So…. Cannon engaged in more skullduggery.
I knew she would.

Chances seem fairly high that Dearie resigns. She's more or less said that he cannot do the job he was hired to do, and she's going to ignore his recommendations anyway. I also think DOJ either moves to expedite the appeal or moves to stay all of Cannon's order. They now know their panel, know the panel is very likely to rule for them on jurisdiction, and it's clear that Cannon is going to protect Trump from having to make any factual admissions as part of this. They might have thought they could get through this quickly and be done with it, but it's also clear she's going to let Trump keep delaying. Hard to see any benefit for DOJ continuing to play Calvinball
Would they get the same panel or a different one?

Ooooh, I get it.
Trump needs a list of the 100ish classified documents. He needs to see exactly what they are, because he was so careless he doesn’t even know.
He’s saying he needs to see them to review them for privilege. But he really just needs to see the titles on the documents and the dates. Because his team wants to create a phone paper trail saying he declassified them, and also probably create a phoney narrative about why he took them.
But they can’t do that without knowing exactly what the documents are. Trump has no idea, and his legal team can’t do anything because they don’t know either.

"In short, seasoned IT professionals who routinely work
on large-scale document productions with the Government cannot meet the Government’s
proposed schedule, and it was never realistic for the Government to suggest such a narrow
timeframe. Consequently, the Plaintiff respectfully suggests that Your Honor and the
parties will be best served by having the retained vendor convey a supportable timeframe
for scanning roughly 200,000 pages into a platform, and also provide a breakdown of rollout quantities and proposed deadlines. It would be better to base deadlines on actual data
and not wistful claims by the Government."
He makes it sound like the government will need much much longer to have the task accomplished, but the DOJ is just asking for another day or two to hire a vendor.
I dunno....It seems like if you hire enough people you could get any scanning, indexing job done in two weeks.
