Has there been a more incompetent, political judge to ever sit on the bench? I can't imagine how.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!"

Clarance Thomas: “Am I a joke to you?”
Yes, yes you are.
Well, this should be no surprise.
She's been bending over backwards for Trump since day one, and she's spent this entire time dragging her feet on even the most basic of issues. She created delay after delay, and is now using the delay she created as the justification for granting the postponement that Trump has been seeking all along.
"Mid November." What a god damned coincidence. The rotting corpse of Hellen Keller could have seen right through that load of bullshit.
Is there anyway they can throw her out or do something about this cunts corruption? Seriously we going allow her to keep this from proceeding until she is sure he is President and can pardon himself.
That's cause cannon is corrupt
I like how they say it needs to be delayed because he’s campaigning. Fuck that. Crimes come first.
My guess is she'll grant a delay but won't cite his campaigning because she knows that won't fly with appellate judges.
She'll have enough other bullshit justifications to give Trump what he wants and get her kickback.
My understanding is that scheduling delays are not appealable, at least not by the prosecution. Judges have the right to set their own schedules.
She just doesn't want to look blatantly corrupt if and when anything does go to appeal though. She's doing her best to postpone this trial indefinitely while still maintaining something resembling plausible impartiality. I'm sure that when "Mid November 2024" comes around, she'll suddenly have another reason to delay because Trump will then be appealing the results of the election about 47 times, and heaven forbid her case interfere with that and after all that he's gonna need more time to prepare. So, January 2026 then? What? He'll be too old and suffering from dementia and therefore isn't competent to stand trial, even though he still appears on TV every day? Darn. I guess she'll just have to postpone this trial indefinitely. It's too bad......the people deserved to hear the truth, but whatever was she to do? The situation was completely unavoidable!!!
