Trump's Lawyers Look to Push Election Interference Trial Back to 2026

Trump's Lawyers, Look to Push Election Interference , Trial Back to 2026.

Politico reports that Donald Trump's legal team has filed court papers requesting a 2.5-year delay before choosing a jury, citing the extraordinary circumstances of the case.

.

Among those circumstances is over 11.5 million pages of evidence that prosecutors turned over earlier in August.

Trump lawyers John Lauro and Todd Blanche's request for an April 2026 trial date sharply contrasts prosecutors' ambitious call for the trial to start in January of 2024.

.

The defense's request gives U.S. District Court Judge Tanya Chutkan, who said she will set a trial date by August 28, a critical choice to make.

Trump's legal team also noted the unprecedented nature of the former president being prosecuted by a Justice Department led by his political rivals.

In this District, ordinary order when faced with such overwhelming discovery is to set a reasonable trial schedule, commensurate with the size and scope of discovery and complexity of the legal issues, John Lauro and Todd Blanche, Donald Trump's legal team, via Politico.

The government rejects this sensible approach.

Instead, it seeks a trial calendar more rapid than most no-document misdemeanors, requesting just four months from the beginning of discovery to jury selection, John Lauro and Todd Blanche, Donald Trump's legal team, via Politico.

However, there is a possibility that Trump could be back in the White House by the suggested start date.

This means that Trump could appoint an attorney general who could dismiss the charges, or he could issue himself a presidential pardon.

Trump has been charged by special counsel Jack Smith with three conspiracies to overturn the results of the 2020 election.

Julian Assange Reaches Plea Deal With US Government

Julian Assange , Reaches Plea Deal With , US Government. 'The Independent' reports that Wikileaks founder Julian Assange has been released from Belmarsh prison as part of a plea deal with the United States Justice Department. Assange will be flown out of the U.K. as part of the deal before he makes a guilty plea deal that could end the years-long legal battle. On June 24, Assange boarded a flight at Stansted airport ahead of a scheduled appearance later this week in the Mariana Islands, a Western Pacific U.S. commonwealth. The U.S. government has charged the Wikileaks founder with conspiracy to obtain and disclose national defense secrets. The charges stem from one of the largest leaks of classified information in U.S. history, disclosing tens of thousands of reports regarding the war in Afghanistan. The disclosure, which occurred between 2009 and 2011, included unfiltered diplomatic cables that potentially endangered the safety of confidential sources. . The leak also included significant activity reports related to the war in Iraq and information regarding Guantanamo Bay. According to the latest DOJ filing, Assange is expected to plead guilty and be sentenced to 62 months of time already served, thus avoiding U.S. imprisonment. . This is the result of a global campaign that spanned grass-roots organizers, press freedom campaigners, legislators and leaders from across the political spectrum, all the way to the United Nations, Wikileaks statement, via X. After more than five years in a 2x3 metre cell, isolated 23 hours a day, he will soon reunite with his wife Stella Assange, and their children, who have only known their father from behind bars, Wikileaks statement, via X

DOJ Files Lawsuit Against Adobe [Video]

DOJ Files Lawsuit Against Adobe

DOJ Files Lawsuit , Against Adobe. The U.S. Justice Department filed a lawsuit against Adobe on June 17, TechCrunch reports. The DOJ alleges that Adobe is deceptive because it conceals early-termination fees and makes it difficult for customers to cancel subscriptions. Adobe has harmed consumers by enrolling them in its default, most lucrative subscription plan without clearly disclosing important plan terms, DOJ, via lawsuit. The DOJ claims that Adobe pushes subscribers to choose its "annual paid monthly" plan and uses costly early-termination fees as a "powerful retention tool" to trap customers. During enrollment, Adobe hides material terms of its APM plan in fine print and behind option textboxes and hyperlinks, proving disclosures that are designed to go unnoticed and that most consumers never see, DOJ, via lawsuit. Adobe then deters cancellations by employing an onerous and complicated cancellation process, DOJ, via lawsuit. Adobe disagrees with the allegations. Subscription services are convenient, flexible and cost effective to allow users to choose the plan that best fits their needs, timeline and budget, Dana Rao, Adobe’s General Counsel and Chief Trust Officer, via statement. Our priority is to always ensure our customers have a positive experience. , Dana Rao, Adobe’s General Counsel and Chief Trust Officer, via statement. We are transparent with the terms and conditions of our subscription agreements and have a simple cancellation process, Dana Rao, Adobe’s General Counsel and Chief Trust Officer, via statement. The U.S. government maintains that Adobe has violated consumer protection laws and is seeking "injunctive relief, civil penalties, equitable monetary relief, as well as other relief.”

Garland is held in contempt of Congress for refusing to provide interview tapes with President Biden that were recorded during the Justice Department's classified document probe. . Following the contempt vote, Garland said House Republicans have "turned a serious congressional authority into a partisan weapon.". Today’s vote disregards the constitutional separation of powers, the Justice Department’s need to protect its investigations, and the substantial amount of information we have provided to the Committees. , Merrick Garland, via statement. Garland is now the third U.S. attorney general in American history to be held in contempt of Congress, BBC reports. . In an opinion piece published in the 'Washington Post' on June 11, Garland said that "the Justice Department is under attack like never before.".
