It is indeed privileged. It should have required a court order to get their filthy claws on it.

And, thus, we have come full circle.
My local news this morning is “reporting” breathlessly, that Trump previously denied “this” but now “it’s” on tape!
Not just leaky. Proactively mockingbird along with the cia.
