Over the Monday holiday, Federal district court judge Aileen Cannon in the Southern District of Florida issued an order on Trump’s request for a so-called “special master” to review documents that were seized from Mar-a-Lago by the FBI.
That's it. She owed him a favor. And she's delayed a criminal investigation. Absolutely right it should be appealed.
Blatantly getting away with murder (as the saying goes). Like it unfolded right before our eyes. I was wondering why it went to civil court. Thinking his attorneys were idiots. Even saying out loud, this isn't how this works. And I was like wait, there has to be an end game...and welp...meet Judge In My Pocket
Agree with your leverage analysis Paula about the post -2020 Election tfg "Judge", the DOJ has several Extraordinary Writ options. Regardless, Federal Magistrate Judges do NOT need a security clearance. And, we have such a Magistrate already assigned to this case, BRUCE RIENHART. "Remand to Rienhart!"
It's hard to believe that Trump will be found accountable for any of his transgressions! Teflon Don strikes again. Why not arrest him, charge him, try him, and lock him up. If the perp was a nomal citizen, these efforts would already have happened.
Definitely "sought out" Pam; tfg had to drive 75 miles passed courts that are much closer to MAL. It's called JUDGE SHOPPING. This Judge apparently admits jurisdiction is problematic in her court but I personally have not scanned the footnotes yet to confirm this her admitted vulnerability.
Just curious, are we/DOJ allowed to rule that Judge Cannon for Obstruction of Justice because she is just looking for an excuse to delay this trial as long as possible? Not familiar with the law. Thanks Jay.
Sure hope so. This is insane. How can one human being so blatantly get away with everything that he has without trying to hide anything…..Except of course, all of these top-secret documents that he stole from the White House and the American people
I mean a judge appointed by Trump, just so happens to oversee one of THE most important decisions this country has ever seen in 200 years gets to decide if Trump is guilty or not? Yeah I call BS!! Especially when she's supposed to be impartial, just like all the Supreme Court justices too.
Got that right Pam; but, this ruling does NOT stop the essential national security "damage assessment." Some prosecutors are savy Trial litigators Why not just file a criminal case NOW in the DC Court (scene of the crimes) based on the "probable cause" now confirmed on the 3 criminal statutes cited in the Warrant??
I agree...I think they need to act now and put a stop to the delay tactics. He's just trying to push this out until he can become a candidate again. Enough is enough
I concur Pam. There is another analysis by the experienced Andrew Weisman who was advocating tonite a NARROW appeal on the absurd "injunction". Wouldn't all Defendants now seek to "enjoin" a criminal investigation into an investigation of their stolen & deceitfully hidden property? Andrew recommends shooting that one down asap. I still advocate sending the case back to DC.
Trump getting special priviledges, and those justices he's appointed, are doing what will end up being decades' worth of damage to jurisprudence and law and order.
As we've seen, those justices he appointed have no integrity, no shame, and will simply make rulings as creative as they want to get their desired outcome.
What I want to know is there any way now, with what the DOJ knows, that he can be stopped from running again before going to trial? With all the information we have now we know he's a security risk. there is no way he should be put back in office nor should he have the opportunity to try. It's obvious that he's following his normal MO in doing the delay, delay, delay tactics which could drag this out for a long time with him tossing out one thing after another. He will continue to seek out judges that will give him what he wants. My fear is he can delay long enough to put himself out there as a candidate again. I truly believe that's one of the many things that cannot happen. This is already a circus, I can't imagine if they try to indict him once he's announce his run. Honestly it's insane how he's still even able to be considered a nominee, it's time to do something, it really is.
The conversation went like this...
TFG: this judge owes me favors
His lawyers: but she's in civil court
TFG: I don't care make it happen
That's it. She owed him a favor. And she's delayed a criminal investigation. Absolutely right it should be appealed.

I was just wondering if she was "sought out" or assigned. I mean like I really needed to ask that because it's obvious
Thank you! That explanation is very helpful in calming my despair.
Since she is a Trump appointee…..shouldn’t she recuse?

Well she does not get to decide if he's guilty or not. She just gets to uphold his motion that basically delays the process. Delay is his specialty

The fix is in.

The fix is in. I worry about an appeal...
