U.S. DOJ grants Trump legal shield
The U.S. Department of Justice has issued a legal support statement for former President Donald Trump, affirming his right to protect his unofficial advisors from Congressional investigations and legal proceedings—even if they were not serving in the White House. It clarified that the president's right to withhold classified information, under the concept of "executive privilege," extends to his communications with his private advisors, provided that these communications relate to official decision-making and are kept confidential. This memo comes ahead of the midterm elections, which may lead to investigations against Trump's administration, emphasizing the importance of executive privilege in preserving his constitutional powers.
