I doubt she’s keen to have the 11th Curcuit rule for a second time that she’s abused her discretion. Dearie ran circles around the folloushness she helped Trump try to get away with. It’s an embarrassing lesson she’s not soon to forget. Bringing in a second retired judge to assist also h fold Dearie insulate himself from charges that he failed to act with impartiality and he gets to make Trump eat the costs. Master stroke. |
Nothing has been normal about any of the proceedings before Cannon. Dearie is at least opening the door to trying to tell her to let it go. It’s like he’s dealing politely with a petulant child. |
It’s pretty masterful, excuse the pun. |
At least the special master doesn’t seem to be going well for Trump. I wasn’t pleased that he seemed to find still another loophole. |
Yes, it's a relief to know that some judges are not crazy. |
Pretty sure Trump is still yelling at his attorneys for selecting Dearie. |
Dearie seems to have been a huge miscalculation for the Trump team. |
It took quite the brain trust to come to the conclusion that a former FISC judge from Brooklyn was going to allow Trump to play fast and loose with national security information. Banking in his reputation as slow and deliberative didn’t seem to play out either. |
Seems they were hoping Dearie would be skeptical of DOJ’s credibility after the whole Carter Page thing. They seem to have truly drunk their own koolaid on that one and don’t realize most people, including Dearie, don’t see it as the big deal they do. |
What's Trump's reaction been to all the recent news? |
ElfBl Scroll is obviously some kind of pun but I'm not getting it. |
The Elf Bureau of Investigation. The Elf.B.I. |
ElfBI = FBI Scrolls = documents (particularly classified documents) |
