Trump's Florida Trial
In Florida, Defense attorneys representing former President Donald Trump's co-defendant argued in court for dismissal of charges related to moving classified documents to Mar-a-Lago and conspiring to hide them from investigators. Trump's aide, Walt Nauta, faced allegations of moving boxes containing classified documents and then lying about it. The defense claimed the case was politically motivated and retaliatory after Nauta refused to cooperate. Judge Cannon, a Trump appointee, heard the motions and expressed skepticism, indicating potential challenges for the defense.
