TL;DR Summary

Special counsel Jack Smith cited case law to remind Judge Aileen Cannon why she should rule against Donald Trump in the Mar-a-Lago classified documents case, as Trump's legal team continues to delay the trial. Smith's filing pointed to a case from Cannon's past to underscore Trump's claim of "selective prosecution." Smith's team accused Cannon of making a "clear error" by granting Trump's motion to unredact portions of their motions in discovery, exposing potential witnesses to threats. Former prosecutors suggest that Cannon may face a recusal by the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals due to her rulings and potential conflicts of interest.
