Guaranteed. But I will GLADLY admit I am wrong if not. I will HOPEFULLY be admitting I am wrong.
The REASON I am so NEGATIVE all the time is this did NOT have to happen but for...they know who they are.

The DOJ brief is well done and really destroys the crappy arguments made by TFG for SCOTUS review.

The Justice Department asked the Supreme Court on Tuesday to deny a petition from Donald Trumps attorneys in the Mar-a-Lago search case, arguing that allowing an outside arbiter to review the classified documents seized from the former presidents Florida residence would irreparably injure the government and that Trump has no plausible claims of ownership over these sensitive government materials.
Trumps legal team last week made a technical and narrow petition to the court, asking the justices to reconsider a portion of an appeals court ruling that granted the Justice Departments request to keep the classified documents separate from a review of seized material being conducted by the outside expert, known as a special master......
In its September ruling, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 11th Circuit also said Justice Department could immediately resume using the classified documents in its criminal investigation something that the lower court had prohibited until the special master completed his review. While Trumps lawyers requested that the Supreme Court allow the classified documents to be reviewed, they did not ask the justices to prohibit the government from using those materials in its criminal probe.
The Justice Department on Tuesday pushed back against the Trump lawyers arguments that the appeals court lacked jurisdiction to say what the special master could review, saying the panel of judges had authority to review the entire ruling appointing a special master, not just portions of it.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
