Judge Aileen Cannon on Thursday denied one of Trump’s two motions debated today to dismiss the classified documents case.

President Trump on Thursday appeared in federal court in Florida for a hearing on two motions to dismiss Jack Smith’s classified documents case – one motion was based on Jack Smith’s “unconstitutionally vague” use of the Espionage Act – the other motion argued Trump is protected under the Presidential Records Act.
