The 11th Circuit Court of Appeals agreed on Wednesday to a request from the DOJ to speed up the government’s bid to block a Trump-friendly judge’s intervention in the Mar-a-Lago investigation.
One might conclude that Donnie is a loser.
Stands to reason. After all, he’s the Pied Piper of losers.
Overheard at the Trusty dinner table:
Mrs. Trusty: so did you actually score a victory for Trump on your own today, or did Cannon help you out again?
Trusty: hush, the name of the game is delay and the 11th Cir. gave us a week. So there’s that.
DOJ is totally sandbagging the case by going along with anything coming out of Cannon’s court. Just say we don’t recognize her jurisdiction, sue us if you don’t like it. And stop pussyfooting around and indict orangehead already Jesus! And yeah blah blah blah rule of law airtight case cross eyes dot tees whatever. Garland apologists gonna apologize for Ole Milquetoast Merrick that’s what they do. DOJ is coming to a knife fight armed with a pillow.
Does this mean it’ll only be seven weeks instead of seven years?
I look forward to when pictures of Donnie prez’nenting, like the one leading off this article, are replaced by photos of tfg incarcerating.
One of the mind boggling, but underemphasized, aspects of this whole affair is that tfg was collecting documents in boxes throughout a large part of his presidency. By the simplest extension of that, transporting them to his private properties for whatever use he intended to put them, was apparently not a late thought, but something like what he intended all along.
As I understand it, the DOJ has not been stopped from proceeding with a criminal investigation regarding the classified documents. The “delay” is only with respect to the other documents the Special Master is reviewing. They could indict on that tomorrow, but my guess is soon after the midterms. It will take time anyway to determine which documents can be declassified to present to a jury and in discovery to Trump’s defense.
Patience. This will take some time but he’s going to be nailed with indictments. Probably before the Holidays.
DOJ is totally sanbagging the case by not having the CIA arrest Cannon for treason and misprision of felony and public lewdness. Damn you, Merrick Garland!
11th Circuit Gives DOJ Most Of What It Asked For In Trump Appeal
Misleading headline. 11th circuit gave DOJ most of what it asked in the scheduling of the appeal. Nothing has been decided beyond the filings scnedule.
The Glacier of Justice moves by nanometers (a nanometer is a billionth of a meter). On occasion big chunks fall off but that is a very rare occurrence.
The supreme court or Ginni’s spouse acting alone could still reinstate Loosey Cannon’s orders re the classified docs.
I thought they had contracted with Blackwater for the arrest. Deep, Deep State stuff.
Not really. The FRAP’s give the appellee 30 days to file the response brief. CA11 is giving Trump 27 days. So it’s not especially expedited, although the setting of the deadline makes it harder for Trump to obtain a further extension, which would be freely granted in most appeals.
The judge’s order prohibited extensions.
I heard it was the Deadly Viper Assassination squad that won the contract before Merrick the Mild vetoed the whole plan to kidnap Judge Cannon to Guantanamo Bay. I’m so performatively mad about it!
I am told we may find out on Friday
If Killary was President, Cannon would have already been found in a park with a “self-inflicted” gunshot wound or ten.
Looks like the order says no extensions but will there be other opportunities to ask for an extension?

You can always ask for an extension, even if they say no extensions allowed. You’re just not likely to get it without very, very good cause. Like, if a meteor crashes into the conference room where Team Trump are working on their brief, Trump would definitely receive an extension.
