      Or just impeached. Federal Judges have been impeached before-in the 19th century and I don’t know if any were actually convicted and removed by the Senate, but the Constitution does say “The President, Vice President, and all civil Officers of the United States shall be removed from office on Impeachment…and Conviction” and the Supreme Court never ruled Judges didn’t count.

      @@babyvaughan Unfortunately not-the various state and federal Bar associations regulate what Lawyers are allowed to practice, but when it comes to Judges they can only advise the people appointing them that they are unqualified for the position. Which they did, but the GOP ignored in their haste to get as many conservatives on the bench as possible…and the MAGA wing saw not as a “bug” but a “feature”…

      Lawyers, as well as Judges, have a code of ethics that they swear to. The various segments of the codes are specific and strong. They are not suggestions but strict rules of conduct. Apparently Judge Cannon did not bother to read them. Instead she chose to follow the trump code of ethics, which should be cause for immediate removal and disbarment.

Thats from the case where there was secret private server loaded with classified materials that was full of foreign countries visiting server all after hiring this persons husband to do a speach and donation to the you know who fund then she would give them pass word to view whatever they like from patent raiding to top secret classified materials but its ok she destroyed it after it was suepeanerd by congress burnt her home office and smashed all the blackberries so nothing more anyone could do so they closed investigation and sugar coated it to public and it worked lol. Weaponized doj is a slippery slope more than likely fbi got nothing of any real importance and its more about trial by media and slander. Just wait and it will be all hype as usual then silence about everything they speaculated on without even saying boy we got that all wrong sorry turns out it was fbi wrong doing

And if you dont find anything then by god you will plant something to make sure he goes to jail. Remember a few bad apples spoil the bunch and thats why law enforcement has to be defunded.....but not the fbi because they have integrity, like when they changed that guys answers on the 302 form in order to indict him, like when they offerred to go easy on nassar in exchange for jobs with the Olympic security team, like when they told all of social media to not talk about the biden laptop because it was a russian hoax even when it wasnt.

      This case should not be heard at all. Trump a civilian possessed government documents (NOT HIS, THE PEOPLE OF THE U.S.)
      Was asked for them back several times but deceived the government ( obstruction) in saying Trump gave everything back when in FACT he did not. So they served a search warrant for secret documents he said he returned, and found them. Any other civilian would have been arrested on the spot when the search warrant was served and evidence was found.
      Trump has no standing in this case. This judge is way over her head and DOJ has to appeal this.
      Btw all you Trump sycophants and cultists, I dislike Hillary very much but this doesn't even come close to comparing her. This is egregiously worse than anything she has allegedly done. This is seriously compromising the security of this country. If your a Putin fan then yes you are cheering these actions by Trump but please don't tell us you love this country.

    Aileen Cannon is a Republican who joined the Federalist Society before she had even graduated from law school. Prior to Trump's nomination - to a lifetime seat on a Federal district court! - she had NEVER been a judge. Anywhere. Ever. She LITERALLY had never even ruled on a parking ticket citation before she was elevated to the Federal bench. If she were competent or incorruptible, Trump never would have nominated her and Senate Republicans never would have confirmed her. What's more, she's young, so she can continue ignoring our laws and screwing our country for DECADES to come.

      For most of them it's just about ratings, Trump's insane spectacle is more "entertaining" and more controversial usually so it draws bigger audiences so they love to cover him - the crazier and dumber the better.
      Biden isn't as "entertaining" to the masses and his "base" tends to be more moderate/centrist folks who specifically love the fact they don't have to deal with the craziness with Biden and can be comfortable not hearing about him every day knowing he and his competent staffers are doing their jobs professionally like they're supposed to be.
      Biden is starting to embrace the "Dark Brandon" meme clearly and he is getting his base and all democracy defenders/lovers fired up a bit more for him so they may have actually done alright covering it but they go based on previous ratings typically and his calmer "get along" phase didn't draw much attention.
      For "news" networks it shouldn't be about ratings or profits at all of course, especially for something this serious, but good luck changing that now, haha.

Unfortunately, (a) under the Code the judge themselves get to make the call about whether their "impartiality might reasonably be questioned" and (b) as Captain Barbossa explains: ua-cam.com/video/k9ojK9Q_ARE/v-deo.html

So again why are they talking about what Trump did and not the actual important news. O that's right they're all covering for each other and stupid people who hate a man because the news tells you to make y'all loose track. Bless y'all heart. One day many like the people in this video comment sections will hang their heads in shame on what they did to a man who was trying to expose them. That's why they hate him so much. Trump was absolutely loved before he ran. The man got us out of war, raised jobs that Obummer said he would need a magic wand for. Y'all fucking Biden voters owe us gas money. O you just wait.... y'all gonna be shocked. 46 out of 50 states already said they found fraud in their states election, why is Steve not talking about this 🤔 O that's right, it's easy to cover up what they did when they own the media aka Operation Mockingbird/MK ultra and they're preaching to fucking stupid people who do absolutely NO research and only regurgitates what the media tells them. They count on the people to be lazy and stupid... that's how they somehow still have supporters. Soon, very soon.

      Biden knows there's nothing "semi" about it. But he is the President of all people, even the idiots. He knows that the way to get idiots to see the truth isn't to show them the truth directly, since the idiots can't handle that. Instead he's gently nudging them toward the truth. First, he can lead the people who are just on the edge of idiot status to the truth by giving them the "semi" idea, letting them find their own way to the truth from the midpoint.
      It's like when you talk to little kids, when you have to meet them in the middle, and once you've brought them to the middle they can start to see the truth from there and come the rest of the way on their own. If you tell a kid "there is no monster in your closet", the kid feels rejected and not believed, which makes them less likely to believe anyone who tells them the truth. But if instead you say, "do you think that maybe the monster might have gotten tired of living in your closet and gone away? It's kind of a small closet for a monster to live in forever." And then the kid starts to realize that there was never a monster in the closet at all. That's important, because when it's their own idea, they're more likely to understand and accept the truth and not fall back into the imaginary side. Similarly, something like "do you think that maybe it could be just a little semi-fascist?" can lead a semi-idiot to the understanding that it's completely fascist. Then we'll be left with only the full-on idiots to deal with.
      Biden is a grandpa. Grandpas know how to get kids to understand that there's no monster in the closet. Now he has to do the same for the brainwashed idiots, or at least the semi-idiots.

      Though a couple have not gone in his favor, I doubt there are any that aren't a little tainted. Then you get ones like her that are so blatant that even Bill Barr says her decision is wrong.

      The one that were rated qualified seem not to be such a problem (see election cases). The main problem are the judges labelked unqualified.

    Why was this decision left solely in the hands of one obviously crooked and biased judge? Can't there be a board of counter judges acting as a voice of reason? This mafia needs to be put down.

      As Stephen described, she was appointed by Trump for the jurisdiction in which he was committing his crimes. So in other words the reason it went to this Judge is because it was planned that way and Trump having been President had a very unique position to take advantage of his office. As for a "board of counter judges" yes I believe the prosecution is going to be able to appeal this ruling.

      She's biased, she's crooked, and she's inexperienced : appointed 2 years ago. This chick may not realise it yet, but she's just thrown her whole career down the drain. She should learn to the bitter end what being loyal to Trump means.

    Can a judge be charged as an accomplice? Cannon’s ruling itself is the evidence. The whole “reputational harm” thing should, at the very least, result in mandatory remedial law classes.
