Trump: Release the full affidavit! Trump’s lawyers in court: Meh.

 

"As a hearing began Thursday on whether to release the document in response to requests by news organizations, including The Washington Post, Trump’s legal team still hadn’t taken a position in court.

 

Conservative activist group Judicial Watch, which also pushed for the release, noted in its filing that Trump publicly supported the release of the document. But when Trump lawyer Christina Bobb arrived at the court Thursday, she said she was just there to observe, with no plans to file or say anything about the matter at hand.

 

It’s unlikely we’ll see the affidavit in anything amounting to its full form. Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart said Thursday that he was open to unsealing portions of it and has asked the Justice Department to propose redactions within the next week.

 

The government has argued, as it would in any such case, that releasing extensive details would threaten an ongoing investigation and the people involved in it. Releasing it would be highly unusual."
