The release of the special counsel report by the attorney general would severely prejudice the due process rights of the individuals identified in that report, a brief filed late Saturday in a Florida federal court argued. All eyes now rest on Judge Aileen Cannon’s docket to see how she responds to this weekend’s bombshell filing.
The flurry of court filings began exactly one week ago when Waltine Nauta and Carlos De Oliveira filed two emergency motions to enjoin the release of the special counsel’s report. Special Counsel Jack Smith had indicted Nauta, De Oliveira, and Trump in the Southern District of Florida for alleged crimes related to Trump’s retention of classified documents.
Last year, presiding judge Aileen Cannon dismissed the charges, holding Jack Smith was unconstitutionally appointed special counsel and lacked authority to prosecute the alleged crimes. The government appealed Judge Cannon’s dismissal of the indictment to the Eleventh Circuit Court of Appeals, but following Trump’s election, the DOJ dismissed its appeal. However, the DOJ’s appeal remains pending against Nauta and De Oliveira, leaving them in legal jeopardy.
Accordingly, last Monday, the two defendants asked both Judge Cannon and the Eleventh Circuit to enjoin the release of the special counsel report. The Defendants filed two separate — but nearly identical — motions, one in each court, given the uncertainty concerning which court might conclude it had jurisdiction over the matter.
The strange procedural posture of the case and uniqueness of the issues led Judge Cannon to likewise adopt a cautious approach to the motion: Judge Cannon entered a temporary injunction barring release of the special counsel report pending the Eleventh Circuit’s ruling and for three days thereafter, unless the Eleventh Circuit directed otherwise.

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
