    If that's all the obstruction charges amount to it will be a big "nothing burger"

    Why would he keep any incriminating tapes, and not destroy them? That seems rather obtuse.

    It appears Cohen is a slimy type that liked to hold what he thought as incriminating stuff on people. Would share the tapes with people, including with trump. Appears that now has backfired on him (and trump).

    This is all Mueller let people know about right now. btw, Obstruction is likely to be one of many sets of charges. Betting that financial charges will also come (fraud, money laundering, emoluments to name three). Criminal conspiracy is another possibility (which may include the "collusion" charges).

    Na, he is going to use it to write a book after he gets our of jail.

    Cohen certainly does not appear to be a very bright legal mind.

    Who needs to have someone sign a NDA? Or even notarize an NDA?

    So much this. I don't think I've ever heard anything related to Cohen where I find myself saying, 'that was pretty clever!' It's just face palm after face palm. Even with Donald Trump, I will sometimes find myself giving credit for shrewd things he does.

    The government responds to Cohen demand to have his attorney review and filter all of the search findings...

    Comey's biggest regret in life was helping Trump win the election, you can bet on this.
