There's a claim that Trump's statements are preventing a fair trial. I read the article in question ( no link ), and I cannot find the tweet they are talking about. No information to support the claim. I looked at Trump's tweets, and I found nothing.
The matter in question is relating to an indictment concerning leaks. I read the indictment, so I am somewhat familiar with the case.
Actually, the impression I get is a bit different from what is being claimed, but this is our legal system. You have to be careful with that, but as far as I can tell, Trump hasn't done anything to jeapordize anybody's rights. I looked.
updated a little later:
I found an article that quotes a Trump statement made weeks ago. Again, my impression is different from what is claimed by the defendant's attorneys. But that is what they get paid for.

It is reminiscent of Clinton's denial of an affair with Monica Lewinsky. Clinton pointed his finger and denied it vehemently, but the DNA tests showed his semen on her dress.
Likewise today, the evidence is clear. There is no lawful basis for the Mueller probe. The Democrats are covering up a scandal of monstrous proportions.
Perhaps they feel that there is nothing left for them to do but to brazenly lie about it. Lying seems to work for them, somehow.
But that is not the whole story. Pelosi is accusing others of disloyalty. That goes beyond mere denial. So, those who investigate corruption in law enforcement are somehow traitors?
During the Watergate years, it was often said that the crime wasn't the worst part, it was the cover up. A better response would be a pledge to honestly look into the questionable investigative methods of the DOJ, and to suggest improvements that would stop this kind of abuse in the future.
Lest there be any doubt,
CTH has the goods on the Democrats. One post today discusses the indictment of a leak of this very same FISA warrant to a reporter last year. This leak was from a Democrat staffer, James Wolfe. The FISA warrant was classified information. That's why Wolfe was indicted. Even the recent authorized release was heavily redacted, supposedly because of national security concerns. Those who live in glass houses should not throw stones.
