JUST IN: One day after #Trump's inauguration, Judge #Cannon blocks the Justice Department from allowing four members of Congress to review Vol. 2 of special counsel Jack Smith's report. https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.flsd.648653/gov.uscourts.flsd.648653.714.0_1.pdf

How typically corrupt of her. Angling for SCOTUS again.
Via Anna Bower:
Judge #Cannon has run out the clock.
As #Trump arrives at his inauguration, Cannon has yet to rule on whether members of Congress can review Vol. 2 of the special counsel’s final report.
Whether anyone ever sees that report will likely come down to FOIA litigation.
#HoboGoering was on ABC's #ThisWeek and says #OrangeHitler's second term "won't seek #retribution against his enemies"... BUT he may PROSECUTE #LizCheney and members of the #Jan6 Committee for their "illegal investigation of the president."
Bannon called for a "Special Investigator"... which, if you recall, was ruled "unconstitutional" by Judge #Cannon in order to dismiss the #ClassifiedDocs case against #TraitorTrump. #GOPHypocrisy
“Judge Aileen #Cannon suggested Friday she was not inclined to allow the Justice Department to share special counsel #JackSmith’s report on the classified documents case with Congress – at least for now.”
#Cannon holds hearing on #Trump #documents report as Democrats urge its release -
“A federal judge on Friday will consider whether to block the Justice Department from sharing with key congressional leaders a report by special counsel Jack Smith on the classified documents investigation involving Trump”

Good.
Via Anna Bower:
In a new filing, DOJ says it delivered a copy of the special counsel’s report on the classified documents case to Judge #Cannon, as directed.
The filing pointedly tells Cannon that her review of the report is “not necessary” to determine whether it should be made available to members of Congress.
Via Anna Bower:
Judge #Cannon tells DOJ to hand over the special counsel’s report on the classified documents case by 2 pm tomorrow. She’ll review the report in chambers ahead of Friday’s hearing on whether it should be released to members of congress. #JackSmith #Trump
Never fails.
Via Scott MacFarlane;
And …. Before a possible 12:01am release of #JackSmith’s final report on 2020 election conspiracy, #Trump’s lawyers ask Judge Aileen #Cannon to further delay release of report
3/ Via Katie Phang:
#Cannon orders a hearing to take place this Friday, 1/17, at 2 pm ET as to Vol. 2.
Any opposition brief to Nauta & De Oliveira’s motion to block the release must be filed by 1/14; any reply brief must be filed by 1/16.
Via Katie Phang:
HITTING THE DOCKET:
DOJ has now complied w/ #Cannon’s order to file a notice that nothing in Vol 1 of the Final Report “directly or indirectly refers, relies, or bears in any respect upon any evidence or argument relevant” to Nauta & De Oliveira’s charges.
The DOJ does state that there are two references to “the Classified Documents” case in Vol. 1, but they don’t refer to or deal with Nauta and De Oliveira.
Siiighh

JUST HITTING THE DOCKET:
Judge #Cannon orders the DOJ to file a supplement by 10 am ET tomorrow, 1/12, indicating whether Vol. 1 “directly or indirectly refers, relies, or bears in any respect upon any evidence or argument relevant to any of the charges” against Nauta and De Oliveira.
Via Katie Phang:
HITTING THE DOCKET:
In #Cannon’s court, the DOJ has responded to the motion filed by Nauta & De Oliveira wherein they asked her to extend her injunction blocking the release of #JackSmith’s Final Report.
Via Katie Phang:
HITTING THE DOCKET:
Nauta and De Oliveira have just now filed a motion before Judge #Cannon, asking her to extend her temporary injunction beyond Monday until she rules on their pending emergency request for injunctive relief.
Good.
Via Katie Phang:
HITTING THE DOCKET:
Last night, Special Counsel, #JackSmith, filed his Notice of Appeal of Judge Aileen #Cannon’s order/temporary injunction (from 1/7/25).
The 11th Circuit Court of Appeals yesterday advised that the DOJ could appeal Cannon’s order. #Trump
Via Joyce Vance:
The 11th Cir. told #Trump's former co-defendants in the classified documents case they had until 5pm to respond to DOJ's request to lift Judge #Cannon's order holding they can't release #JackSmith's report. They filed at 5:06 pm. I've practiced in this court a long time. I wouldn't want to be them.

Having Cannon in place really pays off for the imposter in chief...
