"Judge Denies Trump's Attempt to Dismiss Georgia Election Subversion Case on Free Speech Grounds"

A judge in Georgia rejected former President Donald Trump's attempt to dismiss a criminal indictment related to his efforts to overturn the 2020 election on free speech grounds, ruling that the alleged speech and conduct were not protected political speech. The judge's decision allows the state racketeering case against Trump to move forward, although a trial date has not been set. Trump's lawyer expressed disagreement with the ruling and indicated that they will explore their options, while the Fulton County district attorney's office declined to comment.
