Judge Cannon GETS SCHOOLED by her FED UP PEERS in ORDER

Michael popok legal AF see that smile on my face that means I've got what I've always wanted judge chuin versus judge Cannon finally judge chuin is going to school judge Canon about what she should and shouldn't do in procedures related to Donald Trump and criminal cases particularly we got a new order from Judge Cannon which has oh just so politely done a shot across the bow telling judge Canon hey you know what you shouldn't do you shouldn't let randos into your proceeding involving Donald Trump and Grant them permission to file briefs as strangers to the case because she just had a request by Raj K Patel put a pin in him for a minute I got to talk about this guy who files everything prosay on his own without a lawyer and is constantly trying to stick his nose into things related to Donald Trump but when he met his he met his match with judge chuin who in a in a paperless order just to stay consistent with how judge Canon at maral Lago in the Florida case runs her courtroom judge C uh judge chuin up in the DC election interference case very politely declined to let Mr Patel file a brief in fact he she wouldn't even let that brief go on the docket now I'll tell you I am sure she and her clerks read Mr Patel's um interesting uh a brief legal brief and legal is doing a heavy lift in that sentence and declined to let him into the case here is what we have in particular uh this is the order that we just got uh from uh the judge let me just read it for you and you'll see I think very quickly why it has become uh chuckin teaching Canon how to run her courtroom this is the order that we now have on the docket it's um leave to file denied see judge Cannon allowed at least five different strangers to the case three which were in favor of Donald Trump to file briefing related to whether Jack Smith the special counsel is a um a proper valid constitutional officer and employee of the Department of Justice or whether the indictment should be dismissed because in judge Canon's view there's no law that establishes a special councel uh I can't find it anywhere well I don't know look in the Constitution that's a good place to start but not to judge Canon and she invited a bunch of Mischief Makers to come in there including Federalist Society professors of law to file briefs to to put her thumb on the scale and rule in favor of Donald Trump judge chuin this is a whole different PA of wax this is a a person who was a 17-year litigator a 15-year trial lawyer and and she's not letting that happen in her courtroom here's the paperless order motion for leave to appear proos that means without lawyer he's not a lawyer Raj K Patel as the Donald J Trump even if construed as a motion for leave to file an amicus brief because what it looks like he was really doing he he was trying to intervene in the case like hey I'm interested the last time he tried to do this I'm going to read it to you in a minute the last time he tried to do this he tried to argue that one day he may run for president if he runs for president he's got an interest in how executive privilege is being exercised by Donald Trump in other cases let's just put the tinfoil hat wearing part of Raj K Patel aside for a minute and just focus everybody focus on Judge chuin versus judge Canon here we go even if construed as a motion for leave to file an amicus or friend of the court brief the court is not persuaded that filing this submission is warranted although courts have in rare circumstances exercised their discretion to permit thirdparty submissions in criminal cases uh hello judge Canon rare circumstances neither the federal rules of criminal procedure the local rules contemplate that practice at this time the court does not find it necessary to depart from the ordinary procedural course by permitting this filing and I'm not making the document available either now let's talk about it's h outside and your nighttime bedroom temperature has a huge impact on

summarily denied eight other attempts to try to intervene in the case or file Amicus in the case uh right away just like I don't need any help here I in other words the judge is saying I've got a big enough boat I know what I'm doing okay I've got to take the immunity decision by the Supreme Court my bosses on July 1st I've got to use it like a cheese grater and I got to take the indictment for Jack Smith I got to shove it through it and see what comes out the other side is it going to be a Swiss cheese indictment that's going to survive is it going to be the operative facts and allegations and crimes are going to survive my immunity scrutiny that's been required of Me by the Supreme Court I think the answer to that is yes and I don't need anybody else coming in here I also got to figure out whether two of the four counts survive another companion Case by the Supreme Court called us versus fiser whether obstruction of an official proceeding fits the fake elector allegations it and news flash it probably does I don't need Raj K Patel or any other strangers drive by participants in this case now get this Raj uh K Patel has seems to make a living out of filing filing suits in which he wants to be heard so for instance he tried to intervene in the maralo case this is brings it full circle you know uh chuckin V Canon right here's what he tried to to do back a year ago almost within two weeks to the day actually two years ago August 2022 right after the uh search warrant was executed uh Raj catel fi Raj Patel files a challenged the doj's search warrant um he uh so Patel asked to intervene there was a group of like other Republicans that wanted to file amicus briefs oh no not Patel he wanted to become a party to the case he asked to intervene saying that he was interested in becoming president one day I am not making this up he therefore had an interest in defending the right to assert executive privilege so that if would if he was ever elected that privilege would be the way he wants it he also asserted his right to freedom of religion was at stake for reasons he just mentioned but did not fully uh explain um even judge Cannon didn't think that intervention was appropriate uh and so uh he didn't uh he wasn't granted there but that's not the first time he's been on one side or the other of a um a case involving Donald Trump in fact he also filed get this he also filed a case claiming that there were contracts that he had with uh Donald Trump particularly that needed to be enforced and he there was an action before the United States civilian Board of cont contracts and appeals from June of 2022 the last thing I talked about was August of 2022 in which he claimed and listen to this f um he claims that um that he that there was a a stress weapon that was used by Donald Trump which allowed the United States to observe him and that an exchange the United States would not make more would not make sure nothing irreversible happens to them in other words he says there was a bargain where he would pay money and they wouldn't use some sort of stress weapon on him you see where this is going so so there's that uh same looks like to be apparently the same guy who's trying to get involved and can and and Canon let people in although even two years ago Patel was too much for her and now chuckin like no I I don't need this I don't need amicus briefs or other things to make my decisions that's why they gave me the black robe that's why I got it that's my job that's my job right amic's Friends of the Court briefs are helpful if the judge is sort of struggling with analysis of the law and would like to hear from from people that have legitimate interests and um are Scholars or uh or have legitimate positions that they've taken I get that but here and in Mara Lago come on we're going to continue to follow how judge chuin gets ready for her uh end of August beginning of September hearings to get this case against Donald Trump back on track with the special counsel in place one side note you'll note that at no time does the judge question whether Jack Smith is a legitimate prosecutor or not or special counsel and we've yet to see the filing yet where the special counsil is being attacked as being invalid in DC by the Trump side but we will it'll come and you know where you can find it Midas Touch Network and
