Donald Trump has suffered a major loss in relation to the Mar-a-Lago investigation
Donald Trump is suffering a major defeat after an appeals court blocked a third party review of documents seized from his estate.
It essentially removes a major barrier to the DOJ’s investigation into Trump’s mishandling of government records.
The documents were taken from the White House to Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida.
The court reversed a previous order appointing a special master to sort through the documents, which would have determined what investigations were unable to touch.
In a statement, the appeals court said “we cannot write a rule that allows any subject of a search warrant to block government investigations”.
