OP
Just like if you work at "corp", the emails going via "employee@corp.com" are corp's property

Desperately needed at this point, a compilation video of Republicans saying the word "e-mails"

Yes, but the contempt would be a federal crime, so Trump could pardon that, too.

Unless transition emails show collusion during election or something similar, not sure

Clinton's lawyers delayed release of her emails, and for good reason. Lawyers don't want potential

Yes...I also think the collusion with Russia was discussed in those emails....

The clue is in the story. Trump officials were interviewed about the email by Mueller.

Trump officials discovered Mueller had the emails when his prosecutors used them as the basis

The very fact that they know who withheld emails and what they were about is a massive advantage.

And they were emails that the DT people didn't realize they had, because they weren't among those

I am not thinking either way. I expressed a wish for there to be such evidence.

Watching Joy Reid discussing this with her panel. Mueller would not need warrant.

Doesn't seem to violate 4th. Government records are almost as good as public.

I would say the 4th amendment does not apply when it is applied to federal govt in any form.

This is big. So what other big surprises has Mueller not shared? Not a lot of leaking going on.
