    Well, this should be no surprise.

    She’s been bending over backwards for Trump since day one, and she’s spent this entire time dragging her feet on even the most basic of issues. She created delay after delay, and is now using the delay she created as the justification for granting the postponement that Trump has been seeking all along.

    “Mid November.” What a god damned coincidence. The rotting corpse of Hellen Keller could have seen right through that load of bullshit.

      At this point I’m convinced she’s literally in communication with his team or people once removed. This is the most slam dunk case ever. Did he have these documents? Yes. Was he allowed to? No.

      Is there anyway they can throw her out or do something about this cunts corruption? Seriously we going allow her to keep this from proceeding until she is sure he is President and can pardon himself.

          It’s such an open and shut case, he may still be convicted with all the help in the world. If that happens he is in a bad position to effectively argue that she was biased against him.

            That “may” is doing a lot of heavy-lifting. I don’t want revenge" or to punish Trump because I don’t like him (though I don’t). I want justice to be served. The judge is clearly biased toward him, and that could result in a miscarriage of justice. She must be removed.

          And is there any mechanism in place for her removal as a judge, just based on overall being unfit for the role?

            Yes. She’d have to be impeached by the House of Representatives, then convicted in the Senate by a 2/3 majority. Basically will never happen.

              We basically have a system where, as soon as the fascists capture 1/3 of the government, we have no legal defense against them seizing the other 2/3.
