"Trump also took aim at the Russia probe led by special counsel Robert Mueller, who reportedly made the referral that led to the raid. " Thanks again Mr Mueller
The amount of backend work it takes to get a warrant on an attorney connected to their client is just about the heaviest lift a prosecutor will face in their career. I highly doubt that Russian sanctions had anything to do with the timing. This was most likely executed as soon as possible.
So it sounds like they don’t hold on to warrents when they get them. They execute them immediately. I’m curious, do warrents have a legal time limit on them?
That is a far larger legal question than your binary mind that looks for bumper sticker answers is prepared to handle. The privilege actually does apply even when the attorney is the alleged target and the government and the courts need to make sure that the approval of the search warrant and the execution of t is not overly broad and that the government does not use the investigation of an attorney as means of rifling through his files to find stuff on his clients who they may also be interested in. The biggest abuser of the attorney client privilege game is Hillary Rodham Clinton. When Cheryl Mills - who worked in regular staff capacity for Hillary- was called to be interviewed by the FBI, Hillary suddenly declared her as her attorney representing her before the FBI. And then, you will recall that Clinton/Podesta/DNC gave the money for gps/fusion/british and russian spies to her attorney and had the attorney hire the fusion/spy people- passing it through the attorney to be able to allege attorney client privilege when investigated. More to come on that little scheme. It was also a campaign law violation because she and the dnc hid campaign opposition research expenditures by reporting them as "legal expenses" just because they passed through the lawyer. Don't be so sure that that issue is done and gone.
