A Georgia appeals court has halted the election subversion conspiracy case against former President Donald Trump and several of his co-defendants until a panel of judges rules on whether Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis should be disqualified, according to a new order filed on Wednesday.
The 1/6 case still has a shot assuming the Supreme Court doesn’t outright say he has immunity, that’s the only thing holding it up.
Of course, Cannon is going to rule in Florida if Jack Smith has the right to actually, as Special Prosecutor, you know, prosecute the Florida case. I could see the Trump lawyers spinning that around and say “Well, if he can’t prosecute one case, then he can’t prosecute the other either.”
At which point somebody owes Bill Clinton a giant apology over the whole Kenneth Starr bullshit.
