Jay Sekulow: ‘There’s Nothing Illegal’ About Trump Jr.’s Meeting

RUSH EXCERPT:

SEKULOW: "Well, here’s the problem with this, and I’ve said this before and I’d appreciate the opportunity to be very enclosure on this with you. How did this all start? And that’s important here. James Comey had a meeting with the president of the united States where he took information about this private meeting with the president, put it on his government computer, went to his government office and decides after he gets fired to leak a conversation he had with the president of the United States to a friend of his, to then leak it to a reporter for what purpose? For the sole purpose of obtaining a special counsel which was appointed a few days later. So the basis upon which this entire special counsel investigation is taking place is based on what? Illegally leaked information that was a conversation of the president of the United States with the then FBI director. And that to me is problematic from the outset and I think that raises very serious legal issues as to the scope and nature of what really could take place. And I go back to the other statement, chuck, and that is, again, the meeting in and of itself of course not an illegal act."
