The special counsel's statement announcing the appeal reinforces that Cannon's ruling is out of step with other courts and that Smith isn't operating as a rogue.
I’m honestly surprised that she dismissed at this stage. If she could have dragged the case to the point where they had selected a jury, then dismissed for some reason, there would have been no right to an appeal. I do understand that Clarence Thomas essentially suggested that Cannon should take this route in one of his concurrences, but it seems like the wrong strategy when there was a possibility to dismiss without the possibility of appeal.
I don’t mean that I wish she had dismissed later. I just mean that I’m surprised because I thought their strategy was going to be different with this case.
What you have to understand is Thomas is really stupid. He is peak Dunning-Kruger, and possibly the stupidest person to ever serve on SCOTUS. He has no idea what he is doing and almost no understanding of the law.

Clarence Thomas may not know much about the law, he does know how to sexual harass women.
