Judge Aileen Mercedes Cannon is a disgrace.

[speak easy]

Cannon has never let The Law get in the way of her decisions to benefit The Sick Fuck.

United States v Nixon was not binding, she said, on her Court.

One very surprising thing is how Cannon deals with the Supreme Court precedent in United States v. Nixon. There’s a sentence in that 9-0 opinion which resolves this issue [of Special Counsels] entirely.

Cannon does something I think I’ve never seen a district judge do before, which is that she looks into the history of the Nixon case, decides the issue wasn’t particularly briefed, and as a result determines that a sentence in a Supreme Court opinion that was decided 9-0 was, in fact, “dicta,” which means that it is not binding in subsequent cases as legal precedent. And as a result, she as a district judge was entitled to disregard it. I’ve never seen a district court conclude that a portion of a Supreme Court opinion is not binding; that was a first for me.

[no_hypocrisy]

1. I'm surprised that a non-MAGA attorney hasn't filed violations

of judicial ethics against her.

She doesn't necessarily need to be impeached. Just disciplined would satisfy me.

[Scrivener7]

2. She'll be on the Supreme Court before the term is out.

[RainCaster]

7. My thoughts as well

Anyone so arrogant of the law belongs on King Musk's SCOTUS.

[CousinIT]

3. She'll soon be on the Supreme Court. nt

[wcmagumba]

4. She is one disgusting beatch...

[Iggo]

13. You know....just because you spell it funny, it doesn't mean you didn't say it.

[wcmagumba]

15. I said it...I like funny along with truth...

[FoxNewsSucks]

27. The term fits her, no matter how it's spelled.

As do other terms

[brer cat]

5. "Disgrace" is more polite than she deserves.

[speak easy]

6. It is difficult to find the right words without venturing into

vile obscenity or misogyny.

[brer cat]

10. Yep. And that pesky TOS also. LOL

[3auld6phart]

12. Whatever

Don’t say skank , for sure you will be kicked of most sites,

[The Madcap]

25. How about

Incompetent fool?

[FoxNewsSucks]

28. such phrases are painfully inadequate.

And from Felon47's perspective, she's been very competent.

Just have to remember, like him, she doesn't work for America.

[The Madcap]

30. Good point

I was trying to play nice.

[dlk]

8. Her "in you face" corruption is disgusting

She doesn’t seem to be much of a scholarly jurist, either.

[BradBo]

9. Cannon is absolutely compromized.

I think she's married to a mobster.

[Historic NY]

11. She was made a judge to be a hack

[Iggo]

14. It's a feature, not a bug.

[patphil]

17. Apparently she thinks she's already on the Supreme Court.

It's a great deal for her. Facilitate the reelection of a felon, and get a seat on the highest court in return.
I imagine if a seat doesn't open as a matter of course, either Thomas or Alito will be given a large financial settlement to retire and make way for her.
In any event, whatever Trump wants, he gets. The most corrupt president ever, and rich and influential people from all the world can't prostrate themselves at his feet fast enough.
For over 2 hundred years, people have worked hard to make this nation great, and he's going to undo all that over the next 4 years.

[speak easy]

20. Would Thomas give up his seat for a woman?

I can't see it.

[yorkster]

26. If the price is right 💰...

[Kid Berwyn]

18. She was only following orders.

Good judges fall in line for the Turd Reich.

[dalton99a]

19. Trump will promote her to the Supreme Whorehouse

[speak easy]

21. Who would step down for her

presuming no-one dies?

[returnee]

36. She has to be confirmed.

It will be a knife fight in the Senate.

[LilElf70]

22. You're right. This arrogant moron is a total disgrace

She does not live in a world of laws. Revoke her license and make her find another profession. She is a total disgrace to the legal community. What a joke.

[speak easy]

23. "make her find another profession"

That depends on what you think her profession is. She is already prostituting herself for favor.

[LilElf70]

31. Good point

Well said

[usaf-vet]

24. THOMAS is controlling her. IMHO. Maybe he hoping she will get appointed to his chambers. I mean court.

[FoxNewsSucks]

29. They're all disgraces. They just don't care.

It's not like they work for us anyway, so why would they give a damn what we think.

[MagickMuffin]

32. She works with the Federalist Society

They are in control and send her the details to sign her name to.

[bluestarone]

33. You know, A hell of a lot of things came together to save this BASTARDS life.

Yea she's one of them, but man i just cannot understand how this whole fucking 4 years were full of good things that happened to this BASTARD! How many people do you know that was GUILTY on so many things and not even sentenced? Unexplainable in my books! Yes she will be a supreme court judge before he's out of office, there is no doubt about that. We are cursed for at least two years, and if we don't win the House and, or senate we are fucked forever.

[speak easy]

34. The shooting.

Trumps favorables grew 5 points, and stayed there.

[returnee]

35. About the worst thing you can say about a judge is...

…that they are biased, and this she has proved of herself beyond the shadow of a doubt. Impartiality is the sine qua non of the justice system. She should be disbarred.

[struggle4progress]

37. Well, every judge has her price: Cannon is just surprisingly cheap
