This is a bombshell breaking news alert…
The trial date for the big Classified Documents case brought by Jack Smith against President Trump has just been vacated.
“Indefinitely postponed” is the technical word we have right now, and if you ask me odds are increasing sharply that it never gets rescheduled.

Full text of the relevant portion:
“The Court also determines that finalization of a trial date at this juncture—before resolution of the myriad and interconnected pre-trial and CIPA issues remaining and forthcoming—would be imprudent and inconsistent with the Court’s duty to fully and fairly consider the various pending pre-trial motions before the Court, critical CIPA issues, and additional pretrial and trial preparations necessary to present this case to a jury. The Court therefore vacates the current May 20, 2024, trial date (and associated calendar call), to be reset by separate order following resolution of the matters before the Court, consistent with Defendants’ right to due process and the public’s interest in the fair and efficient administration of justice,”

Meanwhile, many are arguing that not only should the trial date be “Indefinitely Postponed” but the charges should be dropped and Jack Smith himself prosecuted for tampering with evidence and planting documents:

So as it turns out, Jack Smith and his team tampered with evidence
Or to put it another way: Mishandled classified materials
Whatever the left accuses everyone else of doing is exactly what they’re doing themselves!!!
