Nick Cannon, a father of 12, said he wished he had a child with former co-star Christina Milian. Cannon said he felt regret years later when he heard Milian was expecting a child that wasn't his. "I remember when I found out she was pregnant," Cannon told Mawema. "Teaches you how life plans it out, the universe gives it out how it's supposed to be given," he told Mawema. Cannon has children with singer Mariah Carey, DJ Abby De La Rosa, and models Alyssa Scott, Brittany Bell, Bre Tiesi, and Lanisha Cole.
Judge Aileen Cannon recently reversed a big win that she had handed Trump's defense team. Judge Aileen Cannon gave her confirmation testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee over Zoom on July 29, 2020. There, she prosecuted cases involving narcotics, fraud, firearms, and immigration cases, according to her Senate confirmation document. Cannon during her confirmation hearing thanked Rubio as well as fellow Republican Sen. Rick Scott of Florida for their "continued support." "Judge Cannon is a great judge who I am very proud to have enthusiastically supported," Rubio told Insider through his office when asked about the connection.
A federal judge officially dismissed the special master reviewing documents seized at Mar-a-Lago. Judge Aileen Cannon wrote in a Monday one-page order that she was dismissing the case because of a "lack of jurisdiction." A three-judge federal appeals court on December 2 wrote a scathing decision overturning Cannon's initial decision to side with Trump and grant him a special master to review documents taken in the FBI's search. During a search of Mar-a-Lago on August 8, the FBI seized boxes of materials, some highly classified, according to court records. Trump has without evidence accused the FBI of planting materials at his home, and the special master, Senior Judge Raymond Dearie, said Trump's team must provide evidence to support their claims.
The appeals court had given Trump until Thursday to appeal to the full 11th Circuit or the U.S. Supreme Court and try to get a stay before the order took effect. After the FBI executed its Mar-a-Lago search warrant, a top Trump adviser familiar with his legal strategy told NBC News that the former president would probably “appeal everything to the Supreme Court. It also barred the special master from reviewing those documents, a decision that Trump appealed to the Supreme Court in October and lost. Under federal law, official White House papers are federal property and must be handed over to the National Archives when a president leaves office. The most recent defeat came last month, when the court allowed Trump's tax returns to be disclosed to a Democratic-led House committee.
A federal appeals court Thursday ruled that a judge’s order appointing a special master to review documents seized from former President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort should be dismissed. "Accordingly, we agree with the government that the district court improperly exercised equitable jurisdiction, and that dismissal of the entire proceeding is required." In a separate order, the panel said its order will take effect in seven days, barring any intervention by the Supreme Court. Trump could appeal Thursday's ruling and request that the appeals court order be put on hold. Two of the three judges on the appeals court panel -- Britt Grant and Andrew Brasher -- were appointed by Trump.
The 11th Circuit also overturned Cannon's decision to bar investigators from accessing most of the records pending the review. Trump is likely to appeal the 11th Circuit's action to the conservative-majority U.S. Supreme Court. Cannon appointed Raymond Dearie, another federal judge, at Trump's request to review the records to consider whether any should be walled off from the criminal investigation. Trump sued two weeks after the Mar-a-Lago raid, arguing that his status as a former president required a third-party review of the documents. Justice Department lawyers also said Trump, as a former president, cannot invoke executive privilege for documents that belong to the current executive branch of the U.S. government.
Attorneys for former President Donald Trump on Tuesday asked a federal judge in Florida to unseal the probable cause affidavit outlining the Justice Department's criminal investigation into their client. A redacted version of the search warrant affidavit was made public in late August. A spokesperson for the Justice Department declined to comment. The request to Cannon came shortly before lawyers for Trump and the Justice Department were set to face off over Trump's lawsuit in the 11th U.S. The Justice Department is asking the appeals court to dismiss Cannon's order appointing a special master in the case.
[1/2] Former U.S. President Donald Trump speaks at a rally to support Republican candidates ahead of midterm elections, in Dayton, Ohio, U.S. November 7, 2022. Circuit Court of Appeals on Tuesday set the date for the arguments. The department has asked the 11th Circuit to reverse Cannon's appointment of Dearie, who is a U.S. district judge. Trump's attorneys sued two weeks after the search and sought the appointment of a special master to independently review the records. Trump last week asked the 11th Circuit to keep Dearie's review in place.
Under federal law, a president can retain personal records after leaving office, but these must be unrelated to official work. It is not clear from the redacted court filings exactly which documents Trump is claiming as personal. The department said Trump cannot assert executive privilege over any documents he has claimed as personal records because any such records must be unrelated to official duties. The Justice Department is appealing Cannon's decision to appoint a special master, telling the Atlanta-based 11th U.S. Cannon initially barred the department from using all of the seized records for its criminal investigation until Dearie's review is complete.
The Justice Department in its petition to the Atlanta-based 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon exceeded her authority when she named the special master to vet the more than 11,000 seized documents. The Justice Department is investigating whether Trump broke the law by taking government records to his Florida estate after leaving office in January 2021. Now, the Justice Department is appealing the rest of Cannon's order. Prosecutors said in a court filing this week they had turned over the bulk of the seized records for Trump's attorneys to review.
The Justice Department on Friday asked a federal appeals court to vacate an order appointing a special master to review documents seized during the FBI's search of former President Donald Trump's Florida estate — and to throw out Trump's legal challenge altogether. The 11th Circuit also blocked the special master and Trump's lawyers from being able to review those classified documents, citing the DOJ's national security concerns. The Justice Department also said that Trump's team has not provided any evidence the documents were wrongly seized or that the former president has any need for their return. Trump's team is scheduled to file its response in the case on Nov. 10. Trump's team had sought to allow the special master, federal Judge Raymond Dearie, to review the more than 100 documents taken from Mar-a-Lago that were marked classified.
In a filing on Tuesday, the Justice Department urged the Supreme Court to reject Trump's request because he has not pointed to any "clear error" in the lower court's decision or shown how he is harmed by it. Cannon had temporarily barred the Justice Department from examining the seized documents until the special master she appointed, Judge Raymond Dearie, had identified any that could be considered privileged. The Justice Department has "attempted to criminalize a document management dispute and now vehemently objects to a transparent process that provides much-needed oversight," Trump's lawyers added. At issue in the 11th Circuit's ruling were documents bearing classified markings of confidential, secret or top secret. In an interview on Fox News last month, Trump asserted that he had the power to declassify documents "even by thinking about it."

The appeals court also said it would agree to reverse a portion of the lower court's order that required the government to hand over records with classification markings for the special master's review. A Justice Department spokesperson did not have an immediate comment. Cannon, a Trump appointee herself, appointed Dearie to serve as special master in the case at Trump's request, despite the Justice Department's objections about a special master. While it voiced disagreement, however, the Justice Department did not appeal that portion of Cannon's order. It is not clear if prosecutors may separately seek to appeal other parts of Cannon's ruling on the special master appointment.
Trump's lawyers, however, have stopped short of stating in court that he declassified the documents, though they have not conceded that they are classified. Trump's lawyers did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Dearie pressed Trump's lawyers to make clear whether they plan to assert that the records had been declassified as Trump claims. Trump's lawyers proposed Dearie to serve as special master. Dearie on Thursday asked trump's lawyers to provide any evidence backing this up.
Trump claimed that he could instantly declassify documents during his time in office. Trump said that, as president, he could get documents classified just by thinking about it. I declassified everything," Trump claimed, adding that he believed the National Archives and Records Administration was run by a "radical left group." While sitting presidents can declassify documents, there is a process to get these documents declassified that involves proper documentation. This refusal to provide evidence earned a solid rebuke from Dearie, who told Trump's lawyers that they cannot "have your cake and eat it."
A federal appeals court granted the DOJ's request to resume a review of classified materials seized from Mar-a-Lago. The ruling overturned Judge Aileen Cannon's decision that paused the review until a special master review. The decision appeared to embrace the DOJ's claims that a further delay in the review would hurt national security. "It is self-evident that the public has a strong interest in ensuring that the storage of the classified records did not result in 'exceptionally grave damage to the national security,'" the 11th Circuit judges wrote. The 11th Circuit panel included two Trump appointees — Judges Andrew Brasher and Britt Grant — along with Judge Robin Rosenbaum, an Obama appointee.
Of the more than 11,000 documents seized by the FBI from Mar-a-Lago on Aug. 8, about 100 have classified markings. Register now for FREE unlimited access to Reuters.com Register"Plaintiff again implies that he could have declassified the records before leaving office. Federal prosecutors in their filing to the appeals court highlighted that Trump's attorneys had resisted Dearie's request. As one of his defenses, Trump has claimed on social media posts without evidence that he declassified the records. Trump is a former president and the records do not belong to him.
The DOJ lawyers added that Trump "is now resisting" a request by a court-appointed special master for him to provide evidence that he declassified records that were seized. But in Tuesday's court conference, Dearie expressed skepticism toward Trump's lawyers about which, if any, of the seized Mar-a-Lago records had been declassified, NBC News reported. Unless Trump's lawyers could provide evidence to dispute that stance, "As far as I'm concerned, that's the end of it," Dearie said. Court documents also revealed that the FBI found four dozen empty folders marked "CLASSIFIED" during the raid. "Those notes could certainly contain privileged information," Trump's lawyers wrote.
Trump pushed hard for a special master to review the Mar-a-Lago documents, and got one. But the official, Judge Raymond Dearie, has expressed impatience with Trump's legal defense. The special master, Judge Raymond Dearie, has not done Trump any favors in his court appearances so far, exposing holes in the legal arguments presented by Trump's attorneys in court, and confronting their attempts to evade scrutiny. At a court hearing Tuesday, Dearie prodded Trump's attorneys over their refusal to present evidence to support Trump's claims that he declassified dozens of sensitive government that FBI agents seized at Mar-a-Lago. Some analysts have speculated that in seeking a special master, Trump is trying to put as many roadblocks in place to stall the DOJ as he can.
A Justice Department spokesperson did not have an immediate comment. Cannon, a Trump appointee herself, appointed Dearie to serve as special master in the case at Trump's request. The Justice Department had objected to the appointment of a special master. As one of his defenses, Trump has claimed on social media posts without evidence that he declassified the records. While it voiced disagreement, however, the Justice Department did not appeal that portion of Cannon's order.
The special master appointed to review documents seized by federal agents who searched former President Donald Trump's Florida estate appeared doubtful Tuesday about Trump's contention that he had declassified the various top secret and other highly sensitive documents found there. The special master, Senior U.S. District Judge Raymond J. Dearie, had previously asked Trump's attorneys for more information about which of the over 100 sensitive documents federal agents found at his Mar-a-Lago estate might have been declassified. During a hearing in a Brooklyn federal court, Dearie noted the current case is a civil dispute, not a criminal one, but that he was taking the government's concerns about national security seriously. "As far as I'm concerned, that's the end of it," Dearie said, unless Trump's team has some evidence to the contrary. “We are starting from scratch and we would be well served to have time to look at the documents," Trusty said.
REUTERS/Andrew Kelly/File PhotoNEW YORK, Sept 20 (Reuters) - The judge appointed to review classified materials and other documents the FBI seized from Donald Trump's Florida home in August will hold his first conference on the matter in a New York courtroom on Tuesday. Register now for FREE unlimited access to Reuters.com RegisterIt is unclear whether the review will go forward as instructed by Cannon, the Florida judge who ordered the review. Federal prosecutors said the special master review ordered by the judge would hinder the government from addressing national security risks and force the disclosure of "highly sensitive materials." The 11th Circuit Court of Appeals ordered Trump to respond by noon Tuesday. She instructed him to prioritize the documents marked classified, though her process calls for Trump's counsel to review the documents, and Trump’s lawyers may not have the necessary security clearance.
Trump's lawyers said classified Mar-a-Lago documents could be privileged because they contain his handwritten notes. Trump is backing up an order preventing DOJ from reviewing classified records seized from his home. They went on to note that according to court documents, some of the classified records seized from Mar-a-Lago "allegedly contain what appear to be President Trump's handwritten notes." In court filings, Trump's lawyers have not echoed his declassification claims, but they have asserted that a current president has absolute authority to declassify information. Ahead of that hearing, Trump's lawyers opposed Dearie's request for more information about the classification status of the seized documents.
Dearie asked Trump's team to hand over specific information about files he claims he declassified. Dearie is asking that Trump's team hand over specific information regarding whether files were declassified or not. In a September 19 filing, Trump's team appealed Dearie's request in order to avoid revealing details about the top-secret materials. Dearie has until November 30 to finish reviewing the documents seized by the FBI. He was appointed, upon Trump's request, as a third-party neutral investigator in Trump's legal tussle with the FBI over documents seized in the agency's raid of Mar-a-Lago.
