Using this privilege is being asserted to cover-up on going be on obstruction and criminal activity. so why is smith doing that? he got burned in the edwards trial. and he figures let me get ahead of the curve, and access to what this lawyer cochran and trump have talked about, and i will utes the crime fraud exception, ladies and gentlemen this is an apuce of the crime fraud exception to attorney-client priv lprivilege. he has no evidence whatsoever. unless he has violated the attorney-client p...

Audit, and the leaders of the audit say didnt expect any money from trump. >> there are two things happening here. if you look at the subpoena for the lawyer and the crime fraud exception, i want you to talk about that for a moment. when you are looking at, hes moving about trucks. i know he has both investigations under his purview, which is the documents of mar-a-lago and 2020 attempted coup. but he is moving aggressively on both of these fronts simultaneously, and i want you to talk about the...
