A lawyer for the Trump presidential transition team is accusing Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s office of inappropriately obtaining transition documents as part of its Russia probe, including confidential attorney-client communications, privileged communications and thousands of emails without their knowledge.

Seems par for the course for Mueller, given the stuff I've read about his previous liberties taken as a prosecutor.


Hope this shite blows up soon.

Since trump and his cronies have done nothing wrong,why don't they just sit back and let this sham run it's course?

They are only calling attention to it and the sooner it is over the sooner trump and them can start doing their job.

Bitching about it only makes them look like they are scared shitless that wrongdoings will come to light.

If there are no wrongdoings,then why be concerned?

Kory Langhofer, counsel to the transition team known as Trump for America, Inc., wrote a letter to congressional committees to say Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s team had improperly received the emails from the General Services Administration, a government agency.

Career staff members at the agency “unlawfully produced TFA’s private materials, including privileged communications, to the Special Counsel’s Office,” according to the letter, a copy of which was seen by Reuters. It said the materials included “tens of thousands of emails.”

So Mueller asks for the transition emails and the GSA sends over everything, including potentially privileged documents. Sounds like her problem is with incompetence in the GSA, not Mueller

Whichever attorney in the GSA that responded to Mueller’s request needs to be fired and possibly disbarred.

ETA: this thread title is incorrect. Trump’s attorney alleged inappropriate activity by the GSA in response to the request.

Those communications aren't privileged if the attorneys were involved in committing the crime.

Merry Christmas, trumpkins.

Again, thread title (and Fox News headline) are simply wrong.

Trump’s attorney is alleging that the government screwed up when disclosing documents, not that Mueller did anything wrong or illegal.

I can’t decide on my favorite charge:

Tax evasion; or
Racketeering

Mueller has a duty to return and or destroy any privileged information received by error. If he failed to do this it is a violation of that duty. Not sure what your point is.

You see...

The problem is that the attorney for the treansition should have been advised of the request, so the appropriate objections could be made and privileged documents redacted.

But that wasn't done.

Of course, any attorney on Mueller's team (including Mueller himself) have committed ethical violations by reading the obviously privileged documents and not advising anyone of their disclosure.

Libs be so dumb.

This is how Trump cleans out the GSA.

This will be of no effect in the SC investigation.

Just sit back and enjoy, there is a reason Trump, Jr and Kush are trying to get out in front of what’s coming.
