Special counsel Jack Smith has proposed taking the case to trial early next year, while Trump's lawyers argued that it should be held in spring of 2026.

The federal judge presiding over Donald Trump’s criminal election interference case shut down a bid by the former president to set his trial more than two-and-a-half years away.

“This case is not going to trial in 2026,” Judge Tanya Chutkan said in a hearing Monday morning in U.S. District Court in Washington, D.C., NBC News reported.

But the judge also said that she would reject a proposal by federal prosecutors to bring the case to trial in less than five months.

    As much freedom as you can afford.

    Law applied unequally means those in privilege will flaunt it and those still wanting, correctly, have no respect for it.

    Fuck the law. Fuck the judges. Fuck the lawyers. Fuck the police. Might equals right in America. The winners will, and currently are, rewriting the histories to absolve them and their ancestors any wrongdoing.

    Stop acting like there’s some kind of decorum to uphold. If only one side is upholding it, news flash, it doesn’t exist. You’re just allowing yourself to be outmaneuvered. While any of y’all are up there on the high road, look down and witness the cruelty you arent protecting against. Keep clutching them pearls, cuz every minute more of us are being murdered by those sworn to protect and serve, or medicines that demand the culmination of your entire life’s work. The law ≠ morality. This immoral, institutionalized, embodiment of corruption we’re in can be summed up with this fact. Footage of whatever crime you are accused of, from police cams, citizens dash cams, private business security cams, the state will leverage it’s power to use against you - but that power will actively be used against you if it exonerates you

    So what I’m saying, is if your toes are dipped into the criminal courts, there is absolutely zero incentive to not go full cartel. Just wear a suit, sponsor a little league team, donate to both parties, the mayor and the police union and remember to let your obstacles well enough for an open casket, have some class after all, and you’ll never see the inside of a cell.

    Under a government that imprisons any unjustly, the true place for a just man is also a prison - Thoreau
