She’s held to the same standard as any other judge.

which seems to be no standard at all...

All the more reason Smith should file a motion for recusal.

yet he inexplicably does not... hmm I wonder

He has not, but while her actions have been unconventional, she’s toed the line a bit when challenged. I’m hoping that removing the case from the calendar entirely is what pushes Smith to act.

I can bet you one million internet points he will not move against her.

Believe me, I will be very happy to lose this bet to you... but I have been burnt too many times to believe that will happen

We should have been rioting a long time ago. All the “it takes time for airtight case” and “ you only get one shot at the king” boiling frogs
