The judge who will weigh Trump’s move to fire Federal Reserve Board member Lisa Cook has tangled with his policies before. U.S. District Judge Jia Cobb is a Biden appointee who recently ruled against Trump on deportations.

It shouldn't matter but Trump's appointed tools like Aileen Cannon to the bench so this whole "rule of law" thing is tenuous

Every time I see something about a legal challenge in the USA it always comes with that wee note "appointed by Xxxx". It seems to be an accepted given that, the law, is not the primary concern of judges. Which is why it is so easy for MAGA to dismiss court rulings.

Same thoughts here. This is how the ignorant journalists work to undermine trust in the justice system. Who the judges are appointed by has little to do with the outcome. These folks should know better than play into the right wing playbook.

Saying she ruled against Trump makes it sound personal and a game. She will review the facts of the case and make a ruling. It's the facts of this case that matters not that she's "tangled" with trump in the past

Once again, we see Biden‘s incredible foresight in pushing as many judicial nominations through as he possibly could. He knew what he was doing, but many people did not give him the credit he deserves.

She has no business weighing anything. She'd break the scales. The judge is a deep state operative. She is overstepping her authority. I call it prosecutorial misconduct. Lisa Cook is a hypocrite. Doesn't practice what she enforces. She's guilty. Trump has the authority to fire crooked Cook.

Being a Biden appointee doest guarantee an outcome that's against tRump. She'll follow the law and make a decision. That's her job as a judge. As long as they follow the law, that's what matters.

Tangled is not the right word to use in regard to a decision that she was forced to make because of a trump questionable action! Judges don't tangle with issues, they decide who made the best argument in support of their opinion as to the meaning of, and the compliance with, OUR Laws!
