JTN: Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart, who approved the initial warrant the FBI used to search Donald Trump’s Florida home, will not handle the former president’s request to appoint a “special master” in the case.
U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon, a Trump appointee, will decide the issue. Cannon was confirmed by the Senate in 2020 in a 56-21 vote, according to the Epoch Times. Cannon has already made one ruling in the case, declining to allow filings from two of Trump’s attorneys for not following the rules that apply to lawyers not yet certified in the district.
Agents from the FBI’s Washington Field Office raided Trump’s Mar-a-Lago compound in early August seeking classified documents he may have removed from the White House. Reinhart issued the warrant despite previously recusing himself in a civil case filed by Trump against former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and others over the Russia collusion scandal. more here
Thank God. Finally an even break. He certainly appointed enough of them, sooner of later he had to run into one. However I can’t help feeling this is all scripted and a waste of time. Let the games begin.
Trump appointed judges from a list provided him by nevertrumpers
Republicans have shown a near pathological tendency to appoint closet liberals that rule against conservative values and the Constitution at the first opportunity.
I tire of hearing that elections matter, after decades of disappointment. Admittedly, a few genuine conservatives and constitutionalists have made it through the screening process. Obviously an oversight. Still, it is just enough to keep me hoping and voting.
Speaking of “judges”, recently a Texas judge who rules on immigration has been arrested at the southern border for human trafficking. Timothy Daniel Japhet tried to smuggle four illegal males into his personal vehicle and likely for the purposes of forced seks activities. More American predators (think Joe Biden) have been chicken-hawking the border to pluck out “ripe” potential victims for their prostitution rings and illegal drug mules (think fake NY gov Kathy Hochul, FBi, et al) which is one main reason why Joe Biden has opened the borders to illegals.
Can’t wait to see who the “special master” will be. Maybe they can find someone that can emulate Judge Roland Freisler.
Swamp-Appointed Judge.
