Description

In a move that again highlights why Judge Aileen Cannon should be recused from presiding over Donald Trump's federal prosecution in Florida, she refused to set a trial date during a hearing on Friday. This is inexplicable given that Jack Smith proposed a trial date of July 8th and Trump's lawyers proposed one for August 12th. This prompted Jack Smith's prosecutor to tell Judge Cannon that the one thing the parties seem to agree on is that there can be a summer trial date - which would at least get the case tried before the November presidential election. But Judge Cannon said she was "skeptical" of the case being ready to be tried this summer, even though Trump's lawyers said they could do it. The federal law requires that a judge "shall" recuse themself from presiding over a case "if their impartiality might reasonably be questioned." Judge Cannon's lack of impartiality was again on full display in that Florida courtroom on Friday.If you're interested in supporting our all-volunteer efforts, you can become a Team Justice patron at: / glennkirschner  If you'd like to support us and buy Team Justice and Justice Matters merchandise visit:https://shop.spreadshirt.com/glennkir...Check out Glenn's website at https://glennkirschner.com/Follow Glenn on:Threads: https://www.threads.net/glennkirschner2Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/glennkirschner2Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/glennkirschner2Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glennkirsch...See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
