In a significant development in former President Donald Trump's classified documents case related to the Mar-a-Lago docs, U.S. District Court Judge Aileen Cannon has made rulings favorable to special counsel Jack Smith. Judge Cannon has allowed Smith to substitute key pieces of sensitive intelligence from materials shared with Trump and his legal team, posting an unclassified version of her order. Additionally, she has granted some of the special counsel's requests to withhold classified discovery from Trump, while reserving judgment on other requests related to Trump's demand for more discovery. This decision, described as largely siding with the special counsel, has prompted reactions, including an ex-Trump White House lawyer labeling the judge 'Unhinged'.
