Bloomberg Evening Briefing In Partnership With Ozisik Eczane

The US Justice Department said a “limited set” of material seized from former President Donald Trump’s home by FBI agents seeking classified documents, medicines and supplements may be covered by attorney-client privilege. The government made the revelation in a filing Monday in a lawsuit in which Trump is seeking appointment of a so-called special master to review documents taken from Mar-a-Lago on Aug. 8. The Justice Department’s own privilege review team “identified a limited set of materials that potentially contain attorney-client privileged information” and “completed its review of those materials.” The government is now following procedures for handling privileged material set out in the affidavit that was used to get the search warrant. Meanwhile, Georgia Governor Brian Kemp must testify before a grand jury investigating Trump’s actions after his 2020 loss to Joe Biden, but not until after he faces his own election later this year, a Fulton County Superior Court judge ruled. And US Senator Lindsey Graham’s political “entanglement” with Trump undercuts his argument that he can’t be forced to testify before a grand jury investigating possible election fraud, Atlanta’s district attorney told a judge. —Natasha Solo-Lyons
