Attorney-client privilege went from a sacred trust furiously defended by lefty lawyers to just another “common misconception” when it came to getting Trump.
After targeting Michael Cohen and Rudy Giuliani, it’s no surprise what the Clinton non-independent special counsel’s strategy was.
The two indictments filed so far against former President Donald J. Trump — one brought by the Manhattan district attorney, the other by a Justice Department special counsel — charge him with very different crimes but have something in common: Both were based, at least in part, on the words of his own lawyers.
In short, attorney-client privilege was once again shredded as it routinely is in totalitarian states. And with it, the Fifth Amendment.
It wasn’t all that long ago that the liberal legal establishment was attacking the FBI for listening in on chats between terrorists and their lawyers. Defenders of Lynne Stewart, who was passing messages to terrorists on behalf of the Blind Sheikh, claimed that the government had violated attorney-client privilege and the Fifth Amendment by catching her in the act.
Stewart’s indictment was described as the ‘death knell’ for the right to counsel. Meanwhile, Democrats repeatedly violating attorney-client privilege to go after a sitting and former president is no big deal.
Mr. Corcoran’s notes, first recorded into an iPhone and then transcribed on paper, essentially gave prosecutors a road map to building their case.
Of course, they were.
Why bother building a case when you can just read the other side’s notes?
That is how prosecutors work in China and Russia. And now in America.
Thanks, good analysis. That issue has bugged me for quite awhile.
Also, how are lawyers supposed to hide their misbegotten loot without attorney-client privilege?
“Attorney/client” privilege is meaningless to those Americans still terrified by the “unvaccinated.” Real tyranny is about to slap Lady Liberty. But all is not lost. Down the road, better men will pick up the shattered pieces. Grandma had a thousand sayings and this one is applicable: “A hard head makes a soft behind.”
So it turns out the USofA actually was too good to be real.
For any longer, anyway.
You see it’s like this. Trump is portrayed as the new hitler, only worse. hitler’s of course have no rights and everything is on the table to get him. Who would argue against that ?
Yeah, same argument as in “A Man for All Seasons”.
“I would tear down the law to get at the Devil.”
“Then what happens when the Devil turns on you, and there is no law to protect you?”
I am the Law 😉 – Judge Dredd
The LeftTwats have been proving their stupidity and criminal acts for over 100 years now. Remember the whole Russian Conspiracy case involved everybody in the government except Russia and Trump
Prosecutors? More like persecutors.
It hearts me to see the USA turn into a corrupt shithole worse than North Korea! At least with N K everyone knows exactly who they are. Also they are a tiny little ant compared to the powerful (albeit quickly less so) USA.
While so many Americans and others are asleep, the Biden administration is destroying America from within and quickly.
The playbook that leftist officials use in America is written by the CCP and Rusdia
There’s no “attorney-client privilege” for ongoing crimes. That’s what happened here.
True, if you define political disagreement as an ongoing crime
That’s what happened here.
Didn’t the Left used to care about attorney-client privilege? I suppose they still do for actual criminals.
If an attorney writes down or records anything at all that can be used or misconstrued, parsed or exaggerated into a crime then that attorney is responsible for not providing representation to the client. And if they testify to anything that harms a client, they are not providing a service but a disservice.
Therefore, if you are in the wrong political party or a hated target or friends with a hated target, you have no right to representation by an attorney….not true representation.
No right to a valid vote, no right to an attorney.
PRESIDENT TRUMP needs to hire a BULLDOG SNAPPING TURTLE , hell bent on leather, foaming at the mouth, and raring to go Attorney General and sick him/her on the LEFT! The left has established all these PRECEDENTS that can and HAD BETTER be used AGAINST THEM! No longer can they hide behind “attorney/client”! No longer can they expect to be actually charged with a crime before they are locked away for a few years! I expect a SCORCHED EARTH POLICY that will RID us of these devils once and for all! There’s no room for mercy – even the bumbling nitwit needs to see his last breath from a jail cell!
You don’t have two-tier justice system you have a two-tier reality system. The justice system is only where justices preside over how one tier deludes itself.
Not very gracefully but gracefully enough for modern standards apparently.
