The Justice Department is asking a federal judge in Florida to make Donald Trump foot the bill for the special master review of documents seized from Mar-A-Lago. However, Trump’s legal team is pushing for the government to cover half the cost of the process. MSNBC Contributors Charlie Savage and Barb McQuade joined American Voices with Alicia Menendez to discuss the disagreements between Team Trump and the Justice Department.

Trump Asks Judge To Pass Cost Of “Special Master” To The American Taxpayer
source
I can't believe "you people" are talking about this….when there is a global popcorn shortage…
Trump asked for a special master, he should pay for them. Trump cause all of this and taxpayers should not have to pay for his mishap.
No problem Mr. President! 🇺🇸
hahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahaha hahahahahahahahaha
OH YEAH BUT THE DEMOCRATIC SOCIALIST CULT MEMBERS SAY PRESIDENT TRUMP PAID OH HE PAID THE MASTER RIGHT
How much is the special master?
So let me get this straight a president that donated his 400 thousand dollar a year pay check for four years that’s already a billionaire is passing on his legal fees to the tax payer
I SMELL BS MSDNC
No FN way. This dirtbag has cost us enough. He and his base are about to find out that they are NOT the entirety of the American People.
Well this is a bull crap lie.
The cost should be borne by the Justice dept. they were the crooked ones that necessitated the special master to begin with.
I remember when trump was elected , he bragged he wouldn't take the income a President gets… he is so full of himself with lies… I know you supporters of him don't understand it, but he has cost tax payers SO MUCH MORE.. and still is asking for money.. WHAT HAPPENED TO . I will work for free as president . This man is immoral mob boss, KING/GOD wanna be. worst president in the world. Yes, WORST PRESIDENT OF THE WORLD!
Who's paying for this dumb investigation?
I notice how they leave him alone for most of Biden’s Presidency, until they see him gaining popularity while they’re losing popularity. So this stuff is brought up just before an election. Just like the impeachment debacle.
HERE WE GO AGAIN, MARXIST’S PROPAGANDA WILL NOT STOP! THATS A LIE! ORDER
“14. Plaintiff shall bear 100% of the professional fees and expenses of the Special Master and any professionals, support staff, and expert consultants engaged at the Special Master’s request. The procedures for establishing and paying the Special Master’s compensation and expenses shall be determined in a later order. Within ten (10) calendar days”
DONALD J. TRUMP,
Plaintiff, v.
UNITED STATES
DISTRICT COURT SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF FLORIDA WEST PALM BEACH DIVISION
CASE NO. 22-81294-CIV-CANNON
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
PEOPLE STOP LISTEN TO COMMUNISTS & AGITATORS!
Maga trumpanzees would gladly pay his fees. Ask them dumpster
I can'T listen to this anymore it makes me regress to a time in my youth when bullies were open season and in the 70s if you got into a fight the police let both of you fight it out. No one went to jail the bully got his black eye and I got mine and we all went home .But the bully never picked on the subject of his black eyes and he held the door open for the girl he picked on and if you lost you didn't cry about it or someone else would kick your butt.our senate is filled with spoiled brats who break laws as they please and they all need a 3 round fight in a ring .these people cry all together its like a spoiled brat club.and until law enforcement is upheld in the senate and those who commit felonies are jailed for felony terms the senate shouldn't be able to make laws because they just break laws! the government should be shut down and mitch mcconellon should be charged with obstruction of justice and indicted and jailed tried all his appointees should be reviewed Biden needs to straighten out the senate he needs to fire aileen canon and arrest by executive order donald trump and put him in gauntanamoe bay and all his putin crowds and the 100 republicans traitors. send in the troops while you can because when these spoiled brats get power by cheating they will use the doj which they still own .And if Hunter Bidens is arrested you were warned .
MSNBC is employed by Satan
I agree. Why should he pay, I had to pay attorney because the police believe my son did crimes. It turn out that it wasn’t him . I spend so much money on attorneys fees.
Let the democrats pay for it because this raid was illegal.
I don’t mind paying for Trumps special master one bit..
Funny how the media isn’t pointing out how taxpayers are footing the bill for illegals or for Ukrainian “relief” while Americans are suffering at the hands of democrats BS.
trump 2024
Most of us don’t mind paying for some thing if we’re going to get to the truth we know that you all hate the truth but some of us would love to get it. That’s why no one watches your channel because people want truth fact common sense all of which you lack
I love how y'all mad about the special master but not mad about paying more in taxes for the "Student loan forgiveness" and the inflation act.
Hey MSNBC you don't say anything about Biden passing off college tuition to taxpayers but if Trump lets a fart out you make a big deal out of it. You're nothing but a garbage network. Send the bill to the Democrats.. They are the ones that instigated the raid.
Is there any "Actual" proof of this or is MSNBC making up another cover story to make them seem legitimate?
The media is a parasite on human consciousness.
He wants it, he should pay for it. How fare is it to pass the cost to hardworking people that can barely keep food on their families table.
It’s the right move. We should absolutely pay for it. We’re already paying for everything else, might as well do that too. It’s a drop in the bucket compared to the cost of gas increases, tax increases, the destruction of small businesses, etc. So, I can live with paying for the special master. 😊
what a Disgusting waste of time trying to find something illegal with President Trump while you ignore Joe Biden Hunter Biden Nancy Pelosi and Hillary Clinton..
all committed huge crimes.
What is wrong with you people? The immigrants are getting phones hotel rooms we are all paying for that and so many other things like security for all the politicians what on Earth do you guys think when he needs a special master? Hypocrite s!
United we Stand! Divided we Fall. We are definitely not United and the Moral walls of our foundation are crumbling! It’s so sad to turn on the evening news and see Media persecuting our own President who was illegally pushed out of the Oval Office!
If you pay a middle man to sort the truth are they really impartial?? No ofcourse not. and especially if its ever taken to court. Everything in the media is 100% left propaganda. If he was paying the special master youd be crying foul too ("that judge is in his pocket we can't believe him!"). We get it trumps in the wrong no matter what. Or thats what you've been peddling for 5+ years now with zero credibility
Someone obviously knew removing the Top Secret doucments from the White House & then who put the Top Secret doucments in his office. Why would they move these boxes of Top Secret doucments if Trump didn't know anything about it. Where are the safety procedures with movers just picking up boxes of Top Secret doucments. How do they know that a box or two of Top Secret documents haven't been accidentally place or stored in someone's else vehicle or even in the front of the moving truck to be sold at a nice price to the highest bidder on eBay?😳.
Trump worshippers would gladly pay. Just don’t include me and my money
Pass the cost onto Hillary.
HERE’S A THURGOOD MARSHALL MOVE: SINCE CANNON STYMIED ONE DIRECTION OF THE INVESTIGATION THE DOJ SHOULD SUBPOENA THE GUEST LIST OF EVERY PERSON WHO VISITED MARA LAGA SINCE NOVEMBER OF 2020. THEN THEY CAN FOLLOW-UP ON ANY QUESTIONABLE VISITORS AND MAKE CONNECTIONS AS TO THEIR ACTIVITIES. THIS LIST MAY PROVE VALUABLE IN LATER YEARS AS TRUMP’S ESPIONAGE LIKE ANTICS SURLY WILL SURFACE IN YEARS TO COME. MARK MY WORDS 9/17/2022
Trump should ask his wife and daughters to take a night job and Kushner has got a heavy bribed from oKSA Prince he can use that money, why tax payers we do not owe him anything he has ruined America
Y doesn’t he ask his poorly educated follower 2 pay 4 it
