Donald Trump CHARGES ahead going after EVERYONE and EVERTHING against him in the Jan. 6 Federal case….
Anyone know a idiot charged criminally going after the judge?
“Security for the federal judge assigned to oversee the criminal case against former President Donald Trump over his attempts to overturn the 2020 election has been increased in the federal courthouse in Washington, DC,” CNN reports.
“CNN has observed more security detailed to Judge Tanya Chutkan, and deputy US Marshals discussed security plans for the judge on Monday.”

Trump goes after the judge on-line…..
Now, in the days after his indictment over efforts to subvert the 2020 election results, Trump is directing his anger at a new target: U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan, who is overseeing that case.
“There is no way I can get a fair trial with the judge ‘assigned’ to the ridiculous freedom of speech/fair elections case,” Trump wrote in all caps in a Truth Social post Sunday. “Everybody knows this, and so does she!”
Chutkan was randomly assigned to Trump’s case after he was indicted last week on four charges. An Obama appointee, Chutkan has given out tough sentences to Jan. 6 defendants, either matching or exceeding the sentences for which prosecutors asked.
She also previously denied a Trump lawsuit seeking to block the National Archives from turning over documents to the House Jan. 6 committee, writing that “Presidents are not kings, and Plaintiff is not President.”
Her role in Trump’s Washington, D.C., case has placed her squarely in the former president’s line of fire. Trump has said on Truth Social that his counsel plans to move to recuse Chutkan from the case, calling her “the Judge of [special counsel Jack Smith’s] ‘dreams.’” ….

Trump has taken aim at the judge overseeing the civil case involving the writer E. Jean Carroll, deriding him as a “Clinton-appointed judge.” He also previously posted multiple times about Judge Juan Merchan, who is handling the former president’s hush money case in Manhattan, referring to him as a “Trump Hating Judge” and claiming Merchan “HATES ME.” …

But sometimes Trump’s online attacks have escalated to real-life violence. Merchan and his family received death threats after Trump criticized him, and a bomb threat interrupted the start of proceedings in a $250 million civil litigation brought by New York’s attorney general against the Trump Organization and Trump family, as The Hill previously reported. …

A defendant provoking violence could be ordered remanded by a judge ahead of trial, Green said.
“If a defendant is obstructing justice, destroying evidence, intimidating witnesses, provoking violence against witnesses — that defendant can land in jail prior to the trial,” he said…..

Trump dissing Pence……
“Trump will turn on anyone. Loyalty is a one way street for him. Pence put his fidelity to the Constitution over Trump. I hope he won’t agree to support him again,” Alyssa Farah, who served as a press aide to both Pence and Trump in the White House, posted on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter.
Pence, however, dodged questions over the weekend about whether would support Trump should he be the 2024 nominee — leaving that door seemingly open.
Trump has attacked Pence repeatedly on social media since pleading not guilty last Thursday to the charges levied by the federal government in the case….

Trump countering the Feds request that he and lawyers STFU on evidence in his Jan. 6 case….
He is seeking to try the case in the public vs a Court Room that he has little contro; over….
Donald Trump’s legal team turned to the First Amendment in combating a Justice Department (DOJ) request to limit what evidence he can share and discuss with the public, parroting the former president’s claims the protective order takes aim at his candidacy.
Monday’s filing echoes one of Trump’s defenses to the broader Jan. 6 case, arguing he should only be limited from sharing “sensitive” evidence in the case with the public, while pushing for “volunteer attorneys” to have access to the full range of discovery in the case.
The Justice Department attacked the proposal in their own filing hours later, dismissing Trump’s effort as a way to try the case in the media by selectively releasing evidence, including information from confidential witnesses that may ultimately not be used at trial.
The protective order, a routine request from prosecutors, structures how to handle evidence in the case, and was initially requested by DOJ on Friday just hours after Trump made an incendiary comment on social media……
