Trump's Lawyers Seek To Freeze The Classified Documents Case

12 weeks ago Donald Trump has asked a federal judge to freeze the classified documents case against him in light of a Supreme Court ruling this week that said former presidents have broad immunity from prosecution. Trump’s lawyers told U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon on Friday that the prosecution should be put on pause until she resolves pending defense motions that assert that Trump is immune from criminal charges in the case and that special counsel Jack Smith was illegally appointed by the Justice Department. The Supreme Court's opinion came in a separate case, charging Trump with plotting to overturn the 2020 presidential election.

President Joe Biden says his disastrous debate performance last week was a “bad episode” and there were “no indications of any serious condition” in a highly anticipated interview with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos. He repeatedly rejected taking an independent medical evaluation. Biden told Stephanopoulos the only way he would consider getting out of the race would be “If the Lord Almighty comes down and tells me that, I might do that.” Said Biden.
Democrat Senator Mark Warner of Virginia is talking to fellow senators about whether to encourage the president to exit the race.
