imprisonment for Michael Cohen, although they do not provide a specific time-length recommendation. buzzfeed.com/chrisgeidner/c…
NEWS: Mueller's office recommends no *additional* prison time for Cohen beyond what he is given in the SDNY case, saying it would be "appropriate" that any sentence for lying to Congress be served concurrent with the SDNY sentence. buzzfeednews.com/article/chrisg…
Cohen has met with the special counsel's office seven times, Mueller says. In six of those sessions, beginning on Sept. 12, the office believes that Cohen has been truthful.
Here is what Mueller says Cohen gave the special counsel's investigation. Hint: It's a lot.
— Information about Nov. 2015 outreach by claimed "Russian national" seeking to help Trump's campaign.
— Trump Org-related information about "Russia-related matters" from during the campaign.
— White House contacts from 2017-18
— "circumstances" of Cohen's misleading testimony
The SDNY US Attorney's Office basically says they're only supporting any sentence reduction for Cohen b/c of the help he's given Mueller's office. buzzfeednews.com/article/chrisg…
FYI, more evidence that you should be following @a_cormier_ @JasonLeopold @LoopEmma (and @BuzzFeedNews in general) for the real scoop on what's what —>
The Cohen filing wasn't just about Michael Cohen. And so I bring you ... A LIST!

Knowing how incredible Matea's campaign finance-related reporting has always been, it says a lot when she notes this part of today's memo from the SDNY US Atty's Office in Cohen's case —>
