Thanks. I suppose the election result mooted the appeal, based on the stupid idea that a sitting president is above the law.
And thanks for the other points as well -- sure judges shouldn't be getting booted from cases frivolously.
However, I do think there's a basic structural problem with how due process applies in practice in the US legal system, where the worst defendants in the world get off easy if they are rich/connected enough
As someone who has been on the PD side of things?
Believe me, I know how bad the system can get
Unfortunately, the appeal was dropped as a result of Trump winning in early 2025.
