Trump transition lawyer accuses Mueller of unlawfully obtaining emails.
https://www.politico.com/story/2017/...-lawyer-299577
Trump officials discovered Mueller had the emails when his prosecutors used them as the basis for questions to witnesses, the sources said.
The emails include 12 accounts, one of which contains about 7,000 emails, the sources said.
The accounts include the team's political leadership and the foreign-policy team, the sources said.
The sources say Mueller obtained the emails from the General Services Administration, the government agency that hosted the transition email system, which had addresses ending in
*****“ptt.gov,"***** for Presidential Transition Team.
This scoop is clearly sourced from the dozen or so transition officials that have already been interviewed - most likely those in political leadership/foreign policy, since it's logical that the Mueller team would ask each witness specifically about their own emails. Many of these officials are known to currently work in the White House/Trump Administration. The thing is though, they clearly don't know what other emails Mueller may have... but if Mueller got their communications from the ptt.gov host, then it would be a safe bet that Mueller can get ALL of those emails (if he hasn't already done so already).
So... guess who else was part of the Trump transition team? Numerous GOP Congresspeople, including some on powerful House Committees:
Rep. Devin Nunes
House Intelligence (Chair)
Rep. Trey Gowdy
House Oversight (Chair)
House Intelligence
House Judiciary
Rep Cynthia Lummis
House Oversight
Rep. Tom Marino
House Judiciary
Rep. Dennis Ross
Sen. Tim Scott
Rep Marsha Blackburn
Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers
Rep. Tom Reed
Rep. Lou Barletta
Rep. Chris Collins
Rep. Sean Duffy
You know how GOP Congresspeople have been very active recently in attacking Mueller? I'm guessing that they've realized that Mueller's investigation has followed the trail to the point where he can credibly start questioning them about their own communications...
US Investigator gets emails that belong to US government: Not Ok?
Wikileaks hacking in and publicly releasing emails to alter public opinion of a candidate and steal election: Ok?
By the way...
Who was the director of the GSA when they supposedly "illegally" handed over Trump transition team emails to Mueller?
