It is interesting that if this was anyone but Trump you liberals would

What's next? Bugging the therapist's office?
The DoJ is clearly out of control ... again.



Apparently lawyer Cohen was not producing the requested documents. There?s
no privilege in a case where the lawyer is part of the criminal enterprise,
I believe.

No surprise you fellas are in the dark regarding the many criminal
enterprises of Trump and Son and Sons.

From The Washington Post:

We also know that a search warrant, unlike a grand jury subpoena,
requires prosecutors to go before a federal judge to demonstrate
probable cause that a crime has been committed and evidence of that
crime can be found in the premises to be searched. Before approving a
search of a lawyer’s office, a judge would want to be satisfied that
there was some substance behind the prosecutors’ allegations. This is
not just some prosecutorial fishing expedition; it bears the imprimatur
of a federal judge.


So it all depends on which judge is chosen, eh Krause?

not just some prosecutorial fishing expedition; it bears the imprimatur
of a federal judge.

This was not just any search warrant; that the raid took place at a
lawyer’s office further highlights the seriousness of the investigation.
Searches of an attorney’s office are extremely rare and are not favored,
due to their potential to impinge on the attorney-client relationship.
Prosecutors must jump through multiple hoops to get such a warrant
approved, both within their own office and at the criminal division of
Main Justice. (Notably, this would likely have included approval by
Trump’s own guy, the new interim U.S. attorney for the Southern
District, Geoffrey S. Berman, who was just appointed by Attorney General
Jeff Sessions this past January.)

Prosecutors are also required to consider less intrusive alternatives to
a search warrant, such as a subpoena, if practical. Approval of a search
warrant suggests prosecutors were able to demonstrate not only the
gravity of the potential case but also the risk that evidence might be
destroyed or otherwise go missing if they pursued a less aggressive option.

Cohen, and perhaps the president, will likely argue that this raid
violates the attorney-client privilege. Indeed, on Monday evening, Trump
said it was “a disgrace what’s going on.� In a search like this,
prosecutors typically set up a privilege team or “taint team� of
investigators not involved in the case to review potentially privileged
documents and shield those from the team actually involved in the
prosecution. There is an exception to the attorney-client privilege if
communications to an attorney are used in furtherance of a crime or
fraud; that could come into play here as well. And documents related to
anything Cohen did on his own — after all, Trump has denied knowing
about the payment to Daniels — are likely not privileged if they do not
contain attorney-client communications. Documents are not automatically
privileged simply because they passed through an attorney’s hands.

That is beautiful rhetoric but the reality is the US attorney knows
which judges will rubber stamp any warrant they seek.
As I said, if this actually bears fruit and it survives in court it
may be seen as OK but if they fall on their ass, it will be seen as
another abuse of the process.

Where are the Russians again?
It certainly looks like a fishing expedition to me.

I understand if Cohen comes out of this with a parking ticket, you
will claim victory. So will Mueller.



Federal judges do not have a reputation for rubber stamping warrants.

Maybe they should

Oh, and the U.S. attorney in question in New York is...a Trump appointee.

and you said all of his appointments were bad ;-)


Chris Christie, that paragon of virtue, says he is a “boy scout.� I assume
that is a compliment.

As much as you may not like Christie, he was a pretty good prosecutor
and his opinion is probably sound.

The way you sometimes handle your posts, your response doesn't show up
in a normal usenet reader.

Well so far yours haven’t, twice

This is just a Google Groups thing but it seems to baffle Harry.

I don't use google groups and I have no interest in learning about it.

It is just one more thing in a vast list of things you have no
interest in learning about. Maybe you really needed the structure of
college to get you to learn anything.
I am not a fan of Google in any context but that doesn't mean I don't
know anything about them. Unfortunately I don't know as much about
them as they know about me ... or you.

None of them seem to be about the allegations of election collusion

Are you again suggesting that if in the course of investigating one set of
allegations, evidence of other crimes are discovered, those other crimes
should be ignored?

And, again, it isn’t the sex...it’s the coverups and the possible
violations of laws right before an election. Try to keep up, eh?



A "payoff" to go away isn't illegal.

If there's a violation of a campaign law, i.e. using campaign funds
to make the payoff ... that's a possible violation, although a minor one.

BTW ... With regard to the Russian oligarch who you recently pointed out
made a $150K donation to the Trump campaign ... you neglected to point
out that the same Russian oligarch made a $25 million donation to the
Clinton Foundation while Hillary was Sec of State.
