Trump lawyer: Mueller improperly obtained transition documents in Russia probe
Fox News.com ^ | December 16, 2017 | John Roberts, Alex Pappas

Posted on 12/16/2017 1:42:20 PM PST by Kaslin

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 and privileged communications.

In a letter obtained by Fox News and sent to House and Senate committees on Saturday, the transition team’s attorney alleges “unlawful conduct” by the career staff at the General Services Administration in handing over transition documents to the special counsel’s office.

Kory Langhofer, the counsel to Trump for America, wrote in the letter that the special counsel’s office is aware that the GSA “did not own or control the records in question.”

Not a crime, this is being honed to be a report to the congress in support of impeachment...the 4th amendment is lax in such.

To the freeper who said he should take a battalion of marines into the DOJ and NSA, please advise them to take m-60s, and a lot of gas so they can smoke them out and take care of them for good.

Mueller found nothing in the campaign emails, so he is hoping to find something in the transition emails.

If Mueller doe find anything in the transition emails, the people involved should claim it was just “code” covering up an extramarital affair.

I’ve been holding out hope for that. I won’t need to apologize to Sessions because I see a huge “Sting”.

Thanks.

If Mueller is so corrupt as to illegally obtain emails, then they are useless in his “investigation”.

Not true, they can be used in impeachment proceedings. They can also be used to trap someone into a proccess crime that can be used to intimidate them into testifying against Trump. They can also be leaked to the msm to embarrass the Trump Administration.

look-out for the name michael horowitz. he’s the doj inspector general.

He's an Obama appointee.

He's best known for whitewashing Fast and Furious and letting Eric Holder skate.

recent leaks on strozk, ohr and mccabe come from ig horowitz.

the field is being laid and the american public prepared for momentous revelations.

no-one has heard from bill priestap, fbi director of counter intelligence and strozk boss. why ? highly likely he is cooperating with doj investigators.

Fruit of the poisonous tree is an end product of an illegal search and seizure. In this case , THEFT of records and/or Official Misappropriation. Call it what is is. Sedition. This is stealing records just like Hillary stole the FBI Files.

Trump had no official status as "President-Elect" until after the Electoral College certified his election in mid-December of 2016.

Any illicit surveillance conducted against Trump before then was conducted against a private citizen who wasn't even a political candidate anymore -- WHICH MAKES IT EVEN MORE EGREGIOUS.

Mueller seems to be following the same rule book that got young Nixon impeachment lawyer Hillary Rodham fired, i.e., no rules. Any surprise that Hillary is the malignant force behind Mueller’s corrupt inquisition?

Disbar them first, have them sell their homes to pay legal fees, then offer them a plea to make it all go away. Flynn should be avenged.
