Showing Original Post only (View all)How the Special Master screwed Trump over. [View all]
https://www.rawstory.com/judge-dearie-bypassed-cannon/Trump demanded a special master in the court, and even went so far as to ask for Judge Raymond Dearie. After the DOJ agreed to Dearie, Trump's legal team is refusing to cooperate ahead of the first meeting Tuesday afternoon.
"Part of the reason Judge Dearie is doing this is I'm sure he saw what order he was given from Judge Cannon. I'm sure he looked at the filing and said 'enough is enough, I'm not dancing around this,'" said Moss. "It's really simple. Either you've got the evidence or you don'
He went on to say that he Trump will have to produce the affidavit that the documents were declassified to prove the documents could even be taken outside of the Oval Office, much less the White House.
It's the easiest way to prove that the documents aren't Trump's because there's no document proving it. The second battle that Trump's lawyers will have to fight to prove that Trump owned the documents, which will also be difficult since they were generated by the government for the government.
I don't want to hear anything else about Garland not knowing what he is doing because once again he gave Trump and his lawyers exactly what they asked for and it is going to bite them in the ass.

Seriously, someone can't just keep firing judges until they get the ruling they want.

This isn't judicially "screwing" anyone. In this instance, Judge Dearie seems to be appropriately
