re: #33 Targetpractice

Yeah, this is why forum-shopping this shit to Loose Cannon was a massive mistake, assuming that her decision to play “fill-in-the-blanks” with their legal filings to give Donny what he demanded would continue to fly with whoever ended up being appointed the special master. Word since yesterday is that his stooges picked Judge Dearie because they hoped his part in the Carter Page warrant business had soured his relationship with the FBI and would make him more amenable to their “privilege” BS.

Trump’s team is about to learn what it feels like to be a bug on a windshield.

From the NYT articles posted downstairs, it appears that team trump misread the room:

The website Axios reported that the Trump team did so (offered Dearie as acceptable Special Master) because the lawyers believed that the judge shared their skepticism of the F.B.I., because he was one of the judges on the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court who approved of warrants to surveil a 2016 Trump campaign adviser named Carter Page. Two of the four warrants the court approved were later declared invalid.
