    Just a snippet:

    “A retired federal judge is among those [asking an appeals court](https://apps.npr.org/documents/document.html?id=25091477-cannon-reassmt-brf-as-) to reassign former President Trump’s indictment on charges of mishandling classified documents case to a new judge.

    In documents filed with the 11^(th) Circuit Court of Appeals, two groups of legal experts and former government officials say U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon should be removed from the case.

    Former federal judge Nancy Gertner and two legal scholars, Stephen Gillers and James Sample say rulings by Judge Cannon and her numerous delays have raised “well-founded concerns that she may be biased against the Government’s case and unable to manage that case impartially.” They’re seeking permission to file an amicus brief.”

    Legal experts?

    Anyone who isn’t a Russian agent wants Judge Cannon removed from the bench.

    I want her disbarred. My guess is she’s angling for a scotus appointment if Trump takes office. That can never happen.

  4. I’m confident she’ll be removed from the case. Cannon served her purpose and did what Trump wanted her to do. He doesn’t need her anymore and really doesn’t care what happens to her now.

  5. Shocking as it might seem….good old Clerence oversees issues with the 11th circuit. So, I see this going pretty much nowhere unless the “people” demand changes. VOTE, vote for congress people (house and senate) who are reasonable and will help to rid us of these corrupt jokers. “They” (the heritage foundation goons) are not necessarily for Trump, they are for whoever gives them the power over the people they desire. Trump is the useful idiot of the moment, the rest of them need to go (Donalds, Scott x2, Rubio, Vance, Johnson, FRJ, Comer, Stefanik, Mace, Greene, Bobert, McConnell, Cotton, Cruz…the list goes on). If they are on your ballot between now and 2028, vote NOPE to all of them. Let’s reset this choose your own adventure chapter.

  6. We already have a national security risk in Trump. We sure don’t need another one on the bench.

    I still don’t understand how she was able to insert herself into it in the first place.
