It’s almost like the gratuities are what drive the decisions by Republican appiontees.
This is more ammunition for the forced recusal motion that will almost surely be coming soon.
I envy your optimism
Any day now would be good.
The only explanation I can think of as to why he hasn’t moved to do it yet is that he must think someone on the 11th circuit also compromised and will protect her.
So she’s going to have to do something so publicly outrageous that it can’t be ignoredSo she’s going to have to do something so publicly outrageous that it can’t be ignored
Like ignoring precedent to dismiss the case and seemingly claim that special counsels are unconstitutional?
Nah we should wait a bit longer. Don’t want to be too rash
You know what’s always coming but never gets here?
Consequences for Trump?
Cannon had filed the Sage Lodge trips with the federal judiciary’s administrative office but had “inadvertently” not taken the second step of posting them on the court’s website. [The clerk] explained that “Judges often do not realize they must input the information twice."
Seems like a bad system. Why not just have it be done automatically, or have the clerk do it. Presumably the judge’s time is going to be more costly than the clerk’s.
It almost seems intentionally bad so these little oopsies can keep happening.

That’s like… our entire fucking government.
Eh… large swaths of government try to be efficient… it just keeps tripping over its own feet and all the red tape lying around.
Seems to me like the majority of this nonsense is more typical of the portion of the government that employs by appointment.
Valid take, and I appreciate it in response to my cynicism.
Holy shit… totally not the response I expected either.
But to my point, I know a handful of career civil servants and they’re pretty passionate about their roles and try to do a good job… unlike fucking lunatics like Canon who are supposed to be apolitical but politics dictate every action they take…
Something something ignorance of the law is no excuse
Just to be clear, this is a matter of workplace policy, so relating to the law, but not of the law. But yes, it would be prudent to know the policies of your workplace, and doubly so if you’re a goddamned judge.
It’s almost like a bad judgment call to not ensure you understand the rules of your job.
One might even say if you don’t care about doing your job correctly that it shows a lack of proper judgment.
But what do I know, I’m just a worthless factory schmuck.
I feel like there’s something peculiar about those slanty words you used, but who am I to judge?
As someone in the industry, every organization has to balance cost to benefits. If it costs $10k to intercomnect two low priority systems vs having each person have to double enter, they’re gonna prioritize higher priority things.
Truth, even though it still doesn’t make sense.
A while back, another team asked us to clean up some noisy logs, because it cost us $3k a year with our new logging provider. As we discussed it on a call, my boss pointed out that with the people we had on, that meeting cost more than $3k.
The legal system here is one big fucking clown show these days. Far too many cowards too scared to do their job and hold powerful people accountable, which leaves a disturbing amount of judges to be opportunistic corrupted assholes that enrich themselves by enabling and protecting fascist resources.
The coup never ended.
So, she’ll be on the Supreme Court short list then?
Not if we elect Harris.
GET HER OUTTA THERE!!!
We have to show up, vote, and bring a friend.
Sweep the executive and congress, and she can be impeached. She’s got job security as long as the GOP controls the executive or a branch of congress.
Why of course she did.
I don’t hold out much hope of this happening, but the system needs to be updated to allow folks to request the judges above Cannon to investigate matters, and they should have the power to met out an actual deterrent.
