They should be prosecuting the case, not begging the courts to continue the case. This is ridiculous
In order to prosecute the case, it must be reopened. In essence Cannon’s dismissal of the case must be overruled by a higher court, the 11th, circuit, for this to happen. Then prosecution can proceed. I agree that this whole series of shenanigans, speicifically by Cannon are absolutely ridiculous. And there is a ‘legal system’ and it must proceed according to specific laws, rules, and procedures.
Except for official presidential acts. (could it be more vague?) –SCOTUS
Stacked court is stacked
I don’t think the vagueness is going to be a major factor here. After someone stops being the president, by definition they cannot do a presidential act, official or otherwise.
Clarence and Sam would disagree, for reasons.

Idk what’s behind this bot but it’s absolutely dog shit
Right??? AP is left center?!? They report the literal facts so I guess facts are left center?
Wait that actually checks out…
Reality has a known left bias!
This poor, poor man. He’s effectively banging his head against a brick wall every day.
But over the last year, the case has been snarled by delays as Cannon, a Trump-appointed judge, entertained assorted Trump team motions before ultimately dismissing the prosecution in a stunning decision that brought the proceedings to at least a temporary halt.
It wasn’t a stunning decision. This was predicted by many analysts. Cannon delayed as long as possible and then came to the conclusion that we knew was coming. The point was to delay, to get everything closer to election day, to protect Mr. Orange.
