Did Anyone Not Expect This?

In a legal victory for former President Donald Trump, a federal judge on Monday granted his request for a special master to review documents seized by the FBI from his Florida home and also temporarily halted the Justice Department’s own use of the records for investigative purposes.

Right, did anyone expect a judge who was a long-time member of the Federalist Society and whose appointment was rammed through by The Asset and Moscow Mitch after the Asset lost the election to rule any differently? I guess in her court, if you're accused of carjacking, you can get a special master to examine the car and make sure that you get back anything that you left in the car. And she will do that because of the "reputational harm" to the accused carjacker if he's indicted.

I don't have a great regard for the judiciary. My impression has been, for a long time, that they are guided more by ideology than the law. This ruling does nothing to shake my opinion.

The only good side to this is that the GOP isn't covering the TOFF's legal bills for this, and there will be a lot more billable hours from this. He'll probably use his PAC to pay it, for Captain Bone Spurs doesn't like paying for his lawyers. But don't worry, the gullible fools of MAGAland will cough up for it.

    Best judge money can buy.

    Time for DOJ to issue warrants for the other trump hideouts.

  2. The FBI already did the work that the special master is tasked with when they sent in their filter team to examine the evidence before seizing it. This is just a delaying tactic.
