today" in florida, who is judge eileen cannon? what's next in donald trump's classified documents case? this gives you a little bit of information on this -- it says -- the justice department didn't meetly respond. it's down here. here it is. who is judge eileen cannon? so here's her background. born in columbia in 1981. she came to the -- colombia in 1981. she came to the u.s. as a child. she was a federal prosecutor, member of the federalist society, which she joined in 2005 while in law school. she had been a lawyer for just 12 years, the minimum 10 years set by the american bar association before her assent to the judiciary. florida republican u.s. senators rubio and scott recommended cannon's appointment and the u.s. senate confirmed her in a 56-21 vote in november of 2020. nominated to the federal birch by trump. trump's case wasn't her first high profile case. in april, 2022, she sentenced a palm beach county man to 18 months in prison for making death threats against house speaker nancy pelosi. and u.s. representative alex

court and the timing also dropping in the first day of the rnc was a big tell when it comes to eileen cannonemember the source. almost two years ago the court of appeals not just overturned one of judge cannon's rulings in trumps favor but that court rebuked her for her decision. what can you tell us about the makeup of the 11th circuit and if they revive the charges will they be inclined to remove her from the case? >> those are two questions. i did my homework because i was want to make you proud. the current active judges on the 11th circuit i will tell you there are six that are trump appointees but that doesn't mean anything because as you noted right now, when eileen cannon was appealed to the 11th circuit she had judges that kicked it back telling her she had done something wrong and abused her discretion in the decisions that were reached. the 11 circuits makeup, even though it may be made up of judges appointed by trump and george w. bush, that doesn't mean that those judges are going to ignore president like eileen cannon did. if the charges are revived or if the case is reversed a

he is the only lawyer here but this decision in south florida by judge eileen cannon essentially sayingspecial counsel jack smith is unconstitutional, period, full stop, does this end the lawfare? does this end the whole lawfare attack, that plus the supreme court decision? >> definitely think it does because even at a minimum it will stop jack smith and the justice department on their current approach to this entire situation, and especially now with the country moving focused from all of the meandering politics and the backbiting is what's important for the american people going forward. this convention is shifting the focus of our country to being a united america. i think lawfare is coming to an end. quite frankly should have never started to begin with. the case never made any sense to begin with. i'm not an attorney, but i can read federal law. presidents have a responsibility to go through their records over a five-year period to negotiate the national archives. this version of the national archives, for whatever reason short-circuited that process. we should never even have been

for trump and republicans, the good news seemed to flow all day monday with cheers after judge eileen cannonunning decision to dismiss the classified documents case against trump, ruling special counsel jack smith's appointment violated the constitution. top republicans say these developments, coupled with the surge of goodwill for trump in the wake of the assassination attempt have left him and us with strong position as the campaign heats up. >> what kind of day was this politically for republicans? >> look, this may be one of the most historic for republicans in the last decade. >> reporter: what's the mood with delegates and advisors? >> it is unified and rocking. >> reporter: he said his acceptance speech set for thursday night would be home digger of president biden's record, but now in the aftermath of the shooting, it is a chance to bring the country together. i was given that chance, trump said. republicans here see senator j.d. vance is a fellow traveler of former president trump on the is to use, but they say their sources for other issues too, nikki haley, traditional republican

clarence thomas, i won't even call it an easter egg, it was a big flag like eileen cannon, in case younion on that which is in support of you dismissing the case. he wrote that in the immunity ruling. first of all, is this going to get appealed up to the supreme court and do you think that clarence thomas's opinion hold sway with the other conservative members of the court? >> i think it will, assuming the 11th circuit does the right thing and overturns her ruling, then i think that will go up to the supreme court and at least it is notable that no other justice joined justice thomas in that concurrence. the reason for that may be that the fact is, no attorney had raised it before then. it was not argued, so they may have just not joined because it wasn't properly before them, justice thomas, decided to waive this flag before judge cannon and say here is permission, here's the invitation to cut and paste my reasoning into your opinion. >> setting the supreme court aside, given the transparently partisan, i'm not a lawyer but even from the outside, she looks transparently partisan. do y

classified documents case in mar-a-lago against donald trump, the decision appointed district judge eileen cannon'se was just surprisingly shocking. i know that may seem like a contradiction, but surprisingly should not given everything we have seen from judge cannon throughout the proceedings. many have accused her of deliberately slowing the case down and displaying open hostility to special counsel jack smith. the case against truck for obtaining classified materials and obstructing justice was basically considered the strongest of the multiple cases against him. by slow walking the proceedings, cannon has all but ensured that this case will never see the light of day in front of a jury before elections happen in november. smith has since appealed cannon's dismissal, which was based on a widely this credible theory. i want to make this plane for everyone watching, because what aileen cannon it was as important as how she did it. so, here comes the lawyer talk, donald trump's team files a motion to dismiss the indictment based on this walkie. that involves a clause of the constitution. then, judg

la jueza federal eileen cannon estÁ desestimando el caso de los documentos clasificados.ias. hemos hablado de cuatro grandes casos. casos criminales contra donald trump. estamos diciendo que ahora solo hablaremos de tres. quÉ significa? que se desestima el caso? >> bueno, significa que el caso no va a proceder en corte en la forma en que se habÍa preparado. ahora, la fiscalÍa en este caso, tiene el derecho de apelar la decisiÓn a la corte de apelaciones y ultimadamente, podrÍa parar en la corte suprem. no cabe duda que el fiscal va a apelar esta decisiÓn, ya que otras cortes han han encontrado que sÍ, que el fiscal especial es un oficial inferior y consecuentemente no necesite la prueba del senado, que es la razÓn por la cual la juez cannon ha determinado que el caso debe ser desestimado. >> eso me llama mucho la atenciÓn que la justificaciÓn de desestimar ese caso es ese nombramiento de jack smith como fiscal especial. abogado eso hace tambalear otros casos en el que jack smith tambiÉn estÁ luchando, digamos, en corte contra donald trump. >> absolutamente. si el fiscal e

. >> bill: it always seemed that eileen cannon was a bit hesitant. she was the judge saying hang on here a little bit. and think about this, professor turley. these cases were proceeding in new york. the carroll case you said you couldn't do that. the 34 felony counts that kept going with judge merchan's case in his courtroom and eileen cannon put her voice into this saying wait a minute on this and wait a minute on that. she seemed to be the one bucking the trend. andy, is that a fair read? >> i think it's a fair read with respect to some things. although i think she is giving him a fair trial, which is not something that has happened to trump in washington or new york. the problem with this issue is not peculiar to judge cannon, her detecting of it. justice thomas wrote about this issue in the immunity case. attorneys general have filed a court brief on this issue pointing out and explaining why the appointment was unconstitutional. >> bill: thank you, andy, stand by. >> dana: jonathan, you tweeted this was the three-point shot for trump. the easie

it says that judge eileen cannon dismissed the classified documents case in a ruling today, she said the appointment special counsel jack smith violated the constitution, quote, in the end it seems the executive growing comfort in appointing court regulatory special counsel's in the more recent era has followed an ad hoc powder and with little judicial scrutiny. so that is a developing story. we'll keep you updated on that but that case has now been dismissed. let's talk to ray -- >> guest: amen. >> host: syracuse, new york, go ahead, ray, good morning, mr. owens. i'm glad a conjugate i had no idea that this week because of the convention that c-span is going to be on more than normal. so that's great. i'm thankful for that. because i saw your initial few questions that you answered, it gives me, i definitely want to watch the convention where, i'm usually too busy for that kind of stuff but i'm going to make an effort deathly. so thanks a lot for being there. timing was great and thanks to c-span. >> host: yes, and way we're going to be on an extra hour throughout the convention, so

in her ruling, judge eileen cannon granted the defense motion to dismiss over concerns about special counsel jack smith. trump's lawyers argued that smith was improperly appointed by the attorney general, rather than through congressional approval . the case was considered the strongest of the four criminal cases against trump . this afternoon, the special counsel announced he intends to appeal the dismissal. >>> still ahead, and east bay man is accused of three back-to-back armed robberies. why he had just been granted early release from prison before the crime spree. >>> scott peterson fighting for his freedom. >>> the heat that we have dealt with for the first couple of weeks in july taking a break thanks to the hey, flex. considering there's a heatwave, it's kinda chilly in here. oh, that's because i'm pre-cooling the house with the ac before 4 pm. then i'll turn our thermostat to a comfortable 78 or higher that way i could stay cool later. ooh, what about me? you're never cool. oh. >>> tragic news from the city of alameda, where a 1-year-old has become the fifth person to die as

that said, i disagree with judge eileen cannon's decision. think there is plenty of statutory authority. the justice department has, in order to appoint independent counsels or special counsels. >> but turley is correct. the effect of this is that it will have to be litigated through the 11th circuit and then up to the supremes. there's no way that happens before the supreme court, before the election. so i think this case is effectively dead, and i think the other cases are effectively dead. and so, you know, while i think the decision is wrong on the part of canon i've also been very critical of the justice department for bringing these cases so late into the political season and the manhattan trial example, an ag letitia james case in new york, those were travesties of justice. those cases would have never been brought if the defendant's name was not donald trump. and so i think the democrats and the left have really checked a lot of their traditional objections to, selective and political prosecutions. and i think it's sort of been a the

and this judge eileen cannon, as you mentioned, to funded by donald trump, has made many controversial decisions. legal scholars have question her personality, because in some what i'm usually pretty much every motion the term lawyers made. she granted his hearing and they would take a very long time to answer. and so it was seen by many that she was really slow rolling the process, which is exactly what trump teen wanted. they wanted to make sure that this case, which was the most damaging case that he was facing as of 90 plus cause. they want to make sure that that didn't happen before the election because if he is like president, he can simply direct the justice department to get rid of the case. and again, as you mentioned, is about teaching classified documents in his home in florida. so i'm in new jersey . some of these were highly class, believe some of the talks about us weapons systems. but again, she is throwing this out because she said, this special counsel jackson that was not a point $25.00, the president are confirmed by the senate. this really does go against decades is

eileen cannon ruled that the special counsel had been unlawfully appointed.ision was the latest legal victory for the trumpcare. this appeal could result in months of legal wrangling. in the middle east, an israeli delegation touched down in cairo, egypt where international mediators are trying to push following cease-fire deal. benjamin netanyahu faced criticism from opposition lawmakers in jerusalem for his management of the war. he insisted that hamas will only bow to heavy pressure. >> we are making progress in achieving our goals and freeing hostages and eliminating hamas and ensuring gaza will not pose another threat to israel. i can tell you that hamas is indeed under pressure. the more we pressure, the more they will give up. >> israel released 13 palestinians who had been detained for weeks. some wept when they reunited with loved ones. others described brutal beatings and showed signs of bruising. those claims have not been independently verified. commemorations are taking place for the 10 year anniversary of the shooting of a malaysian airport flig

trial -- the trial will not take place before the election, and the way things are going with eileen cannonwhat about fulton county? >> i think fulton county has now been further delayed as well. because that case relies on many of the same allegations we see in the federal case. even though trump can't pardon himself for a state case, can't have his officials dismiss a state case, this immunity argument would apply in a state case. just as judge chutkan has to engage in an evidentiary hearing, i think we're going to have to see the same thing in georgia. >> what a day. what a year for the skourlt. at some point we can absorb everything that's happened including chevron which we haven't even begun to dig into and all those implications. catherine christian, barbara mcquade, thank you very much. >>> that does it for this edition of "andrea mitchell reports." follow the show on social media @mitchellreports. you can watch us on youtube. go to msnbc.com/andre "chris jansing reports" starts right after this.

look at the decision by eileen cannon and the documents case, they didn't raid hillary clinton or joe biden's house. we have a weapon iced system of justice. i talk about all the time and it scares me as an american that this has been allowed to happen. by the way, nobody in the media, nobody, on the democratic side, they did not care about a phony valuation of the house at 18 million, a perusal of palm beach real estate shows it's closer to a billion but they didn't care about statute of limitations and illegal nda put together by a lawyer labelled a legal expense, nothing wrong with a upgraded to 34 felony charges. >> they've been taking that one way or the other. >> i did 50 hours of testimony for treason. that's a crime punishable by death. i'm not the upstanding citizen that hunter biden is but it feels a little bit harsh. it feels excessive that that would be the case. so it's insane, they tried to take them out legally, they tried to bankrupt him, they've tried -- he's the first person in the world who has to pay a half billion dollars fine for paying back loans on time with in

in the way that eileen cannon just did a pretty that is what you would get more of.ve in a country in which you are forced with the pseudo-christianity, where you have to believe in god and do the things they say their god wants you to do. i argue is the same god that they used to justify slavery in the first place. when we look with diversity, equity and inclusion with what they have done in the supreme court, we see this taking place. the issue that we do not understand is that the last nail in the coffin is trump getting into the presidency. the scariest part about that is that let us say he decides he does not want to leave the white house. who will shake him? the supreme court has decided that shaking him is not something they are interested in doing. >> david, i want to ask you about j.d. vance. you ran the ohio democratic party. we are seeing a guy who went from being a never trumper and describing trump as america's hitler to standing next to him, arm in arm, in lockstep, as his vice presidential pick and ready to fight the fight to get to the white house. wh

meanwhile judge eileen cannon is here eating pretrial motions in a document retention case some legal on other networks, not all of them but some seem to think search warrants have never been challenged before. indictments have never been challenged before the jurisdiction of a prosecutor has never been challenged before. in reality trump's lawyers are doing what lawyers do all across the country every single day and by the way judges do not operate on political calendars they operate on their own calendars. speaking of which supreme court is trying to thread a needle. surely presidents cannot assassinate political rivals they can order it military strikes on non- americans overseas without fear of future prosecution. so what are the limits? what new rule will emerge question what should we expect from a high court on this pending immunity case? joining us is only favorite legal minds former federal prosecutor fox news contributor andy mccarthy. a welcome counselor from going to talk fast and give you more time in florida are there any defense arguments you think can significantly alt

to the ed meese, michael mukasey amicus i guess to the decisions in the south florida and judge eileen cannongoing to look at that. is there a chance that jack smith may be thrown out. the cases may be thrown out but what about his standing? >> we have a lot of steps to get there before he is directly challenged. a lot of evidence and evidence will be challenged first. jack smith that appointment would should be deeply unsettling to the american people. larry: i was never confirmed by senate. >> that is right. he was never elected, confirmed. he is barely on the payroll as it goes for idea of officers of the united states. there is a special trust and a special process that goes through. i think the idea we have one person being appointed to this position by the political enemy of former president and not go through a democratic process is its own right an attack on democracy. that is the sort of thing that the left is screaming about when it comes to donald trump but that doesn't seem to be all that consistent. it is inherently contradictory because we have, it is not just jack smith. we see

another delay from judge eileen cannon today hours after trump's legal team asked for a state into onceave the charges dismissed. joining me now, state attorney for trump's home district of palm beach county, florida. my really good friend. here we go again, dave. this should not surprise you, given the judge has been widely criticized for slowly walking this case. she has given both sides time to respond to the supreme court ruling that granted trump immunity. do you not expect her to dismiss, or will she try to separate official, unofficial ex. >> goodie back, alex, if judge canon does try to dismiss charges against donald trump, she would try to appeal to the 11th circuit, would probably be reversed and eventually removed from the case. she has got to tread carefully. delay is her middle name. she will continue to slow walk this case, or continue to err on the side of delay and indulge the former president with every request. yes, this decision by the supreme court on immunity would further delay the documents case, which is the strongest case against donald trump. his case was never

. >> justice thomas, he's more or less given ammunition to judge eileen cannon and his concurrence on immunity willing to casting a shadow of a doubt on the legitimacy of special counsel jack smith's appointment. trump's lawyers used it in their latest filings. jack smith responded late friday asking cannon to not rely on that. how do you expect judge cannon to proceed? >> you never know with judge cannon. it's the equivalent of a conference call but through the federal reports. here's what thomas wrote, he said i totally agree with roberts, i totally agree with my colleagues. i write separately to highlight another way in which it may violate our constitutional structure. really? he write separately just to talk a little bit about what, the very motion in front of judge cannon? what judge cannon take the hint and apply it to the very motion in front of her? you bet she would. it really has this unseemly communication across the wires through the u.s. reports. why this sole concurrent saying i just want to highlight a few things that are not really at issue here now that we have cited

concurrence in that case, is that it suggests that maybe the justices are not that different from eileen cannonst better at picking their spots, instead of haphazardly doing everything they can do to possibly benefit donald trump, they just sneak at where it really matters and give him immunity or in thomas' case, claim that the special prosecutor and prosecution is unconstitutional. it is worrisome. i mean, we are going into, you know, a very difficult election. if trump wins, we could be going into a very difficult presidency. the courts, from aileen cannon, all the way to the bakehouse at the supreme court, seem to be signaling they have no interest at raining at donald trump. >> you know, donald trump alleging in his motion for relief et cetera is that the doj is violating its own 60 day rule or that the doj will not avoid the appearance of election interference. you talk about inappropriate language, i talk about bad faith legal arguments. trump was indicted last august 2023 at this case. >> yeah, you know, the role i think has some wisdom behind it, that the department of justice will tak

this was eileen cannon. and you don't always think that trump plays that well with women. case which is great. well i say it's great. but of course we'll have to provide balance and someone else will have to say it's bad. but this was the they argued that the special counsel, jack smith, was unlawfully appointed and his office was improperly funded by the justice department, and so it violated the appointments clause in the united states constitution. >> and this was relating to the criminal case around the trump having classified documents at his house in mar—a—lago. >> yeah, yeah. which which we all know he can do what he wants. he said, i have every right to have those boxes and he can do it. he was he was a president. so it's a great thing for the country. i think america, if, you know, trump's just survived this terrible assassination attempt, now he's surviving the lawfare because i think people are so sick of this kind of thing. and i think the assassination attempt sort of makes it even more sickening the way they've been attacking trump with things like lawfare. i
