Conservative lawyer John Eastman seeks to keep 3,200 documents from January 6 committee
CBSMAY 2022
It's no wonder that Eastman desperately wants to avoid having his communications come to light, but his new privilege claims are destined to fail just like his previous ones. He participated in what the judge has already called "a coup in search of a legal theory," and his unlawful actions must be revealed to the American public.
The documents in question all stem from Eastman's legal representation of former President Trump and/or his presidential campaign. Attorney-client privilege is sacred and shouldn't be tossed out for partisan gain.
