    From the article:

    “There is a difference between a resource-wasting and delay-producing ‘mini-trial,’ on the one hand, and an evidentiary hearing geared to adjudicating the contested factual and legal issues on a given pre-trial motion to suppress,” Cannon wrote.

    Yeah, you fucking cunt. You’re doing the former while trying to call it the latter and using Trumpian doublespeak and circular logic to justify it.

    Trump’s lawyers say they believe the wording used in the search warrant to authorize agents to seize “national defense information” and “Presidential Records” wasn’t specific enough, and Cannon agreed that there were “ambiguities.”

    “The Court determines that some of the terms in that document do not carry ‘generally understood meaning[s]’ such that a law enforcement agent, without further clarification, would have known to identify such material as ‘seizable’ property,” the judge wrote on Thursday.

    I don’t even know where to begin here. Is she literally entertaining the idea that FBI agents are too stupid to know what national defense information and Presidential records are? What the fuck is that?

    I can’t even…seriously…I just can’t. This is a level of stupid that I did not think was achievable by sentient human beings that are allowed to go outside without adult supervision.

    Please, PLEASE tell me that this is finally an appealable issue. It HAS to be, right? Right? The 11th circuit or whatever appeals court oversees her will be able to bitchslap her again and hopefully remove her from the case, right? Or is all hope truly lost and we’re destined to spend the next several months trying to figure out if the FBI knows what national defense information is until she finds the next excuse to delay the case for another eleventy billion years?

      It’s all the stuff with SECRET stamped on it. Not that hard. I bet even Cannon could figure it out.

        Looks like we need another hearing scheduled in 2026 to figure that out before we proceed.
