What is going on here? Trumps favorite cannon at work again? Doesn't this somehow violate free speech and such? Can upper courts kill her decision?


@sonhouse

From the article you posted:

However, two legal groups who favor release of the report — American Oversight and the Knight First Amendment Institute — sought to formally intervene in the dismissed criminal case to argue in support of disclosure. Cannon denied them permission to do so. The groups’ appeal of that decision remains pending at the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals.

What is going on here???? That is Exactly what I wrote you months ago when Jack Smith appeared and set his sights on the individual Donald Trump, to bring his ass down. All 3 of these vague-color people, named in this paragraph, went after the orange-colored Trump with vengeance. Do you think they were all innocent of that, or do you think that maybe at least one of them had nefarious intentions???

AI Overview
Donald Trump has been prosecuted by several officials across different jurisdictions. Key figures include Special Counsel Jack Smith (federal cases), Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (hush money case), and Fulton County DA Fani Willis (Georgia election case)

Have you ever seen this quote:
The phrase "Give me the man and I will give you the case against him" (often paraphrased as "arrest him, we will figure out a charge later"😉 is most commonly attributed to Lavrentiy Beria, the Soviet secret police chief under Joseph Stalin, or Andrey Vyshinsky, a Stalinist jurist.


C'mon, Shouse. Pick it up let's see some real debating,,,,,or just mix up your standard stuff and re-serve it.

If it's taxpayer funded, it better be released. Or I want my money back.

Eileen cannon, the activist judge who only looks out for Trump's best interest.

I guess it doesn't matter Judge Cannon does what Trump wants, she is one corrupt judge and got disciplined THREE times by REAL judges. She has very little experience in law and just happens to be a dyed in the wool Magate.

Not after DoJ's redactions, no.

Of course we did. The door was slammed shut in 2024. From the article:

"Cannon lit into Smith for a “brazen stratagem”: compiling the detailed report even after she ruled in July 2024
his appointment as special counsel was unconstitutional and dismissed the case against Trump and two co-defendants.

A girl actually claimed exactly that but of course the Trump FBI squashed that one just like they are unredacting the names and addresses and drivers license numbers of the VICTIMS and now we find there are not thousands of entries with Trumps name but over a MILLION times folks mentioned Trump and that is with 3 MILLION files to go.
But you will still support Trump even if they had photos of trump fking a 12 year old girl, you would just say they were fake.
