Justice Department asks appeals court to block Trump judge's Mar-a-Lago ruling
NBC News ^ | Sept. 16, 2022 | Ryan J. Reilly

WASHINGTON — The Department of Justice is asking a federal appeals court to temporarily block a Trump-appointed judge’s ruling that prevents it from accessing hundreds of pages of classified records seized amid the thousands of pages of government documents taken from the former president’s Mar-a-Lago home.

“The district court has entered an unprecedented order enjoining the Executive Branch’s use of its own highly classified records in a criminal investigation with direct implications for national security,” the Justice Department wrote in its motion Friday.

that prevents it from accessing hundreds of pages of classified records>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

President Trump declassified thise documents. NBC is so full of Trump hate yjat they cannot report the news properly.

The fact is that the documents seized were not only declassified, they are evidence of the treasonous and sditious treatment of a duly elected president based on political hatred. The Deep State wants them destroyed, including Barr who is also implicated.

NBC is crap. Its poison. Anyone who believes ANYTHING NBC writes is a victim of the usual “Russiagate” massive propaganda to whichi America has become accustomed.

I hope the Appeals Court DOES NOT issue a stay, because if the do, the said documents will likely disappear forever.They need t be returned to presidenty Trump. They are his personal presidential declassified cocuments destined for the Trump library.

Who here believes that the DOJ/FBI are not still accessing the information? What they are ticked about is that they cannot go further into the information and pull out snippets of misleading information to LEAK to the NYT. They also are now hampered by not being legitimately able to use and cite what they took to create new charges.

This isn’t about National Security. It’s about using this raid and trumped up claims to distract from the real problem - the National Disgrace that plays our current President.

It’s about using the info they find to indict Trump. With an injunction in place they are prevented from doing so.

The simple question to the DoJ is "what's the rush?" If their ducks are in a row, they will prevail in the end? Why the rush to deny President Trump his due process rights?

Oh, there is a mid-term election coming up that's likely to be a red wave, so due process rights be damned?

Maybe the DOJ has dirty hands and they want this over as quickly as possible.

Yup. They want to minimize the eyes on what they did. They didn't want the special master and now they're attacking the judge.

They know what they have, but they can't publicly use any of it right now. I suspect their hail-Mary play will be to leak the most damning thing and then use the eventual LAAP-dog media drumbeat to force the appellate court to reverse the judge and let the DoJ proceed.

A couple thousand years before Trump there was another great man who was hounded and persecuted in much the same way the swamp is persecuting Trump.

I don’t believe Trump is the son of God but he is a good man trying to do the right thing for his country by putting its people first but in doing so he threatens the status quo of a corrupt system and its gaggle of goons. This is beyond right vs left. This is good vs evil.

Since we all agree no one is above the law, President Trump has a right to due process. DOJ - what a bunch of morons.

NBC, do not forget, publishes every FBI leak , credits “sources” at the FBI.

meanwhile the leaks are the point to try and estroy President Trump.

NOT WORKING. If anything, it is increasing President Trumps popularity.That makes the NBC idjits “double down.,” so that they appear even more ludicrous.

No stay should be granted, simply because the documents had been declassiffied by the President, who did not need to follow any declassification process by the FBI, whose goal it was to disallow the truth about Trump FBI.DOJ persecutors coming out, really in order to cover up the illegal activity of the FBIand DOJ itself. Thats really what this is about.

Time for some God given critical thinking folks.

#1. There is literally no information which Trump took, which was ot already available from multiple Federal agencies.

#2. Every document Trump had in possession was declassified, completely unlike what HRC did, and likely what agent Obama currently has access to, and is acting upon daily through Biden.

#3. There is simply no chance the information taken from Trumps residence wasn’t immediately and very quickly digitalized, upon intake.

Anti-American weaponized agencies had all of pieces taken from Trump all along, so certainly before any raid.

As well, they have already leaked some of the details of what they have in their possession to WP, NYT, and a couple of their leftist media instruments.

The game here is lawfare strategy.

⚔ Think about this people. If Trump’s legal team were to file a FOIA for their own documents which were illegally taken, the DOJ will tell them it’s all classified, and or redact everything.

⚔ Essentially, (at least in theory), the DOJ has Reclassified what Trump previously Declassified. Now that Trump is no longer president, he cannot declassify the exact info. It Trump has copies of what they have reclassified, he is now in a trap.

⚔ Additionally, before the highly illegal and treasonous raid, the Uniparty DOJ Stasi had no formal cover for indictments charges, and arrest of Trump. They already had all the same documents Trump had in his possession, but they needed to further develope the legal cover strategy to frame Trump, by taking something in his possession.

⚔ If they hadn’t illegally raided and taken all Trumps documents, they would not have been able to develope the fraudulent criminal story for the leftist courts, juries, and citizens.

Taking Trumps documents was their cover.

Your missing something.

The risk to the feds. They believe the risk is minimal, so they have employed this strategy. The special review increases the risk.

The risk is that the “once declassified” and now re-classified documents, demonstrate illegal government activity. By law, the act of re-classifying them to hide the criminal activity is a crime.

Biden and Pelosi, NSA, CIA, FBI believe that since they have the power, they can once again hide the crimes. An independent reviewer puts them at risk.
