MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell analyzes a new filing from Justice Department lawyers telling Judge Aileen Cannon that her order for the appointment of a special master to review the government documents seized from Donald Trump’s Florida home is creating a national security risk and could do “irreparable harm” to their investigation.

It took Merrick a bit longer than many of us wanted to get warmed up. I do, however, understand he was trying to be respectful of the former prez and the judge. They have taken kindness for weakness. He is fed up now; ignorance and not so subtle stalling will no longer be tolerated. They are letting the judge know she has a lot to learn, and she can destroy her career dealing with a high level thug. As well, act in an urgent manner; otherwise, we are prepared to go over your head.
Ah, so now we are to the point where the current administration thinks its ok to intimidate the judicial branch. There's a reason we have three equal branches. You are watching how states become totalitarian in real time.
Most Trump judges and lawyers are crooked so it doesn't surprise me that this one is just as bad. And you know you might have shown important documents to Russia or someone else in the realm that he is indicted you might have given them information to go after our democratic ways
Deep State media puppets , MSNBC & CNN . Tabloid rags run by big corporate .
Can Biden step in with an Executive Order on this?
Fire the judge.
How come no one is talking about his stupid shrine to himself covered in Presidential documents? Has anyone been to 45wine&whiskey at trump tower? It’s amazing. Trump booze, trump ice, trump cups, plates, napkins, ash trays, lol everything! Classified documents folders on display to brag! Lol he is too much
This is her pay back to Trump for giving her a job she is and never will be qualified for. She needs to be disbarred.
I am so impressed with Lawrence O'Donnell, this is a real commentator, finally I found one! His words are so poignant and profound I can listen to him all day long! He's very knowledgeable and informed and has a great balance of common sense and respect for the truth. This guy has it all, whatever you do MSNBC don't let this one get away! He's now my favorite on all of You Tube! I find myself awaiting his commentaries now wanting to hear his clear concise defining of all these many harmful issues with a constant focus on fact and truth. Thanks Lawrence for your finely chosen words, thoughts and opinions!
In the first instance, how is a confirmed Trump appointed judge allowed to make a ruling regarding this demon period?…that is a direct conflict of interest and reeks of a payback for her selection.
Why is it so hard to lock him up, if that was someone else he would be in prison
Who comes up with these crazy titles?
"Special Master" 🤣🤣
JUDGE Cannon should show her loyalty to country and not a corrupt ex president. Is this how you show your appreciation to America for giving you citizenship and a life time appointment. Taxpayers pay your salary and not Trump. You are complicit in helping this lying traitor destroy our democracy. WAKE UP. THIS IS NOT CUBA!
THE UNPRESIDENTED FACT IS THE THEFT OF THE DOCUMENTS BY THE MORON EXPRESIDENT. THEREFORE THERE NEEDS TO BE UNCHALLENGED INVESTIGATION INTO WHAT HIGH TREASON HAS BEEN COMMITTED BY THIS LOOSE CANNON EITHER BY SELLING SECRETS TO OUR ENEMIES OR JUST BEING A MORON .
She's an evil *itch! Get her out of that position!
We e love Trump
This will be shown to be different how it's propagated just like anything else. National security is the lynch pin of dark acts.
News flash the hyperbole is silly and there is no difference between our intelligence or any other state's intelligence.
Actually it is America VS corrupt D.C,you know the ones,the ones we elected him to clean up the muck,it's just a lot more muck then expected but am sure it will get done.
She doesn’t care. She only cares about her own position and sucking up to a pathological liar.
Treasonous trump should be in Prison already!!!
I was in the military 50 years ago and had top secret clearances, if I had stolen that many top secret documents I would still be in jail. Anyone else in the whole country who stole that many top secret documents and left them laying around in marlogo would definitely be in jail. I don't understand why Donald Trump isn't in jail, I also don't understand how he can think of running for any federal office again when it's impossible for him to get a security clearance. If he did get a security clearance somehow I don't see how he could keep from being impeached for breaking the emoluments clause within the first weeks by a Democratic Congress, which we are likely to have by then.
