Special Master Calls Out Lawyers On Trump's Claim That FBI 'Planted' Mar-A-Lago Records
Raymond Dearie tells the legal team to detail what Trump claims was "planted" at his Florida resort, even though the ex-president watched the search on video.
I originally thought that the special master thing was just another delaying tactic, but it's working out so horribly for trump that I don't even mind. 
He honestly thought a special master would cause everything to grind to a halt. Cause he had to know that the 11th was going to strike his paid off judge down she's that incompetent. I don't think he actually understood what was about to happen.
Ironbite-then again, that's an easy assumption to make.
Ironbite-then again, that's an easy assumption to make.
He's grasping at straws at this point. Everything is crashing down around him and he's getting desperate. Between the fraud lawsuit in New York and the federal investigation of his stash of stolen documents he's panicking. He's beginning to realize he can't bully or talk his way out of it this time.
He's flinging everything at the wall to see what sticks. It's pretty much the story of his life. Sadly for him, the presidency made him too high-profile to slide as just more celebrity hijinx like all of his previous scandals.
I legit don't think they expected the DOJ to be fine with Dearie, and fully anticipated the selection process to take longer.
I also don't think Trump's Dollar Tree Legal Team figured the DOJ would be comfortable narrow focusing their objections to the 11th Circuit, thereby allowing that appeal to get through within a few days (With the 11th Circuit - and two Trump appointees at that - absolutely slaughtering Trump's darling judge's ruling). Which means Dearie sticks around as a Special Master, but Judge Cannon's denial of viewing the documents to the DOJ has been overturned meaning the investigation is back on track (And Garland's probably been spending the down time getting his investigators the clearance levels needed to browse all the documents since that was an issue).
And yeah, Trump's flailing. He'd already been run out of New York in a metaphorical sense long before his Presidential aspirations, his usefulness to Putin evaporated when he failed to secure re-election (Plus Putin can't keep bankrolling Trump's failings when his own economy is teetering on the brink), and the Saudis are not the kind of people you want to disappoint by failing to deliver promised intel (Hence the desperation to get those "planted" files back).
That said, he's managed to dodge every other silver bullet fired his way and we continue to live in entirely unprecedented times. I'm not eagerly anticipating the sword finally coming down on his head, but I definitely can see the walls closing in on the man as his own inability to maintain a narrative is working against him in this instance.

I don't know where you're getting this one from but I find it hard to believe he had promised to hand the documents over to someone in particular and was just putting it off for a year and a half.

He wasn't putting it off: he was extorting them for more money.
Rudy Giuliani Has 2 Weeks to Pay Ex-Wife $225K or Face Jail Time
Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani told a judge that his third wife’s claim that he owes her $260,000 is a “gross exaggeration” and he really owes her about $50,000. Judith Giuliani had asked the judge to hold her former husband in contempt for falling behind on his payments under their...

So in a semi-related topic, Rudy's in his own share of trouble.
While it still functionally takes too long: self cleaning garbage is awesome.

Kushner wasn't given $2 Billion by the Saudis simply because he's an upstanding businessman.
Trump didn't host a Saudi-backed Golf tournament out of the goodness of his heart.
As for putting it off...you really think he'd have released aid to Ukraine if they'd simply opened an investigation into Hunter Biden? He'd have kept squeezing that orange for all the pulp he could.

So is this the mistress he moved into the Mayoral Mansion before even telling his second wife things were over?

So fresh off of getting smacked the hell down by the 11th Circuit, Judge Cannon is back to tell Trump's peeps that they don't have to deal with pesky things like evidence or declarations or anything the special master told him had to happen. She's just gonna make everything go away for him. Because that's the type of woman she is.
Ironbite-she's probably gonna get slapped down again. This time might be harder.

Let's hope so. It would send a nice message to the other Crimson Guardsmen that he appointed to the bench.
