This is more ammunition for the forced recusal motion that will almost surely be coming soon.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

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 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.
