Are you paying attention to Schedulegate?
I just coined the term, but check out "Judge Aileen Cannon’s Games in Florida May Delay Other Trump Trials" (Daily Beast) and "Judge Cannon's rulings put other Trump cases in 'limbo'" (Raw Story) and "Judge Cannon Just Stealth Shivved The Trump Docs Case/Girl, please. We see you" (Law and Chaos).

Activist judges for we but not for thee. It couldn't be more enjoyable than if the judge was also Hawaiian.
Seems like good news to me.
And if you don't agree with mañana, then you're racist against Mexicans, and if you're racist against Mexicans, you're racist against everyone.
That they will just have to kill Trump if they can't jail him before the election, seems to be the thought of the day from Democrats.
It may be beginning to dawn on the loosely get-Trump-at-any-cost posse, that they might be helping him get elected again.
Sounds like the talking points memo went out.
Igna? You here? Did you get a copy?
Federal judges being oblivious to deadlines except for the ones they take an interest in is unfortunately par for the course. But i don't see why other Trump criminal case judges who want to move forward can't do so. Let them adjust when the final pretrial conference in Florida is underway.
TRUMP, TRUMP, TRUMP the 2024 voters are marching on. Now if only the vote count is done honestly this time.
I have no heard about schedulegate, but I have heard about how the cases are set to play out in relation to the election.
I went to the batshit crazy Law and Chaos. It was a fun read.
I found this part the best:
She ordered the government to make its case with respect to each document it wishes to withhold, and even suggested that she’d let the PAC lawyers participate in the CIPA § 4 hearing where the government explained why it shouldn’t have to show nuclear secrets or military war plans to Trump’s henchmen.
This is delightfully amusing, since up above she wrote:
The special counsel proposed that the evidence be shown to their counsel, who have security clearance, and then the attorneys could argue on an individualized basis for access to any particular document germane to their case.
So, when it's the special counsel arguing that you can keep the defendants from seeing anything, because their attorneys could see it, that's "good".
But when the judge says "ok, their attorneys get to be their when you try to claim that a document should be excluded", that's "evil".
It's like TDS just makes you stupid
But the punting is great. Either Trump will have lost the primaries as it turns out that people are saying they'll vote for him, because of the corrupt attacks by Democrat "prosecutors", but they're not actually going go vote for him because 2020s Trump has established that he's a loser, and they don't want a loser, or else Trump will have the GOP nomination wrapped up, and even our criminal justice system won't be willing to run kangaroo court cases on the GOP Presidential nominee
We'll see.
But my expectation is that Trump will either flat out lose IA, or else it will be incredibly close, not a 30+ point blowout. And that Trump just isn't up to actually getting out and campaigning and working for the nomination
she knows the law, jack smith violated a good deal of it,
"Special Council" Robert Hur is not expected to charge anyone in the Biden classified document "scandal". You know, the ones in his garage by his corvette.
But...but...but...that's DIFFERENT! Oh, bullshit. STFU.
Judge Cannon will be the left's newest enemy if she does not go along with the plan. They want 2024 filled with CONTROLLED Trump trials and coordinated leaks to the liberal press. Just like the J6 committee. The brainwashing of half the nation must continue.
They want Trump in court all through 2024, and hopefully lock him up before the general election, or perhaps even the GOP Milwaukee Shit Show Convention.
Isn't lawfare fun? They're just getting revved up. So is Trump.
I hadn't really heard of this. But isn't it the Defendant who has a right to a speedy trial and not the government? I'm assuming the motivation of people who are upset by this is that if there is no trial before the election then that ability of a conviction to prevent Trump from being elected vanishes. Isn't this just evidence those people's political motivations for supporting this prosecution?
Lawfare's a bitch.
These people seem upset that their railroad schedule is being disrupted.
Awww....she's ruining all of our plans.
It used to be judges standing strong for the rule of law was celebrated. That was before the democrats got into power.
I dunno, based on the latest news the Biden had classified materials stashed multiple locations that he took as VP with no authority to declassify, and the government says they won't bring a case against him; perhaps Judge Cannon could consider tossing the case against Trump. Name another Cabinet level or higher federal officer that has been tried for mishandling classified data? Sandy Berger maybe, who did plea guilty for a $10,000 fine and no jail time. Was that offered to Trump?
Oh no! Anyway…
Oh dear.
I like how over the top those articles were. They were Ethel Merman-esque.
From Raw Story: “She is a full fledged member of the Trump defense team," tweeted Norman Ornstein, a senior fellow emeritus at the American Enterprise Institute.
How hyperbolic. I don't recall Norm throwing a hissy fit over the completely novel legal machinations in DC and NYC. But then those people are doing what Norm wanys done to Trump, not what frustrates his hyperactive enemies. For all I, a mere observer, knows Judge Cannon is following normal procedure. By the way what is "normal procedure" for one administration prosecuting its predecessor and present opponent? Please give me some examples Norman. (Is he a member of the prosecution team?)
My gosh! A judge who may not be all in on sticking it to Trump? Time to rally the leftmediaswine.
Love this touch too, regarding the Section 4 hearing: “I think she could do that a week after DOJ files a Section 4 motion," he added. "Instead, she’s doing it 74 days after they file their motion."
Context matters, as progressives always remind us. So what was the time between Trumps other acts, say his business valuations, in relation to the charges in NYC? Were Trump's acts more or fewer than 74 days prior to Leticia filing charges? What about the alleged sexual assault? Was that a charge made within 74 days of Trump's alleged acts? 74 weeks? 74 months? OH, it was closer to 300 months than 74 days, eh? So when exactly are we supposed to be enraged about a 74-day span, Junior? Do you know how much time normal little people spend waiting for courts to hear their cases? Do you think a hearing in 74 days would thrill a LOT of litigants waiting for their day in front of a judge?
I do.
The three articles were almost unreadable in their biases, and were clearly written from the same script. That the first two used identical language, strongly suggests that they were partisan hit pieces. \
The thing here is that the prosecution has been cutting corners from the beginning, when Deputy Special Council and Counterintelligence and Export Branch Chief Jay Bratt first requested documents marked classified throug the National Archives, requiring Trump’s attorneys to dig through hundreds of boxes of documents, to issuing a subpoena for them, refusing requests for extensions of time and for rolling production, using their failure to respond quickly enough to his impossible demands as the justification for his search warrant of MAL, where he denied Trump’s attorneys’ request to oversee the raid (where published photos were staged), etc. Meanwhile, without notice to that FL judicial district, he was running a second grand jury, outside their supervision, and violative of DOJ requirements. That’s why it was shut down, after Judge Cannon ordered Bratt to explain WTF was he doing there. The evidence was in FL. The defendants were in FL. The 2nd grand jury’s oversight was supposed to have been there too - except that Bratt had failed to mention that to Judge Cannon.
Does she distrust the prosecution? She has plenty of reason to. They were trying their hardest to schedule the trial when it would do the maximum damage to Trump’s campaign, even if it meant cutting back on some of the defendants’s rights. Indeed, it very much looked like this trial was supposed to have been crowded by SC Jack Smith’s other case against Trump in DC (cleverly not mentioned in those articles). So, she is pushing back a bit. BFD. Her job is to make her trial fair, and not to please the DOJ, in its highly political trials designed to sway the election.
Trump isn't going to make it to November 2024 alive. They have already shown their intent quite clearly. Whatever it takes, whether a traffic accident, heart attack, stroke, plane crash they can make it happen and they will. Tin foil hat stuff on my part perhaps but these are times we live in now.
The First Amendment guarantees that anyone and everyone, other than Donald Trump, can publicly question the professionalism of any judge handling any matter related Donald Trump.

Let's not forget the entire State of New York had to create a carve out in the statute of limitations for that supposed violation, just so that case could be brought to court. That carve out has expired. Despite Trump losing the case, we still don't know when the supposed act occurred to the nearest year nor provided a month with just confusion on the specific year.
I'm picturing the prosecutors fighting over who is going to get Biden over the top... by being the prosecution that finally sinks the biggest rival in American presidential election history.
That they will just have to kill Trump if they can't jail him before the election, seems to be the thought of the day from Democrats.
For those who dismissed Michael K.'s last year prediction of the same, Congressman Dan Goldman (D- Trust Fund) just called for Trump to be "eliminated".
The Dems and the GOPe will not allow Trump to take office again, by whatever means necessary.
I can't see the Government's case in view of the Clinton case and letting then VP Biden skate. Is it that it's different if the accused are Democrats?

War!
If Trump, MAGA, and the working-class Americans that support him...win beyond the voter fraud socialist margin; it will be the greatest victory "democracy" has seen since the Magna Carta, and the Declaration of Independance.

"Eliminated"...."From the River to the Sea"... Everyone knows what the totalitarian left means with their slight of hand, plausible deniability language.
Except, of course, College Educated White Women.
Never in our history (CORRECT ME IF I'M WRONG!) has a President's administration and its partisan allies brought coordinated criminal charges against the President's likely opponent in the forthcoming election. And then the President and his allies have used those charges as an excuse to impose gag orders on the political opponent.
This is NOT democracy.
The Left-Leaning news purports to be SHOCKED! SHOCKED! at the allegations, but they ignore the abuse of legal process for partisan goals.
I don't support Trump for another election, but if it could be proved that Biden was compos mentis and responsible for what his Administration is doing, I would favor his impeachment. (Ha, ha)
of course Raw story, was founded by that character Brett Kimberlin, anarchist, speedway bomber degenerate,
Dead Orange Man Walking.
This is more and more like Captain Ahab hunting down Moby Duck. I can’t wait for the ending.
Is there a single, reality-based reason not to vote for Trump at this point...I mean if you're not a crooked swamp creature?
By any slight chance could the judge delaying things because the charges and indictments are all political? The present New York case is a perfect example. How do you have fraud with no victim? That crazy old judge is preening for the camera every day.
cry havoc and let loose the dogs of war, of course richard 111 was painted as a villain,
A pet peeve of mind is putting "gate" at the end of each scandal name. It is only done because the media thinks that Watergate was one of the greatest moments in the history of journalism, the reality being less than advertised, but these days massive scandals are ignored and excused so I don't particularly care to celebrate their overblown pride and general incompetence.

Good catch. Is it any surprise that kids steeped in Orange Man Bad eliminationist rhetoric would leap to “From the River to the Sea”?

Sure: he's a loser
1: He got repeatedly beat by the Deep State while he was President. including by the FBI which got the Hunter Biden laptop suppressed
2: His candidates got repeated beat in general elects over the last year plus, while Trump sat on his fat ass and did nothing
What rallies he's thrown in the last year have been weak, and he's too chickenshit to go to debates and compete.
He's as low energy as Jeb!
Gawd, I just love a brilliant woman. And especially one that's got a wicked sense of humor.
An audiobook just made apparent that it's hard to distinguish spoken courthouse from whorehouse when both are in the story.
"Trump isn't going to make it to November 2024 alive. They have already shown their intent quite clearly. Whatever it takes, whether a traffic accident, heart attack, stroke, plane crash they can make it happen and they will."
"But I'm a superstitious man. And if some unlucky accident should befall him...if he should get shot in the head by a police officer, or if he should hang himself in his jail cell, or if he's struck by a bolt of lightning, then I'm going to blame some of the people in this room. And that I do not forgive."
With all of the documents released in the last several years, it's become very clear that our federal government is deeply corrupt and partisan. Trump's line, "they aren't coming after me, they are coming after you, and I'm just in the way" is obviously true. But, I can't do anything about it. It's up to Trump and his allies to fight corruption at that level.

'Reminds me of how Jizzy Jackson's campaign theme when he unsuccessfully ran for POTUS got amended, following revelations of his sexual escapades:
"From the Po House to the Ho House, to the Court House and to the White House".
As a follow-up, I suppose that one was better than another offered by his detractors, stolen from Jeb Bush:
"Jizzy!!"
narciso:
"Cry 'havoc' and let slip the dogs of war" is said by Marc Antony at the Senate just after the assassnation of Julius Caesar and the departure of his assassins in Shakespeare's "The Life and Death of Julius Ceasar".
Indeed, Richard, Duke of Gloucester and later King Richard III, was painted by Shakespeare as a villan--and a great one ("... since I cannot prove a lover to entertain these fair well-spoken days, I am determined to prove a villain and hate the idle pleasures of these day") who ultimately meets his just end for want of a horse--in "The Life and Death of Richrd the Third".
For a different take on whether Richard was a villian, see Josephine Tey's novel "The Daughter of Time"
District Judgehood is a pretty tough deal. Lots of hard work when you take it seriously. It does grant a great deal of scope for whimsy disguised as discretion. Still, Trump made a reasonable case for a delay.
Now, the overhanging pros/pers -ecutions are an electoral asset as Trump's ridiculous drama overshadows the question of who will do the best job.
"Are you paying attention to Schedulegate?"
With everything going on, it's hard to stay up-to-date on the latest controversy. To be honest, it's easier to just figure that whatever Current Thing the left is wailing about is good for the country in general.
1: He got repeatedly beat by the Deep State while he was President. including by the FBI which got the Hunter Biden laptop suppressed
He was also getting the crap beat out of him by the Dems and undercut by the GOPe. I think citizen Trump had no idea that the beehive he was elected to manage was as corrupt and self protecting as it is. One good thing about it is that a lot of eyes were opened. To say he should have cleaned out the left's stranglehold on the deep state from the position he was in is a bit like saying he didn't solve the NK problem in 2 years.
2: His candidates got repeated beat in general elects over the last year plus, while Trump sat on his fat ass and did nothing
"Looking just at contests deemed competitive by the NBC News political unit, based on political dynamics of those races and ad spending, 46 of Trump's candidates won, and 33 lost. Of the 33 who lost, 32 of them echoed Trump's claims that the 2020 election was stolen"
It doesn't bode a landslide, but 2024 is a better electoral map than the midterms. I'd agree that relying on celebrity name recognition for Oz and especially Walker was boneheaded. Hopefully he has learned. We'll see.
he's too chickenshit to go to debates and compete
Seems to have worked well in the polls so far. Along with, or in spite of, the left's over reach of course. It's probably a good political move since one of the main complaints about him is his constant tauntig.
In other news: Biden still not charged.

That would be an extremely dangerous move. Then there will be a shooting civil war.
Which is of course just what you want.

No, Jim. I've seen enough violent shit up close and personal in this world. I know enough not push someone past their moral limit. But that's the direction you're pushing this. Everything that is happening now is the direct result of you selecting Biden.
It’s hard to prosecute a political prosecution when everyone involved is also political.

So what?
The reality is that Trump was a loser, and will continue to be a loser. Because he completely lacks the tools to fight back.
This makes me sad. But when reality and my feelings are in conflict, I go with reality.
The reason why I like DeSantis is because he DOES have the tools to fight back, and he uses them to fight back.
When choosing between a loser with lots of excuses, and a winner, I go with the winner

Where was Trump during the KY Gov race? He won KY by 25 pts in 2020. So why didn't he get off his ass and get out their and campaign for the guy he endorsed?
Trump's selling method in 2016 was his massive rallies. Where are they now? The answer is he's too low energy to do tham any more

I dont' listen to the polls, be I up or down.
What your'e saying there at teh end is that Trump's so pathetic that, like Biden, he needs to hide from teh public in order to win.
That's a really bad place to be
@Greg
I'm not going to argue your points here although we could go back and forth forever. There is one thing though..

I like DeSantis for the same reasons except one. DeSantis is not going to have the same turnout as Trump. Not only is he NOT going to get 100% of the Trumper vote he is not going to get the bump in the minority vote that Trump seems to be getting. I really doubt that he can make the 75 million mark that Trump did. I'd be happy with either of them as president, I just think Trump stands a better chance in a FAIR (big assumption!) election in 2024. That's where our difference lies.
@pacwest:
You might want to take a look at DeSantis's totals in 2022.
It wasn't all white males who gave him his crushing victory
