The federal judge presiding over Donald Trump’s classified documents case on Friday temporarily paused a series of significant pre-trial deadlines pertaining to prosecutors’ sharing of sensitive materials that the former president is entitled to while building his defense, The Messenger reports.

U.S. District Court Judge Aileen Cannon authorized a paperless order delaying the deadlines she’d previously set for October 2023 through May 2024, when the trial for Trump and his three co-defendants in the case is scheduled to start in Fort Pierce, Florida.

      There’s getting the joke, and then there’s thinking it should have been posted in the first place.
