The 180 pg brief, part of the legal debate surrounding #Trump’s #immunity claims, will contain a detailed factual proffer, along w/ numerous exhibits related to Trump’s alleged conduct. This #evidence is intended to assist the court in conducting a fact-specific analysis, a directive handed down by #SCOTUS after remanding the case for further proceedings to determine which of Trump’s acts were unofficial & not covered by their broad interpretation of presidential immunity.
Judge #Chutkan, in her ruling, emphasized that #Trump’s political concerns over the timing of the #evidence release had no bearing on the court’s decision. She noted that the judicial process must proceed without regard to the #election calendar, stating, “what needs to happen before or shouldn’t happen before the election is not relevant here.”
Chutkan's order also denied Trump’s repeated requests to #delay the pretrial schedule, ensuring that the case will continue to move forward.
#Chutkan’s decision gives the government an opportunity to lay out new #evidence against #Trump, though how much, if at all, they will choose to reveal in the run-up to the #election remains to be seen.
In court, Trump defense attorney #JohnLauro had sparred w/Chutkan over the schedule, arguing that the next 2 months is a “very sensitive time” before Republican nominee Trump faces the Democratic nominee, MVP #KamalaHarris, at the polls.

He further suggested they [#Biden & #Harris] played a role in undermining his #security: “They were making it very difficult to have proper staffing in terms of Secret Service.” [←bald-faced #lie]
“I’m not saying they wanted you to get shot,” Dr. Phil said, “but do you think it was OK w/them if you did?”
“I don’t know,” #Trump replied. “There’s a
lot of hatred.” (Biden, Harris, & other Democratic leaders condemned the shooting in the aftermath & Biden phoned Trump to offer prayers & support…)
The deceased 20-yr-old gunman was a registered #Republican voter, as noted throughout national media coverage…, there appears to be NO solid #evidence that he was driven by partisanship or ideology. A sweeping #FBI investigation, including analysis of his digital devices & interviews w/ >450 people, has found no clear motive, acc/to congressional testimony from FBI Dir Christopher Wray.

NO ONE has furnished ANY #evidence to support that claim. And while #Trump himself was relatively quiet in this regard during the initial aftermath, he has since been POURING FUEL on the fire, starting w/a campaign speech on Aug 5 in Atlanta, where #JDVance introduced him by emphasizing that Trump’s opponents had “even tried to kill him.”
