Judge approves releasing source documents with more Trump-Jan. 6 evidence\u00a9\u00a0John Minchillo\/AP<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A federal judge on Thursday approved the public release of redacted source documents that helped inform special counsel Jack Smith\u2019s\u00a0explosive 165-page legal brief<\/a>\u00a0arguing that\u00a0Donald Trump<\/a>\u00a0can\u00a0still face prosecution<\/a>\u00a0for trying to subvert the results of the 2020 election, but gave the former president seven days to take steps to block the disclosure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a two-page order, U.S. District Judge Tanya S. Chutkan ordered the release a four-part appendix \u2014 with potentially significant redactions \u2014 listing the sources of quotes and information to support last week\u2019s filing, which was meant to detail how the case could go forward after the Supreme Court ruled this summer that Trump enjoyed broad immunity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That ruling forced prosecutors to return a slimmed-down indictment alleging Trump conspired to overturn the legitimate results of the 2020 election by using knowingly false claims about election fraud to obstruct the government\u2019s processes for collecting, counting and certifying the vote. The justices left to Chutkan to sort out how to move forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trump lawyers John Lauro and Todd Blanche had earlier asked the judge to keep the appendix hidden from public view, writing in a short filing, \u201cThere should be no further disclosures at this time of the so-called \u2018evidence\u2019 that the special counsel\u2019s Office has unlawfully cherry-picked and mischaracterized \u2014 during early voting in the 2024 Presidential election \u2014 in connection with an improper Presidential immunity filing that has no basis in criminal procedure or judicial precedent.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prosecutors said the appendix could include information and quotations from public material \u2014 such as congressional Jan. 6 witness transcripts \u2014 but that information from nonpublic sources such as grand jury transcripts, witness interview reports and sealed search warrant returns would remain redacted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In her order, Chutkan asserted that Trump\u2019s lawyers identified \u201cno specific substantive objections to particular proposed redactions,\u201d as she said they had failed to do in unsuccessfully opposing the release of last week\u2019s broader filing. For the same reasons, the judge said she found his defense\u2019s \u201cblanket objections to further unsealing are without merit,\u201d and that its concern with the political consequences on his 2024 Republican presidential campaign \u201cis not a cognizable legal prejudice.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Still, Chutkan gave Trump\u2019s lawyers a week to \u201cevaluate litigation options.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chutkan previously gave Trump permission to file an up-to-180-page immunity argument of his own by Nov. 7, with further litigation to continue into December. No trial date has been set as the case is likely to make its way back to the Supreme Court. If Trump wins the election, he is widely expected to order the Justice Department to end the case.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the filing last week, prosecutors painted a scathing portrait of Trump\u2019s actions after his 2020 election loss to President Joe Biden, presenting scores of witnesses and a handful of co-conspirators with whom it alleged Trump \u201claunched a series of increasingly desperate plans to overturn the legitimate election results in seven states that he had lost.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prosecutors maintained that Trump operated in his private capacity as a candidate, not in his official capacity as president, which the high court ruled would be immune from criminal prosecution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
