Subject: RE: BS: Trump Actions and Effects
The "Special Master" seems disinclined to let Donald and his chorus get away with the shit they've tried to pull. He doesn't want to see the classified documents, and said so when Trump's team asked the judge to nudge along the process so they could see them. The judge indicates that anyone should see those documents on a "need to know" basis and the Trump team has no need to see them. Or does the civilian who stole them in the first place.

They chose a former FISA (Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court) judge for their special master. It has been pointed out that whoever on Trump's team named this guy (was it because he's from Brooklyn?) is probably out of favor at this point. Best part of the day was when the judge told them they couldn't have their cake and eat it too. If they want the documents returned they have to show which are declassified, and even if they do, they're still property of the govt. This civil suit isn't helping The Donald.
