The judge on that case really needs to recuse herself, because it’s pretty obvious that she has no idea how to proceed with this type of case and because she’s behaving in a manner that suggests that she’s corrupt.

That’s giving way too much credit. She is announcing very loudly and proudly her corruption.

It’s a constant gobsmack unto me (not-a-lawyer) that a judge who owes their judgeship to someone can preside over a case critical to that someone. There really ought to be a hard rule that a judge must recuse themselves from such a situation. That this isn’t often even discussed serves only as a meta-gobsmack.

The corruption suggests that the last thing she will do is recuse herself - but she needs to be recused by someone, for sure. Given her overt bias, if the result goes for Trump surely there will be a prosecutorial appeal?

She’s not going to recuse herself - she needs to be removed.

Of course. I’m pretty sure the Jack Smith’s team has been keeping a nice, tidy paper trail during all of this as well for later use.

Hey - coverups and corruption always worked before he was in public office.
