last night asked that investigators regain access to 125 documents found in that search of mar-a-lago. that is part of the extraordinary appeal to cannon s order which politico puts like this, it aims to a full-throated rebuke of the ruling by cannon, a trump appointee who was confirmed to a seat after trump s defeat in the 2020 election. prosecutors used the filing to describe her ruling as a danger to national security and one ignorant to the counterintelligence work and lacking in an understanding of the complexities of executive privilege. all of it and the bid to continue to use the classified documents from mar-a-lago in the investigation amounts to a bold gamut from doj. once again, from politico, quote, they re going forward with an appeal despite the risk of cementing an awful precedent. we re getting an even worse ruling from an appeals court dominated by trump appointees and they re daring cannon to double down on analysts that legal analysts on the right and left
