Today's headlines: Trump’s team and the DOJ both submitted their preferred candidates on Friday for the special master position to review what was taken in the Mar-a-Lago search; the DOJ has also requested a deadline on the review for October 17th, while Trump predictably requested a longer deadline, asking for a full 90 days. Old video footage resurfaced this weekend, showing Trump and his team loading numerous bankers boxes onto a private plane from Palm Beach, home of Mar-a-Lago, bound for his golf club in Bedminster, New Jersey. Stephen Miller has reportedly been subpoenaed by a DOJ grand jury to testify about the 2020 fake electors scheme, the Save America PAC, and his communications with numerous Trump aides and people from various states. New York has declared a state of emergency over the spread of Polio. Finally for today, Russia has hit multiple power stations after Ukraine’s counteroffensive.
