Oh, Dearie

Trump and his lawyers may have met their match in, ironically, the very person they recommended with the Justice department's approval to be the "special master" that Judge Aileen Cannon (who is so similar to Judge Kathryn Mizelle that they must be the same person) ordered to review documents the FBI found at Mar-a-Lago.

Judge Raymond Dearie (above) began making requests for the documents he wanted to review but Trump's lawyers held them back, saying they didn't want to open up any documents that might lead to their client getting indicted. This perplexed Judge Dearie, who responded that if the lawyers didn't have any documents to provide there was nothing for him to see.  Trump's lawyers have made the claim that some of these documents -  especially classified ones - may have been planted, and Judge Dearie angrily responded that he wants to see proof of that claim.

I think Trump's legal team is made up of lawyers who graduated from Ed's Law School Degree Company of Delevan, Indiana.      

Also, Trump says that many of these classified documents have actually been declassified - he declassified them.  He just thought about doing it, and that automatically declassified them.

I think I'm going to my local Mercedes-Benz dealership this week to get the SL Class convertible I purchased when I simply thought about buying one.

Meanwhile, a three-judge panel on the Eleventh U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals - two of the judges Trump appointees - overruled Judge Cannon's directive that barred the Justice Department from looking at documents in its investigation an said that the Justice Department could resume examining them.  They found Judge Cannon's reasoning faulty and unfathomable.  Among other things.  She's clearly a loose Cannon.

I can't explain all of this in great detail.  I advise you to watch Lawrence O'Donnell's MSNBC program at 10:00 P.M. Eastern, where he has been explaining all of this better than I could ever hope to.
