Good morning, David, and some not-so-surprising "good news for tRump" coming from Fort Pierce, FL, where tRump's favorite judge, Aileen Cannon, has just dismissed the entirety of the stolen docs case, buying the tRump argument that SC Smith was "unconstitutionally installed", and therefore any legal action resulting from his appointment is null and void.
One hopes that Jack Smith files an appeal, but this "winning" argument now surely will be filed as a motion in the DC obstructions case, which itself has taken a body blow in the SCOTUS immunity decision.
This thieving insurrectionist and rapist just can't lose for winning, can he?
I believe the DC Circuit has controlling precedent that such appointments are indeed constitutional. It may get to SCROTUS, but right now Chutkan is perfectly justified in turning such a motion down flat.
Don't forget that Clarence Thomas, in his "Immunity" opinion, questioned strongly the constitutionality of Special Prosecutor/Counsel appointments, and that opened the door for the Cannon order to dismiss. Sure, this SC business will reach SCOTUS, but I hesitate
to predict which way the far-right majority will vote.
And of course this morning would also bring the decision by "Judge" Lucy Cannon that Special Prosecutor Jack Smith's appointment as Special counsel is unconstitutional, so of course she must dismiss all charges against Trump in the Mar A Lago documents theft case.
So here we are....the Dems are under scrutiny to "lower the temperature", but tRump and his MAGA crowd can continue with their "Every week is Hate Week" rhetoric, because campaign.
It's ironic that Trump falls victim to the violence he encouraged, but I think we should look at the effective of him being placed above the law. The lack of legal accountability can lead to people thinking outside the law.
at the rally are valid , and investigations are in order. At the same time, we should honor the bravery of the agents who wrapped their bodies around Trump to protect him from a second bullet. That photo of people

Leave it to Cannon to think a concurring opinion is controlling precedent.

Memes are going around already that the female head of the Secret Service is a "DEI" appointment.
Though one does have to wonder how Cannon got appointed.
