Trump sentencing now set for less than 2 months before Election Day nbcnews.com/politics/donal…
www.nbcnews.com Judge in Trump's hush money trial delays sentencing following Supreme Court immunity ruling The hearing, previously scheduled for July 11, will be delayed until at least Sept. 18. Breaking - Trump sentencing postponed, not happening July 11th, judge now set for September 18th, at the earliest.
The special counsel’s office has been pushing to get this case in DC to trial for months and now that prosecutors *finally* have a decision from scotus we see no movement to expedite the judgment, which gets the case back in Chutkan’s hands. Worth asking why.
The safest thing to say about the SCOTUS decision is that it complicates the Jan 6 Trump case and insures the trial can’t be held before the election. Does it totally derail the case? That remains to be seen. It depends on how the courts ultimately draw lines on official versus private acts.View quoted post on X
So grateful to work with @PeterAlexander! The range on this dude… from presidents to wildlife! Congrats on 20 years 👊🏽
Hard to believe it’s true, but today marks 20 years for me @NBCNews. It has been an exhilarating and exhausting ride and I could not be more grateful for all of the unique experiences I’ve had and all the incredible colleagues I’ve been able to learn from and work alongside. From Baghdad to Bande Aceh, Beijing to the Briefing Room, I never imagined I’d get to witness history quite like this. I owe a lot of people thanks, but none more than Alison and our girls who have supported me in this unforgettable journey. Here’s to many more.View quoted post on X
