Judge Aileen Cannon seems determined to "catch and kill" Donald Trump's federal case in Florida - Glenn Kirschner [View all]

In a remarkable move, Trump-appointed judge Aileen Cannon vacated (canceled) the May 20th trial date in Donald Trump's classified documents/obstruction of justice/espionage case in Florida, and she announced that she will be setting no trial date for the time being. This is particularly outrageous given that Trump's own lawyers had previously suggested an August trial date.

Judge Cannon's conduct is reminiscent of some of the evidence in Trump's New York case: David Pecker, head of the National Enquirer tabloid magazine, was involved in a crooked scheme with Trump to catch and kill damaging stories about Trump to help Trump in the 2016 election. Now, it sure looks like Judge Cannon is catching and killing Trump's Florida case, which undoubtedly will help Trump in the 2024 presidential election.

Regarding Judge Cannon's pro-Trump bias, the recusal cup runneth over. Hopefully, Special Counsel Jack Smith agrees, and finally files a motion to remove Judge Aileen "Pecker" Cannon from presiding over Trump's Florida prosecution. - Glenn Kirschner - 05/08/2024.
