Judge postpones Trump’s March trial on 2020 election plot
A federal judge has formally postponed Donald Trump’s March trial on charges of plotting to overturn the 2020 election. U-S District Judge Tanya Chutkan vacated the March 4 trial date as she waits for Trump’s appeal to work its way through the courts. She did not immediately set a new date. A federal appeals court is currently reviewing the former president’s argument that he’s immune from prosecution for actions he took in the White House.
