    Cannon doesn’t give two shits about that or she wouldn’t be blatantly siding with the defendant who nominated her.

      My “guess” is that Jack Smith has decided it’s now or never to get rid of Judge Cannon. It’s clear she is dragging this out intentionally. Once Judge Cannon responds that she will not “speed things up” , Jack Smith will go to the Appellete Court and ask to have her removed . That she will give a shit about.

          Yes, then she’ll just be a federal judge who is known to be overturned easily and not to be trusted by her colleagues

                Long term most of the damage can be mitigated, but the delays and the possibility of being able to ruin a case with a bad ruling in the middle of the trial that can’t be undone is still doing damage.

                If she can delay until after the election, that has an impact that can’t be overturned.
