In the wake of a campaign by Donald Trump and his supporters to spread a false narrative that the search warrant for Mar-a-Lago in Trump's classified documents case contained special use of force language that marked Trump for death, special counsel Jack Smith has asked Judge Aileen Cannon to restrict Trump's statements to prevent him from inciting violence against law enforcement.

    Aren’t Americans ashamed???… this is a freak show circus!
  • Im 74, freedom of speech has really lost something over the years. Remember when we taught our kids to be truthful?
  • I am 72 years old, and in the course of my life I have had many many jobs, but not one single one of them, was worth casting aside my principles and my beliefs for - so I quit jobs which demanded that I sacrifice my soul to keep. Any person who is willing to throw away their moral principles in order to keep a job does not belong anywhere near the wheels of power in Washington or any state legislature. We need to vote such people out of office - THEY are the REAL "swamp."
  • @malenotyalc
    That Judge needs to have her law license taken away.
  • @danacowie4104
    If he has a problem with the law enforcement take away his secret service
  • @CthulhuInc
    cannon should be disbarreda and charged with perverting the course of justice
  • @Jen0714
    Can't wait to see her ruling on this one. If she doesn't do the right thing, that should be a done deal for her.
  • Oh...the request was to Judge Cannon....she will have to think about it for a few months.....:elbowbump:
  • @Crystalsgarden
    Yeah, with Cannon as the judge I doubt she'll do anything. She needs to be removed.
  • @sueelson8097
    Surely the allegations against him illegally holding into classified documents are so serious, that he should be held in jail awaiting trial?
  • @thjbird
    Cannon needs to be charged with obstruction of justice
  • Cannon should not be judge in this case. She should be indicted as a co-conspirator. The is the result of the obvious stupidity of having a judge appointed by the defendant hearing a case vital to National Security.
  • @MarJo333
    How gross !!! top secret documents in his bathroom. How he is not in prison for ABSOLUTE ESPIONAGE !!!
  • @user-ho8nc2zc1n
    Alien Cannon should be removed from the bench. And, disbarred. Unethical. Incompetent. "We the People Demand Justice Now '!" 🇺🇸...
  • @kcw1879
    She won't do ANYTHING that does not help Trump.
  • @Pete_952
    Blah blah, the lifetime criminal is still playing golf and giving the middle finger to America! 8 years of his crime spree shows two tiers of justice. Period.
  • @creekwalker62
    I remember that time in America, when 'fomenting' violence was illegal.
  • @jamesglass5402
    Trump should just be put away. Isn’t it time to have Judge Cannon removed? If someone is killed she should be held accountable for the crime.
