The injunction lasts until three days after the 11th Circuit rules on a pending request to block the release of the report over a separate matter involving Trump's co-defendants.

Summary

U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon temporarily blocked the release of special counsel Jack Smith’s report on Donald Trump’s criminal cases.

The injunction will last until three days after the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals rules on a related case involving Trump co-defendants Walt Nauta and Carlos De Oliveira.

Nauta and De Oliveira argue that releasing the report could jeopardize their right to a fair trial.

Cannon, who previously ruled Smith’s appointment unconstitutional, issued the order to “preserve the status quo” pending appellate decisions.

    “Judge aiming to be ranked as most corrupt judge in history, helps Trump AGAIN.”

    I fucking hate how obvious this outcome was going to be.

    Aileen Cannon is a horrible person and should be tried for judicial interference if ever America returns to sanity.

    Nobody needs to pardon anyone. Biden should just release it himself because he has full immunity.

      No way!

      The democrats will be taking 98 year old Donald Trump out on the campaign trail in 20 years, so they don’t want to burn any bridges.

      Biden is senile, he is just another puppet owned by the same wall street military and prison industry profiteers that support trump. The dnc and rnc are funded and beholden to the same financial interests. America hasnt been a true democracy probably since FDR died. If not then it was soon after that point.

    If they have any balls left, they’d just release it anyway and have Biden pardon them.

    I don’t think they’ll do it, but they should.

      They should have leaked it before the election, then gone on TV and pledged to find the leaker. Republicans do it all the time.

      Have you not been following? Every single decision the judicial branch and DOJ has made has protected Trump. Democrats are feckless and dance for the same masters.

    Yeah, it’s not going to look good for her or Trump when the evidence is released that his campaign directly paid for travel and lodging for groups of people that assaulted the Capitol

      Do you honestly believe that there is anything that could be written in that report that would make a difference? I don’t even mean something plausible. I mean literally anything. Because I don’t. It could say that Trump invented time travel and used it exclusively to help Hitler kill more Jews and nothing meaningful would happen. That has been proven over and over again and yet we’re still constantly hearing “yeah but this time it will be taken seriously”.

        It wouldn’t make a difference to Trump supporters, but drawing a clear financial support line between him and the insurrectionist would prove treason. At that point the military could step in, or really anyone that’s taken the oath of service, and they would be justified
