Jay Sekulow: ‘We’re Going To Be Constantly Evaluating’ Mueller for Conflicts

‘And if an investigation were to arise and we thought that the conflict was relevant, we would raise it without question’

RUSH EXCERPT:

SEKULOW: We have not raised it with the deputy attorney general yet. I will tell you this, that the special counsel’s situation, which is a bit unique in the way it’s structured, it’s not an independent counsel, it’s a special counsel, you have to be evaluating conflicts as they — as a matter moves forward. Remember, we’re not in an investigative stage yet. So, we’re not going to — I’m not going to start talking about individual and particular conflicts that could exist that would render or put us in a position where we would, in fact, raise that issue. But I will also tell you that as the lawyers for the president, we’re going to be constantly evaluating that situation. And if an investigation were to arise and we thought that the conflict was relevant, we would raise it without question.
