The 11th Circuit will reverse this then on to the SC.

 

Chaos if it doesn't, @East Village Poltergeist?

G's response before Cannon Law went over the rails.

"...That single-Justice concurrence—addressing an issue that Trump did not raise (See Sup. Ct. Tr. 33-34), that the parties did not brief, and that was not relevant to the question presented to, or decided by, the Court—neither binds this Court nor provides a sound basis to deviate from the uniform conclusion of all courts to have considered the issue that the Attorney General is statutorily authorized to appoint a Special Counsel..."

I’d reckon. If special prosecutors can see their cases decapitated like this, it’ll gum up the system.  I guess I never saw the problem with JS’ appointment, it’s been a routine practice forever.

I figured it was headed towards appeal regardless, though, given the state of play lately. I don’t know that the majority of SCOTUS would rule Trump’s way either, especially given the Nixon decision was unanimous…those tend to not be disturbed.

Dominoes begin to fall on Trump hoaxes, frauds, lawfare, and bogus criminal cases.

Trump’s future is bright. Has he been an as$? Yes, but he has changed. Saturday established him as a leader, will go down as one of the best Presidents. I expect some uncivil servants to be jumping off the ship soon.

We will see if he has changed or not. He is certainly holier now.

This ruling doesn't have anything to do with the merits of the case. 

I said is vs was a strong case.  I don’t think this is over but it certainly buys more time for Teflon Don.

Garland can appeal to the 11th circuit who've already shown previously they are not fans of Cannon's rulings.  That will likely end up in the SC.  More likely they will re-file the case with another judge/venue, likely DC.

Her opinion closely tracked the reasoning outlined by conservative Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas in a recent concurrence in a separate case against Trump.

Well that seals it. Any judicial opinion which mirrors the brilliant, thoroughly-objective mind of Clarence Thomas should be "immune" from criticism.

Yeah, I thought this is a strong case.  

It was the strongest of all the cases.  Cannon's technical decision not only pissed off the Democrats, but also the independents.  In my view she doesn't deserve the title Judge before her name.

His come to Jesus moment literally went into one ear and out the other.  He's back to normal.
