Former President Donald Trump’s defense team filed a new motion on Thursday indicating that the former president will present classified information exposing foreign interference in both the 2016 and 2020 U.S. Presidential elections. This move comes amidst a contentious legal battle by Judge Tanya Chutkan and led by Special Counsel Jack Smith.
In August, Trump was hit with four counts in Jack Smith’s sham January 6 case up in DC: Conspiracy to defraud the United States, conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding, obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding, and conspiracy against rights.
“From on or about November 14, 2020, through on or about January 20, 2021, in the District of Columbia and elsewhere, the Defendant, DONALD J. TRUMP, did knowingly combine, conspire, confederate, and agree with co-conspirators, known and unknown to the Grand Jury, to injure, oppress, threaten, and intimidate one or more persons in the free exercise and enjoyment of a right and privilege secured to them by the Constitution and laws of the United States —that is, the right to vote, and to have one’s vote counted,” according to the indictment.
According to the motion submitted on Thursday by Trump’s counsel, led by attorneys John F. Lauro and Todd Blanche, Trum plans to introduce classified evidence during the trial. This evidence is said to disclose activities of foreign influence that affected both the 2016 and 2020 U.S. Presidential elections, thereby substantiating his efforts to overturn the election results.
The court document read:
The Indictment in this case adopts classified assessments by the Intelligence Community and others that minimized, and at times ignored, efforts by foreign actors to influence and interfere with the 2020 election.
President Trump will offer classified information at trial relating to foreign influence activities that impacted the 2016 and 2020 elections, as well as efforts by his administration to combat those activities.
President Trump will also present classified information relating to the biased and politicized nature of the intelligence assessments that he and others rejected during the events in question.
Collectively, this evidence will undercut central theories of the prosecution and establish that President Trump acted at all times in good faith and on the belief that he was doing what he had been elected to do.

Was it Russia?
here it comes.
buckle up
They won’t like it. At all.
Given what we know about FBI corruption on behalf of Biden, Democrats may have opened up a can of worms regarding their own misdeeds.
Trump called out China in the 2020 campaign, probably wasn’t just them. Could easily be anyone from Russia to Israel. Many international interests had a lot to lose if Trump was reelected.
Good. It’s ridiculous that it takes something like this to finally get evidence heard in court.
I think we are up to 90-something election lawsuits that were never heard on merits.

How do you introduce evidence legally?
Did ‘Impeachment’ provide a platform to discuss findings of Ukraine?
How do you introduce evidence legally?
Did ‘Impeachment’ harm or help POTUS [public]?
How do you introduce [D]s high crimes [corruption] to the public?
Excellent! I was afraid Judas Pence deleted the Massive Evidence of the Steal of 2016 (Popular Vote) when he ran the Fraud Commission - sounds like President Trump has the backups!
Then they’ll indict Trump for this ,LOL
And then they’ll indict him again for having that classified information and not turning it over to the National Archives, probably.
Joe Biden brags about having “the most extensive and inclusive VOTER FRAUD organization” in history.
Boom?
i figured all along that trump would take advantage of these trials to present damning information that the deep state has been covering up ...
>here it comes.
>buckle up
Probably all the Chinese funding of ActBlue, but if something else shows up, woohoooo it’s going to be a doozy.
The Feddies should not be allowed to negotiate a deal to stay out of jail. We don’t want no Flippin’ Feddies.
