There are two important, new filings on the DC docket in the Trump coup case today. First is Judge Chutkan's denial of most of Trump's requests for discovery - because most don't exist or aren't material to his case - and her total shutdown of Donald's assertion that the scope of the prosecution team includes nine other federal agencies. Second is Jack Smith's response to Trump's motion to dismiss the entire DC case based on the Supreme Court's narrowing of 18 USC § 1512(c)(2) in the Fischer case. Its very long, very detailed and worth reading the whole thing. === HOUSEKEEPING NOTE: I have book club tonight, so will be ducking out about 5:30 PDT. Play nicely amongst yourselves while I'm gone.
