Legal Experts Critique Aileen Cannon's Handling of Donald Trump Case

Judge Aileen Cannon, overseeing Donald Trump's classified-documents trial, has been criticized for requesting competing scenarios from both sides regarding the interpretation of the Presidential Records Act to be given to the jury before deliberations. Legal experts have condemned this request, with some calling it "legally insane." Trump is seeking to dismiss the federal case, claiming the PRA allowed him to determine the sensitive materials he took from the White House as his personal property. The trial is scheduled for May 20, but Cannon is expected to postpone the start of proceedings in a future decision.

"Leaked Testimony Reveals Shocking Revelations in Trump's Georgia RICO Case"

Testimony from four co-defendants in the Georgia election interference case, including Jenna Ellis and Sidney Powell, leaked to the media, leading to accusations of witness intimidation. In Trump's New York civil fraud trial, his lawyers began presenting their defense, with Don Jr. testifying about the family's real estate empire. Trump's attorneys filed a mistrial motion alleging bias by the judge and his law clerk, but it was denied. The request to postpone the classified documents trial was also denied, but the date may be pushed back later.
