Trump's legal team met with Mueller's staff on day of FBI raids
6 ABC PHILLY ^ | 10 APRIL 2018 | ABC NEWS

Posted on 04/10/2018 8:51:29 PM PDT by Extremely Extreme Extremist

On the day FBI agents raided the home, offices and hotel room of his personal attorney, President Donald Trump's legal team working on the Russia probe was meeting with members of special counsel Robert Mueller's staff, sources familiar with the meeting told ABC News.

The Trump legal team had previously scheduled the meeting, which was part of a series of ongoing negotiations between the Trump team and the Mueller team toward a potential interview with the president.

One source familiar with the meeting described it as "tense" as the president's team had learned of the raid shortly before the meeting began, though it did not dominate the conversation.

Hmmmm ...

I wonder if they were looking for something that impeaches the work of Mueller and/or someone else associated with this so called investigation into Trump and was alluded to during the meeting?

The raid damn sure violates Trump's attorney/client privilege rights and should scare the Hell out of any practicing attorney with more brains than God gave a Jackass whether or not they represent criminals or stick to civil law.

This is an “IN your FACE” challenge by The Left, aka The Deep State, to Trump and a continuation of The Deep States coup de tat efforts.

I hope Trump holds his fire and handles this smartly.

Listened to Levin earlier talking about Mueller’s handling of the anthrax investigations. From what I was hearing, this guy ought to be sitting in GTMO rather than be any kind of “special counsel”.

Why didn’t Trump know about Red Rod’s ‘approval’ of the raid beforehand? Why doesn’t he monitor this piece of shit’s communications?

Now that the US attorneys and by extension the Muller investigation has access to all of Trump’s privileged conversations and correspondence with his private attorney Trump would be insane to talk to Mueller.

It should especially concern the U.S. Attorney General, Jeff Sessions! But, alas....Well, we all know where Jeff stands on civil liberties now.

Yes.

The current batch of sneak attackers is also a bunch of pissants.

Makes you wonder how FDR, Hoover and Biddle would have dealt with this sort of nonsense.

This is not America anymore. The marxist/democrat criminals mueller, Rosenstein, comey,Brennan etc. are framing and doing a coup against President Trump. His crime ? He has a R by his name and he wants to make America Great again.

The reason Hillary, obama ,mueller and other democrat criminals committed many crimes but are not even investigated is because the marxists/democrats have taken over the news media, the media, the federal bureaucracy, The federal reserve,the congress and practically every other institution in the USA.

The deep state, the media , Meuller etc. have one goal to get rid of Trump.

Even the Fed is acting politically raising rates 6 times since Trump became President.This is why the stock market is going down.

These unelected bureaucrats at the doj and fbi have more power than the President as they are framing the president.

All true.

POTUS has his generals and the American People.

He also has the sweeping powers of the updated Patriot Act. He has the authority to identify any and all terrorists and have them taken out. That is one area of CIA expertise...doing their work using a variety of methods, cancer, heart attack, etc., without leaving a trace. RIP Andrew Breitbart.

My guess is that at some point, POTUS will have to use his Patriot Act power to take out those he identifies as such, in order to restore the Republic. Other than that, it’s past pitchfork time, but at this point, I don’t think that will ever happen.

I recall when 911 planes went into the towers and one was headed to the pentagon.. sorry to admit I wish they had hit the pentagon instead of the towers.. this is awful to say... but tonight I’m so down about our government.. the damned dee and tangled hellish spot they put the President in... it’s going to take a bomb to get all that are in this olympic size deep state to get them all.

I am so tired of it all... news is off again here at my abode.. I can’t take any more of their tricks and laughing about it. What has he done to deserve this from all of the media and the left? WHAT has he done? they can’t ALL belong to the global order.. some are not big enough fish to belong.... just dumb and sheep following the devil to hell!

To top it off.. ole’ zukerberg today said he helped the left in the election!!!!!!! where are the charges? no need to investigate since he admitted to it.... but... he’s one of those headed to hell in a hand basket with the rest of them, isn’t he.

Sorry for the language... I’ve just HAD it with all of the crap that just keeps happening!!

One did hit the Pentagon, and you’re apparently on the wrong site.

So the raid WAS timed to intimidate other lawyers working with Trump.

Is he?

If there was someone in the military who had a magic button which could have made the two planes that hit the towers hit the Pentagon instead, he would have a duty to press it.

There were 100,000 civilians working in the Twin Towers alone.
