A 'filter team' of FBI agents poring over 15 boxes of material seized from Mar-a-Lago has already completed its review of material that may involve attorney client privilege, and told a judge they would provide a more fulsome review of the material they removed.
That material, however, will remain under seal, following a federal district judge's 'preliminary intent' to grant former President Donald Trump's request for a 'special master' to go through the documents.
'The Privilege Review Team ... identified a limited set of materials that potentially contain attorney-client privileged information,' the government wrote US District Judge Eileen Cannon in response to her weekend order.

oopsie
they wont make any copies
they promise
Obviously the warrant did not describe what evidence items were to be seized. The FBI just said we need to see what he has to find what we need. It’s not supposed to work that way. That’s called a fishing expedition. The constitution specifically calls that as expressly forbidden.
Shouldn’t they know exactly what they have, because a general warrant and lifting of everything is illegal?
The FBI doesn’t care how many laws it violated. It went after documents and now has at least some and that is all that matters.
They are coming forward today with the news in an effort to get ahead of the narrative when the judge forces their sorry asses to divulge the information anyway.
ANY prosecution based on the raid is now tainted.
Oh, sorry. We didn’t make copies of anything though. No, really we didn’t.
The damage is done. The attorney-client stuff likely got copied and sent to Liz Cheney, Adam Schiff, and the rest of the J6 Kangaroo Kommittee to keep persecuting Trump. The FIBs raided Mar-A-Lago at the request of the J6 Kommittee, didn’t they, Comrade?
Did I get that about right?
“ANY prosecution based on the raid is now tainted.”
Not just for their (the gov’t) purposes, but that of ANY legal actions referred against Pres. Trump or his allies. What a waste of OUR money!
DOJ doesn’t care....for Trump the process is the punishment.
Looks like a major adjustment about to happen at FIB and DOJ to much to far to long a game nobody has won.
“ANY prosecution based on the raid is now tainted”.
That’s what I was thinking.
They took EVERYTHING. The warrant was scandalously and intentionally broad. So the FIBBERS could fish for whatever they wanted.
They were entitled to NONE of the documents and the “raid” was utterly CRIMINAL based on flimsy, vague BS lies to a hyper partisan “judge” who should have recused on Day One.
Nitpicking over which documents are valid legitimizes a completely ILLEGITIMATE action.
They won’t even read them don’t ya know.
Their Venezuela tactics are being exposed. The Dirty FBI agents make the other 2% look bad.
Biden’s Weaponized Banana Republic strikes again and yes, they stole the election! On top of all that Biden’s Weaponized Banana Republic’s policies have brought economic destruction worldwide.
2% seems rather high.
Is it a crime for them to possess even one privileged document? If so, when will the prosecution of involved FBI agents begin?
