#1 It's probably just a coincidence.

#2 Does really matter. They can always find a friendly judge. The people who requested this are the ones who just completed our descent to banana republic.

#4 ^ The mildly good news there would be that magistrate judges don't have lifetime tenure -- they have to be re-appointed every eight years after input from a "panel of citizens".

#5 Reinhart bailed on his gig with the government prosecuting Jeffrey Epstein and his accomplices so he could represent them, and he succeeded in getting his sex-trafficking clients immunity.

#6 I keep thinking this was so badly planned that there must be something else going on. Why use a lower level judge instead of a Federal One?

Is there anyway a FLA judge could be linked to DeSantes in lefty brains hoping to split GOP?

#8 #6 Not to be all geek about it, but this was a federal magistrate, not a Florida state magistrate. But if I were him I would have let a federal district judge do the honors. "I feel a touch of COVID coming on, but I think Judge XYZ is around..."
