3:47Now PlayingJudge Aileen Cannon appears to no longer be hiding the fact that she is in the tank for Donald Trump, and one of her latest decisions this week is just further proof of that. Cannon decided to give Trump a full two weeks to justify why he should be allowed to continue falsely claiming that President Biden tried to have him killed by the FBI at Mar-a-Lago, while any other judge in the country would have immediately ruled that he can't make stuff up. This goes beyond insanity and incompetence for Cannon, as Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains.

Recently, judge Eileen Cannon decided to deny the request from Special Prosecutor Jack Smith to put a gag order on Donald Trump to stop him from saying that President Biden tried to kill him during the FBI search of Mar-a-Lago, which of course has based on a complete bastardization of the search warrant that said, if the need arises, the FBI is authorized to use lethal force, uh, which of course is standard in every FBI search warrant. So it was not specific to Trump, it's in every warrant. It's a standard line. And Trump has been out there, of course, saying that Biden tried to kill me. He wanted me dead. I almost died. It was so scary you weren't even there. And so Jack Smith went to Judge Cannon and said, Hey, this is insane. He's gonna get somebody killed, put a gag order on him. And Cannon said, no, instead, I'm gonna have a hearing about it. Of course, because that's all Canon likes to do, have meetings, right? She's that coworker that doesn't like to actually do work, so she just calls a bunch of meetings so she doesn't have to do anything and can sit there and pretend like she's doing something. We all have those coworkers, right. But I digress. Canon then after saying she'll have a hearing about it, has now given Donald Trump two full weeks, 14 days, to submit to her a reason why he should be allowed to continue to lie about the search warrant.
Let me say that one more time just so it sinks in. Judge Eileen Cannon, who Trump appointed to the bench shortly before he left office at the end of 2020, told Donald Trump, I'm gonna give you two weeks to tell me why I should just let you keep lying. That's insane. This goes beyond incompetence. This goes beyond bias. This woman is unfit to serve on the bench who completely unfit if the Democrats retain the Senate and take back the House of Representatives this week? The first order of business I wanna see from them when they take office in January is impeaching Judge Eileen Cannon. She does not deserve to be on this bench. She is an idiot. She is very dumb. She doesn't know what she's doing. And honestly, if you doubt the fact that she is stupid, let me read you this. Canon herself seems to be having trouble understanding basic legal proceedings and principles leading to long explanations that she still doesn't appear to grasp. Her conduct has disillusioned some of her clerks, two of whom decided to quit as a result of her conduct on the classified documents case, as well as an allegedly hostile work environment.
So you're gonna
Look at this and tell me that none of this is intentional, that it's all incidental, coincidental. No, she is doing this on purpose due to a horrid combination of stupidity and bias that proves that she is unfit to serve. Giving a man two weeks to explain why he should be allowed to lie is something no other judge in this country would do, even other judges appointed by Donald Trump. They would simply say, oh, okay. Well you're obviously lying. I don't want to hear an explanation. Stop lying. But Canon is giving him a chance to explain why she should allow him to lie. And that alone tells you everything you need to know about how unfit she is to serve on this federal bench.
