Trump attorneys request meeting with Attorney General Merrick Garland amid special counsel probes
CBSN
Washington — Former President Donald Trump posted on social media late Wednesday a letter from his attorneys apparently sent to Attorney General Merrick Garland to request a meeting to discuss the ongoing special counsel investigations into the former president's conduct.
The brief letter does not explicitly state their concerns, but lawyers John Rowley and James Trusty wrote without specifics that their client is being treated "unfairly" and requested a meeting with the nation's top law enforcement official to "discuss the ongoing injustice that is being perpetrated by your Special Counsel and his prosecutors."
In November, Garland appointed Jack Smith as special counsel to oversee dual federal probes into Trump's conduct: one involving his actions surrounding the 2020 presidential election and the other related to his handling of documents with classified markings after he left office.

Robert Morris, founding pastor of Gateway Church, a megachurch in Southlake, Texas, has been indicted on five counts of lewd or indecent acts with a child, stemming from alleged incidents dating back to the 1980s, the Oklahoma attorney general's office announced Wednesday. We are aware of the actions being taken by the legal authorities in Oklahoma and are grateful for the work of the justice system in holding abusers accountable for their actions. We continue to pray for Cindy Clemishire and her family, for the members and staff of Gateway Church, and for all of those impacted by this terrible situation.
