A Judge overseeing the criminal prosecution of Donald Trump and his associates Thursday indicated he was open to allowing a co-defendant to access communications between the Fulton County district attorney’s office and the federal government.
Inside the courtroom, Harry MacDougald, an attorney for former Department of Justice official Jeff Clark, argued a motion seeking to obtain correspondence between Willis’ office and the Department of Justice as well as President Joe Biden’s White House.
During the arguments, Fulton County prosecutor Alex Bernick disclosed that there were previously undisclosed written communications between the White House and DA’s office related to the logistics of calling federal officials to testify.
Bernick’s acknowledgment is one of the first clear signs of communication between the White House and one of the state prosecutors against Trump, who has repeatedly sought to frame any coordination as improper despite experts who’ve noted that such coordination is commonplace
