CORRECTION TO THIS STORY: Judge Cannon's father-in-law is NOT Federalist Society BIG WIG

Last edited Fri Sep 9, 2022, 02:14 PM - Edit history (1)


Someone fingered the wrong man.

Here is the obituary for her real father-in-law, who is dead.

That tweet, whose author is well respected, was an error.

Find this out BWO great investigation....and..like Paul Harvey...that is the rest of the story...just adds an additional layer of understanding..and insight...this is only one case of many facing tfg..

Just Security has been keeping a running list of ALL the litigation with all the updates...too numerous to mention..but a great site to visit....wondering if this case /hill is the one judge cannon wants to fall on her sword for...exposed and not i a good way...

Trump a "win" was going flush Aileen's career down the proverbial toilet...he had to know Aileen's defense of Trump, one of the most loathed men on the planet, was going to turn her into a pariah, a punchline, a cartoon..and yet, I think she's enjoying he fifteen minutes of infamy....

Few will see the breaking disclosure. They will possibly squirm a bit if at all until help from RW media will quickly turn attention away to acts of gun violence.

@PeterVroom1
I am deleting this tweet because it appears the information provided to me re: Cannon's father-in-law's identity is not reliable. My apologies and I will post a follow up shortly with updated information.


Note to Pete: You want to play journalist, act like it. more fact-check, less vroom-vroom.

...but I guess he just didn't confirm the story before posting.

And I took it on faith, too, because of his good reputation.
