The judge approved the trial date for Kenneth Chesebro only, specifying that the accelerated timeline for the trial and pretrial proceedings "do[es] not apply to any co-defendant."

This seemed to be popular information when I posted it (ahem) “elsewhere”. Thought it might be welcome to have here.

Other grand juries, such as for the documents at Bedminster, have not been announced.

The E. Jean Carroll trial for sexual assault and defamation where Trump was found liable and ordered to pay $5 million before immediately defaming her again resulting in a demand for $10 million is not listed as it’s a civil case and not a crimimal one. That trial date is currently set for January 15th, the same day as the Iowa caucus.

    This, IMO, is the big development of the day. I have no doubt that having to do a mugshot has wounded Trump’s ego (which could lead to some ill-advised tweeting), but in the long run, Chesebro going to trial in two months will do more damage. The pool of 19 defendants is going to keep fracturing. I’m guessing that those who can’t afford the legal fees of a lengthy defense won’t move to sever their cases. With a trial coming up so soon, they’ll be more motivated to flip. So it’s quickly becoming a game of who squeals first.
