Donnie Dumptruck says Mar-A-Lago's been searched by the FBI

[Anonymous]

If he had declassified any of the documents, he would have them on a list. He wouldn’t need to see them. He would know What they were.

"In short, seasoned IT professionals who routinely work
on large-scale document productions with the Government cannot meet the Government’s
proposed schedule, and it was never realistic for the Government to suggest such a narrow
timeframe. Consequently, the Plaintiff respectfully suggests that Your Honor and the
parties will be best served by having the retained vendor convey a supportable timeframe
for scanning roughly 200,000 pages into a platform, and also provide a breakdown of rollout quantities and proposed deadlines. It would be better to base deadlines on actual data
and not wistful claims by the Government."

He makes it sound like the government will need much much longer to have the task accomplished, but the DOJ is just asking for another day or two to hire a vendor.

I dunno....It seems like if you hire enough people you could get any scanning, indexing job done in two weeks.

I am pretty skeptical of the 200,000 pages that Trusty is putting out there. The inventory has 27 boxes on it by my count. You're not going to fit 200,000 pages in 27 boxes. Not even close.

In any case, the vendors were willing to meet the timeframe for DOJ, which demonstrates this is not a technical or manpower issue.

Ooooh, I get it.
Trump needs a list of the 100ish classified documents. He needs to see exactly what they are, because he was so careless he doesn’t even know.

He’s saying he needs to see them to review them for privilege. But he really just needs to see the titles on the documents and the dates. Because his team wants to create a phone paper trail saying he declassified them, and also probably create a phoney narrative about why he took them.

But they can’t do that without knowing exactly what the documents are. Trump has no idea, and his legal team can’t do anything because they don’t know either.

Too late anyway. Chances that FBI hasn't interviewed Kash and every other Trump flunky about this alleged declassification is approaching zero. They'll get them all on the record now about what he declassified before they reveal what he stole.

Cannon is such a hack. It doesn't matter much anyway since the 11th Circuit bench slapped her. Now that she is extending this, DOJ should probably go to the circuit with a motion to stay the rest of it pending the outcome of the appeal. The panel essentially said Cannon has no jurisdiction over any of this, so they would probably win that stay.

Look for signs that Bobb and Corcoran get called to testify about obstruction. Alina Habba is also a potential witness. Grand jury secrecy will limit information to that being released by folks aligned with TFG.

So…. Cannon engaged in more skullduggery.
I knew she would.

Chances seem fairly high that Dearie resigns. She's more or less said that he cannot do the job he was hired to do, and she's going to ignore his recommendations anyway. I also think DOJ either moves to expedite the appeal or moves to stay all of Cannon's order. They now know their panel, know the panel is very likely to rule for them on jurisdiction, and it's clear that Cannon is going to protect Trump from having to make any factual admissions as part of this. They might have thought they could get through this quickly and be done with it, but it's also clear she's going to let Trump keep delaying. Hard to see any benefit for DOJ continuing to play Calvinball

Would they get the same panel or a different one?

Same. The prior decision was technically part of the same appeal; it was just a motion for a partial stay pending the appeal.

How can she get away with this?

Her actions are astonishing, as they are so transparently politically motivated.
Can she be impeached?
She is surely not behaving like a Federal judge!!

That tweet is so true. Her behavior makes sense if you assume she is trying to protect Trump from legal consequences.

What would Dearie even be reviewing for at this point? The classification issue has been taken off his hands. None of it would be executive privilege without input from Trump's team. He'd have no idea what should be privileged or not beyond what the filter team has already done.
