As a GENERAL PROPOSITION -- when a Judge is inclined to rule against a particular participant, that Judge allows the participant to say pretty much anything and everything he/she wants. It's called "protecting the record."

What that does is cut-off the losing party from being able to claim "You didn't give me a chance to say everything I wanted to say, blah, blah, blah."

All it really does is eat up time, but the extra time spent in the hearing is a small fraction of what would be required if the judge was reversed and the matter had to be done over again.

I suspect that if Judge McAfee was of the opinion that Willis' conduct was simply unprofessional and unethical, but not disqualifying -- taking the worst case spin on everything presented by the defendants -- he would not be allowing his to grind on with Willis on the stand. But to let her say everything she wants to say, he has to let the questioning continue.

“How much would Trump’s shares be worth if it does in fact go public? It could be upwards of $4 billion. That’s billion with a B—not million with an M” 🎩 Citizens Free Press

The U.S. Supreme Court gave Special Counsel Jack Smith one-week to respond to President Trump's request to delay his 2020 election interference trial.

Trump's attorneys filed an emergency appeal with the Supreme Court contesting a decision by the DC Court of Appeals that found Trump is not immune from prosecution. The request from Trump is for temporary stay to block the appeals court mandate from taking effect.
