Trump asks judge to block feds from reviewing documents seized in Cohen raid
Source: The Hill
Lawyers for President Trump wrote a federal judge on Sunday asking her to halt federal prosecutors from reviewing documents seized in Michael Cohen’s office and home, arguing that the Department of Justice cannot fairly evaluate the materials.
A trio of lawyers for the president wrote to Judge Kimba Wood in the Southern District of New York to request Trump and Cohen be allowed to identify privileged communications prior to a fuller review.
Trump’s lawyers – Joanna Hendon, Christopher Dysard and Reed Keefe – wrote that potentially privileged information was seized during the raid. They argue that Trump should be able to review those documents before a taint team made up of federal agents and prosecutors to ensure his right to attorney-client privilege.
“The President, the public, and the government have a vital interest in ensuring the integrity of the privilege review process, and the taint team procedure is plainly inadequate to the task,” the lawyers wrote, according to a copy of the letter published by Talking Points Memo. “There is, as well, cause for concern that a taint team could not evaluate Mr. Cohen’s files (and, in particular, those relating to the president) fairly,” they continued, arguing that prosecutors would be disinclined to see certain communications as privileged.

they're allowed to use as well. Trump's Lawyers (if you can honestly call them that) want to have 'discovery' over what Mueller gets to see and use. That's only fair, right? 
Maybe try arguing that a woman can't be trusted to rule fairly because women are the plaintiffs against Trump? I'm sure that will go over BIGLY! 
the Feds can look through all of Cohen's stuff all they want but they won't find anything; Trump hasn't done anything wrong so, no worries. Amiright? 
Next case please. 
Federal prosecutors are biased...givem to me. I'll be a fair and impartial
