(The Hill) - Harry Litman, a former U.S. attorney and deputy assistant attorney general, said Monday that Judge Aileen Cannon’s dismissal of the classified documents case against former President Trump is “simply indefensible.”
“As a legal decision by a district court judge, it’s simply indefensible,” Litman told CNN’s Laura Coates Monday evening. “It almost doesn’t make sense to try to talk about it in legal terms. This is, as I said, the first Project 2025 opinion."
"The principle is only loyalty to Trump," he added in the interview.
Litman’s criticism of Cannon comes after she delivered the former president one of his biggest legal victories yet by tossing his classified documents indictment in its entirety.
