Judge Aileen Cannon must recuse herself from Trump's case
Judge Aileen Cannon is incompetent and on her way to becoming an asset for Putin.
When people show you who they are, believe them.Â
It has been almost a year since Judge Aileen Cannon was selected to preside over the case against our former President, Donald Trump. This case involves allegations of him stealing classified documents that belong to the American people.
In that time I, like many, had hoped that her pledge to uphold the Constitution and the rule of law would be sincere. I was mistaken.Â
Judge Cannon's incompetency is well documented:
Judge Cannon has little trial experience before being appointed by Trump. âA Bloomberg Law database lists 224 criminal cases that have been assigned to her, and a New York Times review of those cases identified four that went to trial.â1
Judge Cannon has created a toxic working environment. "Generally, she treats clerks (and the entire chambers staff) very poorly and tends to get angry to the point of screaming at them and talking to them in condescending ways."Â 2
Judge Cannon was spanked by fellow judges on the 11th Circuit Court and ordered to vacate her order for a Special Master because she "improperly exercised equitable jurisdiction." 3
Isn't it the responsibility of the Judge in this case to resolve all issues before proceeding to trial? A whole year has passed, yet there has been no significant advancement. She waited almost 1 year to declare "there are many complicated legal rules and deadlines surrounding the use of classified evidence in public criminal trials that need to be considered." 4
Former White House legal counsel Ty Cobb stated it is more than incompetence. "This is a combination of bias and incompetence," he argued. "The things she has done here are really inexplicable â and it's tragic," he said, predicting that the case will not go before jurors until 2025, if it happens at all. "I think it was always her objective, frankly, to prevent this from going to trial." 5
Aside from the gross negligence, I argue that Judge Aileen Cannon is well on her way to becoming an asset to Putin.
Unfortunately, for all of us who care about our rights and freedoms, former President Donald Trump has repeatedly shown a desire to be subservient to Putin and Russia's expansion into Europe. Anyone aiding and abetting Trumpâs escape from accountability is complicit in supporting that subservience. The Party of Putin threatens all of us. Our national security, the rule of law, and our rights and freedoms are all under attack.Â
Judge Aileen Cannon has now joined Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas to enable Trump and the Republican Party to transform into the Party of Putin, which prioritizes power and wealth, and a dismantling of our democracy and impartial judicial system, and has no concern for the erosion of Americans' rights and freedoms.
Now is the time for all good people to speak up for our rights, freedoms, and democracy.
