Crap

In a feat of corrupt and incompetent judging that is beyond the wildest imaginings of the late Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia's spleen, Federal Judge Eileen Cannon has sealed the records of the Donald Trump classified document case forever.

You have to admire one thing about Judge Aileen Cannon down by Florida way. There are sled dogs in the Arctic who don't have this kind of loyalty. From Reuters:

I love Charlie Pierce, but you do not have to admire what she did.

………

You have to go back to the Gilded Age, when the railroads and corporations ran the federal judiciary, to find a federal judge who was as round and complete a hack as Cannon has been in this case. She did everything to stall the proceedings until the unfortunate events of 2024 gave her the opening she needed. That July, she dismissed the documents case on the spurious grounds that Jack Smith's appointment was unconstitutional. An appeals court said that Cannon's handling of the case and her earlier appointment of a special master was "improperly exercised equitable jurisdiction." That is a very polite way of saying, "Get your damn thumb off the scale." By then, the process of burying the report was well underway and, officially, anyway, the last shovel of earth was turned on Monday.

It's time for unofficial solutions. Somebody should leak the daylights of this report. The truth about the Poolshed Papers belongs to all of us.

Please, for the love of God, someone leak this.
