The federal judge overseeing former President Donald J. Trump’s prosecution on charges of plotting to overturn the 2020 election issued an order on Friday scrapping the March 4 trial date for the case.
The order by Judge Tanya S. Chutkan was a formal confirmation of what had seemed fairly obvious for weeks. It came after she had made a series of veiled hints that she was going to delay the trial as Mr. Trump pursues an effort to have the underlying charges tossed out with an argument that he enjoys complete immunity from prosecution.
In her order, Judge Chutkan said that she would set a new date for the proceeding in Federal District Court in Washington “if and when” Mr. Trump’s immunity claims are resolved.
That’s what we thought about genocide in the Middle East too though
I don’t think anybody familiar with US-Israeli relations thought that he wouldn’t support Israel in all circumstances.
Agreed, but this is a large escalation
It is, and a troubling one. Not unexpected (US foreign policy relies heavily on projection of force), but troubling and disappointing all the same.
What genocide? Are you lucid? If not wake up.
In my day trolls actually had skill and subtlety.
It’s okay, you’re doing fine, I think most of us realize that you’re a troll without the hinting. There are probably some who took your hyperbole as a sincere statement but the rest of us don’t think you’re that uninformed.
You know, that whole war thing going on where the Israeli government is commiting genocide against the Palestinians while the Palestinian government vocally expresses its desire to commit genocide against the Israelis? That one.
