"Judge Imposes Restrictions on Trump's Discussion of Classified Info in Mar-a-Lago Documents Case"

A federal judge has issued an order setting limits on former President Donald Trump's discussions of classified information with his defense lawyers in the criminal case where he is charged with retaining classified documents after leaving the White House. The judge's order endorsed limitations sought by prosecutors, but did not explicitly address Trump's request to create a Sensitive Compartmented Information Facility (SCIF) at his Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach, Florida. The order implied that only a SCIF operated by the U.S. government would be used, but did not rule out the possibility of one being created at Mar-a-Lago in the future.
