Is there a distinction in executive privilege case law between protection for documents and protection for former staff? Or anyone at all the former POTUS consulted?When the D.C. Circuit temporarily blocked the documents from being turned over, that was only pending #SCOTUS’s ruling on an application for emergency relief — the ruling we got here.

Trump’s petition to hear his appeal is still formally pending, but it’s now *practically* moot. https://t.co/IITg8Qkf7L
I can’t imagine what it would be, especially since you would want to question the authors of the documents, people named in records of meetings, etc.
If I’m right, all Trump’s claims of post-President executive privilege just fell apart.
