The US Department of Justice has said it will accept one of Donald Trump’s suggestions for the neutral arbiter to review documents seized during the FBI’s raid of the former president’s Mar-a-Lago estate last month.In a court filing late on Monday, lawyers for the department said that, in addition to the two retired judges whom they earlier recommended to fill the “special master” role, they would also be satisfied with one of the Trump team’s selections.Raymond Dearie, the former chief judge of the federal court in the Eastern District of New York, is currently on senior active status, and the department said he had indicated he was available and “could perform the work expeditiously” if appointed.
