A federal judge in Florida has granted Donald Trump's request to have a special master review the documents seized during the raid on Mar-a-Lago – granting a key demand of the former president and tapping the breaks on the government's investigation.
Judge Aileen Cannon approved Trump's motion to appoint a special master 'to review the seized property for personal items and documents and potentially privileged material subject to claims of attorney client and/or executive privilege.'
The Trump-appointed judge also 'temporarily enjoins' the government from 'reviewing and using the seized materials' pending the completion of the review.
That grants Trump and his legal team a side benefit of stalling the fast-moving proceedings that have unfolded since the August 8 FBI search of Mar-a-Lago.

“tapping the breaks”
Is this report real?
That ought to piss off all of the right people.
You mean another witch hunt….
That made me laugh….
Heard it could take months. There goes their midterm surprise
It’s a British publication. Maybe they spell brakes differently over there.
Heard it on the radio news
According to the gerbilists, there are two kinds of judge: a “judge”, and a Trump-appointed judge.
That’s fine I guess, but everything seized is Fruit of the Poisonous Tree and inadmissible as evidence because the raid and seizure violated the 4th Amendment, the State failing to provide evidence of PROBABLE CAUSE of a crime BEFORE the raid. (A warrant (and its affidavit) MUST show probable cause of a crime or it is a defective warrant contrary to the 4th Amendment.)
Who the hell are Trump’s advisors?
All they need is for this review to go beyond 65 days.
She was simply keeping her finger to the wind to see how things went after that.
Get ready for all kinds of leaks from DOJ so they can prosecute Trump on the media.
With the advent of anti-lock brakes, tapping has become an arcane skill.
So all those “experts” like Bill Barr and Andy McCarthy were wrong when they said the judge would deny Trump’s request. Shows how dumb they are, lol.
As long as this Special Master does not leak.
Yes. THWAP, Chris!
I think the domestic enemies realize that. To me this whole raid was just one more push to slander Trump even though he did nothing wrong. You know how the Marxist propaganda media and the Marxist domestic enemies work, they will portray him as guilty anyway, it will all be twisted just like they twist the SCOTUS ruling on abortion.”HE STOLE TOP SECRET DOCUMENTS” will be repeated endlessly. To me Trump should be filing endless lawsuits to hold these criminals responsible for this slander.
If it is a swamp creature, then we will know what the results will be, and it will defer legitimacy on the fraudulent FIB.
