Lawrence O'Donnell: DOJ Tells Trump-Picked Judge She's Risking National Security - The Last Word MSNBC

[Rhiannon12866]

MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell analyzes a new filing from Justice Department lawyers telling Judge Aileen Cannon that her order for the appointment of a special master to review the government documents seized from Donald Trump’s Florida home is creating a national security risk and could do “irreparable harm” to their investigation. - Aired on 09/08/2022.

2. An appeal to the 11th Circuit? Where six Trump appointees are active?

So that's what Aileen Cannon is supposed to dread?

[Justice matters.]

5. Do you really think the 11th Circuit doesn't understand the fact

that the IC's assessment of the possibly irreparable damages to the national security of the United States of America cannot be done in full if the FBI investigation is impeded to proceed? IOW, they can't do the job separately! One doesn't do it without the tools the other has!

Heck, it's also their own lives and those of their families at risk here (they don't care about others than them I know) every minute this sordid crime remains unpunished!

Now come on...

These people hate our country. I'll bet that judge just loves "Q" websites. The whole situation is cray-cray.

7. It's certainly confusing since this is truly unprecedented. But so is anyone remotely like TFG!

It's enormously shocking that a former president would have so many pending charges against him - but it's even more shocking that someone as corrupt and lawless would ascend to the presidency at all! Not to mention that he's still on the loose, able to attack the DOJ and the current government - and to incite violence from extremist groups and his deluded "supporters!" Here we thought we were out of the woods when he was soundly defeated in 2020, but he's yet another plague on this country that won't go away!

8. Still holding out hope Cannon will do the right thing, see the light, be ashamed or embarrassed?

I wouldn't hold my breath. I absolutely expect her to do the wrong thing, side against legal precedent, and side against our national security interests. These people live in their own "alternative reality," remember? In their view risking millions or billions of human lives on their careless reckless decisions DOES NOT matter, so long as they get their way. And why would she do otherwise? She fears not being impeached. That will never happen, so there's no repercussions of her actions, for her anyway.

10. She should be marked classified and then locked away.

11. Aileen "Where's my Mercedes?" Cannon couldn't care less

[peppertree]

12. If any harm DOES come to National Security, Aileen should be arrested

[peppertree]

13. She should be arrested - and deported back to Colombia

I'd like to see her try that there.

[peppertree]

14. Can you IMAGINE if a Democratic-appointed judge had endangered Natl' Security like this?

They'd lock him/her up - and throw away the room.

[Rhiannon12866]

16. She obviously should not have been appointed to begin with, like all TFG's choices

He only appointed those who supported or benefited him.

20. The more third-worldy, the better

In parts of Latin America, the going joke about judges is that sin propina, no camina.

'They won't walk (with you) without a tip'.

Aileen's definitely from that school of Latin jurisprudence - if not the Inquisition.

15. TY.. KICK!

Cannon is a Dumbshit. I just can't!

[Rhiannon12866]

17. Lawrence O'Donnell's opening analyses/explanations all week have been invaluable!

[Cha]

18. Yeah, I read that in your

other post that had the link to this one.


LO'D is a Treasure to Democracy! I remember when he had that car accident and we were all so worried about him!

[Rhiannon12866]

19. Oh, I remember!

And I agree, he has the experience and is able to articulate it, not to mention he gets the best guests!
