Special Master: unclutch your pearls, unwring your hands
Today’s corrupt ruling by an incompetent lower court judge is not a done deal.

The written ruling was issued on a holiday, when DOJ couldn’t file an immediate appeal.
I don’t expect DOJ to roll over, hand back all the seized documents, shrug, and say “as you wish”.
I DO expect DOJ to seek a stay pending appeal, and keep possession of the seized documents.
I DO NOT expect a Special Master to be named anytime soon, until after appeals are exhausted and the elections are over.
At WORST, I think DOJ might settle for submitting the non-classified documents already “filtered” by their team to a special master for review for attorney client privilege, NOT executive privilege.
The maintenance crew at DU is gonna have to recharge all the extinguishers, since I’m sure they’ve all been used up on all the folks running around with their hair on fire
