President Trump on Monday renewed his attack on special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe into Russian election meddling and possible collusion — claiming that courts will discover his “unrevealed conflicts of interest.”

“The 13 Angry Democrats in charge of the Russian Witch Hunt are starting to find out that there is a Court System in place that actually protects people from injustice…and just wait ‘till the Courts get to see your unrevealed Conflicts of Interest!” the president tweeted.

Trump apparently was referring to a federal judge in Virginia who on Friday sharply questioned Mueller’s authority to bring tax and bank fraud charges against former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort.

US District Judge T.S. Ellis III of the Eastern District of Virginia said Friday: “I don’t see what relationship this indictment has with anything the special counsel is authorized to investigate.”

The judge suggested that Mueller’s team lied about the scope of the probe and was seeking “unfettered power” to bring down the president.

It was unclear what Trump meant by “unrevealed conflicts” — though he has accused Mueller, a lifelong Republican, of filling his team with Democrats.

In a separate tweet Monday, Trump also claimed again that his campaign had not colluded with Moscow and that he had not obstructed Mueller’s probe.

“The Russia Witch Hunt is rapidly losing credibility. House Intelligence Committee found No Collusion, Coordination or anything else with Russia. So now the Probe says OK, what else is there?” he tweeted.

“How about Obstruction for a made up, phony crime. There is no O, it’s called Fighting Back,” he added.

Last week, Trump told reporters he would “love” to speak with Mueller — but only if he would be “treated fairly.”

Meanwhile, the president met with his new lawyer, Rudy Giuliani, at Trump National Golf Club in Sterling, Virginia, to discuss his legal strategy.

In an interview with the Washington Post, Giuliani said Trump had “made a deal” with his legal team about the Russia probe.

“He stays focused on North Korea, Iran and China, and we stay focused on the case and we’ll bother him when we have to,” Giuliani said.
