"Legal Analyst Warns of Threats to Trump Case Witnesses as Judge Considers Protective Order"

Judge Cannon has ruled that the public interest outweighs the protective order in the Trump case, prompting backlash from Special Counsel Jack Smith who argues that unsealing the names of witnesses could deter cooperation and pose safety risks. Critics accuse Cannon of bias for Trump and predict that her ruling will likely be overturned on appeal, citing a lack of legal basis to unseal the witness list and potential danger to witnesses. The 11th Circuit previously reversed Cannon's decision in this case, and experts believe it may do so again.

Mike Pence added as witness in Georgia prosecutors' case against Trump for election subversion

Former Vice President Mike Pence has been listed as a potential witness in the Georgia election subversion case against former President Donald Trump. The witness list, which remains under seal, includes over 150 names. Pence's inclusion suggests that the Fulton County district attorney's office is preparing to call him to testify. Pence, who strongly rebuked Trump's claims of widespread voter fraud, has already expressed a willingness to testify in any federal trial. Four of Trump's co-defendants have already pleaded guilty and agreed to testify in the case. Trump's lead counsel in the Georgia case believes that the district attorney's office may attempt to call Pence as a witness and has requested access to relevant documents and materials.
