I agree. Even in the very first response to TFG's initial filing she was telling them what to do and making suggestions that they might go further, i.e. don't you want to stop the DOJ cold in their tracks? It's scary that she's a judge, but certainly is giving us every indication of why Trump judge shopped way up in her neck of the woods.p0rtia wrote: ↑Sat Sep 03, 2022 7:58 pm Further thought after reading the transcript:
Canon basically ignored everything both sides said. The closest she got to digging into the DOJ's arguments was say "But what harm could it do?" (re the Special Master) and "I think you're potentially overreading Nixon" (re former presidents claiming executive privilege).
Whereas she never challenged blustering and contentless bloviating of the Palintiffs; rather she put words in their mouths and made their arguments for them. She's the one pushing for TFG having legitimate claims of exec priv.
And thanks for the rundown, that is a lot of pages to read! for sure!
