Judge Chutkan Releases Key Evidence in Trump's Election Case

Judge Tanya Chutkan denies Trump's request to delay evidence release, citing the need for transparency over political considerations.

  • Judge Tanya Chutkan released nearly 1,900 pages of evidence from Special Counsel Jack Smith's investigation into Trump's alleged election interference.
  • Trump's legal team argued that the release of documents could influence the upcoming presidential election and endanger witnesses.
  • The evidence includes transcripts of Trump's calls and social media posts related to the 2020 election, with some documents heavily redacted.
  • Chutkan emphasized that withholding information for political reasons could itself be seen as election interference.
  • Legal experts suggest that the case against Trump is progressing, with comparisons drawn to the lengthy Watergate proceedings.
