TL;DR Summary

U.S. District Court Judge Aileen Cannon denied former President Trump's motion to dismiss charges of retaining classified documents on the grounds of "unconstitutional vagueness," while the ruling on another motion based on the Presidential Records Act is pending. Trump's defense argues that the PRA gives the president authority to retain documents, but the judge indicated that these arguments may have force at trial but not for dismissal. The prosecution contends that the seized documents were presidential, not personal, and emphasizes the independence of Special Counsel Smith's team from the Biden Administration.
