REUTERS/Andrew KellyThe Justice Department and former President Donald Trump's legal team have just filed their response to Judge Aileen Cannon's order requiring them to put forward a list of candidates to serve as special master as well as a proposed order of the special master's duties.

Trump's legal team has put forward two candidates as well: Raymond Dearie, a former chief judge of the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York who served on the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, and Paul Huck Jr., a former Jones Day partner and husband of Barbara Lagoa who was on Trump's short list for the Supreme Court.

Trump's team continues to not declare anywhere in this filing that Trump ever declassified any documents related to the search -- despite Trump's public claims that he did. They merely claim that they believe the government "wrongly assumes that if a document has a classification marking, it remains classified in perpetuity," per the filing.
