Special councils usurp legislative authority???
All the legislature can do is pass laws! If those laws never get enforced there is no legislative authority!
Cannon has ursurped legislative authority...
The guy can do anything... unreal.
Except hold a glass of water with one hand. Or walk down a gentle slope unassisted.
It's interesting to think it's taken a long time before a President was able to so obviously expose the cracks in the American constitution. It took someone entirely without shame or integrity to do so, but he did it during his first term and his second is going to be even more abusive. How does America fix this system going forwards? With the country so divided and polarised, it feels like another civil war might be the only way to solve that, but a civil war is unthinkable. But then so much else that was unthinkable has already happened in recent years.
This is why someone tried to assassinate Trump the other day.
The Roberts court is a joke and obviously delaying any rulings they can until after the election to protect the wealthy and powerful from the law everyone else is restricted under. Cannon just takes the stupidity one step further.
All hail the oligarchs /s
The appellate court is gonna reverse that immediately.
And if they don’t: I guess it was nice having an illusion of a justice system for a while.
The headline should say "Corrupt Judge dismisses Trump documents case"
US Presidents cam really do anything it seems...
I'm glad I don't live in america but if that idiot gets in there is potential threats to other countries
What convenient timing.
It's actually not. The more worrying proposition was that she waited for a jury to be seated -- attaching jeopardy -- and then dismissing the charges with prejudice.
This certainly pushes it way past the election, but that seemed a certainty anyway.
