Trump appointed Judge Aileen Cannon who was confirmed in the lame duck session after the 2020 election.
Former President Trump appeared to praise a federal judge Monday for agreeing to his demand for a special master in the investigation into mishandling of top secret documents.
Minutes after U.S. District Court Judge Aileen Cannon issued the order, Trump mocked the Department of Justice and suggested his followers should fight the “totally corrupt” prosecutors.

“Remember, it takes courage and “guts” to fight a totally corrupt Department of ‘Justice’ and the FBI,” Trump wrote on his social media platform.
