Trump "stooge". I added that I hoped my concern was proven wrong
"The jury is still out" on Judge Dearie, but I do feel more hopeful that I was wrong after his words today.
We shall see.

'Trump's first day with the special master isn't going very well'
'What was made clear in court is that Trump's own lawyers have no idea what the former president actually had. It's unknown if Trump simply hasn't told them or Trump doesn't himself know.
What business is it of the court?
As far as Im concerned thats the end of it," Dearie explained, assuming the Trump side doesn't have any evidence of declassification.
Dearie seemed insulted by the Trump lawyers' claim at one point that he was going beyond the scope of Judge Aileen Cannon's orders.'

(755 posts)Judicial system, after the FBI fudged the Kavanaugh investigation, the Mueller report was a sham, the Supreme Court uses 17th witch burning logic to write laws today, yes we have no bananas. And there's now a lot of Trump judges out there ready for the next indignity to humanitarianism.
