Well, he is a Trump judge, after all. He is probably waiting for a transcript that has been translated into Crayon.
This case is a slam dunk. Direct binding D.C. Circuit ruling that says Acosta/CNN wins, plus DOJās brief make some crazy arguments. I donāt see any reason for a delay, and it concerns me that this ā ŠÆāmp appointed judge is looking for some way to try to help out ā ŠÆāmp , pay for his federalist supported position with a few pieces of silver.
Little Timmie Kelly has always been a bit of a servile fraidy cat shit, which is why he transferred from Main Justice crim division to internal ethics.
I can only surmise the Judge is expecting Trump or SHS to extend an olive branch (a pretext) by which Acosta regains access? I suppose that would make the lawsuit moot and prevent Trump from piling up yet another loss.
I donāt understand this article. Did he delay the ruling until Thursday morning (Today?) or from this week to next Thursday? Whatās the story?
B-, rewrite please.
Follow-up story https://talkingpointsmemo.com/news/whca-urges-court-reject-trump-position-cnn-suit says judge will rule Friday morning. In a world topsy turvey, easy to forget what day it is!
Why the delay? Everyone saw the very very valid video of Acosta putting the intern in a choke hold, dragging her across the room and then breaking both her legs. What is there to dispute? And why isnāt the journassaulter in jail??
/yes this is snark and no Iām not making light of actual violence, just the WHs attempt to paint Acosta as someone who assaulted the internš
Well I hear she did break a fingernail which ruined her manicure, so thereās that.
If you need to find His Honor youāll find him up Trumpās fat ass.
Given that CNN is not banned, I think itās a weak case, but Iād love to be wrong.
PS: Once again the WH Press Association shows itself to be impotent and useless.
Clearly, the Heritage Foundation needs a little more time to write Judge Kellyās decision. The opportunity to shred the press freedom provision of the First Amendment is an important one for the right, and they donāt want to waste it.
Meanwhile, Kelly will have plenty of good company on the bench. Mitch McConnell is pushing forward two stunningly, openly racist āTrump nomineesā (read: Charles Koch nominees) to the federal bench, the arch-segregationist and anti-voting rights activist Thomas Farr, and Chuck Grassleyās boy Jonathan Kobes.
Jim Acosta really missed a golden opportunity. He should have body-slammed the intern. Then he would have been Chiselinā Trumpās ākind of guy.ā
