US Judge Sets Trial Date For Federal Case Against Trump Over Plot To Overturn 2020 Election

ABP News  

A federal judge in Washington's federal case accusing the former president of attempting to change the results of the 2020 election set a trial date for Donald Trump for March 4, 2024, news agency Associated Press reported. The ruling by U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan dismissed a defence plea to postpone the trial until April 2026, roughly a year and a half after the 2024 election, but it also pushes it back from the January date requested by special counsel Jack Smith's team. Prosecutors in Manhattan have charged him with falsifying business records in connection with a hush money payment to a porn actress who claims she had an extramarital affair with Trump, while prosecutors in Fulton County, Georgia, have charged Trump and 18 others in a racketeering conspiracy aimed at undermining the state's 2020 election. Trump, the early front-runner for the Republican presidential nomination in 2024, surrendered in that case on Thursday, posing for the first mug photo of a former president in American history.
