Episode notes

This week in Florida, Judge Aileen Cannon stays the trial calendar pending Trump’s motion for a delay due to CIPA section 4, and new reporting that Trump shared nuclear submarine capabilities with an Australian businessman.

In DC, Donald files a motion to dismiss all charges based on absolute presidential immunity; an opposition to DOJ CIPA motions; Jack Smith files a motion in support of his original motion for a pre-trial don’t-call-it-a-gag order based on Trump’s posts about Mark Milley and an unrelated possible firearm purchase.

SCOTUS declines to hear Eastman’s attempt to block access to his emails; plus a listener question.
