Judge to allow portions of documents on Mar-a-Lago raid to be made public

 National Review:

The Florida magistrate judge who approved the warrant allowing the FBI to search Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence said in a Thursday hearing that the entirety of the underlying affidavit can’t yet be released without redactions, but suggested that certain portions of the document will eventually be unsealed.

Despite objections from the Department of Justice, there are portions of the affidavit that could presumptively be unsealed, Judge Bruce Reinhart, said, according to the Palm Beach Post.

The federal government will file redactions August 25, he added, saying it will be a “considerate, careful process.”

The ruling comes after several media outlets, including CNN, the New York Times, and the Washington Post, filed a motion Wednesday requesting the affidavit to be unsealed.

The “public has a ‘clear and powerful’ interest in understanding the unprecedented investigation in former President Donald J. Trump’s handling of classified records,” the media outlets wrote in their motion.
...

Trump clearly wants the material made public.  I suspect that is because the alleged classified material contains information about the Russian collusion hoax and those behind it.  Those responsible for that fraud need to be brought to justice.  At this point only one of them has been indicted.

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
