Democrats raise concerns about Trump-appointed judge handling documents case

13 Jun 2023 ~~ By Alexander Bolton

Senior Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee are raising concerns about what role Trump-appointed federal judge Aileen Cannon will have in handling the case the Department of Justice is bringing against former President Trump.
Cannon, a member of the conservative Federalist Society who was confirmed to sit on the district court for the Southern District of Florida shortly after the 2020 election, made headlines last year when she ruled that an independent arbiter must review the 13,000 government records seized from Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home in August.
Her decision was later struck down by a three-judge panel made up from members of the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals.
Trump was indicted last week on 37 federal counts that accused him of violating the Espionage Act and conspiring to obstruct justice.
Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) said Cannon’s record overseeing the federal investigation of Trump’s handling of top-secret documents raises serious questions about her neutrality.

Blumenthal went further than Durbin, calling on Cannon to recuse herself.
“In the total scheme of things, I’d advise her to recuse, because I think that she starts behind in light of her previous rulings, which have been rejected soundly by the court of appeals,” he added.
Cannon won’t preside over the preliminary hearing in Miami on Tuesday afternoon, where Trump will be arraigned.
Magistrate judge Jonathan Goodman will handle some procedural matters while Cannon, who was selected at random, will preside over the trial.


Commentary:
Trump can only be tried of bogus and fake charges when Democrats get to have a total control over judge and jury.
Now, they are going to increase their bribes and threats to get the outcome they desire.
Florida is not D.C. and getting a jury biased against Trump will be difficult.
The judicial branch under the Bai Dung administration has become just as political as the other branches. The problem with that is they adjudicate law, which should never be politically motivated.

I am counting on this judge to set the court case for AFTER the November, 2024 election.
Trump can play the useful foil until then.

Yes, Democrats want law enforcement weaponized in their favor. So, obviously they are upset that their kangaroo court doesn't have a kangaroo judge.
 
Let's give her a chance. She has the 11th Circuit Court looking over her shoulder. Remember they kicked her ass twice hard for making stupid rulings in the documents investigation.
 
CNN is already saying that she isn't experienced enough to handle this complex case.

Which means she needs to stay or Trump is really fucked.
