Trump-appointed judge Aileen Cannon continues to wear her Trump favoritism on her sleeve. A number of motions filed by Jack Smith have languished, remaining unresolved for months.
As but one example, back in May, Smith filed a motion asking Judge Cannon to modify Trump's conditions of release to stop him from lying about and endangering FBI agents. Cannon has sat on that motion.
However, on Friday, Trump filed a motion asking Cannon to stay or pause a number of deadlines in his Florida case while he briefs-up issues regarding presidential immunity.
Judge Cannon acted on Trump's motion IN LESS THAN 24 HOURS, ruling in his favor and giving him precisely what he wants.
As has long been the case, Cannon's "impartiality might reasonably be questioned," which is the federal legal standard requiring her disqualification from the case.
But, of course, she will ignore the federal law and continue to preside over the prosecution of the very defendant who gave her her lifetime appointment to the federal bench. Proving, once again, the fix is in. - Glenn Kirschner - 07/06/2024.

(3,382 posts)Its been aggravating to see knowing that the circuit court has admonished her twice? Early on in the case.
I just dont understand.

(3,382 posts)and no idea if you might know the answer
But early on he took things up to the circuit court (issues about the search?) and she was admonished
But that was a long time ago
So I had hoped for months he would take it back up especially with this gag order (protect law and order thing)
And now she is obviously emboldened with SC decision.
At any rate thanks so much for posting Rhiannon.

(258,731 posts)He explains what's really going on and is sometimes reassuring - but the most important message he delivers is the truth, something we need now more than ever.
