Lisa Cook Claims It Was All A "Clerical Error" - And This Is The Nevertrump Activist Judge Who Will Decide

by Tyler Durden

(Update: 1532ET): A Biden-appointed federal judge who defied a Supreme Court ruling earlier this month has been 'randomly' assigned to the (Biden-appointed) Lisa Cobb case, after the Federal Reserve Governor filed a lawsuit challenging her Monday firing by President Trump. Her complaint doesn't deny the underlying allegations of mortgage fraud - and instead argues that she couldn't have been fired 'for cause' over something that happened before she was confirmed to the Fed.

Cook also argues that claiming two houses as her 'primary residence' at the same time may have been a simple 'clerical error.'

So, we're supposed to believe that a Harvard graduate and 'Top leading economist' - who's tasked with setting Fed policy - simply missed the 'primary residence' designation plastered all over the mortgage papers she signed?

Anyway, here's the new judge, Jia Cobb, who will weigh in on the case.

Cobb recently defied the Supreme Court according to the Trump administration - after she continued to block the "expedited removal" of migrants despite a Supreme Court ruling that upheld the legality of such removals.

"Will they be summarily removed from a country that — as they are swept up at checkpoints and outside courtrooms, often by plainclothes officers without explanation or charges — may look to them more and more like the countries from which they tried to escape?" Cobb wrote in an 84-page decision against the deportation effort.

Cobb was also the judge in Jan. 6th defendant Ryan Samsel's case. Samsel was notably the first rioter to charge across police lines. After he was found guilty, prosecutors wanted him to go away for 20 years, however his February sentencing was called off after President Trump issued a blanket pardon to all J6ers.

Now, the activist judge will decide at least the first step in Cook's fate - which is sure to be appealed to the DC Circuit Court of Appeals by the losing party, after which we're guessing it's headed to the Supreme Court.
