Mueller's office has confirmed in a new court filing that the FBI raid of ex-Trump aide Paul Manafort's home sought records off the June 2016 Trump Tower meeting. 
The warrant for Manafort's place swept pretty broadly:
Mueller's office defends the FBI's search of Paul Manafort's iPod (though "the government will not be introducing any evidence obtained from those devices at the trial").
Filing also includes a list of materials Mueller's office has turned over to Manafort's lawyers, including a July 2014 interview of his co-defendant, Rick Gates.
Our @big_cases bot has the filing:
Here's the other relevant bit: Mueller's office says all of the categories of information listed in the warrant, including info on the Trump Tower meeting, "must relate to the criminal offenses listed alongside those categories."
This raises a couple obvious questions: Which offense did Mueller's office say would justify a search for records on the Trump Tower meeting? And what was the showing of probable cause? (The warrant and affidavit establishing these things remain sealed.)
