You can see the order on my Twitter feed here. It's not the December date the feds wanted and it's not post-election as Trump wanted. There's a very detailed schedule, so I wonder if this date will move.

And the trial is in Ft. Pierce, which is going to be very tough on the media... Judge Cannon's courtroom has only two rows for spectators. The trial should probably be in Miami and it should be televised.

To be continued come calendar call. Please you naïve people - not going to trial (if ever) prior to the election.
It could certainly be continued again but that certainly won’t be at calendar call on this type of case just six days before trial where the Clerk will have already sent out jury summons for an extraordinary number of jurors. Continuance upon good cause set forth in a Motion filed six weeks in advance sure. Ore tenus at calendar call in federal court on a case with a schedule laid out like that? No way.
No way you are going to put the soon to be Republican nominee in the dock two months before the convention and 5 months before the election. There are sound legal arguments to dimiss the indictment. Maybe it will be dismissed before the trail date and the 11th will have to deal with it after the election. Or, and this is thinking outside the box, she puts Trump in the hot seat and JOA's the whole case an d sends him to the convention a couquering hero. Trump, though, will be facing another state indictment in Georgia and a federal one in DC. The powers that be are scared to death of him.
Why not just put it in Washington and do away with a jury. Just find him guilty. The case is from the Northern Division and that is where it should be tried. By the way, if you want to see some really intemperate language from an otherwise very cool, well-respected judge, take a look at Judge Middlebrooks's first few paragraphs on the Trump sanctions order. Breathtaking, but it does show the shortcomings of Chief Justice's view that federal judges leave their biases in the cloakroom.
really!
"The powers that be are scared to death of" Trump. I bet they are scared of him getting the reins of power again. So am I. Sort of how I would be if a toddler was handling a loaded firearm near my family.
