Judge Approves Trump's 'Special Master' Request

[BWK]

A federal judge has granted a request by former President Donald Trump’s legal team to appoint a special master to review documents seized by the FBI during a search of his Florida home last month.

WASHINGTON (AP) — A federal judge on Monday granted a request by former President Donald Trump’s legal team to appoint a special master to review documents seized by the FBI during a search of his Florida home last month.

The decision by U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon came despite the objections of the Justice Department, which said an outside legal expert was not necessary in part because officials had already completed their review of potentially privileged documents. The judge had previously signaled her inclination to approve a special master, asking a department lawyer during arguments this month, “What is the harm?”

The appointment may slow the pace of the department's investigation into the presence of top-secret information at Mar-a-Lago, but it is unlikely to affect any investigative decisions or the ultimate outcome of the probe.

JUDGE GREEN-LIGHTS TRUMP’S ‘SPECIAL MASTER’ REQUEST

Not a surprise from a Trump-appointed judge. However, this won't affect the final outcome. What do you think?

Nothing happens. He's still going to be indicted, and we haven't even discussed his other crimes surrounding the Big Lie.

He mixed documents in with his wife's clothes?

You're sticking with that story?

Was he using wadded up declassified documents to help her shoes keep their shape?

You guys must have no sense of embarrassment at all.

Could the FBI not have taken the declassified documents out from under Melania's panties and left the panties?

If I were leading that raid, then on the next one, the last thing I would tell the agents before we went in would be, "Come on, boys! Leave the underwear alone this time, huh? Grow up, for Christ sake!"

Why were the documents there? You do know it's a federal crime just to have them at his home right?

 

[BWK]

That's total bullshit, Gene! When the Clintons left the White House they loaded up trucks full of the stuff they were taking out of there...some of which they were forced to return. Presidents have ALWAYS been allowed to take private papers with them! Bill Clinton had a sock drawer full of tapes that he'd taken from the White House. Nobody raided the Clinton home. They NEGOTIATED to get them back.

Stuff?

A move in the right direction.

Judge Grants Trump Bid for Special Master in Document Search - Breitbart

What direction? He's going to be prosecuted either way.

 

[BWK]

Agreed the DOJ and the courts have zero credibility at this point.

Why?

 

[BWK]

As a Junior Hall Monitor in training. It is my obligation to inform you this was just posted

thanks, Junior Hall Monitor with a whirly bird hat on

It's meaningless. Try again.

 

[BWK]

You know stuff was planted. We're talking about all the old Comey people still there...lol

If that were true, how would Trump know they were declassified? If they were planted, how would he know they were his?

This does not come as a surprise from a federal judge appointed by Trump and confirmed after he lost reelection by over seven million votes.

Unquestioned is the fact that Trump stole hundreds of pages of classified documents from the American people and carelessly stored them in his Mar-a-Lago resort.

NPR reports, "U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon has granted former President Donald Trump's request for a special master to review documents seized by the FBI from Mar-a-Lago last month, temporarily stopping federal prosecutors from using those documents in their investigation into obstruction and mishandling of government secrets.

"The decision was expected. Last weekend, the judge said she was inclined to grant Trump's request, and a hearing on the matter took place last Thursday. At that hearing, the Justice Department laid out its argument against the special master and signaled it was likely to appeal such a ruling.

"Cannon, a Trump appointee, cited in her order on Monday the need to ensure "the appearance of fairness and integrity under the extraordinary circumstances presented."

"The FBI and the Justice Department have become vicious monsters," Trump in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania on Saturday campaigning for Doug Mastriano.

Trump thinks he won the 2020 election. Mastriano agrees with them. Both are challenging the very basis of American democracy, free and fair elections. Has Trump's federal judge misplaced her sentiments?

Furthermore, Cannon's order contradicts itself here.

NPR continued, "The judge also ordered the government to cease any review or use of the materials for its criminal investigation until the special master review is completed, but Cannon said the intelligence community may continue its review to determine potential national security risks (created by Trump's theft) from the classified material being kept outside of a secure government facility."

"Cannon set a deadline of Fri. Sept. 9 for the two parties to submit a joint filing with a list of proposed candidates to be named special master and a detailed proposal to establish the duties and limits of the special master, as well as a schedule for the review and compensation.

Legal experts have said that requesting a special master is another attempt from Trump to undermine the work of the Justice Department and question their integrity.

It seems apparent that Trump's judge doesn't trust the DOJ. Strangely enough, she apparently trusts Trump more.

Did Cannon just make a very bad career move?

 

[BWK]

Not there Ninny. Where they've been for a month.

You sure love your laughing faggot emojies eh?

You blew right by that argument because you have none. What a loser.

NPR reports, "U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon has granted former President Donald Trump's request for a special master to review documents seized by the FBI from Mar-a-Lago last month, temporarily stopping federal prosecutors from using those documents in their investigation into obstruction and mishandling of government secrets.

Trump stole hundreds of classified documents from the American people. Because the theft created a national security threat, the DOJ conducted a warranted search of Mar-a-Lago to return the documents to a secure location while they conducted an investigation of possible crimes, improper conduct of classified documents, espionage, and obstruction of justice topping the list.

It appears that the federal judge appointed by Trump thought it was important to protect Trump from the DOJ, citing "bias" and "leaks to the media," even though it was Trump who unleashed the media storm regarding the search.

To protect the accused (in this case, Trump), witnesses, and investigation techniques, the DOJ avoids publicity in its investigations.

Trump blew such secrecy all to hell. The judge didn't know that.

This is the man the federal judge wants to protect from the excesses of the DOJ.

ABC reports, "In his first rally since the FBI searched his Mar-a-Lago home last month, former President Donald Trump took the stage in Pennsylvania for nearly two hours during which he responded to the raid on his home last month and President Joe Biden's remarks earlier this week."

"The shameful raid and break-in of my home Mar-a-Lago was a travesty of justice," Trump said of the search. "The FBI and the Justice Department have become vicious monsters."

ABC continued, "Trump's rally also comes as fallout continues from the Aug. 8 FBI search at his Mar-a-Lago estate, where agents recovered classified documents as part of an investigation into his handling of presidential records after leaving office.

Trump almost immediately launched into a response to the raid of his Mar-a-Lago home Saturday, framing it as persecution of a political enemy. He attacked law enforcement without offering any substantive response to the allegations against him regarding his handling of classified documents.

Trump also had words for our President.

“Joe Biden came to Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to give the most vicious, hateful and divisive speech ever delivered by an American president.....He's an enemy of the state," Trump said.

Our President spoke about MAGA Republicans who attacked law enforcement and a former President who stole vital documents from the American people and took them to his home.

Trump's vicious speech made little sense to anyone ... unless one was a member of his cult. Since reality is something they avoid, they loved it, and Trump was speaking to them.

"I don't feel he did anything wrong. I think that will come out in the end, but they just want to turn people against Trump," said Barbara, a voter from Mountain Top, Pennsylvania.

This is the man the federal judge wants to protect.

She's a yes sir boss judge for Trump, and a complete idiot.

I thought it was innocent until proven guilty? But you loons are hypocrites. After the 6 year old Russian collusion lie, and the Mueller investigation. You have nothing but lies.

 

[BWK]

You took a dump.
You removed the waste by hand.
You dropped the waste back in the toilet.

Wait till we find out if any of this is true and how old and useless those documents are if true.
So far, we have been inundated with lies and LibTards are dumb as dog shit.

Which one is it? Wait till we find out if any of this is true, or, so far, we have been inundated with lies? You can't help it can you. Always tripping on your own lies.

Stealing classified documents is a federal crime alone. The man is already guilty.

 

[evenflow1969]

What the FBI must have planted in those boxes all these weeks. Should have done this at first. But there is a good reason.

Lol, so retard why did Trump declassify those documents if the FBI planted them? Also retard how did Trump know what they were going to plant in order to declassify them? Lol Old Trump boy must have ESP right retard? Hilarious what a retard.

 

[jknowgood]

Appeal! The only reason for the motion is to delay the process. There’s nothing a special master would add to the proceedings.

All we need is till November, then we can investigate what you loons have been up too.

Links?

 

[Seymour Flops]

Why were the documents there? You do know it's a federal crime just to have them at his home right?

The same de-bunked arguments.

What law did they prosecute Hillary under for having tens of thousands of classified (not de-classified) documents in her home?

 

[BWK]

Settled law, yes. But they will keep stalling by asking for more and more specifics of the exact quote from the supreme court decision saying it.

At the end of the day, he broke multiple laws. This is our defining moment as a country. We either choose to exercise the rule of law, or we let just the law be applied to the poor, and justice will be for the rich.

 

[CowboyTed]

What the FBI must have planted in those boxes all these weeks. Should have done this at first. But there is a good reason.

But Trump said he declassified them last week...

So you are saying that Trump declassified the documents he didn't know about...

Great...
