Summary

Judge Cannon “presiding” over the Mar a Lago criminal case against Trump, just got caught with her hands in the cookie jar by failing to disclose her long standing relationship with the Federalist Society and accepting tens of thousands of dollars of all expense paid luxury retreats that attack the democratic and progressive legal agenda. Michael Popok puts a spotlight on the judge and what prosecutors may do next as they look at her adverse rulings against them including the recent one delaying the trial yet again, with new eyes.
