Fox News reported:

A Department of Justice “taint” or “filter” team has been pouring over the documents taken from Mar-a-Lago by FBI agents during a raid on former President Donald Trump’s Florida residence, according to a senior law enforcement official familiar with the process.

It is a standard process for the DOJ to use a “taint” or “filter” team to go through documents in a situation like this, in part to identify documents that may be protected by the attorney-client privilege.

Fox News has learned that process began soon after the search warrant was executed on Aug. 8.

Donald Trump sued the Department of Justice and demanded that the DOJ stops reviewing all documents taken in the raid.
