On Friday, District Judge Aileen Cannon issued a new order in the Donald Trump classified documents case adding to the mountain of evidence that she is firmly in the former presidentās pocket. Trump appointed Cannon in 2020 and the Senate confirmed her appointment in the days after he lost the 2020 election. Itās deeply offensive to the rule of law for judges to bend the law to benefit those who put them on the bench. Sadly, Cannon does just that.
Cannonās new ruling rejected special counsel Jack Smithās entirely standard request that she order Trump to state whether he intends to rely on an āadvice of counselā defense ahead of the trial, currently scheduled for May 20. Advance notice of the defense helps expedite a trial because defendants asserting it need to provide additional discovery to prosecutorsāraising the defense means that defendants must disclose all communications with their attorneys, as the defense waives the attorneyāclient privilege.
Judge Cannonās brief order asserted that Smithās motion was ānot amenable to proper consideration at this juncture, prior to at least partial resolution of pretrial motionsā and further discovery.
Sound innocuous? Itās anything but. Instead, itās part of a pattern weāve already seen of Cannon laying the groundwork for delaying Trumpās trialāuntil itās too late for a jury to be empaneled and the case tried to verdict before the election.
LOL people actually downvoted you for saying that you donāt have or like guns.
I was actually about to upvote for that first paragraph, but downvoted because of the rest.
And hey, I mean, ACAB, Iām not defending cops. Cops are selected for stupidity and aggression, trained to murder, and held above the law. Even the best of them are still part of a system that is oppressive by design.
But what that trainer was saying was true, and an important thing to acknowledge for anybody who is likely to be in life-and-death situations - firefighters, paramedics, even social workers. Go to the Snopes link he included and read the whole thing.
Sex is a normal reaction to danger. It doesnāt mean that cops are going out and killing people just to have better sex, thatās stupid. Theyāre killing people, yes, for lots of reasons, but thatās not one of them. Itās almost as dumb as the QAnon quacks talking about adrenochrome.
Americans are blood thirsty, genocidal monsters. What did you expect? Lmaoooooooooo
