Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein made the decision to turn over the case against Michael Cohen, Trump’s former attorney, to attorneys in the Southern District of New York, creating an investigation separate from the Mueller probe. Rosenstein did this to ensure that the witch hunt against President Trump continued if President Trump shut down the Mueller investigation.  A source claims that Rosenstein ordered Trump appointee, US Attorney Geoffrey Berman, to recuse himself from prosecuting the Cohen case, leaving Obama leftovers to handle the case.  Rosenstein has at least one major conflict-of-interest in prosecuting Trump as he signed of on a FISA warrant to spy on then-candidate Trump using the discredited Steel dossier as evidence.

Earlier this year Dirty Cop Rod Rosenstein made the decision to turn over the Michael Cohen case to attorneys in the Southern District of New York. Rosenstein did this to ensure that the witch hunt against President Trump continued if President Trump shut down the junk Mueller investigation.

Trump appointed attorney Geoffrey Berman recused himself from the investigation into Michael Cohen.

Rod Rosenstein approved the early morning raid of Michael Cohen’s residence. Geoffrey Berman was not involved in the decision to raid Cohen’s residence.

Rosenstein approved Mueller’s referral to Geoffrey Berman on Monday, April 9th. Rosenstein ordered raids on Cohen’s residence the following day. It is not clear why or when Berman recused himself from the investigation.

Bloomberg reported on the latest tactics to get Trump in the Southern District of New York.
Bloomberg reported:

Khuzami was put in charge of the Cohen investigation after the U.S. attorney who Trump appointed to lead the office, Geoffrey Berman, recused himself. It’s unclear why Berman did so, but he previously worked in the law firm of Greenberg Traurig LLP, which also employed Rudy Giuliani, a top Trump campaign supporter who’s now his personal lawyer.
