This should drive crazy old man Trump even crazier. Look for more loony raps similar to those about cannibals, sharks, batteries, and furniture; and look for totally disorganized answers to focused questions, such as his fuzzy ramble about child care in which "My daughter Ivanka" was his idea of a complete thought.

Free Article: #DCTrial Special Counsel Asks Supreme Court to Move Quickly in Trump Immunity Case
After an appeals court rejected the former president’s claim that he may not be prosecuted, Jack Smith, the special counsel, stressed to the justices that speed was in the public interest. Included is a citation to the Special Prosecutor's brief to SCOTUS stating why Trump's request for a stay should be rejected. In my opinion, everyone should read it. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/02/14/us/supreme-court-trump-immunity.html?unlocked_article_code=1.Vk0.Tjq_.nAAIAJDofuH-&smid=url-share

Jack Smith Lays Out His Strategy

Jack Smith filed a motion in limine Wednesday morning. As we’ve discussed previously, this is a type of motion used to obtain a pre-trial ruling from the judge regarding the admissibility of certain types of evidence at trial. Decisions about the admissibility of evidence are within the trial judge’s discretion. They are only reversible error (the kind that can invalidate a conviction) if the court of appeals believes the judge abused their discretion when they admitted a piece of evidence. This means prosecutors must be careful. On the one hand, they must ensure they can put in all of the evidence that is essential to prove their case. But they must also take care that they don’t push the envelope too far when it comes to either admitting their evidence or efforts to exclude evidence a defendant wants to offer.

#DCTrial @AriMelber It is assumed that the judge wants to get her trial underway. I suppose she is counting on SCOTUS to make a quick decision. How is this going to work out if SCOTUS takes its sweet time in making a ruling?

#DCTrial WASHINGTON Oct 29 (Reuters) - A federal judge on Sunday reinstated a gag order she imposed on Donald Trump in the Washington case accusing him of trying to overturn his 2020 election defeat, denying his bid for a stay pending appeal.

The order prohibited Trump from targeting the special counsel prosecuting his case or witnesses who might be called to testify about his efforts to upend his election loss. https://www.reuters.com/legal/judge-reinstates-gag-order-trump-election-case-2023-10-29/
