  Me:

  Did judge Cannon decide that special counsels were actually illegal? So why do we care? And if we do care about this special counsel shouldn’t we also care about the one charging trump about all those classified documents?

  Your response:

  No, that isn’t what she said at all. Not all special counsels are illegal. It is that Jack Smith was not appointed properly that made it illegal.

      Your original response didn’t you were echoing Cannon’s opinion rather than simply agreeing with her it was illegal.

      Apologies.

        It’s beyond my legal knowledge to know if her and Thomas are correct or not. This is a nuance the courts will have to sort out. I’m only repeating her opinion. Unlike most people I don’t expertise in everything and will admit my limits.

        Thank you for the apology.
