FBI Appeals Order Appointing 'Special Master' to Check Documents Taken From Mar-a-Lago
PJ Media ^ | 09/09/2022 | Victoria Taft

Posted on 09/09/2022 7:47:56 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

The Feds appealed a judge’s order naming a special master to cull through the hundreds of pages of documents, news clippings, and other items that they took from former President Donald Trump’s South Florida home.

On Monday, Federal Judge Aileen Cannon ordered a special master, which is usually a former judge or lawyer, to go through the documents taken from Trump’s office in the Aug. 8 raid. By Thursday, Department of Justice lawyers were back in court arguing that such a move would delay its latest election season investigation of the former president.

The DOJ and its gunned-up Hostage Rescue Team (HRT), “the Navy SEALS of the FBI” according to Donald Trump, Jr., ransacked the former president’s home in an audacious break with history and protocol. The raid presumed that the former President was not allowed to possess documents he had in his Southern White House office and SCIF at Mar-a-Lago in conflict with claims by the National Archives. The former president and his legal representative to the Archive, former federal prosecutor Kash Patel, say the president declassified the documents.

The FBI carted off obviously privileged documents between Trump and his attorneys, the former president’s passports, and tax and health documents. The passports were returned, but the rest seem like the wish list of the New York Attorney General and the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York. If the past is prologue, you can expect those documents to leak before the election.

Former President Trump said the FBI went through Melania Trump’s closet and their son Barron’s bedroom.

Both Trump and Patel believe that the FBI’s job during that nine-hour-long search was to find as many of the Crossfire Hurricane Russian “collusion” documents as it could find.

The president declassified those documents along with others pertaining to the FBI’s white-glove investigation into Hillary Clinton’s destruction of emails, phones, and other communication devices Congress ordered her to preserve. She was never prosecuted.

There’s news out that the FBI are already preparing to search other Trump properties for the documents.

Trump probably has them sewed into the lining of his suit.

its funny they would appeal something that would essentially prove that they are doing nothing illicit or shady. Maybe its because what they are doing is illicit and shady.

Of course they are going to appeal. If this order remains in place, then the FIB cannot arrest and perp-walk Trump before the Mid-Terms. The ONLY thing the desperate Rats have is the hope that such an arrest would make MAGA take to the streets in protest. The FIB would take it from there. Their infiltrators will foment gun violence, and then the MSM will have their footage of the lunatic MAGA voters to run 24/7 just before the Mid-Terms.

If the judge's order remains in place, the FIB and DOJ can't do anything until that is settled.

They , the DOJ and the FBI are afraid of what an unbiased jurist will,find.

They took President Donald J Trump’s tax document, health history documents AND PROOF the FBI knew all about the Russian SCAM.

DISHONEST TO THE CORE.

What a come down for a once reliable great organization.

The fbi is under orders to get Trump, no matter what. If they break the law or violate his rights, no problem.

I heard they also took his medical records and tax returns. They are clearly looking for anything the woke communists can use against him, outrageous. What ticks me off more than anything is even if this goes nowhere, the woke communists will bring it up relentlessly in the media and political campaigns and push it as truth to the low infos. Pure slander

They know Republicans will do nothing about it. Mitch McConnell can go straight to hell. Not one word from him about any of this. Let’s see the FBI raid his place, find all those documents of him and his wife taking money from China

The F_B_I never published the DECLAS prior to this point either - why? They were lawfully directed to do so and only sought to further cover things up.

In the article there is a quote by Harmeet Dhillon

https://twitter.com/pnjaban/status/1567736160990171137

“Special master appointments are not subject to interlocutory appeal, at least in the 11th Circuit. And when reviewed, it is only for abuse of discretion.”

Very interesting - had not seen that anywhere before.

Dems have the goods on Mitch, via the DOJ & FBI -— he sees nor hears anything unless they give him permission.

Yup - the same way they've pushed this whole Covid BS for 2 years when it should not have been a problem....but here's what they did.....

Decent honest citizens should be SO ANGRY!!

HONESTLY - THIS IS THE MOST REVEALING LITTLE VIDEO I HAVE EVER WATCHED - AND IT ANGERS ME SO BAD!

Info just released about “Ivermectin” - A drug that was lied about and stifled by our government, the MSM and the social media websites.... because it was extremely effective against the covid crap!!

A 14 minute little video that will prove the massive lies and the purpose for them.

They did not get the documents they were looking for because it was the unclassified crossfire hurricane Russia gate documents and Trump I’m sure was smart enough to vote had them at Mar-a-Lago
