(ANSA) - NEW YORK, AUG 22 - The FBI blitz in Mar-a-Lago was dictated by "politics" and "politics cannot be allowed to have an impact on justice. Trump is clearly the frontrunner for the Republican primaries and for the general elections of 2024. Beyond that, his endorsements in the 2022 mid-term elections were decisive for the Republican candidates. "
This was stated by the lawyers of the former US president in the legal action launched against the American government to request the appointment of a 'special master' for examining the documents searched by the FBI in Mar-a-Lago.
Ilraid of the FBI was "illegal and unconstitutional. We are taking steps to get the documents back, which would have been delivered without the despicable raid.
Trump's request for a special master's degree is not unusual.
What is not common, CNN reports, is that the former president's lawyers presented it two weeks after the FBI blitz.
This could signal a behind-the-scenes disagreement between lawyers on how to proceed.
