        The order addresses those 161 items. But, Wood also notes, "292,226 other items were part of this batch. These items have been produced to the Government and so any dispute over them is moot. For this reason, this Order does not address those items." (Those were not challenged.)

        Of the 161 items: - 143 relate solely to Cohen and his outside counsel - 10 are legal memos/letters from outside counsel providing legal advice to Cohen or a client of Cohen - 7 are emails to or from a client - 1 is an email about possible representationpic.twitter.com/UhFQjfrRpg

        I think it's just 7 items where he's giving legal advice and counsel.

        Wait so am I reading this right that the vast majority of the privilege claims aren't between Cohen and his clients, but between Cohen and his own lawyers?

        And most of those items it appears, and I could be wrong, but appears that those items considered privileged are texts/emails between Cohen and his own lawyer

        Please can anyone gain access to 💩DT💩 tax returns! It would end this national nightmare, with his impeachment or him stroking out. Either would be good for America!!

        So many of us want to think that his tax returns will uncover the smoking gun. But why would we imagine that the lying liar who lies about literally everything would not cheat on his taxes!?

        7 items were Cohen providing legal advice to clients. How many legit lawyers have provided just 7 documents worth of legal advice? Trump said attorney-client privilege is dead. Going by Cohen, attorney-client communication is dead.

        Does this impede the prosecutor's case do you think?

        No, these will not impede the prosecution. Privilged documents are comment and must be logged. Trust me. Special Counsel has what he needs to put Cohen away for a very, very long time. In the big picture, 161 documents out of hundreds of thousands of documents ... small potatoes.
