The New York Times reported Sunday, based on anonymous sources, that prosecutors have been focusing on more than $20 million in loans obtained by taxi businesses that Cohen and his family own. The material was sought because it’s suspected Cohen falsified some of the paperwork, the person said. Prosecutors were initially silent about why Cohen was under investigation. The president’s initial support for Cohen degenerated over the summer into a public feud, prompting speculation that, to save himself, Cohen might be willing to tell prosecutors some of the secrets he’d help Trump keep. Davis said Monday that he sees major parallels between Cohen and Dean and that he wanted to hear what he’d learned from Watergate and his perspective on what Cohen is going through.
