I thought WND was a conservative news site. Why would they give this idiot promotional time?
Hey jack you ass, that is common in all defense of espionage cases involving disclosure of documents. It is why they are often pled out because the government does not want more disclosure. Here they know disclosure will show this is a joke of a case.
Back to Judge shopping
“Article II
....
SECTION 2. The President...may require the opinion, in writing, of the principal officer in each of the executive departments, upon any subject relating to the duties of their respective offices...”
Obviously, the President often needs to retain such writings after leaving office since backbiting by underlings is very likely after a President’s term in office ends.
Please tell me, (IANAL), how does one of the litigants (Smith) get a judge DISQUALIFIED?
Babies and Idiots really get testy if they don’t get their way.
Deep State doesn’t like it when the judges aren’t in their pockets...
Little Jackie da ho is getting scared that one of the Butt Sistahs, Big Fani or Letitia the Queen of the Jungle, is going to get the credit for lynching Trump. They’ll get all the big bucks from TV interviews, movies and books. Go get ‘em Jackie. You porker. Oink oink.
Ok, Jack get the Judge off, it’s not like a new judge will have time to just start the trial next week. It would take weeks if not months to find a judge and for them to get up to speed. Jack I Don’t think this is your best move unless you want to save face and get the judge off and use her as the reason you failed! Never know in these crazy cases! Note I like how Fani is still on! Hey Jack, how about we remove 1/2 the judge and she picks which half! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
They are many people in any administration who can write memos and classify them. Those same people can declassify them. Now it would seem someone else has a copy....with “0” knowledge of whether it was ever declassified. That’s how sneaky people work the system.
Cannon’s Monday order indicates she is giving credence to Trump’s argument that he has the power to determine that certain classified documents are personal to him and his property. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Thats the law, but Smith is losing it because those documents thet Trump declassified will reveal a plot to assassinate President Trump on January 6th.
Thats treason and espionage. People in DOJ, FBI and CIA will be put in chains , indicted tried and executedby firing squad ........
IMHO thats why Smith is so cranked up.
He wants thiose documents to rwmain classified.
Trump will see that they are published.
On what basis could there be a disqualification? He doesn’t like her ruling?
That’s not how it works.
Jack doesn’t want the jury to see what is inside the secret doc covers. Just wave the envelope in the air and tell the jury to trust them.
Cannon is calling their bluff.
Good luck getting her kicked off the case.

I am not a lawyer, but thought the judges instructions were pretty clear. I only wish she had given the prosecutor a short deadline. It may be a November trial date, but thousands of document to consider.
“My head is spinning because this is sort of an incomprehensible order by Judge Cannon,” Aronberg said. “First off, she’s asking for jury instructions on a case that will not be heard before the November election, and so what is the rush?”
I read the parts of Cannon’s order I could find, and have to agree that it is unusual. But she is getting to the heart of the matter NOW instead of addressing it at the end of the trial. What is really odd is that the Leftists complain that the Judge has stalled to Trump’s advantage, yet now they are incensed because she has cut to the chase.
Cases that depend on “sensitive documents” frequently die when those documents are necessary for the defense to use in open court, but the government thinks they are too sensitive to show. The only recourse is to dismiss the case. There is no “Trump exception” for this.
Smith’s case against Trump depends on two things: 1) whether the documents actually contain critical national security material; and, 2) whether Trump had the authority to take/use documents and memorabilia he possessed at Mar-a-Lago.
Smith has arrogated that the DoJ, a department of the Executive Branch, has the sole power to determine both 1 and 2, on a “Just Trust Us” basis. This denies due process to the Defendant. Cannon is forcing the Prosecutor and Defense to argue these issues now. If the Feds do not agree to let the Defense and jury analyze the purported material, the case can’t be proved, and must be dismissed. If the Feds allege that President Trump had no powers to retain documents when leaving office, they must convince the Judge via arguments and precedents. Ultimately Judges decide how the Law will apply, not jurors and not Special Prosecutors — even illegally appointed ones.
The Lawfare Lefties are rabid because this case will die sooner than they hoped. They will storm over it, and try God-knows what to drag things out.
