It was right there, I had to.

(Bloomberg) -- The newly named special master in the Donald Trump records seizure case wasted no time in scheduling a hearing for the former president’s attorneys and those from the Justice Department. US District Court Judge Raymond J. Dearie, who was named Thursday by a judge in Florida to review all 11,000 seized by the FBI at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home last month, directed the attorneys to appear Tuesday in a courtroom of the Brooklyn Federal Courthouse at 2 p.m. for a preliminary conference. Dearie also invited the lawyers to submit proposed agenda items for the meeting by close of business on Monday.

If Liddle Donnie the sore loser was looking for an ally by suggesting him, I think he may prove to be mistaken.

Andrew Weissmann, a federal prosecutor, a former senior member of special counsel Robert Mueller's team and a special master himself, described Dearie as "compassionate" and "fair" and the "platonic ideal of what you want in a judge." "If you asked both prosecutors and lawyers, they would say the same thing, that he is just so fair," Weissmann said. "It's unusual to have a judge where both sides just have enormous praise for somebody." When Weissmann was starting out as a federal prosecutor in Brooklyn, the judge was late for a court appearance. "A few days later, I got in the mail a handwritten apology from him," Weissmann recalled. The defense lawyer got the same letter from the judge. "It was just remarkable because judges have a lot of power — they don't need to do that," Weissmann said.
