Well, this should be no surprise.
She’s been bending over backwards for Trump since day one, and she’s spent this entire time dragging her feet on even the most basic of issues. She created delay after delay, and is now using the delay she created as the justification for granting the postponement that Trump has been seeking all along.
“Mid November.” What a god damned coincidence. The rotting corpse of Hellen Keller could have seen right through that load of bullshit.
At this point I’m convinced she’s literally in communication with his team or people once removed. This is the most slam dunk case ever. Did he have these documents? Yes. Was he allowed to? No.
Is there anyway they can throw her out or do something about this cunts corruption? Seriously we going allow her to keep this from proceeding until she is sure he is President and can pardon himself.
Yes, they can appeal to the 11th circuit to have her removed. That’s not an easy thing to do though.
It’s such an open and shut case, he may still be convicted with all the help in the world. If that happens he is in a bad position to effectively argue that she was biased against him.
And is there any mechanism in place for her removal as a judge, just based on overall being unfit for the role?
That’s cause cannon is corrupt
I like how they say it needs to be delayed because he’s campaigning. Fuck that. Crimes come first.
Yeah, sorry I won’t be able to pay that speeding ticket right now, I’m campaigning.
Oh, when will I be done? I suppose when the Galactic Council finally holds the vote to appoint me Supreme Galactic Overlord. Until then!
My guess is she’ll grant a delay but won’t cite his campaigning because she knows that won’t fly with appellate judges.
She’ll have enough other bullshit justifications to give Trump what he wants and get her kickback.
My understanding is that scheduling delays are not appealable, at least not by the prosecution. Judges have the right to set their own schedules.
She just doesn’t want to look blatantly corrupt if and when anything does go to appeal though. She’s doing her best to postpone this trial indefinitely while still maintaining something resembling plausible impartiality. I’m sure that when “Mid November 2024” comes around, she’ll suddenly have another reason to delay because Trump will then be appealing the results of the election about 47 times, and heaven forbid her case interfere with that and after all that he’s gonna need more time to prepare. So, January 2026 then? What? He’ll be too old and suffering from dementia and therefore isn’t competent to stand trial, even though he still appears on TV every day? Darn. I guess she’ll just have to postpone this trial indefinitely. It’s too bad…the people deserved to hear the truth, but whatever was she to do? The situation was completely unavoidable!!!
Without reading the article, I’m betting it’s Judge Cannon.
Edit: yup
It’s absofuckinglutley infuriating that this can be the case. It was the same with me too. Didn’t even have to open the article to know it was that fucking stooge.
How the hell can we pretend we have a fair judicial system when we can call how a judge will act simply by knowing who she is… Not knowing the facts of the case as they don’t matter, but simply knowing it’s “her” gives us all the information we need to know she’s going to fight for Trump however she can…
Impartial my ass.
the Trump team asking Cannon to postpone the trial “until at least mid-November 2024.”
How terribly convenient …
about a month ago, Trump’s team wanted thousands of pages of evidence it already had from the investigation given to them again, so that they could see where copies of classified documents in a box stored at Mar-a-Lago may have existed among other documents, to “ascertain where the pages had been stored,” prosecutors said.
It’s not up to the prosecutors to make up for Trump’s lawyers’ lack of organization.
Of course she did. We knew as soon as this judge was assigned the case that she was going to try to wreck it, like she did the last one.
