WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Federal Bureau of Investigation on Monday raided the offices and home of U.S. President Donald Trump's personal lawyer Michael Cohen, law enforcement sources said, in a dramatic new development in a series of probes involving close Trump associates. Cohen's lawyer, Stephen M. Ryan, said that U.S. prosecutors conducted a search that was partly a referral by the Office of Special Counsel, Robert Mueller. Mueller is investigating whether members of Trump's 2016 campaign colluded with Russia during the U.S. presidential election. Asked whether he would fire Mueller, Trump said, "Well, I think it’s a disgrace what’s going on. "It resulted in the unnecessary seizure of protected attorney client communications between a lawyer and his clients," he said.
