Vocal Trump critic announces he is stepping down at the end of his term; Trump waives right to speedy trial in Georgia election subversion case

Former Trump White House chief Mark Meadows’s request for an emergency stay of the order sending his criminal case back to Fulton county superior court, while he appeals to the 11th circuit, has been denied by a federal judge.

The federal judge overseeing Donald Trump’s classified documents case issued a protective order pertaining to classified evidence in the case, according a court filing.

If there is any question whether information is classified, the defense must handle that information as though it is classified unless counsel for the government or the CISO confirms that it is not classified.
