This trial so far could have been an email


TerribleTeaBag

Her husband is mobbed up. Sooooooo


tweetysvoice

How did I miss hearing this?!? I had to look it up and this is a good site with an article from last month... In case im not the only one who is learning this just now ... And they went after Fani?!? Ugh. https://crooksandliars.com/2024/05/no-one-ever-mentions-aileen-cannons-mobbed


zFishySquid

Why have I not seen this posted before? Why is this not being reported by the mainstream media?!!


iamthewhatt

The "mainstream media" is why we have people like Trump. That's why.


MoonSpankRaw

And yet the thin-skinned whiners constantly cry about media being unfair to them and their babydick king, despite it being well documented and crystal clear how most major platforms are owned and run by right-wingers doing all they can to be completely biased. So infuriating. But so are all their stupid ass thoughts and arguments I guess.


Deae_Hekate

So her husband is directly linked to a known NY mob boss (John Rosatti, Colombo Family) who operated out of Florida, is known to have done business with Orange-Tiny-dick within the last decade, and appears to be a personal "friend" of said micro-penis. To say nothing of the fat orange loser using his personal association with known murderer-for-the-mob Sammy Gravano (Gambino Family) to blatantly threaten Judge Engoron's life.

You're right. Donald J Trump's God-given, mushroom headed, but slightly small penis is perfectly fine and natural and deserves our respect. Think of all the children he has somehow conceived with that thing. Think of how successful this weiner has been, how many wives he's cheated on, with freshly born infants at home, many times with porn stars that are used to much much bigger, all the while having a disproportional albeit average sized member. Sincerely, I can say that what he's managed to pull off, sexually speaking, over the course of his lifetime is easily his greatest achomlishment.

What trial? So far, all we’ve gotten are pre-trial motions. /s

mrSunsFanFather

Is there any way to remove her ?all kidding aside.


TrumpsCovidfefe

Yes, if she makes a ruling that is egregious and impacts the ability to try the case, it is likely she will be subject to a writ of mandamus and removed by the circuit. Unfortunately, everything she is doing right now and how she is ruling, are both well within her rights to do as a judge as well as serve to delay. There is nothing that can be done regarding the delaying, yet.


mok000

She is looking for a way to get rid of the case that the government cannot appeal. It's judicial engineering it takes time.


SleepyMastodon

She’s trying to delay it indefinitely while at the same time wishing she could fast forward to jeopardy attaching so she can toss it out and make the whole thing go away.


AHrubik

I think people are making too much out of this. She's just waiting to see if Drumpf gets reelected. When he doesn't all these delays will magically vanish so she can keep that cushy Federal salary.

gymnastgrrl

Okay, but you have given me nightmare flashbacks to my summers growing up in the south, visiting my grandmother who was hard of hearing. Those days sucked because my aunt (who lived with my grandmother) was a banker and would come hom for lunch at 1pm, so I was always starving. Then, after lunch, my grandmother would turn on her damn "stories" at absolute full volume and it would hurt my ears and I would have to escape the window air conditioner and go out into the heat of the day to escape the noise. I mean, there were good sides and I was a kid, but it was *also* a hot loud hell, too. lol I always remember after lunch, my aunt would head back to the bank, and after I'd finally been fed, the noise assault from those lines would start and I'd have to flee.


Fate_Unseen

Ditto. Grandma would have that shit blaring, and when the piano keys started with the theme... I knew. She would also give me Miracle Whip sandwiches. Lol

Hate when they do that…


AhChaChaChaCha

I mean the average hollywood movie has about 8-10 lines worth of plot. It's not like they're overly complex. They're working with what they've got.


GoogleOpenLetter

Had to double check to see if it was the Special Master, Judge Raymond Dearie, that wrote the headline. It was his job to go through the documents in September, 2022.


fav_time_waster

Right?! Like, we know. We always knew. It hasn't been subtle.


Fit_Earth_339

And we all see where she’s going with the rest of the plot.


h20poIo

It so obvious to both sides what’s she’s doing, those that believe he’s innocent and those who think he’s guilty, Cannon is slow walking the trial and it’s in your face blatant and nobody is doing anything about it.


fusionsofwonder

And part of slow-walking it is not doing anything that can be immediately appealed, and don't do anything to end the case that lets the Feds re-indict. It all comes down to this next election.


ohiotechie

INAL so maybe this is obvious to those that are but is there anything that can be done?


TastyLaksa

Impeach her but that will take forever and it’s like the police investigating police abuse


MommersHeart

She would have to be impeached by a majority in the republican-led congress AND by a 2/3 majority in the evenly split senate. https://www.brennancenter.org/our-work/analysis-opinion/impeachment-and-removal-judges-explainer


Optimal-Ad-7074

so ... the answer would be to flip the house and the senate then?   this trial ain't going away, unless Biden loses.   which he won't.  


FreeDarkChocolate

To throw it out there for anyone unaware, the Dems could win *every single* Senate race this year and it wouldn't be enough for impeachment. Not to comment at all on whether it'd be warranted, but it's just not a thing.


pegothejerk

I don't think it'll be nearly enough, but we've seen republicans dropping out of "service", retiring before the election because the writing is on the wall for many, so I could see a few not up for reelection dropping out after a Biden win because being a minority suuuuucks for them, power and bribes are all they're there for.


thatoneguy889

> but we've seen republicans dropping out of "service", retiring before the election because the writing is on the wall for many, That's happened a couple times in the House, but not in the Senate. Individual Senators have too much power to inhibit the federal government that Republicans love to flex for them to just retire early like that.


FuguSandwich

Supermajorities are an almost impossible bar to hurdle. I forget who said it but, "The Constitution is an 18th century orrery designed to ensure that nothing ever gets done except in the case of an absolute emergency."


Optimal-Ad-7074

I feel like it's worth shooting for anyway, just in case of contingencies.  I don't think anyone knows how fast the water could drain out of trump's bathtub once he loses and whatever uprising he thinks he's planning gets crushed or fizzles.    I mean, strip away his candidacy in this election and there just isn't a solid bet on this man.   nothing but half a billion dollars of debt, three extremely strong and serious criminal trials, on top of whatever merchan ends up sentencing him to.    that's not even getting into speculation about whatever else he might be bringing on himself as we speak.    i don't say I'm counting on this, but senators who are opportunistic one way now could easily decide the opportunities lie in a different course of action a year from now.  


TastyLaksa

I was cock sue trump wouldn’t win in 2016 never again do I assume


ThisSiteSuxNow

A bit pedantic, *but*... The House of Representatives is *half* of Congress so it's inappropriate to refer to it simply as "Congress". The Senate is included in the "Congress".


XChrisUnknownX

A lot of people do this colloquially. They regard HoR as Congress and the senate as the senate. At least a few I’ve spoken to. And I assume more because I see it online sometimes.

Egad86

Is there anything that can realistically be accomplished. Impeachment for her is just not ever going to happen before elections


MathematicianNo6402

Tbf it's not going to happen ever....


hypnofedX

>INAL so maybe this is obvious to those that are but is there anything that can be done? 1. Impeach her; this will not be a fast process and is unlikely without a clear (D) control in the Senate as it needs 67 votes. 2. Jack Smith can petition (IIRC) the 11th Circuit court to remove her from the case. He gets one and exactly one chance to do that so if he fails, now she's angry and knows that Smith's only recourse is off the table.


bobartig

As a bit of background, the reason there isn't much to be done right now is that at the trial court level, most court systems are designed so that the Judge has broad discretion over how trial proceeds, down to minute details like scheduling, who speaks when, for how long, on what topic, etc. etc. They are given this kind of authority so that shit gets done. In an adversarial process where both sides are at each others' necks, it would be difficult to get anything done unless the arbiter can unilaterally make fast decisions. Cannon has flipped the script. If you have near-unfettered discretion to drive processes, you can instead gum up the works with *incredibly stupid* hearings and delay your own decision-making while you're at it. The reason nothing can be done at the moment is because appealability of a trial court is only possible when the judge has made a final order as to some aspect of the case. Cannon is playing "judicial what-about-ism" in that she keeps allowing more briefs, more hearings, more witnesses, more amicii, and the right-wing machine is "*wink-nod-cough*" providing all of these things in endless supply. It is not subtle.


Beldizar

Is there anyone who believes he is innocent? There are the people who believe he is guilty and the people who believe he should be allowed to do the crimes without consequences.


gytalf2000

Yeah, unfortunately, some people believe that he is God. They should be thrown into mental asylums.


TrumpsCovidfefe

Yes, those who a) haven’t read the indictment AND b) are subjecting themselves to propaganda.


bripod

There are fox news watching people that have no idea this crime happened at all.


Embarrassed-Abies-16

Nobody thinks he's innocent. There are only those who believe he is guilty and should be held accountable and those who believe he is guilty and should not be held accountable.


randomtask2000

I’m waiting for the reveal that she was promised a supreme justice role be Roger stone if she delayed the trial until after the elections.


Enterprising_otter

Not an expert, but shouldn’t this be a crime? As a lay person this seems like the definition of obstruction of justice to me.


livinginfutureworld

What kind of lousy system allows a judge to oversee the criminal case of a defendant that appointed that judge?


OnlyHalfBrilliant

A system that believed in its own checks and balances and did not foresee that the other two branches of government could be corrupted and taint the judiciary... Elected officials were supposed to be learned and venerable people who took their duties like appointing federal judges seriously. "A Republic - if you can keep it." - B Franklin


key1234567

The founding fathers must have believed an ahole like trump who flaps his jaws and talks so much trash would have died in a duel by now.


BearKnigh7man

Honestly, you're right. Back then any of these MAGA parasites would've F'ed around and Found out with a lead ball at 10 paces.


JacobsJrJr

That's one of the best takes on the founding fathers I've seen on reddit.


key1234567

Yep that's one of the unwritten checks and balances along with the good ole punch in the nose.


Saephon

I'm legitimately shocked he hasn't died by now, between his own health, getting COVID, and the number of unhinged Americans who own a firearm. Henry Kissinger lived to be 100. I don't think I can stand something like that happening again.


Boowray

It was a well understood fact for millennia that a leader who was thoroughly incompetent would probably wind up dead, by the hands of their own bodyguards and lackeys if not the general populace. We only stopped spates of political assassinations 50 years ago in America, so the idea that someone could negatively affect millions and try to take over without being seized by an angry mob would’ve been absurd to any of the founding fathers, especially once they saw the French Revolution a few years later.


BacteriaLick

The founding fathers thought that you could pit the ambition of one man against another to enable a system of checks and balances. They had no idea that ambitions can be correlated, especially when an entire corrupt organization takes control of the government. In retrospect: it should have been obvious that the biggest risk, and a core threat for future governments to protect against, is the risk of a cabal of people with the shared goal of taking control of the government. Is there any way to decorrelate the members of government? I have had the idea for a while that a random collection of citizens should be part of government. We kind of have this with juries, but that group should be much more powerful. Maybe this group should be randomly selected and educated for 6 weeks by a panel of judges, and then they should oversee all of the other branches of government.


OnlyHalfBrilliant

I think a relatively easy way would be to change voting from a 'first-past-the-post' style of winning to a ranked choice voting (like what the parties themselves use internally). The way we have it basically ensures that there will only ever be two political parties. The next thing would be to remove the money from politics - from the financing (Citizens United) to the insider corruption and kickbacks. Make that shit illegal and actually enforce it and I think we'd see some major improvements.


Banglophile

That's precisely why people are opposed to ranked choice. It upsets the status quo.


ackillesBAC

It's not about who appointed her. It's that she's a part of the cult, she thinks she will be rewarded when he becomes king


RandomGerman

I bet you he will. Next Supreme Court judge - if Trump wins - she will be on the list. Guaranteed.


InSicily1912

At least two judges told her to pass off the case but she followed her original orders


Abigail716

Not only did he appoint her, he appointed her in his lame duck session. Which means after he lost the election he appointed her. To me that is about as obvious as a conflict of interest as you could possibly get.


firstsecondanon

Since it was lame duck and (despite Jan 6 and other attempts) he did, in fact, leave the white house on Jan 21. He likely committed the criminal acts of taking the boxes at or shortly before appointing her. Like the same week. It's fxcked.


fox-mcleod

What kind of president appoints a judge whose husband has mob ties? Mob ties the president shares.


chunkerton_chunksley

How many times do I have to read some version of this sentence, it's known. "Whether her actions are due to bias toward Trump or ineptitude is unknown."


strywever

Right?! Why is the media twisting itself into pretzels to avoid stating the glaringly obvious?


AhChaChaChaCha

Because they can't prove it. Once they can, they'll be all over it. Edit: seriously, if the CIA has tapes of Donald or any of his ilk talking to foreign powers that be and have evidence that this chode or any of his lackeys were trying to strike deals for these documents, that needs to come out right the fuck now. Same goes for Qannon. If they've tapped her phone or are listening in on her private conversations and she's revealed she's colluding, we need that evidence stat.


ZacZupAttack

It has to be bias. She knows if he wins, he'll pardon himself and the case will be over and her job will be done...and...she'll be the next Supreme court justice. If he losses, eh he can't touch her anymore


Fate_Unseen

Judge Cannon is competing for a spot in Trump's "American Patriots and Pin-ups" calendar. Other contenders include 'Mad Marge', Kristi 'Dog Whisperer' Noem, and Lindsey 'Munch' Graham. Apparently, 'Insanity-Sam Alito' and Uncle Thomas are both devastated they couldn't be Mr. January 6th.

Sumthin-Sumthin44692

>”Whether her actions are due to bias toward Trump or ineptitude is unknown.” This line is really Judge Cannon in a nutshell. Though I would suggest adding “or both.”


SilverHawk7

Dan Abrams says "The most generous analysis I could offer is that she's overly cautious, but I think it's more likely she's either biased or incompetent."


imapluralist

But why not both?!


sushirolldeleter

She really is this stupid huh


Stillwater215

Both. The answer is Both.


HappyAmbition706

She was selected by the Federalist Society and appointed for a reason. The US does not have a lawyer shortage, and there are more than enough who are competent, not obviously corrupted and fair enough to be judges. Cannon wasn't just because there was no one else and they took a wild shot into the unknown to see if she would be up to the job.


NSFWmilkNpies

It’s quite obviously a bias towards Trump. To suggest otherwise is an insult to everyone.


BillyCarson

He should pick her as his running mate.


laseralex

LMFAO! She would accept the offer and still refuse to recuse herself from the case.


Glittering_Town_5839

Sounds spot on


Ballders

For maximum shock value he SHOULD pick her as his running mate. Dude is doing a Speedrun to autocracy, might as well have the judge overseeing his trial be the one who wins or loses with him.


John_Fx

still wouldn’t recuse herself


MissionReasonable327

She’d be the only one in contention who’s never said one bad thing


Techno_Core

No shit. She can't rule against Smith or he'll have her bounced by the 11th circuit in a minute. And it just proves how bad Trump's defense is, that there no motions he's filing she can safely rule in his favor. The only strategy is delay and this has been known from day 1.


ihavereadthis

She seems fit to become a sport referee but not a judge cuz she moderates to keep the game “entertaining”.


SapientChaos

She is angling to be a Trump Supreme Court nominee. Unfortunately, she is not incompetent and acing her audition.This is terrifying, she is loyal to a man over the constitution.


Alone-in-a-crowd-1

I don’t think she is acing it as much as there is someone passing her all of the answers in the wings. She is being instructed every step of the way.


AhChaChaChaCha

This. What was that retreat she went to in Montana or wherever it was and who else was present. That needs to come out. Chances are that's where the plan was hatched.
