“District Judge Aileen #Cannon appeared skeptical of Donald #Trump’s arguments that #JackSmith’s appointment as special counsel didn’t meet constitutional requirements, but she also displayed what has been a common distrust of the prosecutors during a day-long session Friday..

🤦🏻‍♀️🙄…Cannon did not say when she would rule on the issue.” #legal

Judge Aileen Cannon pushes Trump’s lawyer to defend claim that special counsel is part of a ‘shadow government’

One day after it was reported that two federal judges urged Judge Aileen Cannon not to oversee the classified documents case against Donald Trump, three days of hearings began that could determine the future of the charges against the former president.

@cookiesinheaven @GottaLaff Maybe not, if her primary goal is to delay the trial past the election. At that she's doing perfectly.

@BruceMirken @cookiesinheaven @GottaLaff

I predict she was picked for appointment by Trümp because he (& Putin) possess criminal info on Cannon’s husband &/or father.

My magic 8 ball sez dat !

@GottaLaff I'm guessing she'll put it off until after the election. Just a wild guess. If not this, something else. Whatever keeps him from accountability appears to be the best choice in her book. I worked with classified through my entire govt career and this just burns me every day. It really burns.

@Nonya_Bidniss @GottaLaff Same. The post-2016 annual security refresher training sessions suddenly became online only. Couldn't help but think the trainers didn't want to deal with any uncomfortable audience questions about the shit going on in the White House at the time.

@GottaLaff I know this is CNN and not Laffy, so will say that that first paragraph is bulllshit reporting. She 'appears...' 'but displayed a distrust'...

@GottaLaff
One would think Dump would be smart enough to issue some weak complaint about Cannon, just so it wasn't SO GLARING that she's the only judge he hasn't targeted.

But I guess we're past the point where he feels he even needs to pretend.
