If I were to post what I’m thinking I’d have the FBI at my door before breakfast.

Political hackery.
Multi-level Legal System [not much Justice involved there].
I expect that the FBI has already bugged the Confessionals in at least all the parishes that honor traditionalist Catholic values.
They must know this will boomerang.
The Bill of Rights is dead.
Change my mind.
“The privilege protects lawyers from having to tell prosecutors about confidential conversations their clients have with them.”
But it’s just this one time...
“But prosecutors can get around that privilege if they can convince a judge that the communications they want information about were made in furtherance of a crime — a principle known as the crime-fraud exception.”
Does not a crime have to be proven before it can be determined if there is furtherance of a crime?
If a perp embezzles a million bucks, the crime could be considered “in furtherance” until the money is recovered through a conviction. Will the perp’s attorney have to burn privilege and testify against his client? I think not.

The request from prosecutors working with special counsel Jack Smith is expected to lead to closed-door arguments.
AKA rigging charges judge Roy Bean taps box.
