    Lets hope this will lead to a real judge to preside over the case, and not just a Trump Minion.

        She made a ruling that upended decades of precedent concerning the constitutionality of special council appointments.

        She may work for Conservatives, but she ain’t SCOTUS, and she doesn’t have the same ability to rewrite the law based on specious reasoning. Plus, she’s already been reprimanded and reversed by the 11th Circuit twice for questionable rulings.

        She doesn’t need to communicate bias, she just needs to make it clear that she’s unfit to adjudicate this case, which is pretty obvious at this point. If Jack Smith can prove any bias, it will just be icing on the cake.
