cry-baby CNN video
I look for Cannon to delay decisions until shortly before the election, and they will be favorable to Trump.
Smith was not nominated and confirmed by Congress, so he is an illegal prosecutor.
Case closed.
Listen to both sides and hear the arguments.
Dancing to the DOJ music is not the normal case.
Isn’t Smith the only Special Prosecutor? What other judge let him proceed?
That would have rendered him appropriately subject to impeachment. As things stand now he’s immune to impeachment!
I wonder if Cannon has a lot of life insurance.
It’s not the “court schedule”, it’s Judge Cannon’s schedule. The judge sets the calendar and notifies the clerk of pertinent dates relating to a case. I’ve never known a judge to ask “the court” for permission to schedule a hearing or the correct date to schedule responsive pleadings.
A judge may consult with the parties regarding conflicts, and adhere to laws about required time frames, but the judge is the keeper of their chamber’s calendar. The parties can suggest preferred dates but the DOJ doesn’t get to tell the judge what dates she must pick and when to schedule a hearing.
CNN’s articles makes it seem like someone other than the judge is in charge of calendaring issues.
Jack Smith is used to DC courts where he makes the rules and the judges go along with him. To his dismay, Jack Smith is not in a DC courtroom.
AT LAST...THERE IS A JUDGE WHO “ABIDES BY THE......LAW”
AS I UNDERSTAND IT, HE was supposed to be a FEDERAL EMPLOYEE before either of those other 2 steps.
HE WAS NOT.
TOTALLY NOT “ACCORDING TO HOYLE”.
It would be unethical for Judge Cannon to refuse allowing a hearing on so central a matter considering what is at stake for the defendant.
ALL of these cases against Trump are proceeding at warp speed for our legal system.
It is normal for complex cases to go on for years before going to trial so if justice were the goal no problem
But the Democrats need to rail road Trump by the November election
And she is using her discretion...discretely. Never doing anything that is outside her legitimate purview or that could be appealed. Master class in slow-walking.
A judge who actually wants to faithfully apply the law? This must be a prank, right? Is it April Fool’s Day?
Judge Cannon is being very smart. While she sees the Jack Smith dirty tricks - tricks a liberal judge might look the other way - she is carefully taking the time to listen to arguments and to carefully consider all legal issues -- IOW, she is delaying the trial past the time of the election!
Normally that would be considered reasonable conduct by a careful judge. The problem is that Jack Smith, Jay Bratt, Merrick Lavrentiy Beria Garland and Genghis Joe Bitem want a quick outcome in order to eliminate their most imposing political candidate threat.
Consequently the autocratic govt organs are raising petitions to get the judge removed from the case and their boot licking Pravda media to scream judicial incompetence. Their chances of success - prior to the election - would be better playing the super powerball lottery!
If Cannon rules that Smith’s appointment was illegal and dismisses the Florida case against Trump, how does that impact the DC J6 case?
Poor widdle lawfare Jack is losing it in his cwib.
The leftists just need one conviction, and they already have that.
Wheeeeeeeeee! Love to see this!
A REAL judge who realizes that the case goes far beyond the issues at hand.....she is recognizing the left's lawfare and wants various ideas about it on the record.Malicious prosecution is about to be declared! Violation of President Trump's civil rights! She looks the lefty fascists in the eye and does not blink.
Justice Cannon will one day be on the Supreme Court of the United States.
