BREAKING: Federal judge just paused Trump’s J6 trial…

Donald Trump finally caught a break. The federal judge in charge of his J6 trial just delayed it because of the issues playing out in appeals.

Here’s the news from CNN:

The federal judge overseeing Donald Trump’s 2020 election interference case has temporarily paused all procedural deadlines while appeals over a major issue play out – which could lead to his March 2024 trial date being pushed back.

The order from Judge Tanya Chutkan acknowledged that she no longer has jurisdiction over aspects of the criminal case while the DC Circuit Court of Appeals considers whether Trump is immune and can be tried. In a bid to speed that appeals process, special counsel Jack Smith has asked the Supreme Court to step in.

Chutkan said in her order that the trial date of March 4, 2024, could be affected, and that she would reconsider that date when the appeals process has concluded.

Chutkan, however, said that the pause does not bar her from enforcing measures she has already imposed to “safeguard the integrity of these proceedings,” including the limited gag order against Trump and his conditions of release.

This obviously has to do with the immunity appeal that the Supreme Court agreed to take up. I don’t know how quickly SCOTUS intends to rule on this but they aren’t known for moving super quick unless it’s an emergency. And this clearly is not.
