Not good. You remember Aileen.U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon has been assigned, at least temporarily, to oversee the case stemming from Donald Trump's indictment, a source confirmed to NPR on Friday.
Cannon, whom Trump appointed to the bench in 2020, is the same judge who ruled in favor of Trump's request to appoint a special master to review the documents seized by the FBI from Mar-a-Lago last summer, a move that temporarily stopped federal prosecutors from continuing their investigation into the documents.
The ruling sparked pushback from the Justice Department, which argued that the appointment would "significantly harm important governmental interests, including national security interests."
Within months, a federal appeals court unanimously overturned the ruling, citing a concern for the precedent that might be set by allowing the subject of a search warrant to block government investigations after the warrant is issued.
