Trump likens DOJ’s Jan. 6 filing to pre-election special counsel report

msn.com



Lawyers for Donald Trump on Monday opposed prosecutors’ request to file an up-to-180-page legal brief this week explaining why the former president’s efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 election should not be immune from criminal prosecution, claiming that such a filing would be tantamount to releasing a special counsel report six weeks before the 2024 election.

Prosecutors asked U.S. District Judge Tanya S. Chutkan on Saturday for permission to file the unusually long legal motion, arguing that the Supreme Court in a July ruling on presidential immunity required her as Trump’s trial judge to decide what allegations and evidence against him could be admissible. The filing is a key part of the criminal case alleging Trump illegally attempted to overturn Joe Biden’s electoral victory, and it was expected to reveal new details of the evidence investigators had gathered.

But prosecutors spelled out a plan where the filing could be kept from public view, at least initially, undercutting the Trump legal team’s contention that it would be akin to an election upending special counsel report. They proposed that the filing — which would include up to 90 pages of previously disclosed evidence and newly alleged facts, as well as another 30 pages of footnotes — could be made under seal, and a public version with redactions could be released only later with Chutkan’s approval.
