Do you think that in three years you will have forgotten this image, Dali asked Gala in 1931.
Having seen it once, I could never forget it, she replied.

Judge Aileen Cannon Just Handed Donald Trump a Massive Favor
The judge in Donald Trumps classified documents case just keeps helping him out.

The New Republic, February 8, 2024
The judge presiding over Donald Trumps classified documents lawsuit just did the former president a massive favor in his efforts to delay the trial.
U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannona Trump appointeeruled Tuesday that special counsel Jack Smiths team, which has been investigating Trump for hoarding classified documents at Mar-a-Lago, must release some classified information to Trumps lawyers during discovery. Those details include the names of certain potential witnesses, the conduct of some individuals (which they havent been charged for), and the FBI code name for a separate investigation.
Smith has opposed unsealing certain documents, arguing that doing so would give Trump an opportunity to seek even more information. That would delay the trial, which is currently scheduled to begin in May.
SNIP...
Trump was charged in Florida with keeping national defense secrets, making false statements, and conspiracy to obstruct justice, among other things, for hoarding classified materials at Mar-a-Lago. His body man, Walt Nauta, and a Mar-a-Lago employee Carlos De Oliveira have also been charged.
