President Trump will have his first of many days in court on Tuesday in the Mar-a-Lago documents case.
He’s assembling a legal team which, some suppose, may end up including attorneys with subject matter expertise in the Espionage Act, national security law, and criminal prosecutions involving classified materials.
Meanwhile, the man himself and those around him are upping the pressure. Trump used his favorite line on accountability for his wrongdoing in a speech over the weekend, telling his followers that he was “in the way” because federal prosecutors trying to retrieve documents about the U.S. nuclear program from the Mar-a-Lago bathroom were, in fact, “after you.”
The case is, as of this writing, before U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon for the Southern District of Florida, who distinguished herself last year in a related civl suit that Trump filed by ruling in his favor whenever possible. There’s a lot of speculation over whether Cannon may recuse, if DOJ will push for her recusal or if, perhaps, she’s seen the light.
We’ll be following developments today below.
