She is being cautious. There's a lot of government malfeasance to sort out.
I tried to rep you, but it looks like I did recently
Indeed. And she is continuing with the case as she's setting hearings for various matters, so I really don't see what leg Smith would have to stand on if he tried to speed things along. Leftists are just upset that they don't have a judge who is willing to treat Trump differently for political reasons, speeding up his case to meet Smith's election timelines, where scores of other defendants are waiting months to years to be heard.

She's giving Smith the opportunity to explain and to prove many things, such as the tainting of the evidence, the information that had come out with the unredacted emails, who did what, when, where and why, how and why Smith was given that position, etc. Smith will probably be eating his gun soon...no way will he be able to explain any of those things. She's doing it by the numbers so there will hopefully be less of a blowback when she shuts this down.

The following motion of Trump's was sealed. It was unsealed at the same time that Cannon had postponed the trial.
PRESIDENT TRUMP’S MOTION TO DISMISS THE INDICTMENT BASED ON
SELECTIVE AND VINDICTIVE PROSECUTION
INTRODUCTION
President Donald J. Trump respectfully submits that the Indictment must be dismissed on the basis of the Office’s selective and vindictive prosecution.1 “With one exception, there is no record of the Department of Justice prosecuting a former president or vice president for mishandling classified documents from his own administration.” Hur Report at 10-11.2 The exception is President Trump. The basis is his politics and status as President Biden’s chief political rival. Thus, this case reflects the type of selective and vindictive prosecution that cannot be tolerated. Accordingly, further discovery and a hearing are necessary, and the Superseding Indictment must be dismissed. 3
DISCUSSION
I. Relevant Facts
American history is chock full of public examples involving alleged mishandling of classified information and documents, which did not result in the type of politically motivated charges that the Special Counsel’s Office has brought against President Trump and his codefendants. Set forth below are some of the most glaring and egregious examples.
Judge Cannon has been looking for reasons and ways to get the trial delayed for as long as possible. None of this is a surprise, at least not to me.
Yeah, this isn't a surprise at all.
