Hey...what kind of party is this? there's no booze and only one hooker!

I mean yeah if you don't pay your bills you don't get your service Mike, how could this possibly come as a surprise? Maybe you shouldn't have spent those millions on a free speech social media site built on a wordpress type system, just throwing that out there

That trial was never going to go to trial before the election anyways. It's basically all on SCOTUS and the J6 trial at this point.

Ordinary person steals one classified document - in prison forever within days.
Trump steals hundreds - hmm maybe we’ll have a trial sometime in a few years, no biggie.

This would only apply if you then alerted the authorities and got the murderer convicted when they tried to "get you."

Is there anything that can be done about this? Logically, if someone refuses to do their job, there should be a way to get around it.

This ties in with a discussion my mom and I were having yesterday where she suggested that the HFC could just not allow anything out of committee and stall the spending agreement that way. That seems so implausible to me though. There has to be a way around it.

I imagine eventually they can appeal things up the ladder, but I'm sure judges have a ton of leeway for scheduling or giving defendants more time to 'prepare their case'.

She also knows the more she stonewalls and sabotages the case, the more likely she'll get appointed to an appeals court or SCOTUS by republicans. She has literally nothing to lose. Even if she sabotages the case in the most comical obvious way possible, the more she shows her loyalty to the republican party, the more she'll be rewarded.

No. Judges have a lot of latitude in how they manage trials which is why when Cannon drew this case everyone groaned. While rulings like this can be appealed, there's zero chance that even a friendly appeals court is going to force things through. On top of that, Cannon is going to be on the bench for another fifty years. The feds will have to deal with her constantly and they're only going to play the appeal card when it matters.

If a judge is nakedly corrupt like Cannon is (or I guess she could be a complete idiot who doesn't even have a layman's understanding of the law or judicial proceedings whose lack of knowledge in those areas always benefits Trump directly, but nakedly corrupt is the more likely option), there's a shitton they can do to wreck a trial with effectively no recourse. There's not even sanctions that could be applied.

Dragging out the trial forever was the obvious way that she would gently caress with things, so there is no surprise here.

The Florida case was always doomed in my mind. As soon as Canon was assigned it was doomed.

I think the DoJ knew that too thats why they have the DC one.

As I recall the documents were also stored in NJ, so a new jurisdiction might get a new judge assigned to the case

The most amazing thing is that Trump straight up hosed with the US intelligence apparatus and apparently they're fine with that? The horrible stuff they've done to American citizens in the name of national security is uncountable but Trump straight up steals and probably sold secrets, nothing.
