Today's headlines: Judge Aileen Cannon has granted Trump’s request for a special master to review the documents that were seized by the FBI. Among these were more than 100 classified documents, over 11 thousand non-classified government documents, and 43 empty classified folders. Trump’s former chief of staff Mark Meadows turned over more texts and emails to the National Archives, which he had not previously turned over from his time in the administration. Federal agents were seen searching the Manhattan and Hamptons homes of the sanctioned Russian oligarch Viktor Vekselberg late last week. Finally, the state of Mississippi used welfare money to pay Brett Favre for speeches he never made, and the August jobs report indicates job and wage growth.
