The Spin

Anti-Trump narrative

It appears Cannon, a Trump appointee, is thanking him through all her recent rulings in his favor. Trump was caught red-handed hiding classified documents, but Cannon initially delayed the trial and now has dismissed the case. Conservative-leaning appeals court judges have reversed her in the past, so the inexperienced Cannon may rightly be overruled again.

The New Republic

Pro-Trump narrative

Cannon's ruling doesn't take Trump under consideration, it upholds the Constitution. Smith's office wasn't created by Congress nor was he nominated by the president to receive Senate approval — thus he's been illegally investigating Trump. The Biden administration's weaponization of the DOJ has again hit a snag.
