TL;DR Summary

Federal prosecutors, led by special counsel Jack Smith, have ordered transcripts from the recent disbarment trial of attorney John Eastman, who played a key role in former President Donald Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 election results. Eastman is one of six alleged co-conspirators in a federal indictment against Trump, but he has not been charged in that case. The transcript order suggests that prosecutors are still keeping tabs on Eastman, and it remains unclear whether Smith's team is considering charges against him for his alleged role in the conspiracy. The transcripts could potentially be used as evidence in Trump's trial, scheduled to begin in March.
