I hope the same about her career! This judge is not even subtle about her lawlessness. When I read the headline, my thought-Who does she think she is??? Last time I looked, she does not have jurisdiction over the DOJ!!
Her career go up in flames? Are you serious? I believe dt has promised her a seat on SCOTUS which will happen as soon as he can push off an older conservative justice. She'll be in his pocket and she's young.
Agreed. It just came to me today: 🍊💩🤡 will pardon the two minions and make them MAGA heroes. Why not steal 🍊’s thunder on the pardons and release the reports now? It would also defang (and piss off) Cannon. I just don’t know that Joe or his people know how to behave in a knife fight. Unless/Until the Dems learn this lesson, MAGA will reign supreme.
Cannon is essence of tiresome and illogic decision-making. She brings to mind "Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?" Except she's no Thomas Becket. Ever. God help us all.
Oh, for crying out loud! Who died and made her King? Surely, this idiocy makes her easy to overrule? Perhaps she is auditioning for her Supreme Court gig?
I have personally had people in patronizing tones (as others had people told them) tell me that Judge Cannon has not acted unethically. At some point, it gets rather hard to believe.
The willfully ignorant sheep/cultists will believe any lie they are fed. Incapable of critical thinking (if thinking at all) they just regurgitate the story they’ve been fed.
She’s been smacked down on appeal more than once, and the issues appealed are legal issues. Courts usually decide appeals on legal errors, not on the facts in the case. What’s clear is she’s embarrassingly ignorant of the law.
As CREW and others have noted, at some point, it appears that she is not just ignorant but wilfully unethical. This is suggested by people—including those expert in the law—discussing how she aims for a better position & crafts her decisions partially for that purpose. Again, the evidence at some point quite arguably comes off as not mere ignorance.
Even if the 11th rejects everything she's ordered, won't they just appeal to SCOTUS where Clarence Thomas, who oversees the 11th, just say something like "her order stands while we spend a couple of weeks looking into this"?
These folks, with Judge Cannon in particular, are about to step into the breach and become a real-life iteration of the adage of "be careful what you wish for". The ignorance and arrogance is breathtaking. JUMP!
I think all actions going forward must be evaluated in the framework of “does this act protect our democracy from those authoritarian wannabes or not?” Some actions of course are fraught. But it seems clear that absolutely nothing is going to happen to Trump given the SCOTUS we have about this case. “IF” that is true, then yes drop the charges with the clear eyed statement that doing so moves justice forward so the American people can see the facts that would be hidden from them, by those seeking power at any cost.
So, I completely understand your position on this matter. And agree FWIW you are correct. Cannon is out of bounds.
Now… why doesn’t Garland release Volume One, and then minutes later have Biden just go ahead and pardon Garland for anything to do with any Trump related cases. Just get Volume One out there. Protect Garland (and Jack Smith and team members) from Trump’s inbound wanker-filled DOJ.
Cannon can pound sand on her inane request for a Volume One cross check to ensure nothing related is in Volume Two, or vice versa. I assume Trump will either pardon his two little minions in the Mar-a-Lardo case, then direct his DOJ to kill those indictments anyway. Of course, be a real shame if Garland released Volume Two public and was pardoned by Biden for that, too. Might save a little face from his somewhat embarrassing four years.
Biden should pardon the two minions as well, and then release volume two under the Robert’s Kangaroo Court’s totally BS immunity ruling. Just for fun, he should pardon himself as well, to get the constitutional crisis started early.
Garland won't do it. Smith has "resigned" - note how the media did not report til after the fact? Biden however can do it himself, he mandates Garland to do it. And it's done. Simple.
Exactly. Just taunt the a-holes in the Robert’s Kangaroo court to manufacture some twisted reason why their utterly BS immunity “ruling” doesn’t apply to Biden.
If Cannons order is invalidated no one can be held in civil city tempt for violating it. They could be found in criminal contempt but Biden could pardon them as Trump did for Arpaio.
If she has no authority, can the DOJ just disregard the order? This hack is getting on my last nerve. I hope her career goes up in flames.

What do you inagine all this has been about?
It’s quite obvious what Trump has been trying to do. The rule of law does still stand, however.
No more rule of law in 8 days. Tick tock.
More likely the 11th circuit. That court's been a particular thorn in his side & I suspect he'll make fucking it up a priority.
Well, Trump already did by putting Wiiliam Pryor on the 11th Circuit.
I have this same question, and if they do simply disregard Cannon, what are the potential outcomes?
Exactly. She should get a very harsh mocking response along the lines of “up yours you unqualified political hack”.
She’s as embarrassing as Ken Paxton.
She is a stain on the University of Michigan, perhaps their worst graduate in history? name a more evil wolverine...
Biden should cite presidential immunity, and order both volumes be released to the public...
Great idea! Biden could even pardon the two Mar-a-Lardo minions just to stop Trump from doing it after Jan 20, JUST TO GET THE FACTS OUT.
Smith should have dropped the charges against all three, so both reports could be released. It was obvious that nothing was going to come of the case.
This 'sticking to the rules' in the face of this is not serving justice.
Agreed. It just came to me today: 🍊💩🤡 will pardon the two minions and make them MAGA heroes. Why not steal 🍊’s thunder on the pardons and release the reports now?

Indeed. So tired of Dems taking a soup spoon to a knife fight and then acting surprised that they get their asses handed to them.
He absolutely can do that. I read it elsewhere too.
Perhaps I’m mistaken but I haven’t seen such partisan judgeship since the late Fifties … in the South … about civil rights matters
Cannon is essence of tiresome and illogic decision-making. She brings to mind "Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?" Except she's no Thomas Becket. Ever. God help us all.
Again, I lived through the Fifties … don’t wanna go back.
Yes sir. Understood and agree
And walks backwards out of the throne room.
I knew there was More to this story, and boy ohh boy, you answered a lot of my questions, Chris, Thank You, and will reStack ASAP 💯👍🇺🇸
Somebody just needs to leak the report. Respecting the rule-of-law is now just hypothetical.
EXACTLY!!!! The GQP scum give zero shits about the law. Screw them hard.
Oh, for crying out loud! Who died and made her King? Surely, this idiocy makes her easy to overrule? Perhaps she is auditioning for her Supreme Court gig?
Exactly so. Remember, with trmp it’s all about the show. Cannon is giving him one. She’s been living her audition.
I have personally had people in patronizing tones (as others had people told them) tell me that Judge Cannon has not acted unethically. At some point, it gets rather hard to believe.

And release the reports!
Someone somewhere needs to finally say, "Just fuck off lady. .This ain't your thing."
So, I completely understand your position on this matter. And agree FWIW you are correct. Cannon is out of bounds.

Love it! Dems need to start playing by MAGA rules, instead of always being taken for fools.
Garland won't do it. Smith has "resigned" - note how the media did not report til after the fact? Biden however can do it himself, he mandates Garland to do it. And it's done. Simple.
Exactly. Just taunt the a-holes in the Robert’s Kangaroo court to manufacture some twisted reason why their utterly BS immunity “ruling” doesn’t apply to Biden.
If the US had a functioning court system , Cannon would not be in it..
If Cannons order is invalidated no one can be held in civil city tempt for violating it. They could be found in criminal contempt but Biden could pardon them as Trump did for Arpaio.
