Trump's Power Struggle with Special Counsel and the Supreme Court
TL;DR Summary
Former President Donald Trump's legal team is objecting to the special counsel's office providing evidence for his federal criminal trial, citing a burden on Trump and threatening to seek a court order to halt pre-trial efforts. The special counsel is pushing forward with the trial, while Trump's team seeks to delay it. The trial date is still set for March, pending the Supreme Court's determination on questions of presidential immunity from criminal charges. The case is currently on hold at the trial-court level.
