WASHINGTON—A titanic legal battle looms following House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler’s (D-N.Y.) March 19 warning that President Donald Trump’s executive privilege claims on the forthcoming report of special counsel Robert Mueller were waived “long ago.”
Nadler’s warning came in response to a CNN claim based on unnamed sources that White House lawyers plan to review the report before Attorney General William Barr sends it to Congress. The review would be to identify passages to be excised under executive privilege.
