    @ProPublica@newsie.social She faces the inventible situation her bias for Trump has reached the end with her Hail Mary ruling about special prosecutors. Appeals court can remove her, or when she loses and stays, she can decide to request reassignment, set case back months or longer with a new judge. She can’t stay without everyone seeing her incompetence protecting Trump. She likely knows Trump will be convicted and sentenced. She doesn’t want to be that judge. We’ll see.
