So? This^ does not answer my question, which was asked of another and not you. If you're going to take it upon yourself to answer for others, then you might want to first follow the discussion, eh?

Trump's legal team is there trying to protect the private conversations between Trump and his circle from being entered into testimony under the blanket of Executive Privilege and Attorney-Client Privilege, since Cipollone and Pence's aides have been subpoenaed to testify, and they are approaching the top of the food chain. They would have been in the room when a lot of conversations happened.
The problem for them is that the DOJ is a part of the Executive Branch which is investigating crimes by members of the Executive Branch. The DOJ can compel the testimony. That much is a given.
At question is whether Executive Privilege or Attorney-Client Privilege will protect conversations if the parties were involved in criminal activity. Most legal opinions I have seen say it will not. We'll see. The fact that they are talking to the DOJ means that they and Trump are preparing for him to be indicted and are trying to avoid having to plead the Fifth.
Yes, you should have been, but it seems you still cannot do that. I asked a question and you're tapdancing away from it as hard as you can. I guess I'll have to answer for you...the story does not say "Trump's legal team is going to testify", as you had stated, it does not even hint at it.
In other words no proof, and we’ve been giving it 6 years time.
I didn't say there was no proof. The January 6th committee aren't the ones that would file a case. That would be the DOJ. Again, patience, Grasshopper.
There has actually been quite a bit of evidence revealed. Now, whether anything is done with it remains to be seen.
