Florida Court Turning Wi-fi Off To Block Media From Reporting Trump Hearing In Real-time

A Florida court is switching wi-fi off to block the media from reporting the Donald Trump hearing in real-time.

Sarah N. Lynch, who covers the U.S. Justice Department for Reuters in Washington, D.C. even texting is not allowed during the hearing. She said on Twitter:

Bad news friends. Florida court is turning wi-fi off to block the media from reporting the Trump hearing in real-time. This truly sucks and I don’t understand it. We do this in DC District Court all the time. It makes courts accessible to the public. I am beyond annoyed.

I am told texting during the hearing is also BANNED. So our reporter inside the courthouse cannot transmit what happens until this is over.

The court confirmed to The Independent that the wifi has been turned off but declined to offer further information.

The case:

The FBI seized documents from Mar-a-Lago (Trump’s private club and residence in Southern Florida) and now there is an investigation into Trump’s handling of classified documents. The investigation could lead to charges for holding secret information and hiding it from government investigators.

Trump’s Attorneys earlier claimed that all classified documents had been handed over following the issuing of a grand jury subpoena in May but a photograph from the 8 August search shows a number of classified documents on the floor of Trump’s office in Mar-a-Lago.

His Attorneys are facing the Department of Justice (DoJ) as the former president’s team argues that a “special master” should review the documents.

The request for an outside review of the documents found at Mar-a-Lago comes after a federal magistrate judge issued a search warrant seeking evidence concerning the handling of top secret documents as well as possible obstruction of justice.
