There were reports earlier that Michael Cohen’s lawyers *might* leave the case, and it *might* be because of a financial dispute, but what the heck, let’s all speculate that this means Cohen is FLIPPING on Trump!!
Well Rudy Giuliani tossed water on that little fire:
Rudy Giuliani on reports that Michael Cohen may potentially cooperate with authorities: "I checked into this last night, it's not so. He's not cooperating. Nor do we care, because the president did nothing wrong." @IngrahamAngle https://t.co/XuQj2oOPCm pic.twitter.com/NmttfQctcD

Very interesting, especially the “it doesn’t matter anyway!” part.
Here’s what they were reporting earlier:
Michael Cohen, President Donald Trump’s longtime confidant and former personal attorney, is likely to cooperate with federal investigators, as his lawyers are expected to leave the case, sources said.
To date, Cohen has been represented by Stephen Ryan and Todd Harrison of the Washington and New York firm, McDermott, Will & Emery LLP, but a source representing this matter has disclosed to ABC News that they are not expected to represent him going forward. Ryan declined to comment.
A source familiar with the matter tells ABC News that among the reasons for Cohen’s change in counsel is a fee dispute.
Eh, this doesn’t seem credible at all. It could be any number of things, and as Fox News points out, he hasn’t even been charged with anything yet. There could be fireworks ahead, but this doesn’t seem like it.
