Trump could soon be feeling - for the very first time in his life - "the painful obligations of citizenship".

They had to reject Cannon on this. Making that precedent would make it impossible to prosecute anyone with a half decent lawyer. Prosecutors would be tangled up in court the second a person knew they were a target of an investigation, well before any indictment came down.

A big question now is whether Cannon will be chastened, or will keep interviewing for a spot on SCOTUS.

Is it time of trump to flee the country?

Not allowed in this type of case anyway. His only option is to go to SCOTUS

That decisions is everything DOJ could have hoped for. Trump has to be livid.

This seems like quite a slap to her and TFG. Her ruling was completely idiotic and partisan. Is there no remedy?

Nope. None whatsoever.

Please check the voting record of your Senator on Judge Cannon - 12 Democrats voted for her and 23 Senators did not even vote. This is no way to seat judges with lifetime appointments.

DC residents had no vote.

Trump can’t be happy about a unanimous opinion with teo of the three judges being his appointees. They properly deferred to vital national security concerns laid out by the FBI over the whims of the boy-king who kept top secret documents in his desk drawer.

Not how it works. This was a very thorough thrashing of her entire opinion, despite being cabined to the narrow issue of the classified documents. Pretty solid swipe at Trump’s tactic of refusing to take a position in declassification. But in a polite, Southernly “well bless your heart” manner. I can’t believe Trump will ask for SCOTUS review after this beat down, but he wants delay. This makes Dearie’s life easier although he made it pretty clear what he thought about the declassification two-step nonsense. So his job at this point is to oversee privilege disputes, if any, with respect to an unknown number of documents comprising 520 pages, and the return of any personal items. That’s a couple of day’s work.

11th Circuit grants the stay! DOJ better get him indicted in DC tomorrow before Clarence can step in.

Unanimous three-judge panel. Two Trump appointees, one Obama.

He has criminal exposure because he probably handled those documents without the proper clearance. His public statements seem to suggest that at least.

Yes and therefore he has a significant incentive to cooperate with the DOJ.
