Dean, Cannon’s not just delaying things, nor making it dangerous for the witnesses. She’s trying to get the witnesses to outright refuse to testify, to drop out as witnesses, or to color their testimony so they won’t be in the MAGA crosshairs. It’s witness intimidation from the bench.
This whole affair is total bullshit. The espionage case against Trump and his co-conspirators is open and shut. There are only three questions to answer: 1) Did he have the documents, classified and otherwise? 2) Should he have had them? 3) Did he lie to the FBI about them? One, maybe two day trial at most. But here we are with Loose Cannon in charge. Perhaps Jack Smith can indict Trump in New Jersey (if he hasn't already) and burn him there.
I think many of us would prefer her recusal and risk possible further delay instead of her continuing to eff America, as we know she will. The really bright side of her recusal would be her humiliation and hopefully dead-end her judicial aspirations before she does more harm elsewhere, which she will. As always, we don’t get to know the things Jack knows, but continuing to let her go unchallenged sure seems like a Mueller move.
Cannon is despicable. What is to be gained by setting witnesses up for harassment and maybe even worse? Should anyone suffer from her ruling, she should be held liable. We live in dangerous times. MAGAts are unhinged and without any self-control.
Nothing should surprise us anymore. Laws and rules are merely suggestions now.
Cannon is so dirty. She’s not competent to be a judge, federal or otherwise. Next thing you know Hur will be on her staff. I can’t wait anymore for Jack Smith to go to the 11th Circuit already. Republicans cry about the weaponization of government, when it’s they who are doing the weaponization.
I'm up to episode #7 of Sheldon Whitehouse's The Scheme series. I strongly recommend it for anyone who cares about democracy. It is about dark money and Federal court capture. Everyone should know. Spread the word.
I agree with Scott K. below. Right wingers like Cannon are becoming more and more hostile to fairness and impartiality. They are spoiling for fights in every venue. And violence is something they will use whenever they deem it necessary to achieve their ends.

It’s becoming increasingly difficult to keep abreast of the insanity. Thanks for this update on “the loose Cannon” judge.
In what sane law abiding nation did Cannon ever get appointed to this case?
I believe Alina Habba and Judge Cannon are two peas in a pod. They both have a law degree, but neither one knows what they are doing.
Cannon. Is so clever, helping Trump‘s coup of terror, and it’s not obvious at all

She’s been a Trumper since the beginning! Should be removed & disbarred! 😡
This is why Witness #5 came forward. He knew his identity would not be hidden.

Trump screws over his party firing 60+ RNC workers & redirects $ to Trump & his attorneys.

Gives new meaning to "Loose Cannon."

This is what they do to truth tellers. It’s disgusting!
