#BREAKING via Anna Bower: #WompWomp

JUST IN: Judge #Cannon DENIES #Trump’s motion to dismiss the classified #documents case based on the presidential records act.

In the same order, Judge Cannon also denies the special counse #JackSmith’s request for a prompt ruling on jury instructions prior to trial.

She calls the special counsel's request "unprecedented and unjust."🤦🏻‍♀️ #legal

2/ Do it.

Via MaddowShow:

From MSNBC legal correspondent Lisa Rubin on this new Judge Cannon ruling: "You might see the special counsel's office taking this order as the basis for seeking that writ of mandamus about Judge Cannon and perhaps seeking her recusal here because for the 1st time in such sharp language she is really showing a bias or a prejudice against them."

@GottaLaff I am wondering about the part of the denial of Trump's motion where she says she is denying it "pretrial", suggesting to me she would rule differently once the trial has started.

@GottaLaff

So if the special counsel does file a request for writ, does it go to the same panel of 3 judges who dunked the fuck on loosey cannon in 2022?

@artemesia No. Luck of the draw again.

Please do it immediately! Also please investigate and remove this horrible corrupter from the bench. When you go into her and her husband's background, it's amazing that she was ever confirmed. The Senate is NOT doing their job at all. Ten Dems voted for this POS during the transition. Without them, she would not have been confirmed and we would not be in this mess. 🤬

@GottaLaff I've seen other legal commenters saying that it is easier to get a judge removed from a case for incompetence than for bias, but I suppose the appeal could say that it's obviously one or the other.

@GottaLaff@mastodon.social avatar

@not2b We’ll see.

What are the chances that she's getting pressure and threats from TrumPutin's wannabe mobsters and that she secretly wants out, but can't just quit. This may be her process.

@MikeBon I doubt it

4/ Via Angry Staffer:

Until Cannon agrees to decide on the jury instructions related to the Presidential Records Act, I’m viewing this denial as a poison pill.

It feels like she’s trying to outmaneuver Jack Smith and seat a jury before he can appeal her awful instructions.

@GottaLaff Concur.

@GottaLaff

"I think 'complex case of first impression' signals her strategy, which reaffirms Smith's suspicions. She wants to have the jury instructions open enough that she can push decisions on the applicability of law off on them where settled law already exists, and letting the chaos of the debate write new law. She can wash her hands before the crowd, that way.

This isn't justice. This is politics using Cannon, at 10 paces.

Judge Training Wheels used the word "unjust" toward prosecutors?
Jack Smith is being "unfair" to her?
Stop, you're killing me

For Judge Cannon, the wheels of justice move slowly...and only in reverse.

@Wileymiller They don’t move for anyone but Trump

@GottaLaff she leaves open the possibility that she could, in the future, still apply her nutty ideas. This is far from over.

@StephanieMoore Yep. That’s in my thread 👍🏻

@GottaLaff This judge will take a step forward, and then several steps back... But then again, what do you expect from a TFG loyalist. All judge Cannon hasn't done yet is tattoo TFG'S face on hers... And this attempt on her part to look less of a Trump fanatic isn't working... Especially after she's done everything to make things easier for Donald Dumba*a... PS: I really feel for Jack Smith. He's literally in a nightmare situation...

@tersenurse@mastodon.social avatar

@GottaLaff Is Cannon denying Trump's motion to dismiss only so that she can wait until the trial actually starts and dismiss then, when the gov't can't appeal?

So, off to the 11th Circuit we go!

Which was the point, of course. And a good one.
