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….
Beginning to wonder if some of those 100 documents that the DOJ appears desperate to keep hidden are documents that Mayor Rudi Giuliani received regarding the deep state’s and FJB’s use of Ukraine as their central clearing house for all the things ‘off the books’; the same reason for Impeachment #1 when PDJT correctly asked the new Ukrainian President to look into stories about FJB’s apparent illegal activities he was participating in that were based in Ukraine?
Seems like those documents would the the crown jewels more so than the government’s part in creating the Russia hoax and using Crossfire Hurricane to keep PDJT tied in knots during his first term as President.
Especially since all those missing servers that were in Ukraine (until PDJT’s inauguration) have never been located.
I just read an ABC story from August (and posted about it below), and if I had to answer your question about what the documents regarded I would say what Kash Patel said: Russiagate, Hunter Biden, impeachment, Jan 6th
Yes.. NOW WE ARE GETTIN SOMEWHERE.. LYIN THIEVIN SLIDEN HIDEN has been after those documents ever since he was installed. If we follow the trail of what I call BREAK INS and RAIDS, we see the pattern, of LYIN THIEVIN SLIDEN HIDEN attempt to uncover those given to RUDY, and to me anyway what they include are MOST OF THE DOCS pertaining to SCHIFF’s GUN RUNNING KABAL, PELOSI’s MONEY LAUNDERING, And much much more, including Clinton’s Urainium deals, CHINA’s and Russia’s deals with OBAMA, and his entire crew, AND LOTS MORE. There is one ambassador, that I think knows it all, he testified honestly at Trumps impeachment over the call, ALL THE OTHER ONES LIED, but RUDY BEAT THE MOB, they will never find the info, ITS NOT JUST WHAT HE DECLASSIFIED, ITS A WHOLE TREASURE TROVE, AND LOOKIN objectively, and following the raids, we see THAT LYIN THIEVIN SLIDEN HIDEN, EVEN Started the war in Ukraine to blackmail ZELENSKY into telling him who has it all, REMEMBER, HIDEN even went there way back, he said Poland, and I bet Zelensky gave him a little info, BUT NOT WHAT HE WAS LOOKIN FOR, TO SAVE HIS OWN BUTT, AND HUNTERS, AND HIS BROTHERS, So all in all, TRUMP HAS TO BE VERY VERY CAREFUL, UNTIL HE RELEASES IT ALL, NOW THAT THEY HAVE RAIDED TRUMP, ITS WAS THEIR LAST ATTEMPT (i THINK). now supposedly they are going after his supporters, but I think they are turning over every single stone. THE GIG IS UP…..So I agree with you
I think the “Crown Jewel” would be if he got copies of “the Comey memos” Sundance has written about previously.
They are a series of “memos to self” Comey allegedly wrote contemporaneously, WHILE engaged in crossfire hurricane, and after.
We know they exist, because it came out on another court case, as a peripheral matter.
They are apperently CYA memos he wrote, in case everything “blew up” and he needed to “cover his ass” and justify his actions.
Its also quite possible they were an “insurance policy” in case he was, or to pre-emptively prevent him from either arkanicide, or being ‘thrown under the bus’.
In which case, while painting himself in the best possible light, they MUST point the finger at others.
Sundance wrote about them, PDJT must know about them, Ric Grennell and Ratcliffe as well.
IF either was able to get them, THEY would not just be the Crown Jewel, they could be the smoking gun.
Good memory! I’d forgotten about those.
Great guess.
I see a lot of people commenting negatively about Dearie. Don’t assume he’s a bad guy.
This excerpt is from p.222 of the DOJ OIG’s report: https://www.justice.gov/storage/120919-examination.pdf
The final FISA application included proposed orders, which were signed by FISC Judge Raymond J. Dearie, on June 29, 2017. According to NSD, the judge signed the final orders, as proposed by the government in their entirety, without holding a hearing. The primary order and warrant stated that the court found, based upon the facts submitted in the verified application, that there was probable cause to believe that Russia is a foreign power and that Carter Page was an an agent of Russia under 50 U.S.C. § 1801(b)(2)(E). […]
Approximately 1 year after this final FISA application, in July 2018, NSD submitted a letter to the FISC, advising the court of certain factual omissions in the Carter Page FISA applications that came to NSD’s attention after the last renewal application was filed.
So all 4 judges who signed off on the FISA warrant, including Dearie, were informed that the FBI had lied. It was a full year after Dearie had signed the final extension. I’m sure he didn’t appreciate being misled so the FBI could wiretap Page and anyone within two hops of Page, including Trump himself while Trump was the President.
without holding a hearing
A hearing wouldn’t have outed the FBI.
That’s supposition. Had there been a hearing there would be questioning, instead of deference.
There’s no way the FBI would have admitted the lie during a hearing. You can’t blame Dearie for that.
Ok, so why a “judge” then? What exactly were they judging in this case? Or did they just fear reprisals because Hildebeast was guaranteed to win?
IMO it was on the first judge, Collyer, to determine whether or not the FBI’s info was credible. But they would have lied to her too. So yah, why is a judge even involved then?
The court accepting the FBI’s story for the third FISA update is one of the fallacies of the FISA court.
Patriot Act has to go.
The only ones at the hearing, had one been held, would be the judge & DOJ lawyers & maybe the “Affiant.” There would be no one there for Mr. Page, not even Mr. Page.
As has been expressed, the FISA judges had no reason to think the FBI/DOJ/NSD would deliberately lie to them, even if it involved the candidate & then President Trump.
From “our” standpoint, we no longer have any trust in the DOJ/FBI/NSD. Judge Cannon is definitely leaning that way. Perhaps Dearie is too.
No, but the fact he just willy nilly gave them benefit of doubt says a lot.
They Never Hold hearings on FISA warrant applications, so that means NOTHING.
The key statement.
I agree, maybe he is the karma police and it’s time for the FBI to pay a price for rampant corruption.
At least we can hope so
Karma works for the wrong god.
It would be better – infinitely more Preferable, if Justice works for the REAL TRUE GOD of JUSTICE, The Heavenly Father JEHOVAH, Father of Jesus our Redeemer.
Regardless, Karma is Karma, and there is only one God, and yes, totally in charge and knowing all.
no matter what he will only be so good, in the end he folds
So you’re a prophet?
Name one time, in the end, deep state didn’t get what it wanted.
Trump
wrong. The deep state has profited on trump by creating the domestic threat they have always dreamed of. The president is calling 79+ million people a threat to democracy and designated political ‘enemies’ of the state without any pushback from out side the targeted group. Pure lemonade for the deep state.
FJB
They may reap more than they bargained for. I have “that feeling”.
Swamp was in disbelief when he was voted in. Swamp corrected their mistake using dominion and five state legislatures.
IF HE FOLDS in THIS matter, then Jehovah will Repair and Harvest will be greatly Multiplied.
He stood by while 6 million received special showers.
Dearie used to be on the FISC. He’s one of the judges who was lied to by the FBI in those FISA warrant applications to spy on Trump’s team, and the renewals. Dearie knows all about the DOJ/FBI’s deceitfulness.
I hold no judge in high esteem. The judges are every bit as corrupt as others since they all know what the intel community has on them.
They don’t ask questions they should ask because they don’t want to hear some things, and that includes FISA judges.
PDJT knows how important having the right person as SM is and didn’t have McConnell dictating who he could pick.
We just have to assume PDJT has confidence in Dearie, until proven otherwise.
Best case scenario;
Dearie resolves the issue of “classified/declassified” which it seems he must, detirmining the docs are declassified.
Then, he detirmined either that the docs are PDJT’s because of Presifdential Records act, or that (because of RICO case) they are A/T priviledged, and orders them returned to PDJT.
Either way, it destroys the criminal case DOJ is trying to make against him, it resolves ‘provenance’ by affirming PDJT has legal possesion of declassified docs, and with Durham announcing he is winding down, all barriers to releasing the docs are removed, including eliminating THEM alleging its Russian disinfo.
Worse case scenario, SM finds the docs ARE Classified, ARE Govt records, that PDJT wasn’t entitled to have, weren’t A/T priviledge, and makes the DOJ’s case for them.
According to Mike Davis and others, that would go 100 percent against the law and the Constitution.
I suppose there could be some “middle ground” but not gonna speculate.
Personally, I am optimistic.
I think a major error on DOJ’s part, an “unforced error” was interjecting themselves as Defendants in the RICO case.
That makes them both a defendant, AND raiding the opposing party plaintiff and plaintiffs lawyers, pawing thru A/T priviledged materials, and fighting, HARD against the appointment of a SM.
And, neither the Judge nor the SM can be oblivious of that.
I am optimistic,..
I’m optimistic also because everyone realizes that if Trump gets hammered by this justice system, the majority of the American population, who support Trump and know the truth, will no longer respect the rule of judges.
Shouldn’t he have to recuse himself? He is a victim of previous abuse.
IDK how that works, but he never judged a warrant against Trump. Remember the FIB lied and made Carter Page the subject of the FISA warrant. Page isn’t involved with the Mar a lago case.
Having trouble imagining someone really last Named “Dearie”!
Fascinating.
Funny that. I know a man with the same last name in my local village who just retired from owning a top shelf restaurant for 30 years.
I worked with a great guy with the last name darling . sometimes it was funny to say .
He may be very angry at being fooled and lied to. Kind of like you finding out you have been lied to after taking the clot shot. Now he’s given a shot at remedying it.
Whitemail is also a consideration; we know the whole place is dirty. Can’t fire everyone or there will be nobody to work…
Exactly.
I’m sorry, but after all that came out, not ONE OF THE FOUR FISC judges did anything to reprimand/punish or whatever a judge should so after finding out he’s been lied to.
The FISC should have pressed criminal charges
I really like the little dig that Judge Cannon included toward the end of her order which I am sure drives the DOJ to fury:
“It is also true, of course, that evenhanded procedure does not demand unquestioning trust in the determinations of the Department of Justice.”
Anti-trust required.
excellent catch!
Thank you for that. It is sigline material if there ever was.
A shot across the bow…..polite but well aimed.
THAT was just Simply Priceless!
Amen!! They’ve not been used to “evenhanded procedure” for a very long time. Usually it is “rules for thee, but not for me” with them and all D.C./Uniparty creeps.
First Mueller, second Durham and now Dearie. I won’t get my hopes up again. There are too many ways this could still go sideways. Documents could disappear on the way to Dearie. Dearie could prove to be just another crooked diversion. The damning documents might not even be in the seized boxes.
“Stay tuned for the next episode of Days of our Lives.”
I prefer “As The Stomach Turns.” This bee ess should not even be happening if we had a just world.
Carol Burnett certainly had it right with the title.
Yes, 3XALADY. I have not a sentient thought to contribute to this thread. We’ve all seen this soap opera before, and we all know that without constitutional, ethical, moral players, the end will be the same. To use the overworked phrase…wash, rinse, repeat.
Any documents that disappear from Dearie cannot then be used later as evidence from the raid. If Dearie is smart, he will list all 100 or so supposedly classified documents in his report, although they may be redacted when the report is released. That way, if the DOJ hid any, he will know about it if they later try to use them against Trump.
Who’s to say the DOJ delivers all required materials to the special master?
Like I said, if they don’t deliver them all, and the DOJ later tries to use documents they hid but which they claim were taken from Mar-a-Lago, and if Dearie has a record of those documents they gave him, then the DOJ is in for a rude awakening.
They can use the information without ever revealing the documents. The damage has already been done.
You’re reaching.
Nah, I see no reason to trust them. For seven years they’ve been obsessed to “get Trump”, they have lied, fabricated evidence, and harassed Trump and his associates. Their lack of credibility is entirely their own doing.
I bet team Trump has reserve copies.
Hopefully. Foolish people, if not.
I don’t. In reading the back and forth with NARA letter that was released early on, I got the impression that Team Trump had no friggin idea what was in the 15 boxes they returned in Jan
Trump’s lawyers were definitely not A or even B squad through the time of raid.
Hopefully he now has some better ones working in the background since he now realizes the DOJ is playing hardball with this stupid, insignificant document squabble.
He was ill served earlier this year. Should never have gotten where we are now
How many lawyers have experience with a 30 man FBI raid pushed by the DOJ on a former President ? Exactly zero .
That’s a good point, Ron. Dearie should make a very thorough inventory.
Season 3. What episode is this?
Repeats are being shown.
Season 7 you mean.
Dearie is the FISA judge that approved the warrant to spy on the Trump campaign (according to Jesse Watters). See my post below.
Regarding Durham, have a look at what Kash Patel just put out. Durham is the Ace of Spades.
I’ve got to get one of these decks of cards. They are going to be a keeper.
And order some popcorn.
https://fightwithkash.com/DurhamDeck#
Then on Truth Social Patel challenged Devin Nunes to play the Trump card.
When do you play the Trump card? At the beginning or the end of the game?
Funny how this echoes the Bush Saddam Hussein deck. I think there’s some serious trolling going on.
That said, at some point the DS is going to flip the table and stop pretending. The masquerade is cracking. I think the good guys have gamed that out, but all those WEF ers coming to London will come up with something.
Have faith
In the end, God wins.
BTW, September is Emergency Preparedness Month.
Just sayin’.
Anyone still claiming Durham is a white-hat has zero credibility.
I’ve been saying there is no such person as Durham. But somebody actually came up with a SECOND photo of him so now we have two. Wonder what source inventory they got them from – former Fan Belt Inspectors list of informants from 1935?
Dearie was burned by the FBI, the FISA warrant he approved contained the email that the FBI lawyer (Clinesmith) fabricated. So he was burned by the FBI/DoJ. You think he is going to let that happen again?
Again….to sign a FISA warrant claiming Trump needed to be investigated for being a spy is judicial malfeasance.
Not sure thats what Dearie did.
He signed a warrant, to investigate Carter Page, who he was told had previously been involved with Russian spys, who were subsequently convicted of espionage.
IIRC, none of the Judges were told that “involvement” involved CP working FOR the FBI, as a confidential informant, that CP CAME TO THEM, and the tape recorded conversations he got was what was used to convict the Russians.
But, unless Dearie lives on mars or under a rock, he knows it by now.
He continued a 702 warrant reserved for Foreigners, which allowed EVERYONE (US Citizen) in the Trump tower to be spied on.
The FISA court knew this but allowed the surveillance on citizens to continue.
Instead of a proper Woods file, the Steele dossier was used as the main documentation to back up the FISA applicaiion. There should have been no question that Trump was the target. Naming Carter Page in the application but presenting the nasty Steele dossier as the basis for a warrant looks like a stab at plausible deniability for the FBI in case the FISA warrant ever made its way into the public’s awareness.
Thank God, The Dear LORD is promising to wrap this mess up very soon!
I believe Him because He doesn’t LIE, and if He is going to do it at ALL it MUST be soon, or it will already all be over, anyway, but for the worse.
So, IF He is, It WILL be SOON.
And there IS NO IF ABOUT The One True God Who parted the Red Sea just for Pharaoh’s benefit.
I know little of this Judge Raymond J Dearie, but at least one of two things are certain:
He is in cahoots.
He has already been threatened.
You don’t that and to say you do is BS.
Give Trump a little credit…maybe he had a reason for this choice that you are unaware of.
Don’t “KNOW” that….???
I agree with you!
You’re probably right. He’s 78…and perhaps he’d like his legacy to be that of HERO to USA…..
I’m not finding where it says Trump has to pay for the Special Master. I know several days ago the DOJ and Trump (his attorneys) were fighting about it, DOJ wants Trump to pay and Trump wants the cost to be split.
Para. No. 14 of the order.
I still don’t see it. 🙂 What’s the sentence, or part of a sentence? I’ll search for it. Because when I search for “cost”, “pay”, and other similar terms I find nothing, and I saw nothing when I read through the order.
Yep.
The judge stated Trump was to pay all the expenses of the special master. Top of this article.
Sundance says it, but where is it in the court order?
Since the Govt doesn’t want to PROVE their CASE, but wants to make TRUMP prove he is innocent, while trying to PREVENT him from being able to, The DOJ should be forced to pay for the Special Master, as the COST TO THEM — ONLY IN PART – for their PERVERSION of the BASICS of JUSTICE which they are accountable to the Law for!
Full payment also due as well.
Q: If a document is declassified, it can be copied, given away, published, left on a park bench, put under windshield wipers in the parking lot, etc, –right?
I believe so.
No, that’s not true. Just because a document is not classified does not mean that anyone can see it at anytime. For instance, your health and tax information aren’t classified but the law strictly limits who are allowed to see them. There are certainly lots of rules regarding the dissemination of various types of government documents.
The law limits to whom the government can release the document, not the patient or taxpayer. Generally, it is to protect the citizen from government abuse.
Am I missing something, or are you? We have all seen The Law ridden over ‘roughshod’… we have all seen those “lots of rules” totally ignored, many times… This administration is in its ‘Totalitarian’ mode… Laws and Rules are “passe” to this admin.
Declassified is different than not classified. Gipper was talking about declassified.
Wow, a balanced and judicious decision by an actual real judge, not a political pawn! I call that progress. and, a win for President Trump’s legal team, about which I had my doubts.
It’s good to to see the attacks against Trump handled outside the corrupt DC and the Southern dictrict of NY . Lets hope most or all of the warrant ends up being thrown out before it gets back to DC.
Will the MAL security tapes be shown to this judge?
EDNY lol. every corrupt swamp creature has worked there at one time or another…
“By” November 30, 2022.
I still ask, if these documents were scanned and uploaded to internet today. Would anything change?
Which documents are you referring to? The 100 the DOJ claims are classified? If they were made available on the internet I guess it would only matter if they actually are classified, or are they among the ones that Trump declassified
In reporting on the decision Jesse Watters said that the judge that has been appointed special master was the FISA court judge who approved the warrants to spy on Trump in the first place and that the DOJ had approved his name.
Jesse Watters seemed to think that this was a good thing that the FISA judge was now the special master because he had been lied to by the FBI before. I’m not so sure I agree. As the FISA judge that was lied to why didn’t he initiate legal action to punish the FBI agent who swore a false affidavit to get the warrant? That is what judges do when they are lied to. They don’t take getting lied to lightly! Why did this judge let that act of lying slide? He probably knew that the warrant was hinky but signed it anyway. I wouldn’t trust him!
Assuming what Watters said was true why would Trump’s legal team put forward the name of the judge that signed the FISA warrant authorization the spying on the Trump campaign? Who put his name forward? Is Trump aware of this judges background?
Hannity just had on one of Trump’s lawyers to discuss this development and Sean asked why they haven’t released the video tapes of the raid inside Mar-a-Lago and she replied:
“you know why Sean, because this president has too much respect for the FBI agents who were just doing their job”
Hearing that just about made me throw-up. I doubt that is Trumps opinion of the FBI agents who violated the sanctity of his home (if these are his true sentiments he needs to give his head a good shake). Why would a lawyer say such a thing? A stupid comment like that makes me question how capable she is as a lawyer.
The question is a good one. The Trump team (Eric) claimed from the beginning that they had video tapes of the raid inside Mar-a-Lago. Why not release them? What are they waiting for? The “right time” to release them? There is no time like the present! Remember Rudy Giuliani sat on Hunter Biden’s laptop for month’s only making them public in the last few weeks of the election. A really stupid move!
Maybe they are bluffing about the tapes…ever consider that
I don’t think they’re bluffing. I’m quite sure Trump has surveillance of all of his properties. And remember, the attorney said the FBI instructed the workers at Mar-a-Lago to turn off the cameras but they didn’t, and media reported that the DOJ was seeking the surveillance footage.
Maybe so…maybe not. The feds also could of covered at least some of thee cameras….I sure wouldn’t put it past them
His on air lawyers are not impressive but at least they have the courage and willingness to represent him. As pointed out earlier, Dershowitz claims the best lawyers are staying away from P Trump and all the attacks, scrutiny, subpoenas and so on that come with it.
The incessant intimidation of everyone associated with PT is possibly working for the intimidators.
“The Best lawyers” are the lawyers who do not sell you out or stab you in the back. Most of the well reputed lawyers will sell you out and stab you in the back to stay in the club.
Patience..patience.
We have yet to see your President outmanoeuvred yet.
Cheated, lied to, defrauded and ridiculed but never outmanoeuvred.
My money is on PDJT..and you bet he had copies, and the sarcastic dig by the lawyer as regards the FIB was excellent.
Cheers!
Don’t forget Fauci.
You sure that was sarcasm? This was on Tick Tock after all.
You rang, Deckster?
Yes…., patience. 😜
———————————
-🥁🥁🥁
The Best IS Coming🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
“He probably knew” ? lol
The judge didn’t know he was lied to until a year after the fact. He wasn’t in any position to bring charges at that point.
As for releasing the tape of the raid, I’ll trust Trump’s judgement as when it will be the right time. He’s been right on just about everything since this whole mess started years ago. I’m not going to doubt him now.
That sounds like a super sarcastic statement. lol “this president has too much respect for the FBI agents” I wonder which one of them raided Barron’s room and sifted through Melania’s lingerie.
That was a perfectly appropriate thing to say, in a TV interview, it doesn’t nmean a damn thing.
Because it does Trump no good to irritate the FBI or say ill of possible whistleblowers until there is no other way to go.
What? They’re already doing everything possible and there are no whistleblowers. F those people.
“ “you know why Sean, because this president has too much respect for the FBI agents who were just doing their job””
Completely unacceptable to the injured Nation and her Citizens at this point. I’d issue a firm rebuke to such a political response.
No more courtesy. It’s is an automatic discourtesy to every single voter, regardless of party or choice of vote, to issue any such curtesies.
There has been an outright revolution against more than half of the country and the lawfully and legally elected representatives, taking place since the 2018 mid terms.
The leftists revolution will destroy every single man, woman, and child that do not yield, so to offer courtesy to those seeking your destruction and that of more than half the nation, is nothing short of idiotic and unreasonable.
Have we not seen the cities burn? The women raped? The children attacked? The men wrongfully detained?
God does not help those who do not all they are capable of doing. It is after we do all, that He intervenes.
Release the tapes of the raid of it helps. It is a lawful and non violent way to prove the evil targeting and attempted setup.
If I am remembering correctly, the DOJ required President Trump to turn over all copies of the tapes made during the raid on Mar-a-Lago.
But one way or another, you never expend all your ammunition at the beginning of a fight.
I never heard that, don’t know if true or not! If he still has them, hopefully he will use them when he thinks it is most beneficial!
I believe he refused.
Habba said what she did because if you hear her next words…” The agents’ lives have been threatened,” and there may be legal requirements for the case to keep them from the public at the moment.
I obviously hope Judge Raymond J Dearie will be unbiased, fair, competent and tough enough to face the scrutiny. As others have pointed out his FISA history is not encouraging.
The Judge is now being researched and spoken about in incalculable ways and numbers that he probably never imagined possible before his name was chosen as a possible Master. Will he now be doxed and pressured like SCOTUS by crazed protestors making threats and demands in front of his house with impunity and with only a small protective cordon around his property?
There are no players in this drama who are non-partisan. All of those who have been part of the deep state, including Judge Dearing, know what they are supposed to do, if not instinctively, they are told early on in whatever process they’re participating. Judge Dearing will undoubtedly get a phone call…
I don’t know how all this will play out, but, it seems to me that Judge Dearie needs to produce a report on this matter to Judge Cannon by or soon after Nov. 30, ’22.
Judge Dearie’s report will tell a story about the documents that can be confirmed or denied by Pres. Trump, right?
Please confirm or deny my thinking.
I don’t remember seeing this info before, and ABC story from August: https://abcnews.go.com/US/weeks-mar-lago-search-trump-dod-official-vowed/story?id=88461618
In June of this year, seven weeks before the FBI raided former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in search of classified materials, former Defense Department appointee and outspoken Trump loyalist Kash Patel vowed to retrieve classified documents from the National Archives and publish them on his website. Trump had just issued a letter instructing the National Archives to grant Patel and conservative journalist John Solomon access to nonpublic administration records, according to reporting at the time. Patel, who under Trump had been the chief of staff for the acting defense secretary, claimed in a string of interviews that Trump had declassified a trove of “Russiagate documents” in the final days of his administration. But Patel claimed Trump’s White House counsel had blocked the release of those documents, and instead had them delivered to the National Archives. “I’ve never told anyone this because it just happened,” Patel said in an interview on a pro-Trump podcast on June 22. “I’m going to identify every single document that they blocked from being declassified at the National Archives, and we’re going to start putting that information out next week.” Patel did not provide a clear explanation of how he would legally or practically obtain the documents. “White House counsel and company disobeyed a presidential order and implemented federal governmental bureaucracy on the way out to basically send the stash to the National Archives, and now that’s where it’s at,” Patel said in a subsequent interview on June 23 on a different pro-Trump internet show. […]
The day before he left office, Trump authorized the declassification of a set of documents related to the Russia probe. The memorandum, released in January 2021, acknowledged that “portions of the documents in the binder have remained classified and have not been released to the Congress or the public.” So according to Patel, Trump asked him to work on retrieving the classified documents from the National Archives and then release them to the public. “President Trump was like, ‘Who knows those documents better than anyone?’ And I was like, ‘If you want me to go, I’ll go,'” Patel said. “I know what’s there” in the Archives, said Patel. “I can’t still talk about them, but the whole process is going to be: Identify the documents, whether it’s Russiagate, Hunter Biden, impeachment, Jan 6th — and put them out.”
Did this trigger the raid? And by that I mean did the FBI decide to conduct an unwarranted raid in order to stop Trump and Patel from retrieving and releasing documents?
Very interesting…surprising everyone isn’t weighing in.
Maybe sending it to the archives never prevented it from being declassified before Trump left office….ABC changes words all the time
It was declassified and the DOJ is flat footed here.
I hope Patel comes up big for America. Not much talk about the perjury trap about the items “labeled classified.” Hans M. had a segment about that. Is this all potentially noise? Are they attempting to quash the original warrant?
This news has been talked about in depth. Also, Trump in October 2020 declassified all Russia/Trump collusion hoax documents, as well as Hillary email documents. This and the January 2021 declassification of the Crossfire Hurricane documents, despite redactions, IMO is what led to the raid. Especially since the June DOJ subpoena issued at Mar-a-Lago didn’t produce what they were looking for.
I do recall reading somewhere that Patel and Solomon were supposed to get some access of some kind. Don’t recall the timing though.
I do recall thinking to myself, stop talking about these things beforehand, do it first then talk about what was done.
Otherwise, more drama and less results.
This came out a while back and John Sullivan later explained his access granted by Trump to review his National Archive Records.
The DOJ is hiding the Russiagate declassified records.
Here is what happened according to John Solomon….

As I reported at Just the News and disclosed to Politico, I requested access to the National Archives from the former president’s office in my capacity as a reporter in an effort to resolve the question of what happened to the Russia probe documents that former President Trump declassified but which were never released. I have narrowly limited my access to the Archives to documents related to that single question and was able to get the American people an answer.
With the help of documents provided to me by the National Archives, I was able to confirm that on Jan. 19, 2021 former President Trump did, in fact, declassify a binder of documents regarding the Russia collusion probe and ordered the material to be publicly released. But on the morning he left office, DOJ and FBI stopped the release by raising Privacy Act concerns. Then-Chief of Staff Mark Meadows returned the binder on Jan. 20, 2021 to DOJ and asked officials to make the privacy redactions and release the memos, according to the memos NARA shared with me.
That release never happened, and the DOJ and FBI have failed to return the declassified binder to the National Archives.

I already asked this question on the thread regarding the DOJ’s nominees and Trump’s Special Master nominee’s, but never saw an answer…
Why would the DOJ agree to any of Trump’s requested judges? Something smells fishy.
Either this is Trump bringing attention to another corrupt official or the DOJ knows they have the blackmail evidence on him to keep him in check.
There’s nothing honest or above board about this whole situation, so why would honesty and ethics come about now? 🙄
My gut says this will not end well for MAGA and our movement. More hopium that never comes to fruition.
Both sides were given the opportunity to suggest potentialcandidiates. From what I have read here, the Department of Injustice has input, but the Judge makes the call.
Yes, I’m aware of that. ☺️
It was more of a sarcastic question… why would the DOJ agree to any special master Trump suggested unless…
If they thought the special master would actually do his job (not unlike the job mueller and Durham are doing) I find it highly suspicious that they’d allow him to look over the documents. It’s the fox guarding the hen house situation. IMO
onyl reason i could think of is that rejecting a fisa court judge would have the appearance of known guilt.
Your gut says this won’t end well because of all of the other things that have happened, not because you have any actual evidence that Dearie is dishonest or unethical. I don’t blame you for thinking that way. But I do suggest that you try to just be neutral and fact-based and wherever this thing goes it will go there. At least Dearie is tasked only with sorting the documents, and I can’t imagine why he would do that dishonestly. Trump wants his personal and privileged stuff back, Dearie should have no problem identifying which documents are in those categories.
It’s hard to be neutral and fact based when the truth is constantly being twisted and covered up. Mueller and Durham were supposed to be above board investigators. Following Sundance’s posts regarding Bill Barr and Durham and why they were really put in place compares to this situation. It just seems too convenient for the DOJ to agree on Trump’s special master choice given the stakes. God bless him if he follows the law, but signing off on a false FISA warrant and then not demanding justice for that once he knew it was fake seems like he’s not an honest truth seeker. IMO of course. Time will tell…
The Mueller investigation was never going to be an honest one–not with the same lawyers & FBI agents who started the “Russia, Russia” investigation. Once they added Weissmann to the team, you knew it was a hatchet job before Mueller even said a word. Pres. Trump wasn’t involved in the selection. Mueller was Acting AG Rod Rosenstein’s choice. The AG picks the Special Counsel, not the President.
FWIW, Durham’s investigation keeps running into judges who refuse to admit evidence & testimony which is against the government.
Judge Boasberg was the FISA judge who was supposed to deal with the FBI attorney who was caught after he submitted fake evidence about Carter Page’s relationship with the CIA. Judge Boasberg allowed Mary McCord to enter the case. The situation was out of Judge Dearie’s hands by that time.

Linking Mueller & Durham together makes no sense at all. Durham was appointed by DJT’s administration, Mueller was chosen by the FBI • DOJ swamp rats.
It’s possible DOJ was terrified of the other judge Trump nominated more than Dearie.
Dearie was Trump’s first choice:
“President Trump lawyers have listed their candidates including:
♦ The Honorable Raymond J. Dearie (ret.) – former Chief Judge of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, served on the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, formerly the United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York.”
And by now he’s more than enough time to have read Sundance’s cross-cutting-the- information-silos research!
No, Dearie was Trump’s lawyers’ first choice. He’s relying on advisors for these picks just like all the appointees who later stabbed him in the back.
Oh man. Those big, beautiful, bold letters: DENIED. You know that feels good. I like the way they pushed the review’s end well after the end of the midterms so that it can not have any effect on the elections. *Chef’s kiss*
Let’s keep watching this play out.
I wonder if DOJ ever thought that President Trump would go down this road ? Did they think they would have free rein to leak at will and set the narrative they wanted just as in Russia Russia?. The bitter anguish from guys like Weissman make it seem like they didn’t and the liberal commentators are apoplectic that even a little ray of sunshine might shine on their arrangements for a.another witch hunt parade .
They never expected Trump would sue in Florida court, thus taking the corrupt DC judge and jury away from them .
The liberals brought this all on themselves for years of claiming the walls were closing in on Trump.
And now the case in Florida hinges on an EDNY judge.
I agree. No way a special master helps crooks in DOJ. Even if the Judge is bought they are reprimanded and stopped dead in their tracks. 11,000 documents taken, not all evidentiary. Why?
So nasty , have some more prunes ….
Looks like they have even had to send in the back bench trolls tonight 😉
Go away troll.
Does the special master start immediately? Will it take 10 weeks to go through everything?
The DOJ was demanding it all be done by mid October. haha
Yup, just in time for the midterms.
November 30 is Dearie’s timeline.
Thanks to Judge Cannon, seems she has the DOJ’s number!
OK skippy. lol
God works in mysterious ways. Maybe this labyrinthine path to, hopefully, ultimate justice is what is needed to expose many aspects of the corrupt administrative state ensconced in Washington.
If someone does not have a thumb drive with all the stuff on it , our team is not as together as we think.
JMO.
Unclassified material can be copied as many times as you want……. and has been.
Most likely the material will be available to the public at the appropriate time……. like during the RICO trial.
A statement from Judge Aileen Cannon’s ruling today:
“It is also true, of course, that evenhanded procedure does not demand unquestioning trust in the determinations of the Department of Justice.”
That looks like great MAGA t-shirt motto material.
Hey XBPZ, did you forget about the tax cuts and new lower SALT deduction limit? Peace with KJU? NAFTA replaced with USMCA? Manufacturing returning to the US? ZERO INFLATION? Removal of the Obamacare penalty? ISIS removed from Syria? Withdrawal from the stupid Paris Accord? And so much more, all while under extreme duress from 24×7 persecution by the Dems.
Did you vote for Biden? lol He’s so much better, right?
Not to mention pulling 1 trillion back into the US from off shore tax havens. This capital fueled a recovery like no other in US history.
The Ohio Trump rally Saturday should be a barn burner. Mike Lindell will be there.
You have to be kidding. See reality check. FBI corrupt. DOJ corrupt. Biden corrupt. Thank you Donald Trump for showing us what has been happening to our government. The rest is up to us.
Also, trade deals. Secure border. no war.
We elected an outsider President and we got energy independence and no wars. Compare to what we have now.
These “two” parties gotta go.
Is this Dearie judge the same person the DOJ also offered as someone they’d approve of for this job? If so, I’m suspicious.
No, they did not “offer” him, but said yes to him.
There was a classified appendix to either the IG or Muller report concerning intelligence from the Dutch about Hillery. That information made Comey go off the rails and maybe cost her the election. My guess is the Dutch caught her selling arms. I hope that appendix is made public.
If the corrupt Democratic Party aligned DOJ appeals the Special Master decision to the 11th Circuit then the appointment of Judge Dearie as Special Master would presumably be favorable to Trump. But DOJ may think they would have a better shot with Dearie than with the full, mostly conservative 11th. Or they may appeal to prolong Trump “being under investigation” to hurt his political ambitions…which this is all about anyway. The high stakes poker game rambles on.
I’m wondering if the good guys may have something on Judge Dearie and are giving him an opportunity to right his wrongs.
Imagine the exploding lefty heads if PDJT nominates Cannon for a SCOTUS opening when he takes office again. 🤣
The man is 78. Not likely to to be nominated to Supreme Court. McConnel wouldn’t approve anyway.
Haven’t read the 270+ comments, but this seems like such a convenient setup. Like the play is unfolding as scripted. I feel like I am living in the Matrix. Not to p!ss on anyone’s parade, but this feels like a Sundance article written a week ago laying this all out. Too many coincidences to not think how this plays out. A bad dream. Not to say Sundance predicted this, but it sure feels like deja vu.
If the history is of the FBI being a responsible entity, why wouldn’t the Judge accept a verified document. Only now do we know the truth.
If you can stand to, take a look at Andrew Weissmann’s twitter.
Weissman’s goal is to intimidate and put fear in his opponent. He has nothing else.
I would imagine Trump has a stash some where and the thugs in the Justice Department did not find what they are looking for. Hell maybe Trump set this whole thing up, knowing the stash would not be found and just waiting for the day to bring it all out. Maybe the day the indict him and I believe they will.
Please Dearie, don’t be Durham or Barr. Let’s not have Bondo Barr, Spray Paint Durham and clean coat Dearie.
Clear Coat Dearie
My thoughts are Trump could have set up all of this himself to get Garland. Timing is right. He is smart enough.
Fingers crossed.

Meet the Brooklyn judge now at the epicenter of the Mar-a-Lago records case
https://www.politico.com/news/2022/09/15/brooklyn-judge-raymond-dearie-mar-a-lago-00057085
In 1982, Dearie recommended that Charles Schumer, then a young Congressman, be indicted for allegedly using state government staff to work on a political campaign, according to a 1983 story in the Washington Post.
The Justice Department declined to prosecute and Senator Schumer is now one of the most powerful Democrats on Capitol Hill.
Schumer’s office did not respond to a request for comment about Dearie …
https://www.reuters.com/article/soccer-fifa-judge-idUSL1N0YU0G720150608
The Justice Department has decided not to prosecute Representative Charles E. Schumer, the Brooklyn Democrat, on Federal charges in connection with his 1980 campaign for the House, according to senior law-enforcement officials.
The department had been reported to be investigating whether Mr. Schumer, a former New York Assemblyman, had unlawfully used Assembly aides to work on his campaign.
The case grew out of an investigation by the United States Attorney in Brooklyn, Raymond J. Dearie, who has been conducting a Federal grand jury investigation. Last November, Mr. Dearie recommended to the Justice Department that a Federal indictment be sought against Mr. Schumer, according to sources familiar with the inquiry.
6 Aides Might Be Involved
The grand jury was reported to be seeking to determine whether as many as six people worked unlawfully in Mr. Schumer’s Congressional campaign while on the payroll of the Assembly Committee on Oversight, Analysis and Investigation. Mr. Schumer was an Assemblyman and chairman of that committee at the time he ran successfully for the House in 1980.
Sources said that among the potential Federal violations Mr. Dearie had been pursuing were charges of mail fraud in connection with Mr. Schumer’s having had checks and vouchers mailed to state employees while they were actually working for him.
”The Federal jurisdiction seems very tenuous,” one official said. ”If the states want a guarantee that their employees don’t work on political campaigns, they should handle it themselves, without the Federal Government intervening.”

Common Sense
The DOJ/FBI does not want any of the documents revealed to the public until after the 2024 selection. If at all. So this delay by the judge works for them – 2 months. The judge is corrupt.
Benny Johnson says that Judge Dearie was the judge Rudy Giuliani worked with to clean up the mafia in NYC years ago.
He plays the audio clip of Trump’s interview by Hugh Hewitt this morning saying there were no classified documents at Mar A Lago. All had been declassified.
Then he plays the video clip of Jonathan Turley talking about how the DOJ overplayed their hand (blew it).
Shows video of Trump’s attorney saying this will backfire on doj. Then shows video of Trump, as president (during presser), announcing that he has declassified “everything” about Russiagate.
He discusses a couple things about the judge’s order about FBI leaking….then from about 24:00 on talks about other issues.

BREAKING: Judge Rules AGAINST FBI, Biden Regime in PANIC, Special Master APPOINTED, Trump VICTORY
Like many judges in the United States, Dearie was a prosecutor first. As the U.S. attorney, or chief federal prosecutor, in Brooklyn from 1982 to 1986, he targeted local political corruption.
https://www.reuters.com/article/soccer-fifa-judge-idUSL1N0YU0G720150608
That must be why Benny Johnson said several times that this judge hates government corruption.
The deep state is guilty of so many things. So it is difficult to tell which things in what order they would be most frightened about.
But there is no doubt that the relentless rapid fire attacks on President Trump only makes it more clear – that humanly speaking – President Trump is the one in control here.
He definitely has perfected the art of war.
God’s wisdom and power inside just one lone man can confound and bring to destruction even the most evil seemingly unstoppable forces imaginable.
And that is coming.
The libs are freaking out over this, so good work judge! I hope the judge spanks the FBI for this fake-ass nonsense.
From what I’ve seen from independents, they recognize that this is BS and they hate it.
Dearie … not to be trusted. Given his history, and the fact that the DOJ said they were ok with him as Special Master, I figure the fix is in. Don’t get your hopes up, folks. This isn’t going to be settled in the courts or ballot box. We’re beyond that.
I read about Law.
I took a test I wrote.
I gave myself 100% on test.
I am am now an attorney.
I write the rules I want to follow & ignore the others.
It’s how the system works.
