"DOJ Presents Damning Cell Phone Data Linking Trump to Jan. 6 Riot at Trial"

The Department of Justice (DOJ) has obtained and reviewed data from former President Donald Trump's White House cell phone, which will be presented as evidence in his upcoming criminal trial. The DOJ's tech expert analyzed the phone's images and web history, specifically identifying the periods when Trump's phone was unlocked and the Twitter application was open on January 6, the day of the Capitol riot. The data could shed light on Trump's post-election activities and his use of Twitter to communicate with supporters. The DOJ's indictment cites several tweets sent by Trump during the riot, including attacks on former Vice President Mike Pence. The trial is scheduled for next spring, and Trump has also sought immunity from criminal prosecution, a request that the Supreme Court is considering.
