What You Need to Know
- U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan released an appendix to a special counsel dossier justifying the prosecution of former President Trump in D.C.
- Trump defense attorneys asked Chutkan to keep the documents sealed until after the 2024 presidential election.
- Chutkan ruled the public has a right to access the documents sooner rather than later.
Additional evidence unsealed in former President Donald Trump's election-interference criminal case shows the alleged Jan. 6 plot that would have delivered Trump a second term in the White House, despite having lost the 2020 election.
The alleged conspiracy called for then-Vice President Mike Pence to disregard the votes in seven swing states and order the U.S. House of Representatives to resolve the matter because no candidate would have received the minimum 270 Electoral College votes needed to win the election outright.
