I will be very curious to see how (if!) they spike the Cannon.

Dearie resigning has a grim elegance about it.

DOJ are going after Cannon's ruling that established a documents review by a Special Master and asking for a fast-track through the Appellate Court.

The Justice Department moved to quickly dismantle the independent review of documents seized from Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago estate, contending that the review — ordered by U.S. District Court Judge Aileen Cannon — is impeding its criminal investigation.

In a 15-page filing asking a federal appeals court to speed its consideration of the issue, prosecutors complained the “special master” review prevents DOJ from accessing thousands of non-classified records recovered from the former president’s estate.

The Justice Department is seeking an expedited review of its appeal of Cannon’s order establishing the special master review. Though legal briefing in the appeal was slated to carry through mid-December or longer, DOJ’s proposed expedited schedule would conclude that process by mid-November and have oral arguments set soon thereafter.


DOJ seems to be confident that they will win.

The Justice Department’s motion also seeks to capitalize on a ruling earlier this month from an 11th Circuit panel which unanimously granted the government’s request to exclude about 100 documents with classification markings from the special master review. Prosecutors suggest that decision may have created a precedent that undermines Cannon’s essential rationale for the review.

What do you call a weasel that is too fat, stupid, greasy, disgusting, and orange to be a weasel?...
The only good option open is for DOJ to try to get cannon booted. It would solve the immediate problem, while embarrassing her and trump, and the entire trump appointed judiciary.

if Dearie resigns Cannon will not be judge in this case for much longer. She is not the final authority.
When Garland indicts Trump over this it will be in DC, not Florida and he doesn't want to indict Trump for another couple of months anyway, so let him play games and expose his hand in the meantime. This isn't even a speed bump on the road to justice as far as delays go, the only thing it did was expose and ruin an incompetent and corrupt Trump appointed judge. It gathered even more evidence against Trump with his public admissions and court filings and exposed the whole sordid affair to the public just before the election and his supposed run for the nomination. The picture of the documents was worth 10,000 words in this case.

National Archives says it is still missing some Trump administration records
The National Archives and Records Administration said on Friday that it is still missing some records from the Trump administration.
“While there is no easy way to establish absolute accountability, we do know that we do not have custody of everything we should,” Archivist Debra Steidel Wall said in a letter to the House Oversight and Reform Committee.

The National Archives does not have some messages that members of the Trump administration sent and received in unofficial accounts while conducting official business for the president, Wall said.

While the Archives has been able to recover these types of records from some former Trump officials, Wall said they are still missing messages from others who have not yet handed them over.

Former Trump adviser Peter Navarro has refused to turn over the messages from his unofficial account without a grant of immunity. The Justice Department sued Navarro for the documents in August, noting that he does not deny that he had the unofficial account or that the messages are the property of the U.S. government.

Wall did not provide an update in Friday’s letter about the records held by former President Trump himself, instead referring the committee to the Justice Department’s investigation.

The National Archives, with the help of the Justice Department and FBI, has recovered hundreds of presidential records from Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence over the last year, including dozens of classified documents.

Disputes over the status of the Mar-a-Lago documents has resulted in an ongoing legal battle between the DOJ and Trump. Following Judge Aileen Cannon’s recent decision to extend the timeline of the case, it is now expected to drag into 2023.

If they were so good at governing, why would they want to hide it?

How does it work? Who is the final authority and what triggers their intervention?
When Garland indicts him in DC, but first let him dig a little deeper and take her with him into the hole. This is not even a speed bump on the road to justice since Garland doesn't want to indict him until after the election.
