Day 2 of Michael Cohen's Redemption Tour is over, and so far he has kept his cool, done what he needed to do and provided exceptionally devastating testimony about his former boss.

Cohen goes into great detail about the FBI raid on his home. He shares details, some known, some unknown. The raid began at 7am and synchronized to search his apartment, his law office and his bank. They confiscated two cell phones, other electronic devices, numerous tax books and other documents. They also took documents from his law office.
