Summary

U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon temporarily blocked the release of special counsel Jack Smith’s report on Donald Trump’s criminal cases.

The injunction will last until three days after the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals rules on a related case involving Trump co-defendants Walt Nauta and Carlos De Oliveira.

Nauta and De Oliveira argue that releasing the report could jeopardize their right to a fair trial.

Cannon, who previously ruled Smith’s appointment unconstitutional, issued the order to “preserve the status quo” pending appellate decisions.

    Aileen Cannon is a horrible person and should be tried for judicial interference if ever America returns to sanity.

        This was my first reaction: someone wants the next slot that opens up

        Good luck America, enjoy the most egregious cronyism the world has ever seen. It’d be entertaining from an outside perspective if it wasn’t likely to fuck the whole world up.

      if ever America returns to sanity.

      That’s a big ask, hasn’t been a hint of sanity since Carter.

      We’ve all been soon to be millionaires ever since!
