F.B.I. raided Trump’s personal lawyer, Michael Cohen

• Among the things that the F.B.I. was looking for when it raided the office of President Trump’s personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, above, on Monday: records of payments to two women who say they had affairs with Mr. Trump.

Several people briefed on the investigation told us the agents were also seeking information related to the publisher of The National Enquirer’s role in silencing one of the women, the former Playboy model Karen McDougal.

We’re following the many strands of this story, including the dangers to the president as investigators sift through his lawyer’s communications, Mr. Trump’s reported rage and his aides’ concerns that he will fire justice officials.
