here we know that evan corcoran has done a lot of coordinating with the doj. and yet it does not appear to be the case that he has the contact with the client that you would expect someone in that role to have. here is what you need to be able to do as the lawyer, if you are going to be certifying, for instance, that you turned over the classified material or their presidential reference material in your client's possession, then you need to be able to ascertain that from your client for certainty, and you can't be restricted in your movements or where you search. this is perhaps the worst-case reading, but boxes are being moved in and out of storage areas, before corcoran was permitted to search. someone, maybe the president, was going through the folders, removing material. it was only after that whole level of shenanigans that material was turned over to the doj. that is not any position that you would expect any lawyer and a functional team to be placed. >> and now that the attorney privilege client has been tired from corcoran and trump. i had to ask you

the doj was not caught by surprise, they were part of this. this is the same agency that allowed that to occur, people thought there would be immunity perpetually and now a special counsel when there are supposed to be accepts and congress involved and finding out what the doj was doing is key we need to find. this is a firewall. stop nature of what is occurring. >> harris: david, you are thumbing up to tammy, your quick thoughts? >> david: this is the firewall. another thing weiss can do is wrap everybody up into the investigation, which allows him to block congress as much as possible. i've said it, i'll say it again, the special counsel in this case was the best way to protect the path. if hunter biden and it is not about him, path to influence pedalling, who had the lever of power, his father, if you cuts the chain, then how do you get to the person you are selling? look, common sense without legal sense, they go together in this case. the only thing hunter, james, hahaley, anyone had from these generous people giving them money, only thin
