In a shocking miscarriage of justice, Trump-appointed Judge Aileen Cannon has dismissed the criminal case against Trump for stealing classified documents from the White House.
Cannon has decided to take the law into her own hands and ruled that the appointment of Special Counsel Jack Smith was "unconstitutional" (it's not). "In the end, it seems the Executive's growing comfort in appointing 'regulatory' special counsels in the more recent era has followed an ad hoc pattern with little judicial scrutiny," Cannon wrote.
Kick the Trump-appointed Judge off the bench!
This is beyond unacceptable behavior that damages our democracy. Enforcing the law and holding the powerful accountable is one of the most important functions of an independent judiciary, and it's now clear that Cannon is a partisan extremist abusing her power to protect those who share her radical political beliefs.
"Can we now talk about how Aileen Cannon is a clear partisan whose every single decision has been made with the intent of helping Trump? Is that allowed? Do we have to keep pretending that she keeps making shocking decisions that just happen to benefit him massively?" asks Will Stancil on Twitter. We cannot keep pretending that Cannon is capable of being objective, and she cannot be allowed to continue to rule on ANY cases — let alone a case of this importance.
Remove Judge Aileen Cannon from the bench!
