The 58-year-old convicted felon accused of attempting to assassinate Donald Trump as he golfed in Florida in mid-September filed documents Thursday demanding the recusal of U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon from presiding over the criminal case, citing the Trump-appointed judge’s dismissal of the former president’s Mar-a-Lago classified documents prosecution, Trump’s ensuing lavish praise of her in public, and the “prospect” of her “promotion” to the U.S. Supreme Court should Trump win the 2024 election.
If you try to assassinate someone, get F’d, but I mean she clearly is biased for Trump so he doesn’t NOT have a point.
Yeah. Everyone deserves a fair trial. If what you did was awful, a fair trial will show it. I don’t think Cannon is capable of being fair if there’s any relation to politics.

So her whole ass job then?
How does she consistently end up assigned to Trumps related cases? How small is the judges pool in that area?
This article does a good job of explaining how she was assigned to the documents case last year, and still applies to how cases are assigned in her district in general. There just aren’t a lot of judges in the pool of available options.
There’s only 3 federal judges in that district.
Well if there’s only three then the pool is quite small. But I do think in this case it should be handed to another judge.
Shit…he’s right. Trump will 100% put her in SCOTUS.
