Donald Trump will soon receive controversial information from Special Counsel Jack Smith after the judge overseeing the former president’s criminal case over classified documents stashed at Mar-a-Lago, Judge Cannon, ordered the prosecutor to deliver the data.
Earlier on Friday, Cannon paused deadlines in a controversial order that special counsel Jack Smith had condemned as a “clear error” in the ex-president’s classified document case, according to court records and reports. Earlier this week, Cannon ordered Smith to deliver to her by Friday proposals for unredacted FBI interview witness reports that could appear on the public docket.
Smith warned about threats to people involved in the case, causing the earlier pause. But later on Friday, Cannon said the information still must be delivered to Trump and other defendants in the case, including Walt Nauta, according to the court docket.
I had an excellent opportunity to teach my daughter about white privilege the other day. I go buy weed at a legal dispensary in Illinois and bring it back to where I live in Indiana. My daughter asked me if I was scared of getting caught and I explained to her that if you’re white, drive a relatively recent car and drive sensibly, a cop probably isn’t going to pull you over, and all three apply to me. But, I also told her, if you’re black, the other two factors don’t even matter. She was already relatively aware of that idea since she’s 13, but it was a great way to explain it with a real-life example.
