"Major media outlets’ uniform criticism of Cannon’s ruling doesn’t change the fact that there’s still a prevailing cloud of “decorum” preventing those same outlets from stating the obvious: that Cannon is in no small part doing what she was hired to do by a broader movement of ideologues. Like Trump in some respects, Cannon is not an aberration, but an acute symptom and manifestation of something larger, and much more dangerous."
