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.

...more
Putin is more than evil enough ...
You may recall that there was Russian involvement in fabricating the fake "Steele Dossier" ...
"Russia Collusion" isn't the lie. The lie is that Trump was colluding with the neo-Soviets in Moscow. Hillary Clinton, OTOH ...
First time I’ve heard that, I’d like to see the legal citation for it.
I’m willing to bet the courts will find a way to prevent this from happening.

A HUGE one is Italy and the Vatican. Leads to the Leonardi Satellites.
Recall the Dec 2020 Vatican blackout, and the cleared airspace of the entire US Southeast.
“Pretty sure that Israel was not a nation which wanted Trump gone. “
At the time Trump was cheated, Israel was under a different ruler.
Only if it’s released to those with no clearances. However, the judges and lawyers will have those clearances. All that needs to be given to the juries is the jest of the proof. I.e. a redacted version protecting sources and methods.

thanx for adding those important details, C210N
Well it’s not like these bastards didn’t know what they did....and I have to wonder if the media will report the truth even though it’s staring them in the face. The people in power don’t care about the truth - they only care about getting away with what they want.
He can if he declassified them when he WAS still president (and some would argue that he still is president, given that he "lost" in a fraudulent farce of an "election").
The U.K. Plus russia are my bets
Remember where the “steel dossier” came from. Mi6…
Even though he's pretty tough, this multi-pronged persecution has got to be taking a toll on him. He is 77 years old. He seems to be in good shape, but this level of stress would be very hard on people decades younger than him.
I feel so bad for him and wish there was some way I could help, but there isn't anything we average people can do other than continue to support him as best we can. :(
Definite DoJ and fib. Worst actors ever.
Great news, they will have to pull very shady maneuvers to deny this relevant evidence...I would not say we got them yet, but we are on the offensive!
oops.
where’d everybody go?
Either this was leaked or Trump is presenting this to get them to drop the case because it’s been his philosophy to never tell your enemy what you’re going to do. Interesting times.
It is Trump’s information, period. Why should election fraud info be held from Americans?
Should call Biden as a witness to the extensive fraud in 2020. But Jill Biden will claim he is mentally incompetent (which we have know for a long time!).
