His [Trump’s] legal team’s submission states that, between the classified information on foreign interference and biased intelligence reports, “this evidence will undercut central theories of the prosecution and establish that President Trump acted at all times in good faith and on the belief that he was doing what he had been elected to do.”
The submission notes that Smith has argued in legal submissions earlier in October that “the classified discovery issues” in this case are “limited,” “tangential,” “narrow” and “incidental” because “the charges … do not rely on classified materials.”
In his submissions, Smith references the 2020 Russian case several times as an example of why the U.S. government must be guarded in handing over classified documents to defense lawyers.
I’m pretty sure that Trump’s and his henchmen’s have an attorney that has clearance.
They should be able to show the documents to that attorney without much risk.
I realize that Judge Cannon is going to decide that the government must either give up the lives of US spys or set Trump free because she is a fucking traitor.
But there are other options.
