I sort of feel like my head has been through a washing machine, but here are the flags in my notes:
1. Cohen testified that while he wasn’t directed to lie to Congress, he did meet with Trump/Sekulow about the testimony and the message he was to convey. So was he coached?

2. Cohen testified that the President’s lawyers reviewed and changed his written submission to Congress, specifically including the false part about the timing of Trump Moscow. He said Abbe Lowell reviewed the testimony as well under a joint defense agreement.
3. Cohen testified that his last conversation with President Trump is the subject of an ongoing investigation by SDNY. He said he had implicated Trump in matters being investigated by SDNY.
4. Cohen testified he has never been to Prague or the Czech Republic.
5. Asked about Trump’s deposition testimony that he barely knew Felix Sater, Cohen testified that Sater worked on the same floor in Trump Tower as Trump, and that Cohen himself took over Sater’s Office when he left.
6. Asked who could corroborate his testimony about Trump’s conversation with Stone re the Wikileaks DNC email dumps, Cohen said probably the special counsel’s office.
7. Cohen said he briefed the Trump family approximately 10 times on Trump Moscow, which seems to depart from Don Jr.'s testimony before the Senate that he was only "peripherally aware" of the project.
... some excerpts of what Don Jr. said. The line he's got the most risk on, seems to me, is "I wasn't involved." (judiciary.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/…)
