Summary
Judge Aileen Cannon's favoritism and bias in favor of Donald Trump is well-established. And the law provides that even the appearance of bias and favoritism (no actual bias/favoritism is necessary) warrants the removal of a judge from presiding over a case. The defendant charged with plotting a Trump assassination, Ryan Routh, filed a motion to have Cannon recuse herself from his case given that Trump is the victim. In a typically unpersuasive ruling, Cannon refused to leave the case, making it clear that Cannon just can't quit Trump or Trump-related cases.

| 0:00.0 | It's time for Justice Matters with former federal prosecutor and MSNBC analyst Glenn Kirchner. |
| 0:15.7 | After a motion for recusal, Judge Aline Cannon has now refused to step down from a Trump-related case. |
| 0:22.4 | Here's Glenn with an update. |
| 0:24.8 | So, friends, Judge Alien Cannon, just can't quit Donald Trump. |
| 0:30.5 | There's a defendant by the name of Ryan Ralph. |
| 0:33.6 | He is the guy who reportedly was outside the fence that surrounds Donald Trump's golf course at Mar-a-Lago. |
| 0:42.3 | Trump was playing golf. |
| 0:44.3 | Routh reportedly had an assault rifle and was planning an assassination attempt on Trump. |
| 0:50.3 | He was arrested, indicted, and Judge Aline Cannon was assigned to preside over Ryan |
| 0:57.2 | Routh's case. |
| 0:59.6 | Not surprisingly, Ryan Routh's lawyer filed a motion to have Judge Cannon removed, recused |
| 1:05.5 | from the case because of her unusual relationship with the victim in the case, Donald Trump. |
| 1:13.6 | I mean, at a minimum, there is a real problem with the appearance of bias and favoritism |
| 1:23.6 | and partiality toward Donald Trump. |
| 1:26.6 | There may be actual bias and partiality and favoritism, but at a minimum, there is the |
| 1:33.8 | appearance of extreme favoritism that Judge Cannon has shown Donald Trump. |
| 1:41.0 | And that is the basis to remove a judge. When a judge's impartiality might |
| 1:45.5 | reasonably be questioned, they shall be disqualified from the case. That's the federal law. |

| 2:03.9 | cushy lifetime appointments to the federal bench. That's for openers. Then Judge Cannon went on to |
