She likely will. If she's smart, and I think she is, she and her prosecutors would have been preparing behind the scenes for a while now. Still, I don't think it's possible to do much more than an evidentiary hearing before the election.

And, I have to wonder how much Chutkan has left to work with after SCOTUS ruling. I don't think she can use anything Trump or his advisors have said or anything in their private records. The following from the ruling will likely remove much of the evidence Chutkan would have used.

"On remand, the District Court must carefully analyze the indictment’s remaining allegations to determine whether they too involve conduct for which a President must be immune from prosecution. And the parties and the District Court must ensure that sufficient allegations support the indictment’s charges without such conduct. Testimony or private records of the President or his advisers probing such conduct may not be admitted as evidence at trial. Pp. 30–32."

All MOO

I was trying to figure "which" counts will be vacated due to this ruling. Here is the indictment:


Violations:
Count 1: 18 U.S.C. S371 -Conspiracy to defraud the United States
Count 2: 18 U.S.C. S1512(k) -Conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding
Count 3: 18 U.S.C. SS1512(c)(2), 2 -Obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding
Count 4: 18 U.S.C. S241 -Conspiracy against rights


JMO - I think Counts 2 & 3...
 
I guess she will need to decide if all of his very public and ongoing speech about "the election was stolen" amounts to behaviour within the bounds of the (former) presidency.

And if the more-than 60 lawsuits that he lost, challenging the election results, were within the bounds of the (former) presidency.

Because that may show the conspiracy. He didn't file those lawsuits all by himself.

It is really hard to tell. We all know he did conspire. Maybe Jack Smith has more evidence up his sleeve that does not involve his 'advisors'. Like the conversations overheard (and published) by other former WH staff.

imo
What if the charges are dropped against him because undermining a fair election falls under presidential duties (help us all if that happens), but his co-conspirators still face charges and are found guilty. I wouldn't even be surprised at this point if he skates by with these crimes while the people around him fall.

I can't see how undermining a fair election would be a presidential duty. Challenges are fine, when they are done as a legitimate recount of votes. But undermining is a whole other thing. imo

You could be right.

I think all of them are weakened by the ruling, but it will be interesting to see if any survive. Now, with the delay, there's virtually no way for a real trial before November. If Trump loses the election, we could see any surviving charges proceeding. If he wins, he'll get a four-year grace period. JMOO

Agree about undermining, though of course he will claim it wasn't that at all. And while legal challenges are... ...legal, I cannot see how it's an official duty of the president. It's a legal option all candidates have if they think the election was compromised. Nothing to do with whether any candidate happens to already be president. Being re-elected is NOT an official duty! If it's decided otherwise I will lose all respect for whoever decided that. MOO

Of course undermining isn't an official presidential duty. It's the opposite! But what DJT calls "challenging" went beyond legal and legit challenging and went into "undermining." (I assumed my use of the word "undermining" would be understood in that context.)

DC – 2020 Election. Trump has been charged with 4 criminal counts:
• Conspiracy to defraud the United States
• Conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding
• Obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding
• Conspiracy against rights
U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan presiding. Prosecution: Thomas Windom, Molly Gulland Gaston, J.P. Cooney & James Pearce all lead attorneys. Defense attorneys: John F. Lauro, lead attorney, Emil Bove, Fitzah I. Pavalon, Pro Hac Vice, Todd Blanche, Pro Hac Vice & Attorney Will Scharf. U.S. District Court, District of Columbia (Washington, DC) Case #23-cr-00257-TSC-1
Trial was put on HOLD – pending decision of U.S. Supreme Court on 4/25/24 on Trump’s presidential immunity appeal.
Monday, 7/1/24 Update: Decision: "The indictment’s allegations that Trump attempted to pressure the Vice President to take particular acts in connection with his role at the certification proceeding thus involve official conduct & Trump is at least presumptively immune from prosecution for such conduct." "The indictment’s remaining allegations involve Trump’s interactions with persons outside the Executive Branch: state officials, private parties & the general public." These issues must be remanded to the District Court for further inspection. The U.S. Supreme Court sends Trump's immunity case back to a lower court in Washington.
Friday, 8/16/24 Update: Status conference hearing at 10am. Hearing was rescheduled on 9/5/24.
Wednesday, 9/5/24 @ 10am – Status conference hearing.

NEWS: Trump is indicted anew in Washington, D.C. for his effort to subvert the 2020 election, an attempt by Jack Smith to comport his earlier case with the Supreme Court's immunity decision — and reignite his long-stalled case. w/ @joshgerstein

Statement released by Jack Smith's lawyers ....

"Today, a federal grand jury in the District of Columbia returned a superseding indictment, charging the defendant with the same criminal offenses that were charged in the original indictment”

“The superseding indictment, which was presented to a new grand jury that had not previously heard evidence in this case, reflects the Government’s efforts to respect and implement the Supreme Court’s holdings and remand instructions in Trump v United States.”

Just repeating this quote for emphasis as the story will be told that Jack Smith is "after" Trump or the Biden administration is out to get him, and it will be lost in that whining that:

"a federal grand jury in the District of Columbia returned a superseding indictment."

Yes. And not the first federal grand jury to do so. But a second federal grand jury who had not heard any of the evidence before.
