What would prevent them from ruling on the Trump "executive privilege" claim?
If they were truly concerned about our Constitution and our country, they would have done it already.
Many argue that it is a cut and dry case - the defeated former president has no claim to "executive privilege" in this case. He must turn the documents over to the Congress, the Representatives of the people.
The 1/6 Committee requested that they expedite their ruling but there is no reason to believe they will be in any hurry to expose their former Leader?
Today would be the perfect day to send it back to the lower court.

The only executive privilege I could fathom would be material unrelated to that occupation - corporate papers with copyrights or proprietary information unrelated to political office, or political information such as GOP voter rolls, methods, strategy - none of which has any business in the executive branch.
