Special counsel can present ‘substantial’ new evidence against Trump in January 6 case, judge rules | CNN Politics

Special counsel Jack Smith this week will be allowed to file hundreds of pages of legal arguments and evidence gathered in the 2020 election subversion and January 6 US Capitol attack criminal case against former President Donald Trump, a federal judge ruled Tuesday.

"The brief due Thursday (9/26) – which is expected to exceed 200 pages, including exhibits, and is meant to convince courts Trump should be prosecuted for alleged obstruction and conspiracy criminal activity — is a rare avenue for evidence to be aired in court before a trial.

Chutkan of the DC District Court, in a six-page opinion, said she would allow such an outsized briefing because the Supreme Court, in its recent decision to give Trump’s actions while president immunity from prosecution, has directed her as the trial judge to look closely at facts in the case to decide if some allegations could move forward to trial."

    I’m guessing https://www.nytimes.com/2024/09/14/business/donald-trump-apprentice.html

    and overall I agree.

    I’ve never watched The Apprentice. Not because I’m “too cool” for it or anything. I remember watching the first season of two of Survivor. It was a fun enough show, but eventually I just got bored of it. I know I’m somewhat in the minority as reality TV really took off. Tons of reality TV exists today for a wide variety of shows and there are tons of success.

    However I look at many of the folks (older adults) who are Trump supporters now and I’m confident they got their start watching him on The Apprentice.
