Donald J Trump: Rip Van Winkle edition

Spacs are an effing joke. No clue how to they are allowed. Complete workaround to filing an S1/IPO with mega room for shenanigans.

Smith bringing the strong precedents

I read the first five pages of this. The submission was not messing around with criticizing Cannon. It said she is making a fundamental legal error with the jury instruction sheā€™s contemplating and needs to issue a ruling so it can be appealed asap. I found it informative for how to strongly criticize a judge while still staying on the appropriate side of a submission to the court.

Strong precedents. Much legal. Bigly denied.

Why and/or when doesnā€™t he seek to get her removed already? I hate this feeling that prosecutors in all these cases have both arms tied behind their backs while Trump is just swinging wildly with both guns a blazing

Probably because it is highly unlikely she would be removed from the case.

Asking to have a judge removed is extremely risky. If you donā€™t pull it off you have a judge who hates your guts for the remainder of the proceeding.

Yeah, he has plenty of outs, including that. I didnā€™t list them all. I think we all know them more or less.

Even if the judge hates someone why would that compromise their ability to do their job correctly?

Obligatory

Well, in this case the judge is openly rigging proceedings for the defendant. I guess there is an argument for letting her hang herself even more, since this case is literally never going to trial until after the election and only matters if he loses.

In this case there may be less to lose. I guess Iā€™m just saying in general to ask a judge to recuse themselves or to request removal you better be sure that it will actually happen because itā€™s going to permanently destroy that working relationship. If itā€™s a judge you have to go in front of semi-regularly you may not just be worried about this one case.

For example my home federal district has only two bankruptcy judges. Under no circumstances would i ever request removal of one of them. It would be career suicide.

Thatā€™s a fundamental flaw in the system then right?

Pretty much. Iā€™m not really sure how you fix it though. Itā€™s impossible to cut the human element out of some of these interactions.

Just as a political move how do you as a Republican candidate not fly out in person to Ruby Garciaā€™s house and put her on Fox News? Thatā€™s political gold for the GOP.

Sorry if already posted. This guy lost his law license fighting for the great president trump.

ā€œI think they want the white guyā€ is a fantastic campaign slogan for him. Even if heā€™s running against another white guy; doesnā€™t matter
