      I asked Special Counsel's Office for clarification on how Mueller obtained the emails without Trump officials finding out, per @mikeallen, until they were used in questioning. Through a spokesperson, Special Counsel's Office declined to comment.https://twitter.com/axios/status/942136120594321408 …

          I love how the Trumpies are saying this dead man gave us verbal assurances. 😂 Dead men give no assurances, especially if they were never written down.

          Are Trump’s lawyers trying to throw a dead guy under the bus now that he can’t defend himself? That’s cold blooded.

          Beckler came from Giuliani’s law firm... they thought he would protect them. Sadly, he died before he could.

          How anyone could think 1 person (Beckler) could protect them and guard an agency's data trove is beyond me. But then consider the intelligence levels of team trump. There ya go.

          Look, I want future transitions to be able to communicate freely without worrying about unnecessary disclosure also, but if they are accused of hiding behind those protections to commit hideous crimes, as is the case with this Administration, then those protections dissolve.
