'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.'

(16,925 posts)and SCOTUS, I'm taking NOTHING for granted. SO MANY legal minds and columnists said that there was NO WAY that Loose Cannon would grant the 'wish' for the 'Special Master' - and every step that they said 'would not happen' has happened.
Sorry, I'll believe the 'good stuff' when I SEE the 'good stuff.'

Judge Raymond Dearie pushed Trumps lawyers repeatedly for refusing to back up the former presidents claim that he declassified the highly sensitive national security-related records discovered in his residence.
You cant have your cake and eat it too, said Dearie, the special master picked by U.S. District Court Judge Aileen Cannon to vet Trumps effort to reclaim the materials taken by federal investigators.
Trump has argued that the 11,000 documents taken from Mar-a-Lago were rightfully in his possession, including about 100 bearing classification markings that suggest they contain some of the nations most closely guarded intelligence.
