Earlier this week, Trump-appointed federal judge Aileen Cannon dismissed the classified documents case against the former president, citing her doubts about the appointment of special counsel Jack Smith. The backlash has been furious, with many criticizing what is seen as a delay strategy. To piece together how this action could impact Trump's presidential campaign and the integrity of America’s legal system, Hari Sreenivasan spoke with Leah Litman, law school professor at the University of Michigan.

Former CIA Director (resigned) and retired General David Petraeus, was fined $100,000 and placed on 2 years probation for the unauthorized removal and retention of classified material which he shared with his biographer/lover Paula Broadwell. Under a plea agreement he avoided prison time.

Yeah. But if you're a former president who poops in his diapers, you're allowed to store classified documents in your bathroom, lake room and ballroom.

@t.a.k.palfrey3882 Месяц назад

Your opening paragraph which included the words, "The Trump appointed federal judge....", bewilders anyone living in a western-style democracy other than the US. Judges may well be nominally answerable to the Legislature in some other democracies, but are de facto appointed by a non-partisan body made up of senior judges and legal experts. Is the doctrine of Division of Powers not respected in the US?

@buzoff4642 Месяц назад

The presumption was continued habit of a bipartisan nomination by a bipartisan congress. Congressman Mitch McConnell usurped nomination process, by refusing to bring forward a nomination during Obama tenure, until Trump was in office. Imagine you hand your money to the fast food worker upon placing an order. And they pocket the money and shout, "Next." Stunned. The same McConnell next shoehorned in the next nomination, before Trump lost the next election. With the Clarence Thomas nomination debacle in the 1990s, I said at the time, it should take 2/3s of congress to vote in a judge. Regardless of how someone sat on the issue at the time, they said yes, 2/3rd. US has grown immensely, yet the actual representation ratio has not. It's concentrated power to, in effect, a king and court configuration. Our "king" presidency's started tilting dynastic, and our congress too, though more House Of Lords-like.
