MSNBC Legal Analyst Praises Special Master in Trump Docs Case: ‘Probably a Better Judge Than the Judge Who Sent the Case Over’

(Via Mediaite)

EXCERPT:

ALKSNE: “Well, he was on the FISA court, which is the most important national security court that the federal judiciary has, so he knows a lot about executive privilege. He knows about national security issues, he’s familiar with the documents. He has the clearance required or certainly can have it updated very quickly. And he has a reputation as a solid judge. And that’s what this case needs. I don’t think for a minute it’s the best route because there’s no reason for a special master in this case, but the good news is the special master is probably a better judge than the judge who sent the case over in the first place. So we’re in a position where we have to just kind of make lemonade out of lemons and take advantage of the fact that this is a good judge and he’s able to handle the case.”
