Judge Aileen Cannon has rejected the DOJ motion to stay her previous order and appointed a special master, Judge Raymond J Dearie, Senior United States District Judge for the Eastern District of New York, [pdf of Ruling HERE]
As to the dispute of the 100 “classified” documents, Judge Cannon writes, “the Court does not find it appropriate to accept the Government’s conclusions on these important and disputed issues without further review by a neutral third party in an expedited and orderly fashion.”
Judge Cannon urged Special Master Raymond Dearie to complete his review by Nov. 30, 2022, more than a month longer than DOJ requested. However, she did say Trump’s legal team has to pay the full cost of the special master. [Full Ruling Pdf Here] In a signed filing, Judge Dearie accepted the task.
(Politico) – […] [Cannon] also said that DOJ was free to brief “Congressional leaders with intelligence oversight responsibilities” on the seized materials and from using the seized materials to conduct security assessments.
Cannon’s ruling denying the Justice Department’s stay makes clear she simply did not buy prosecutors’ argument that there was no way to allow an intelligence community review of the national security impact of the presence of the information at Mar-a-Lago to proceed, while temporarily putting the criminal investigation on hold.
“The Government’s submissions, read collectively, do not firmly maintain that the described processes are inextricably intertwined, and instead rely heavily on hypothetical scenarios and generalized explanations that do not establish irreparable injury,” she wrote.
However, the judge also emphasized that she was giving Justice Department personnel some leeway to participate in the national security assessment even as she maintains her order blocking the use of any of the documents in the criminal probe.
“To the extent that the Security Assessments truly are, in fact, inextricable from criminal investigative use of the seized materials, the Court makes clear that the September 5 Order does not enjoin the Government from taking actions necessary for the Security Assessments,” she wrote. (more)
President Trump declassified the documents showing the corrupt DOJ and FBI targeting operation of him. The corrupt DOJ and FBI went and took back the evidence against them in the Mar-a-Lago raid and now says no one should be allowed to see it.
Everything is becoming increasingly transparent.
Overlay the Durham probe and you discover, the govt people responsible for illegally targeting Trump are the same govt people responsible for investigating the illegal Trump targeting.
We keep watching….
I do believe the end game of the DOJ/FIB NSD is to indict Trump and incite another J6. But Judge Cannon just made that a little more difficult to do. A small but important victory and very canny decision by Judge Cannon.
Incite one? More like fake one.
Correct interpretation.
Trump will be indicted despite the Mar-a-Lago fiasco, which is just a sideshow to the larger issues being investigated like “conspiracy to defraud blah blah blah”. Latest D.C. Grand Jury is looking into the Save America PAC, it’s proceeds being used to buttress “the Big Lie fraud”, etc. etc. The industrial-size fishing net of subpoenas the other day is telling. It seems Lawfare is most effective when it operates in the shadows of technicalities.
Yet no one within the GOP ever attempts such things against the Democrats.
Because the “GOP” are nothing but Devilrats pretending to be conservative.
GOP/RNC types are eunuchs in the Court of Nancy.
Davos Uniparty ultimately protects itself at all costs
They’re shy about those details.
I don’t have a crystal ball, so I don’t know that PDJT will be indicted.
From my perspective, it would be the dumbest move of the DOJ if they do go down that road.
Wouldn’t an indictment of Trump provide evidence Trump would use for self-defense? Wouldn’t this evidence provide what is necessary to indict the “Bad Guys”?
When the last card is played, Trump will either lay out all his cards or “make a deal if he has to. I don’t think he can lose either way. Just saying.
It gives us something small to smile about
Our one job is to never give them another Jan 6th. We do that, and we win.
Agree, Robert.
The lefties want a violent act to employ in their propaganda apparatus.
We need to stay focused on the 8th of November.
The hard part is to avoid being accused of the one they create on their own.
Agree.
🤞 some light is shed and some more sheeple wake-up.
I hope both judges prove to be shrewd and make sure justice prevails.
These days you have to be brave to put judge and justice in the same sentence. I used to not be so cynical. 🤷🏽♀️
I say, “Hallelujah:
and thank you, Sundance – for keeping us apprised!
DOJ will immediately appeal to a court they know will give them what they want.
Media will clutch pearls.
And lie for the DOJ.
Can the Special Master actually DO anything if indeed these documents are everything Sundance says they are?
Sundance is rarely wrong.
Is the judge who is to be the Special Master compromised in any way?
Will he knuckle under to DOJ pressure behind the scenes?
Will DOJ REALLY let him see *ALL DOCUMENTS* that could incriminate anyone in the fbi or DOJ?
Lotsa skeptical questions, but I’m enjoying the fact that a Special Master was appointed and hopeful that truth and sunlight AND THE GRACE OF GOD will bring out the wrongdoing Sundance has so often written about.
And that there will be serious consequences.
He’s the same judge that knows he was lied to by the FIB to get a FISA warrant to spy on Trump world.
Yep, Ret. FISA Court Judge Dearie signed the Carter Page warrant.
He was lied to.
Hhmm…I’ll see first. I don’t want to get my hopes up and be disappointed.
But did he know he was being lied to at the time?
Exactly.
It may be possible that when Judge Deere approved the FISA warrant for Carter Page did not know he was on Trump’s election team. I sense if the FBI could withhold that information, they would. Remember we are talking about a criminal enterprise.
Yes, the judge would have known that Carter Page was on the Trump team because the Steele dossier was the bulk of what was presented with the FISA application.
With that in mind, all of the FISA judges should have known that the warrant was targeting Trump, not Carter Page.
He only approved the last warrant after the other 3 had already been approved on the same information. He would have had to be informed of different information either on the warrant or otherwise to not have approved. He obviously was not!
Knows it even better the more he reads.
Crud, it’s such a crock that this judge seems to be continuing the incestuous fraud, with the same circle of complicit officials carrying on with the charade.
If he is a sellout black hat, being lied to by the FIB is not a concern, and maybe even funny to him,,, if he is pitching for the global/greenie/pervert cabal of satan.
The FISA court Judge Gutierrez I believe was lied to and gave a slap on the wrist to the DOJ attorney who falsified documents and submitted them to the court. My faith in the judiciary is on shaky ground…
You should have no faith. After 25 years as a lawyer I have zero faith in the system. That way, on the rare occasion it surprises me, I get to celebrate.
I hope you saw Robert Barnes and Viva Frei discuss the legal fiasco going on in a Connecticut court in an effort to turn Alex Jones into a pinata. This looks like an effort to shut down unapproved speech.
First Alex, then anyone the system does not like.
https://rumble.com/v1k6jk1-alex-jones-trial-day-3-recap-with-viva-and-barnes.html
Dearie signed the final extension. Collyer and maybe some other judge(s) signed the prior three. The FBI presented compelling evidence which if true would have supported the FISA warrant. I don’t fault Dearie for signing, how could he have known the FBI was lying to him? And why would the other judges sign if there were a problem?
But I suspect Dearie doesn’t appreciate being lied to and might be happy to be involved in this current case. He must know as well as anyone that Trump was abused by the FBI back in 2016-2017 and is being abused again.
I am hopeful Trump’s team selected him knowing that one or documents to be reviewed affirmatively demonstrate the FBI intentionally withheld relevant additional exculpatory information from the FISC, material that has not yet been made public or provided to the Court.
Judge Dearie signed the 4th Carter Page FISA

“And that there will be serious consequences.”
There will never be any consequences, a government does not hold a government accountable.
That’s our job and we’re terrible at it.
There can’t be any consequences if the Dems are in control of Congress. We only have hope if the GOP can take over, and that requires us voters to vote en masse to oust as many Dems as possible and get those crucial House and Senate majorities.
Vote we must but we must also participate in the other parts of our election process… Click here for details>>> Home – Precinct Strategy
On February 27, 2022, President Trump said this about the Precinct Strategy:
“The Precinct Strategy, as explained by Dan Schultz at http://www.PrecinctStrategy.com, is a great way to restore our Republic by transforming our Party from currently at less than half-strength at the precinct level into a full-strength Get Out The Vote powerhouse–as it should be.
‘Make America Great Again!'”
Please bookmark the above link and share often.
I’ll note that I have personally watched that false hope chased for over 40 years. The election precinct shame was all the rage in the 1970-80s libertarian snail mailers. It was the Goldwater, Perot, Ron Paul and Tea Party’s “secret weapon”.
You can not and will not change anything by voting. It’s a fools game that billions of dollars in propaganda are poured into yearly to keep people believing in a religion that doesn’t exist.
The government depends on you pulling that cart by chasing the carrot. Stop playing the role of Wylie E Coyote!
It’s nothing personal, it’s just that these scams have been around for decades and have to be swatted down for what they are.
If anyone offers the solution of “voting”, they are either intentionally manipulating you, or wholly ignorant the problem.
I agree with your sentiment. A good example is school board elections. As soon as angry parents started showing up at school board meetings & demanding their voices being heard on CRT & gender reassignment, unions demanded theDOJ/FBI treat parents as domestic terrorists. Yet, it is working to change school board elections to conservative members.
The RNC, under Ronna McDaniel, has continued to abandon purple & blue state Republican parties. Both McConnell & McCarthy are refusing to help fund MAGA candidates. McConnell in particular does not want MAGA Senators OR the Republican majority party in the Senate.
And then there’s Soros , Zuckerberg & other elites pouring money into races at the local & state level, in addition to the federal level.
That’s a false hope using a very conflated belief system.
It’s nothing personal against you but ya gonna quit buying the pro Republican propaganda.
There is no difference between Republicans and Democrats beyond party talking points.
Houston, we have the post of the day!
I remember President Trump say “We caught them” which means he had the documents.
Don’t be so certain they will get what they want. It is going to the 11th Circuit in Atlanta. This isn’t DC, NY or SF.
The US Supreme Court Justice overseeing the 11th Circuit is Justice Thomas (should the DOJ file appeal and it gets bumped to the US Supreme Court. There is hope.
The DOJ’s effort to prevent the special master from seeing the documents just failed. That means that they likely wouldn’t be able to have false leaks about what was seized, once the special master gets hold of the documents. So, if they were going to have a “let’s leak” effort until the election, this might have just put a stop to that. The special master is also going to hopefully give a fair hearing, so Trump gets his documents back. Also, the special master, being a judge, will be aware of the law regarding the Presidential Records Act, which gives the former president virtual control over his records.
We hope, and pray foremost that the judge now will conduct an honest and fair evaluation, and prevent the misuse of Trump’s personal information against him.
Is the judge compromised?
From All the King’s Men by Robert Penn Warren, ca 1946, the Kingfish is giving his fixer some instructions on finding dirt: “From the stench of the didie to the stink of the shroud, there is always something.” So go forth and find it.
Some years earlier in the USSR, their FBI guy (Derzhynski?) allegedly said “show me the man and I’ll find you the crime.”
Same line of thought between those two people. Dirt on anybody can be either found or manufactured.
Lavrenty Beria. A serial rapist and murderer before he, like Robespierre, was hoisted on his own petard (shot).
Let’s pray that the judge is not “Compromised”.
She’s trying to be fair and balanced. But why should Prez Trump pay for the Special Master? That does not seem fair to me.
It was his motion to hire a Special Master.
Not much of a surprise.
He can handle that, I assure you.
That’s like having a rape victim pay for her/his own rape kit at the hospital — something very wrong with PDJT being forced to pay for this. They raid his home, take things in an unlawful and sinister fashion and when he asks for his stuff rightfully returned they tell him we will have to have someone else look first and all on your dime and then when he decides you may get some stuff back, or not or you may be indicted . Sounds fair? Not! Let the FBI/DOJ pay (which I know is us paying) but charging PDJT is just so wrong!
I understand the stolen Trump passports have reportedly been returned, right?
So Garland’s Goons still have clothing, memorabilia and medical records that 1) No way in hell can be considered evidentiary in this charade and 2) Shouldn’t haven’t been taken in the first place.
Does this means that at some point between now and the end of Judge Dearie’s review he’s going to EMBARRASS THE HELL out of Dopey Joe’s Gestapo and publicly order these items be returned?
By now her panties have been passed around the cabal and each of the perverts in the cabal have cut a small piece off as a trophy.
You forgot the part where each one of them tried them on, being the wussy’s they are.
+10
Doesn’t the special master report to the district judge via a court filing, not to the public?
Correct, and it will be sealed and up to the judge to make rulings.
Judge Dearie will have persons or a staff working with him when he looks at the documents, won’t he? It seems that he will not be the only one involved. Who can say for sure that there won’t be leaks if that is the case?
Will the DOJ hand over the documents themselves or will they be photocopied by the DOJ beforehand and handed over in that format?? How will Judge Dearie know if he is getting all that the DOJ took from Mar a Lago?
The DOJ/FBI warrant redaction black-out could just have been hiding the fact that they wanted no one to know what they took and then they could play around with what they give to Judge Dearie, right?
Seems like there could be a whole bunch of shenanigans going forward considering how corrupt the FBI and DOJ have become.
We are having to deal with intelligence community power-mad crooks here. Silos of satan.
GOD Bless this MAGNIFICENT Judge!
If I had to judge based on the look on his face alone, I think he voted for Hillary.
US Judge Anne C. Conway and US Judge Raymond J. Dearie among the 4 FISA court judges who rubber-stamped illegal FISA surveillance warrants signed by Comey, McCabe and Yates to spy on Trump campaign
— Paul Sperry (@paulsperry_) March 2, 2018
… who was lied to and signed off on the illegal Carter Page warrant.
Ret FISA Court Judge who was made to look like a fool.
The judge who Trump’s team of lawyers put forth as one of two candidates for special master judge.
Plus the Judge was likely limited by the Security Classification Guide of the FISC from seeking redress or publicly discussing his feeling about lies. Also, it was not known the Dossier was a lie until 1-year later.
While select folks in DC are allowed to flaunt the Laws Regarding Classified Materials, I doubt the Judge is among the select folks.
Then there were the on-going DoJ and Muller criminal action in progress. I doubt any Judge would make a public comment regarding materials related to on-going trials or investigations.
We have the benfit of crowd sourced assessment during as well as after the fact that Judge did not have, to fair.
A judge the DOJ happily agreed to. And what did he do when he learned “he was lied to”? Um, nothin.
Excellent observation.
In an honest court, lying to the Judge would result in a sanctions hearing, severe sanctions, disbarment from the FISC, recommendations for general disbarment.
The judges who were lied to, with no woods file, who knew the warrant was against a sitting President via their 2-hop spying approval – did nothing. No attempt to preserve the necessity for veracity and honest dealing in the FISC.
The FISC Judges know they have an especially strong duty under the Constitution to acheive truthfulness in their proceedings, because theirs is like the secret British ‘Star Chamber” court which was a reason for the 4th and 5th Amendments, and the defendants are not represented by counsel in a public hearing. All of these judges knew they failed in this responsibility, yet did nothing to the perps in their Court.
Expectations are low, sort of like PDJT’s ‘acceptance’ of Bill Barr as Attorney General based on some deal that Barr would get rid of the mueller obstruction case.
#1. Judge Collyer & another opinion by another FISA judge a yr later issued severe admonitions to the DOJ/FBI that they clean house & stop the disinformation/lies & abuse of the FBI & NSA databases & demanded they keep the Court apprised of their reforms.
#2. FISA judges would be reporting these wrongs to Chief Justice Roberts. I don’t know if FISA judges can do much more than refuse to give any credence to someone like Klinesmith & refuse to rely on documents prepared by him or exclude him from any hearings.
#3. Due to how FISA courts were created & no adversarial element present, either in the pleadings or hearings, Courts are forced to rely on the “truthfulness” of the Affidavit’s & other docs attached to the FISA warrant applications. Rubber stamping is inherent.
#4. It’s up to Congress to make the necessary reforms to the FISA statutes. They have some oversight responsibilities. As long as both houses are ruled by Democrats, there will be no reforms or oversight of the FISA laws & regulations.
#5. There is no doubt that the DOJ/FBI have abused the FISA laws. The Uniparty doesn’t care because they know they will never be the subject of a FISA Court warrant.
What could he do? Um, nothin.
poor innocent judge, din du nuffin.
Looks don’t mean very much.
Look at Durham, looks like he’s a pitbull and he’s just a show dog chihuahua.
Chihuahuas have more integrity. Lots more.
pffft, he doesnt even wear and eye patch.
Strange side note: Fir the longest time only one picture of Durham could be found. Suddenly within the last two weeks when you type in his name there’s many more pictures of him.
Something is very strange with that.
Not strange at all, just censorship by Google!
Thank you for putting a face to the name. I will jump to no conclusions regarding Judge Dearie’s voting record but pray that he take this opportunity in his life to DO THE RIGHT THING. I optimistically (dangerous, I know) imagine that he knows that he and his compadres got burned with the Carter Page FISA warrants and is inclined to fulfill his solemn oaths and obligations. I also sincerely hope that he has grandkids and similar stakes in the long-term future of this country.
Judge Dearie was appointed by Reagan in 1986.
https://www.nyed.uscourts.gov/content/judge-raymond-j-dearie
Wow, there is hope. Judge Dearie born in 1994 is past the age of worrying about his career because of politics.
.
Also, no Ivy League ties or other so-called elite schools on his bio. Ilike it so far.
It’s improper to write “rubber stamped”. The FISC expects the FBI to be truthful. And in the case of Dearie, he signed the final extension, he was the 4th judge to sign. Why would he think there was a problem if the prior 3 judges signed?
Why the hell would anyone expect the FBI to be truthful?
If an FBI agent told me the sun was shining, I’d stick my head out a window to check.
The FISC judges do not conduct a hearing to approve or disapprove warrant applications. The defendant (subject of the surveillance warrant) has no representation in that process. The judges read the application and unless something appears to be in conflict or there is discrepancy in the facts as presented in the application, the judge approves.
Remember we learned via Sundance and the 99 page rebuke from Judge Collyer that the FISC approves 99% of what’s presented to it. The FIB ‘ DOJ know well how to be deceptive in FISA warrant applications and get it past the judges.
But the public revelations of facts AFTER the Muh Russia scandal was concluded (with the Mueller Report) likely gave the FISC judges information they were not privvy to when the Carter Page warrant application & renewals were presented to them.
The idea that a FISA judge could credibly believe Trump was a Russia spy is disingenuous.
The one check and balance didn’t and the rest is history.
IDK what they thought but they had to decide based solely on the information provided to them by the FIB. They’ve probably seen a lot of corruption but to the FISA judge Carter Page was not a public figure and otherwise an unknown person.
“Why the hell would anyone expect the FBI to be truthful?”
Or the prior three judges to be honest?
He would think “why do they need an extension on a spy warrant on a sitting President? The previous judges already gave them a limited time, now expired.” He would say “show me what you have so far. Lets see the pee pee tape you claim from this dechenko guy you swear to me about”. He would say “I have an extra heavy duty under the Constitution to protect the civil rights of the President. They are not represented by counsel here, so it is my job to protect their rights. So give me a list of everyone you have spied on, and what you have learned and saved from each of them. Who has been given this spy information from any of the people ypu spied on? And by tomorrow, give me a full and complete record of all spy information that supports the President or Carter Page being a soviet spy.”
That is what an honest Judge would do to keep the FBI and DOJ ‘truthful’ in the secret Star Chamber court.
In a perfect world, yes I would agree! But Judges are people too. What was put in front of him and already approved 3 times prior without additional info. Unless you have a very very suspicious mind or unlimited time, probably never occurred to him. Would it to most people if in a similar situation, I doubt it!
“We cannot disclose or submit any additional materials because this is an ongoing investigation.”
–Christopher Wray
Then an honest Judge with an admittedly heavy burden of protecting civil rights of unrepresented defendants, would reply:
“Extension Denied”
Because everyone knows that you have to assume your co workers are stupid and/or lazy and you need to do your own due diligence!
Not so sure about that. It is certainly a face that has seen it all.
IMO Judge Dearie doesn’t look mean or mad but has a serious face. I hope that he doesn’t owe anyone or anything to the Deep state!
Daily reminder Biden’s brain is made out of tapioca and every institution out of the swamp is corrupt.
Thanks for going through this crap and breaking it down for us, Sundance.
He was a FISA Court judge… remember Carter Page?… huh.. whodathunkit.
good to see you !
Judge Raymond Dearie was one of the FISA judges who signed the warrant to spy on Carter Page without cause.
Dearie, a Reagan nominee, has served as a federal judge in New York since 1986. He retired in 2011 and is now a senior judge on the circuit.
He also served a seven-year term on the US Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, or FISA court.
The Trump legal team is seriously pressing their luck if they think Judge Dearie is going to be fair in the Special Master matter.
It certainly is NOT a good sign that the communist-left approves of his appointment to the position.

Victoria Taft at PJ Media argues the choice of Judge Dearie was either brilliant… or a disaster.
https://pjmedia.com/news-and-politics/victoria-taft/2022/09/12/trumps-choice-for-mar-a-lago-raid-special-master-may-be-brilliantor-disastrous-n1628878
Yes, we shall see.
Completely agree with Victoria. Either this was brilliant and they believe that Dearie was fooled and lied to to sign the FISA warrants and will be pissed or it’s a disaster because Dearie was in on the whole thing and rubber stamped the FISA warrants because he hated Trump and wanted him to lose at all costs. My bet is this will be a disaster.
Dearie was informed a year later that the FBI had lied to get the FISA warrant. I can’t remember if I read that in a Sundance article or in a news article. But he knows the FBI lied to him.
I found it, it came from the OIG report. I posted a separate comment below.
The fact that Andrew Weissman wanted Dearie selected cannot be a good sign. It was a good stroke for Judge Cannon to put the report date past the midterms. I wish she would have put a gag order on DOJ leaks. I expect DOJ-NSD to do a threat assessment and it will be code red or whatever is the highest threat category.
What if Weissman really did not want this judge but thought if he praised the judge then he wouldn’t be picked? Convoluted I know but that is how these corrupt prosecutors like Weissman think
Dearie knows now the FBI lied to him. I don’t think he’s going to do the FBI any favors.
Just remember what Dearie’s job is now, he’s going to sift through all of the papers and determine which ones are personal or priviliged and which ones are not. I don’t have any reason to mistrust him.
Why are all these guys either from New York city or Washington D.C.? Seriously. You are supposed to be tried by your peers not people that hate you and that you have nothing in common with.
Oh, and I believe PDJT saw something like this coming and is a big reason he changed his residence to FL…….imagine if he hadn’t and this case was in SDNY.
Where’s the judge/special master from?
Brooklyn NY
You aren’t kidding!
Hope the appointed judge doesn’t turn out to be another Huber.
Or Horowitz.
Or Durham.
Or Barr, or Cohen, or Wray, or Sessions, or Wray, or Miley, or Comey or…….
etc.
I think it safer and appropriate under the circumstances of the last 30 or so years, to assume he is as woke and corrupt as all the others who have been exposed.
Ah. But if he is, who holds his strings?
Not saying that he is. He is probably pissed off aabout being lied to and made a fool of. Sure fire way to earn a judge’s eternal enmity.
Looking for one of Sundance’s lighter ready to light fire, early on in the Big Ugly days.
Only God can deliver us from these corrupt people.
What is God waiting for?
👊👊 Judge Cannon seems to be walking the walk.
This is getting VERY interesting! Well Done Sundance! Be safe out there!!
Page 5 of the PDF file appears to be where the scope discussion starts.
Disappointed…nothing or very vague on scope of special master just limits and injunctions placed while review is in progress by the special master.
By inference, the master will review privileged vs not privileged materials based on the language rejecting the DoJ’s request for stay..
It is not clear if the Special Master will assess justification for actual levels of classification on materials seized, especially the 100 documents referred to in the order as classified and having priority for the review. The DoJ’s primary effort is attempting to angle towards a technical and process charge related to the handling of classified materials, they will concede the privileged part if necessary.
…the approximately 100 documents MARKED as classified…
Judge Cannon writes, “the Court does not find it appropriate to accept the Government’s conclusions on these important and disputed issues without further review by a neutral third party in an expedited and orderly fashion.”
In other words “ I’m not buying your bull**** “
May this woman and her family be blessed for generations.
Never mind – I see my question answered further down the thread…
How does a judge tell you I think you lack integrity in a single statement?
“The court does not find it appropriate to accept the Government’s conclusions on these important and disputed issues without further review by a neutral third party in an expedited and orderly fashion.” Page 3-4
https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.flsd.618763/gov.uscourts.flsd.618763.89.0_2.pdf
2 1/2 months for 100 pages of declassified papers ?
There is more to review than just the 100 pages, if the scope includes assessment of classification levels.
The master will have to acquire all the documents defining the President’s Orders as well as documents linking orders to materials and completion of the process to orders.
Then prepare a detailed report and recommendation, supported by points of law.
It is no secret the objective of the DoJ is a criminal indictment and both the Judge and Master need to be thorough in their reports as well as decisions.
Pushed it pass the mid-terms.
My reading of the Judge’s ruling was that all items seized are subject to review by the special master; perhaps I misunderstood that. Do we have any lawyers here that could clarify that? Thanks.
It is WAY past election day. They can brief ‘pehaps” the dirty8, but if they leak, uh oh. It wasn’t clear on a first read how much and what specifically they can brief the dirty8. If there is a leak it will be recognized as a leak from them.
I think it is a good day so far.
Judge didn’t press charges for being lied too while being a FISA judge. Hell bury it all. Won’t see light if day.
did you use a magic 8 ball for that conclusion or just do a heads or tails. Or is it just snow blindness hmm. Some people just “no” everything about everyone, without knowing one damn thing personally.
or they formulate an opinion soundly based upon countless failures of the justice system in similar circumstances over the last 6 years.
Mike Davis thread …
Andrew Weissman freaking out.
https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1570559571072282626.html
I read it; it’s very good.
Everyone here who is complaining should read it also.
Mike Davis does a great job explaining what is going on. He was on Real America’s Voice (many times) and did emphasize that PDJT did have an excellent legal team and they know what they are doing very well.
I saw an interview on the Mark Levin show with (I think) was the Lead Attorney for the Team; (cannot remember his name), he was a former DOJ Prosecutor for many years. He discussed the politics of the FBI today, and Comey/Wray.
I think you can find it on Rumble; he was on last Sunday or maybe the week before; it’s out there.
After everything that’s happened over the past couple years, I’m almost afraid to get my hopes up. But at least for now, I’m gonna say this is a VERY GOOD development.
Take it as a Trump win.
At least Dearie is old, therefore it is highly probably that he was properly educated in history and civics in his early days and probably realizes the gravity of the situation America finds herself in. I just hope he isn’t for it.
If he has an ounce of decency and sense of duty he will use this to expose and destroy leadership at the FBI and all involved. If I understand correctly, he can even ask for charges to be filed if he finds illegalities that warrant same. Is that true?
One of you lawyers tell me if that is the truth.
Thanks, MAGA
Don’t know if this is good or not, Drearie was one of the judges that signed off on a FISA warrant.
Maybe he’s a good person, thought he was just doing his job, wasn’t in “the know” in terms of the details, idk.
I predicted back when the lists were submitted by both the Trump team and the DOJ that an insider would be picked, from either list, and Drearie is a D.C. insider.
How many times in the past have we thought, “Finally, justice !” only to be let down in the end. Hope for the best, prepare for the worst.
I need a vacation.
Comment of the day, Ahnold.
Was Judge Dearie on either list suggested by PDJT or Deepstate, er, I mean the DOJ?
Where have you been? You should already know that.
You haven’t been paying attention. Tsk tsk.
Your question bewrayeth you.
Uh, I work and have 20 employees working for me. I have an active daily life at my parish and to be frank, I dont live in my mommy’s basement. Life is awesome,,,try it sometime.
Low class snark, it’s definitely beneath you.
You were just on here posting several days ago and what you just asked was being discussed. You obviously weren’t so busy to post then.
Having twenty employees is no excuse for not knowing important details that have been out for the last two weeks.
I Pastor a church full time with four full services a week. That’s besides the many hours I spend counseling people in marriage, relationships, family problems and life in general along with all their spiritual needs.
I’m also the Principal of our very successful church school with 33 full time students.
I’m also the number one rated General Contractor in my County. I work construction full time on top of all my other responsibilities.
That’s besides the fact I’m a husband who makes time for his wife and a father who makes time for his kids.
The last time I’ve seen my mothers basement was in 1994 at the age of 16.
I’ve made my own way since then.
I think I know a little about living life.
I think you are frustrated, like the rest of us. Doesn’t give you the right to be a rude clown, so just keep your rude, braggadocios, little man self-justification to yourself. I’d bet almost everyone on here knows something you don’t Mr. Cool. duh. Oh,, and grow up.
Trump’s.
Great! Thanks.
PDJT’s Team had Dearie on their list.
Thanks!
Dearie was proposed by Team Trump.
Thanks!
How will the FEDGOV intimidate, influence, or do something worse to this judge/special master?
We await news of an accident or word that he finds the FEDGOV gets to silence every bit of evidence against the FEDGOV.
This judge will not personally review each document, so the real question is “Who picks his staff?”
John Durham just ended his ‘investigation’, according to latest newsflash. The timing seems more than just a coincidence, and at a glance, unfortunately, it may indicate tha they ‘have it in the bag’ now, with the appointment of Dearie.
I see it differently. If the Durham investigation is ended, there can be no obstruction charge if Trump releases the so-called classified documents, which he obviously declassified, as there will no longer be an ongoing investigation to prevent release of the documents to the public.
Interesting take, ( if all is true … )
Total BS!
I’m praying that you are correct.
Just think logically. Why would Trump put forward an retired Judge which he knows signed the first FISA Warrant? Do you really believe Trump is that naive? I trust Trump!
I trust President Trump as well, but so many of his picks for so many positions have turned out to be completely….untrustworthy. I pray this is not another one of them.
Look at it this way. McConnell was not involved in approving the “selection” of Dearie.
Why?
Why did he hire Sessions, Barr, Mattis, Kelley, McMaster, Mulvaney, and endorse the only candidate who could lose to Lt Gov Shrek in PA?
Only the best people, right?
Naive is way too kind…
Perhaps, but taking the other side is what a lawyer does, which I am not, but a debater so to speak, INTJ which is worse lol
What if he closed it because of what is in those papers the judge will have outside people see and a judge involved in the case previously. Durham perhaps KNOWS it will point at some “all” of his investigation. What he didn’t do, which many know, will become public.
Lets wait Shall we
We shall see. shall we. SHALL is a very important word in law.
Hmm
Note that is the “investigation is closed”. The Trial is about to begin and any of the seized materials cited as “evidence” can be kept from the public.
Plus, there is another gambit that can be attempted to delay or temporarily derail the review … BULL Durham or the defense calls Judge Deari as a material witness.
Being a NY judge is bothersome! Same old Schift from the deep state???
He’s from Brooklyn. I don’t know NY all that well, but I think Brooklyn is home to a bunch of old-school gangstas. Rudy Giuliani is from Brooklyn, and Trump knows this territory very well. My hope/guess is that he’s part of the old-school crowd.
It would be interesting to know if Rudy recommended Judge Dearie for the job. If not, I would bet that Rudy at least was asked for his opinion.
Judge Dearie is pushed forward by Trump for a reason, hes already pissed, being lied to, and now hes gonna see the whole kaboosh of the treason commited where he now will be a witness of he will be even more pissed.
PS : And in my opinion Durham has those same documents, so there’s that to.
Fact.
Judge Aileen Cannon and Gina Carano (starring in “My Son Hunter”) have never been seen in the same room together.
Cannon/Carano are similar names.
There are no coincidences.
“Overlay the Durham probe and you discover, the govt people responsible for illegally targeting Trump are the same govt people responsible for investigating the illegal Trump targeting.” – Sundance
Does this mean that Dearie is one of them? Are there any “govt people” for President Trump? Just wondering?
No it just means that it is an opinion of Sundance.
It was excellent phrasing, Sundance!!
I do not understand if the federal government has inappropriately seized documents to which they have no right to possess that the cost to assess and divide out those documents rests on the plantiff….could this not have been acomplished with a LEGAL warrant and legal representatives monitoring the search at the time?
Ditto.
Doj did this, define “legal” who has control of the JUST US dept. You’re acting “reading” law like we actually have a rule of law currently. It is not the judges job to decide what the Doj did or not do is legal. She acted on a cause of action brought before her. Nothing more imo
I agree but based on the outcome of the review, there may be grounds for President Trump to sue in order to recover costs, if it is shown the Government Acted improperly
Exactly.
No judge law or edict is going to save us.
The war had started.
We are awaiting the pearl harbor moment where everyone realizes it.
I’m glad she acknowledged that any release of this super ultra mega sensitive material has been done by the FBI in the form of leaks to the media.
there has been no actual suggestion by the Government of any identifiable emergency or imminent disclosure of classified information arising from Plaintiff’s allegedly unlawful retention of the seized property. Instead, and unfortunately, the unwarranted disclosures that float in the background have been leaks to the media after the underlying seizure [see ECFNo. 64 pp.9–11 n.11].
And another good thing was that she acknowledged Team Trump wasn’t able to determine exactly what had been taken because the inventory was insufficiently detailed and when they asked the FBI for details the FBI refused to provide them.
the Government seized a high volume of materials from Plaintiff’s residence on August 8, 2022; some of those materials undisputedly constitute personal property and/or privileged materials]; the record suggests ongoing factual and legal disputes as to precisely which materials constitute personal property and/or privileged materials; and there are documented instances giving rise to concerns about the Government’s ability to properly categorize and screen materials.
Furthermore, although the Government emphasizes what it perceives to be Plaintiff’s insufficiently particularized showing on various document-specific assertions, it remains the case that Plaintiff has not had a meaningful ability to concretize his position with respect to the seized materials given (1) the ex parte nature of the approved filter protocol, (2) the relatively generalized nature of the Government’s “Detailed Property Inventory”, and (3) Plaintiff’s unsuccessful efforts, pre-suit, to gather more information from the Government about the content of the seized materials
I think President Trump put private things along with his tax records in the same room on purpose knowing that the FBI would take all.
They didn’t count on Trump doing that and it caught them off guard.
Trump was than able to use that to further his rights in court.
Almost exactly what I said…information so classified the DOJ leaks it to the Post.
Let’s not forget that Judge Dearie was a NY judge for many years at the time that Trump was running his businesses out of NY. It’s quite possible their paths may have crossed on a social level and in a cordial manner. Maybe even on the golf course.
Maybe he even knows PDJT’s Sister, Federal Appeals Judge, ya think?
Dearie was the prosecuting AUSA for Marat Balagula, Boris Nayfeld and Aleks Zelster, so he has a very good understanding of the “Russia-Russia-Russia” lies the FBI/DOJ have been trying to smear Trump with. And (presuming Dearie looked over the “dossier”), he probably has some sincere skepticism about the FBI at this point.
I don’t understand why we are discussing these documents as if they are unique paper originals. Wouldn’t any important legal documents have been scanned, and their images stored, copied, backed-up and archived on an unlimited number of encrypted cloud sites and thumb drives anywhere in the world?
Of course. Multiple times.
#Attorneyclientprivilege
They know what was in the documents the FBI took and who took them, remember the videos that were never turned off. Now add the special paper.
Office security system – preventing take-out of confidential paper documents
In state institutions and corporations, a large number of documents are still printed and stored in paper form – including materials containing classified information. Despite the growing role of information technology, paper documents still constitute a significant leakage channel for classified information according to market analysis statistics. This office security system is a perfect solution for secret bureau where there is a need to protect confidential documents.
Copies of documents can be effectively protected against being taken out of the designated area. The office security system consists of 3 elements – special paper, printers or photo copiers with a sensor that allows to print only on this specific paper and detection gates alarming when paper is moved through them. This is a one-of-a-kind cost-effective solution that allows to protect printouts from being taken out of the designated area. What is important, gates detect documents made on this particular paper, even if they are kept in bags, folders and even wrapped in aluminium foil, which protects against unauthorized leakage of information.
The patented paper production technology provides a high level of security and good print quality. It provides a detection area between 60 and 80 cm depending on the amount of magnetic fibres in the paper and the level of electromagnetic noise in the environment. As a standard, there are two types of paper available (with high and low microfibre density) in A4 and A3 size.
The office security system operates in a frequency band of 200 Hz using a special EM detection technology. Electromagnetic gates show the highest resistance to shielding with metalized objects and some types of non-magnetic metals. Thanks to the 3D technology applied in the system, the gates detect paper in any position, included folded, crushed, cut or inserted between other sheets of paper, in a briefcase or in aluminium foil.
The office security system also gives the possibility of using microfibers and printing on “secure paper” to protect against counterfeit products (e.g. excise bands).
Interesting fact!
The counterfeit market is worth around EUR 423 billion and generates EUR 14.5 billion of loss annually in the European Union.
The office security system enables a simple implementation of additional security measures in the existing methods of authentication, e.g. banderol or excise marks placed on alcohol, cigarettes or medicines. The use of a unique magnetic marker makes counterfeiting of such a security element virtually impossible. Additionally, it facilitates a random and quick inspection of warehouses and stores using hand-held detectors, and an easy and quick check whether the product has been taxed/ is original or comes from an illegal source.

Thanks, Sir Francis, I was referring to the information, but you make a good point about magnetic-detectable documents, as well as scan-evident paper like they use for prescriptions. Take care
Sunlight is always and everywhere bad to the objectives of these evil people.
We’ll see about Dearie.
The FBI wouldn’t have had Clinesmith falsify the FISA app if all the judges were in the tank.
The great risk to the DOJ is yet another person gets to see information they want buried. That represents an unacceptable level of risk.
The DOJ’s string of court defeats continues. I don’t think they’ve got a prayer of winning an appeal to the 11th Circuit. And there’s a question as to whether it’s even an appealable ruling.
DOJ agreed to Dearie, do they can’t appeal that part. The 11th Circuit isn’t going to interfere with the stay on DOJ either.
It is what DOJ threatened to do, though, so we’ll see if they lied about that too. I don’t think the judge will forget that they threatened her.
A FISA judge? Seriously? 🙄
I would imagine it has to be a FISA judge, or someone with very high clearance.
Because the FBI cares so much about national security, haha.
Let’s say you’re Judge Deary and after the FBI duped you into signing a fraudulent FISA warrant against the Trump campaign, you get handed a Special Master case where that same FBI carried out its FIRST in history raid of a former President to get the very documents which detail their efforts to spy on said President.
Even if the judge is an old corrupt liberal, I love the irony. Making him look at it. Making everyone look at it.
Here we observe a Federal Judge properly “going on the offensive” against her Court of Appeals [Lawfare …] opponents.
Each of the three specific arguments which she now presents in the specifically-subdivided latter part of her document, obviously in anticipation of “appeals,” are each one perfectly reasonable. But she obviously realizes: “this means war.”
Yawn.
The Constitution does not give the IC executive decisions over intelligence….that would be the President , ‘ol buddies.
Alas for the State no exceptions are mentioned.
President Trump needs to take his salary when he back in charge. He is owed big time. How much has Jeff Sessions cost him because of his corruption.
“Coup Starts Now” Zaid
Perhaps she was simply picking her battles … choosing the most-defensible territory against a superior-court’s inevitable fight.
Trump was the executive branch lol She didn’t disregard him.
Mark Zaid, Esq.? Eric Ciarimella’s attorney? THAT Mark Zaid?
LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!
Nov30, 2022- after the mid-term
The court can’t be accused of interfering with elections —unlike the government and their weaponized agencies.
Didn’t Judge Dearie sign off on Carter Page FISA warrant? Also I was reading that Andrew Weissmann said that the “DOJ would be wise to agree to Judge Dearie on Trump’s list”.
Dearie’s FISA Court that was duped- may have a bone to pick or a need to cover up the duping with OBiden Regime.
Weissmann would know all about the duping.
