President Donald Trump’s classified documents case set off fireworks as lawyers on both sides started yelling at each other in the Florida courtroom. Also, Judge Aileen Canon is worried that Special Counsel Jack Smith’s case might be too complicated for jurors. The made-for-TV spectacle continues in the never-ending lawfare against President Trump.
As you likely remember, Jack Smith’s trial date against Trump is on indefinite hold because of “the myriad and interconnected pretrial . . . issues,” as Judge Canon described it. The judge paused the trial after reports came out that Rep. Jim Jordan (OH-4) had launched an investigation after Smith’s team had admitted to tampering with Trump’s classified documents.
Before the trial can resume, several motions must be filed. So the hearing that took place yesterday was the first step in resolving these issues – and it became an epic screaming match.
Much of the shouting yesterday revolved around whether or not Smith’s legal team had tried to bribe a lawyer by offering him a future judgeship. If true, in return, the lawyer was to pressure Walt Nauta, a former employee at Mar-a-Lago, into cooperating with Smith’s legal team. In other words, it was an obvious example of witness tampering.
The prosecutor slammed his fist on the lectern, yelling that the claim was a “fantasy” and that the defendant had made a “garbage argument.” Eventually, the judge was forced to tell the prosecutor to “calm down.”
And to top it off, the judge expressed concern that everyday citizens on a jury will be unable to understand the nuances and legal arguments of the case. She told the prosecutor that “real people have to decide these issues.”
With outbursts like yesterday and the admission that the case might be too complicated for a jury to understand, it’s hard to determine when the trial will resume. More than likely, it will be late summer – or it could even be after the 2024 presidential election. We will keep you updated.
