President Donald Trumps legal team is crafting a counter-report that will seek to delegitimize Special Counsel Robert Muellers investigation into Russian election meddling and present countervailing arguments.
Trumps personal attorney, former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani, told The Daily Beast in an interview on Thursday that part of his report would examine whether the initiation of the investigation was legitimate or not.
According to Giuliani, the bulk of the report will be divided into two sections. One section will seek to question the legitimacy of the Mueller probe generally by alleging possible conflicts of interest by federal law enforcement authorities. The other section will respond to more substantive allegations of Trump campaign collusion with Russian government agents to sway the 2016 election, and obstruction of justice allegations stemming from, among other things, the presidents firing of former FBI director James Comey.
Though this latter section will focus on the meat of Muellers investigation, Giuliani acknowledged that he doesnt actually know what Muellers findings will look like, making the act of putting a counter-report together a bit more challenging.

(18,837 posts)One of my favorite stories from days gone by is that the actor Tony Curtis decided he was going to launch a second career as a novelist. He delivered one book, and the reviews were not kind. One of the most famous ones began with "This stands as proof that if you give a chimp enough bananas, he'll type something."
There was never a second Tony Curtis novel.
