Deputy US Attorney Robert Khuzami on Cohen's sentencing:

"His day of reckoning serves as a reminder that we are a nation of laws, with one set of rules that applies equally to everyone.”

FBI Assistant Director-in-Charge William Sweeney: "As we all know, the truth can only remain hidden for so long before the FBI brings it to light."

IRS-CI Special Agent-in-Charge James Robnett:

“Today’s guilty plea exemplifies IRS Special Agents' rigorous pursuit of tax evasion and sends the clear message that the tax laws apply to everybody." 😬

These quotes come from this SDNY press release from August 21. It was re-sent this morning from their comms office. justice.gov/usao-sdny/pr/m… SDNY will issue a new press release later today on the sentencing of Cohen.

Good morning from New York.

Today’s sentencing hearing for Michael Cohen begins at 11 a.m., and I‘ll be live-tweeting it.

As Cohen tries to avoid a lengthy prison term, we’ll see if there will be more revelations about “Individual-1,” i.e. Trump.

Thread to come here.
