"Trump's Legal Setbacks: Judge Rejects Dismissal Bids in Criminal Cases"
Former President Donald Trump faces setbacks as judges reject his attempts to dismiss criminal cases in Georgia and federal courts, with trials still a possibility. The delay strategy employed by Trump has been successful in prolonging pretrial litigation, and his arguments for presidential immunity are being considered in multiple cases. While a judge declined Trump's request to dismiss the federal classified documents case, she left open the possibility for him to use the argument in his defense at trial. In the Georgia election subversion case, the judge rejected the argument that Trump's alleged efforts were protected under the First Amendment, signaling a step forward for the prosecution.
