Former President Donald J. Trump took to Truth Social with a series of impassioned posts on Monday, expressing his intent to contest the trial date set for March 4th. He went on to accuse Special Counsel Jack Smith of orchestrating a deliberate campaign to meddle in the 2024 election. Trump's posts, which gained substantial attention, cast doubt on the validity of the indictment against him. He highlighted the heavy reliance of the indictment on findings from the January 6th Committee, a body he derisively referred to as an "Unselect Committee of Marxists, Fascists, and Political Hacks." The former President further claimed that the committee, which he asserts has a track record of dishonesty concerning matters involving Russia and Ukraine, had purposely erased and destroyed all evidence, findings, and proof associated with the January 6th incident. On the same Monday, U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan set the trial date for March 4, 2024, regarding the alleged interference by former President Donald Trump in the 2020 presidential election. This timing situates the trial squarely amidst the GOP presidential primary calendar. Given that the trial coincides with the heart of the primary season, it is anticipated to attract intense political attention from the Republican Party. Notably, the trial's commencement is a mere day before a crucial event in the Republican nomination process: Super Tuesday. In a preceding post, Trump directed criticism at Special Counsel Jack Smith once more, branding him as "Deranged" and accusing him of impropriety for visiting the White House shortly before announcing the indictment against the 45th President. Trump underscored that Smith's investigation, which he termed a "Witch Hunt," has spanned nearly three years. However, Trump viewed the decision to bring it to the forefront during the election campaign as a clear instance of "Election Interference." The former President expressed discontent with the recent court ruling, granting a mere two-month extension for his trial. He characterized the judge as "biased" and "Trump Hating," suggesting that the timing of the trial's alignment with Super Tuesday was a calculated maneuver by a "corrupt government." Trump concluded his tweets with a resolute proclamation: "I will APPEAL!" He remains a potent voice in American politics, unhesitatingly challenging the establishment and voicing his concerns. Judge Chutkan's ruling follows Special Counsel Jack Smith's inquiry into Trump's potential involvement in the January 6, 2021 Capitol riot and alleged interference in the 2020 election outcome. On August 1, Trump faced four federal indictments stemming from Smith's January 6 investigation. These charges encompass conspiracy to defraud the United States, plotting to obstruct an official proceeding, obstructing and attempting to obstruct an official process, and conspiracy against rights. Trump vehemently denied all allegations, asserting his innocence. Initially, Trump's defense team proposed an April 2026 trial start date, well after the results of the 2024 presidential election would be determined. Nonetheless, Judge Chutkan firmly rejected this request, stating, "I can tell you right now you are not getting two years. This case is not going to trial in 2026." "I don't doubt for a minute that you have been working diligently, but you and I have a very different estimate of what time is needed to prepare for this case," Chutkan remarked. "Discovery in 2023 is not sitting with boxes in a warehouse... We both know the first cut is reviewed by electronic searches," Chutkan continued, highlighting that "no one's sitting there going page by page." "Mr. Trump has been competently represented by experienced counsel throughout the entire duration of this investigation. His indictment is not a surprise... Mr. Trump's legal counsel has been aware of this impending action for a considerable period, and any capable, zealous defense counsel wouldn't simply wait for an indictment." The judge's verdict closely aligns with the government's initial proposition for a January 2, 2024 trial commencement, suggesting a trial duration of around four to six weeks. The trial's implications for the GOP and the broader political landscape cannot be underestimated. Given Trump's prominent standing as a leading candidate in the GOP presidential field, the timing of the trial is certain to be a pivotal focal point. WATCH: Nevada Rangers Provide A Rude Awakening To Climate Protesters [Upgrade to paid]( If you enjoy our work please consider subscribing, this will allow you to read the premium articles. The Pyramid Lake Paiute Tribal Police Department Rangers in Nevada efficiently dealt with a roadblock established by climate change activists along the route to the annual Burning Man festival. This incident occurred last Sunday and involved a group of climate activists, affiliated with the Seven Circles organization, attempting to disrupt traffic flow to the iconic event. The activists, part of the Seven Circles group, had obstructed the road, causing a significant traffic jam. However, videos shared on social media by FreedomNews.tv showed that the rangers were not interested in extended negotiations. Displaying a clear and efficient approach, they decisively drove through the blockade. The videos captured the moment when the roadblock was dismantled and documented the subsequent responses of the protestors. Faced with the rangers' intervention, the activists appeared to lose their resolve and were instructed to lie down on the ground. Following the events, the protestors were charged with trespassing on tribal land, as reported by the New York Post. The blockade not only inconvenienced festival attendees but also led to tense interactions between drivers and protestors. In one particularly charged moment, a female protestor, who had chained herself to a trailer obstructing the road, exclaimed, "Hey, you're hurting me." A man attempting to remove the barrier retorted, "Well, you chained yourself to it." Seven Circles explained that their protest aimed to draw attention to "capitalism's failure to address the ecological breakdown caused by climate change" and to voice their objection against the "appropriation of Burning Man by affluent individuals who do not uphold the stated values of the event." However, for many observers, the swift and effective response from the Nevada Rangers was a reassuring sight. You're currently a free subscriber to [John’s Substack](.
