Federal prosecutors ask Trump Organization for records related to Stormy Daniels: report
Source: The Hill
Federal prosecutors have requested records from the Trump Organization connected to a payment from President Trump's personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, to adult film actress Stormy Daniels, The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday.
The request reportedly is tied to the FBI raid of Cohen's office on Monday, which resulted the seizure of emails, tax documents, and records related to his payment to Daniels. She has claimed the payment, made just before the 2016 election, was hush money to prevent her from speaking out about her alleged affair with Trump in 2006.

Ryan characterized the search as "completely inappropriate and unnecessary."
