Fire her. She’s compromised and a Trump appointee that should have been recused.
How?
Wouldn’t she need to be to be impeached by the House? The house is controlled by the GOP. Even if a few republicans wanted to remove her, you would still need the GOP speaker to bring this to the floor.
The prosecutor would have to ask for her removal, which would be difficult to accomplish for sure.
I’m sure he already has enough ammo to do so. That whole jury instruction thing was FUCKED.
The prosecutor can request that she be removed from the case, but that’s extreme and, if fails, leaves him with a hostile judge that is also even more empowered than before.
Oh no! She’ll make fascists more fascist!
It’d be nice if we had retention elections for these judges. The executive branch nominates judges and the legislative confirms them, but I’d like to see a choice on my ballot every so many years after a judge has been installed asking whether that judge should stay in office or not.
Funny enough, Wikipedia mentions how scholars are opposed to retention elections because the judiciary is supposed to be the most removed from public opinion and introducing that would lead to special interest groups swaying outcomes and generally breeding corruption. The squeeze is that we’re already seeing corruption in courts anyways because of the very branches that install judges in the first place. All you have to do is look at this article or the Supreme Court.
Now the real question would be if Supreme Court justices should be up for retention. That’s a rabbit hole I’m not sure what the consequences would lead to. Seems like term limits are still appropriate.
Couldn’t the bar take her license away?
Justice delayed is justice denied.
That is the point, yes.
I want to THANK Aileen Canon for making it LEGAL to STEAL TOP SECRET UNITED STATES DEFENSE DOCUMENTS!
So, no laws for the rich and they aren’t even pretending.

As you get older, the internet remains the same cluster of ages. There are probably people on here twenty years younger than you.
Yeah - my wealthy ex’s family bought him expensive lawyers, so he got to ignore multiple court orders during the divorce, while mine took $3k to do fuck all. “Justice” is contingent on being able to afford good lawyers.
Listen, I’ve seen this in every thread. The judges are just being extra careful so they can make sure the case doesn’t get thrown out because it’s a highly sensitive subject.
Four years just wasn’t enough time. You have to be patient about these things. Give us another Friedman Unit or two to settle things out.
/s I hope? Otherwise you know she was appointed by trump right.
They’re trying to conflate a right-wing judge’s bias with those biG bAd LibErAlS who defend Garland’s meticulous albeit slow investigation and hand-off to Jack Smith I guess.
Ladies and gentlemen, the party of law and order. We know who will be selected as the new supreme court judge soon…
Who’s the president right now? Wonder what he’s up to. Wonder if he’s fixing this. Wonder if he’s anything better than the capitalistic fascist of American conservatism.
I wish we had better civics classes in schools. It would be nice to skip past all the 13-year-olds’ spicy takes on why this judge is somehow Biden’s fault.
Republicans have the majority at the moment. A president isn’t a dictator, though Trump is planning to become one.
Well if the supreme Court will give presidents immunity prior November, so that Trump can participate, then Biden just has to order a hit on him. because, you know presidents are immune… Problem solved
If Trump is actually, as so many claim, a threat to our way of government then he’s a domestic enemy.
I guess maybe that’s all just trivial talk though.
What would you suggest he do specifically?
Seems like you want to say something there little buddy. Be brave, say what you want to say instead of asking questions.
Those questions are extremely easily translated into statements:
Biden is President right now
He’s doing nothing to fix thisGosh my brain hurts after all that generous reading.
I agree with that. How is that relevant to the root of this conversation?
Just because the Republicans are shit doesn’t mean that the Democrats are not also shit.
Who’s the president right now?
Vladimir Putin, according to the memes.
So, it’s corruption all the way down I guess.
Shit starts upstream and flows all the way down
trickle down corruption
The only thing Reagan actually accomplished!
ahhh thats not fair, he accomplished destroying the foundations of American Democracy.
Friendly reminder to vote for Biden this election. It’s more important now than ever.
I will but, god, if I hold my nose any harder, I’ll pinch it right off.
Northern neighbor here, thank you. I don’t want to see Trump back, but am also glad I don’t have to vote in your elections. Not that I hate Biden, but your Democrats make our conservatives look like Communists…
Not even remotely surprising.
The only surprising bit is that it took this long. I pretty much figured she would do that out of the gate.
She had to let the clock run out a while first. Can’t have this trial going on while he’s president after all.
By dragging it out this long, she made it impossible for Trump’s other cases in Georgia and DC to be scheduled.
Where are all those people that said Cannon “wouldnt ruin her career” doing something like this after it was pointed out that Trump appointed her?
Anybody know of any groups organizing a general strike? We are gonna have to stop the flow of money to these fucking vampires.
Probably not quite what your looking for, but I literally just came across this article about a potential general strike in 4 years:
“UAW president Shawn Fain on May Day calls on unions to prepare for strike in 2028”
“We are fully preparing to strike on May Day 2028,” Shawn Fain wrote in a proposal on May Day, or International Workers Day.
Fain said it is the only way workers can “win universal healthcare and the right to retire with dignity.”
[In an op-ed (https://inthesetimes.com/article/may-day-2028-general-strike-working-class) for progressive publication In These Times, Fain said the union’s recent auto contracts were all aligned to expire on April 30, 2028. He called on other unions to do the same as way to mass power to “reshape the economy into one that works for the benefit of everyone.”
“They want us to believe that corporate bosses gave workers decent wages, benefits and safer working conditions out of the goodness of their hearts. That justice and equality for people of color, for immigrants, for women and for queer communities were gifts benevolently handed down from above,” Fain wrote.
“But we know the truth. Every law passed, every union formed and contract won—every improvement made at the workplace—has been won through the tireless sacrifice of the working class.”
4 more YEARS from now??? Feels too little too late.
Judge Aileen Cannon has indefinitely postponed former President Donald Trump’s classified documents trial in Florida, citing significant issues around classified evidence that would need to be worked out before the federal criminal case goes to a jury.
In an order Tuesday, Cannon cancelled the May trial date and did not set a new date.
This is a developing story and will be updated.
You know, it may be because it was a military court, but Chelsea Manning seemed like she got a reasonably speedy trial. Pre-trial hearing in April to sentencing in August? Plenty of classified documents in that one, too.
It’s not like this is the first case in US history that’s had classified material involved. Ridiculous.
America loves its criminals. It bends over backward for them if they’re rich.
No no no. This is just a very special exception to the Rules Based International Order we’ve always had.
Normally, America is very good about prosecuting plutocrats. But this time Russia stopped us. We just have to beat Russia. Only then can we prosecute Donald Trump.
Well, there’s a shocker. But not to worry! He’ll surely not get away with the next crime he commits.
You gotta grab the courts by their judges, when your rich enough they let you do it.
