DOJ Seeks to Expand Executive Privilege to Cover Trump's Private Advisers
The Department of Justice has issued a memo suggesting that executive privilege could extend to President Trump's private advisers, a significant expansion of the traditional scope of this protection. Historically, executive privilege has been limited to the president and immediate White House advisers. The memo argues that privilege can apply to communications related to official presidential decision-making, even if involving private citizens. This move is likely to face legal challenges, as it could redefine the boundaries of executive privilege established in past Supreme Court rulings.
