Trump Jan. 6 Indictment

The judge shared plans to be out of the country.

The case is now stalled in the district court as President Trump pursues a presidential immunity defense to dismiss the case in an appeals court.

In explaining why the prosecutors will not be held in contempt, the judge took the blame for an ambiguous order.

Defense attorneys are also asking for sanctions against two other prosecutors.

It argued Trump shouldn’t be allowed to make First Amendment arguments or accuse the prosecutors of election interference.

‘The resolution of the question presented is pivotal to whether the former President himself will stand trial.’

‘In 234 years of American history, no President ever faced criminal prosecution for his official acts. Until 19 days ago ...’

‘The prosecution has improperly and unlawfully attempted to advance this case by serving thousands of pages of additional discovery.’

Defense attorneys argue that this is an improper rushing of proceedings.

Trump stated the order was a “big win.”

The defense and prosecution clashed over an expedited schedule in court filings.

The prosecution and defense are putting forward counter views about who can be considered part of the government’s prosecution team.

Defendants do not have to reveal this strategy in advance, but Judge Tanya Chutkan states her order would prevent delaying the trial.

She did specify that the order did not strip First Amendment rights entirely because President Trump could still criticize President Joe Biden.

The attorneys wrote that such censorship of a political candidate constituted a ‘heckler’s veto.’

Just after the order was issued, he told a crowd of supporters in Iowa he would appeal the order.
