Donald Trump and his lawyers sent a “veiled threat” to Attorney General Merrick Garland, NBC legal analyst Barbara McQuade argued on Tuesday.

In an appearance on MSNBC, McQuade, also a professor at the University of Michigan Law School, reacted to a court filing by Trump’s legal team in response to the FBI’s raid of the former president’s Mar-a-Lago property. In the filing, which requests a third party to review collected evidence, Trump’s team recounts a message sent to a Department of Justice official earlier in the month.
