Yep. Dudes lawyer is probably telling him to go with the flow, knowing this is a perfect setup for mistral.
Eh, by the time this goes to trial Trump could be in office. Then, as day one dictator, Trump declarse anyone who helped Ukraine at all are wartime traitors, use the guy's weird recruiting thing as evidence, and just summarily execute the guy.
Edit: she's also on the short list to be AG. She may not even be a judge when this goes to trial.
An appeal, sure.
But I doubt they’re going to get a mistrial on it. Dude is guilty as hell. Probably going to lead to reduced sentencing, though. (All though that’s still gonna be at “you’re fucked” levels,)
Edit: even if there is a mistrial, they’ll certainly be allowed to retry.
Doubtful. For the same reason that Trump criticizing / threatening judges isn't grounds for recusal or mistrial.
Wait, he's being charged with attempted assassination? Did he actually aim a gun at trump? Or was he just exercising his 2nd amendment rights?
It's more of a concept of an attempt at an assassination
Cannon: Bias? That's absurd. That's an absurd reason to get in the way of my Supreme Court appointment.
Why is it always that same photo?
It's the most punchable
Is this better?
Probably her official portrait? This is a judge, I don't think you can just grab a random picture off her Facebook or whatever.
That dude is getting the entire courthouse thrown at him to prove her allegiance to Fussolini is completely unwavering, again.

Glad to see this one set loose out into the wild again 😜
It's honestly perfect, it's suplanted my previous name of choice, "Orange Julius"
And then he'll get a favorable appeal.
Yep, she'll do some unnecessarily bullshit to tip the scales, and accidentally cause an obviously guilty guy to walk after an appeal on procedural grounds.
