1. Trump seethes, and the rest of us should tremble

From The New York Times: "The ranks of people who either gave Trump a sense of comfort and stability or sought to steer him away from his most destructive outbursts have thinned."

2. Michael Cohen has a big problem

From The Atlantic: "It takes strong evidence to execute a search warrant against an attorney representing a subject in a federal investigation, let alone the president's personal counsel.

3. Raiding Trump lawyer Michael Cohen is a stunning move by federal prosecutors

From CNN: "It sends a strong message that Special Counsel Robert Mueller's investigation has uncovered a lead suggesting criminality related to Cohen's law office probably unrelated to Mueller's Russia election meddling probe."
