00:00It's Benzinga, and here's what's on the block.
00:02Eileen Cannon, the Florida judge presiding over the classified documents case against
00:06Donald Trump, was urged by two senior judges to rescue herself due to perceived bias towards
00:11Trump.
00:12The judges cited Cannon's actions after the FBI seized documents from Mar-a-Lago, where
00:15she intervened on Trump's behalf and appointed a special master.
00:19Cannon's rulings have delayed Trump's trial to potentially after the 2024 election, and
00:23her refusal to silence his controversial claims has been criticized by his former counsel
00:27as dangerous and incendiary.
00:29Cannon's refusal to transfer her case led to the construction of a secure facility for
00:33document storage at taxpayer expense in the courthouse where she presides in Fort Pierce,
00:37a two-hour drive north of Miami.
