A rift has opened in Donald Trump's legal team over how to respond to Mar-a-Lago classified documents case, The New York Times reported.

According to the Times, the rift was prompted by the Department of Justice telling Trump's team it believes he still possesses government records, even after the FBI raid in August which seized hundreds of files from his home.

Every politician and lawyer who advised Trump to cooperate with the enemy has eventually stabbed Trump in the back. Lindsey Graham, Ty Cobb, Bill Barr...

It seems like the FBI is looking for something very specific, and I doubt it has anything to do with "national security." More likely, it is something which they find embarrassing to the agency.

Five years ago, a smug and smirking Chuck Schumer approvingly said, "Our intelligence agencies have six ways from Sunday to get back at their critics." Everything since then has been a footnote to that statement.

Cooperate? In an irredeemably adversarial setting?

Not an option other than throwing the occasional used bone to those dogs.

Hey if someone “believes” something (not necessarily bad) about Trump, it’s time to peech him a third time.

New propaganda now that the Zelensky is God meme is backfiring.

New York Times?

It looks like a newspaper, but isn’t?

The NYT that for years on end published anonymously sourced stories about Russia Collusion we now know were false?

The same NYT that lied about WMDs in Iraq and started a war that got a million people killed and flooded the West with Third World primitives?

That New York Times?

Rifts (i.e., differences of opinion) open from time to time in almost all cases and on all legal teams.

This is gossip with a purpose, not news.

A rift has formed in the American colonists’ effort to gain independence, with Benedict Arnold wanting to co-operate with the British.

Just saying that as a lawyer, what Kise was advocating is absolutely how you’d normally handle a document dispute. Similar issues happen in civil litigation where one side accuses the other side of not producing responsive documents, either negligently or deliberately. So, you assign people to do a full search to see whether or not that is true.

The more they cover “Trump” the less they have to cover “Biden”.

They remain obsessed.

You cannot even have a rational conversation with these people so why bother?

They are either crushed at the ballot box or we are headed for a major national divorce and your guess is as good as mine what that looks like.

They have one truth. We have another. No middle ground remains.

Likely an infiltration of the legal team. I’m sure everyone is on Red Alert guard watch given the many betrayals of the past.

Big eff’n deal. One lawyer gives bad advice and is sidelined. What’s with people? There are consequences to poor performance, at least there should be. I guess all these leftists have no notion of competence or what leads to competence. Making mistakes without consequence means there is no improvement. Trump should be applauded for giving this lawyer the opportunity to learn from his mistake.
