4. This was all pretextual.

It was evident to any sane observer that the claimed "financial conflict" was a bogus and frivolous claim from the start.

There was absolutely ZERO need for the judge to conduct any hearings of any kind in order to make that determination -- and as a competent judge HE KNEW THAT.

So why go through this whole circus?

Well, there's a very obvious reason, and it's staring everyone in the face as we speak.

This Republican judge did this **to provide a pretext** for an "appearance of impropriety" claim by Kemp's DA-removal commission.

It's exactly that simple.

Expect a removal action by that commission to be incoming at high speed as the case picks back up.

This is how corruption works when the judge doesn't want to be **quite** as blatant as Cannon -- after all, he is still up for reelection in Fulton County -- but he still wants to play ball for the broader Republican team effort to protect the criminal leadership and the overall criminal enterprise.
